Detecting Server and NAS as occupied

So i live in an apartment and have my server, NAS and networking in my living room. and the sensor is picking up at least the server and my Synology NAS as occupants in the room. Now except for zones i Have NO clue as to how I'll go about fixing that

Please have in mind that the setup here is because when i placed it where i wanted it to go I saw it was showing occupancy when i wasn't in the room. So i started to move it around by hand and then switch the distance to 1m as max range, and then started to hunt the offender down.

then i added it onto a tripod and started to "scan" the room from side to side in that area and it will detect my server and nas, and i'm not 100% sure about this but possibly also my SkyConnect dongle

EDIT: Could it be the fans in both devices?

1 is NAS, 2 is server :)

NAS is running

NAS is OFF

NAS turned around so the fan is pointing into the wall behind the tv and the sensor doesn't pick up the NAS anymore

I "Fixed" it by selecting another location in the room where it cannot see the fans of any of my PCs.
But it's something to be aware off

I can see that in your wiki you actually notes that it can detect fans inside PC and such, so I will close this issue
