4 Function and device overview
The HomeMatic Wireless Door/Window Sensor, opti-
cal detects open and closed windows and doors with
an infra-red sensor (reflection coupler) and transmits
the current status via radio signal to other HomeMatic
devices or the HomeMatic Central Control Unit. Even
while being out and about you can keep a close eye to
your windows and doors.
The device offers different application options and can
be used e.g. with a HomeMatic Wireless Radiator Ther-
mostat for regulation of the room temperature during
ventilation.
