3 Function and device overview
The Homematic IP Passage Sensor is mounted in the door
frame and reliably detects persons passing the corresponding
door. Two infra-red sensors recognise the direction and
register, if someone is leaving or entering the room. In
addition, the passage sensor records the number of persons
that have entered or left the room. Based on this features, the
device can be used in connection with other Homematic IP
components and is therefore e.g. ideal for controlling light or
security functions.
Thanks to the radio communication and battery operation, the
passage sensor is highly flexible where mounting and selecting
a mounting location are concerned. With its compact design
and a detection range of up to 4.5 m as well as a detection
angle of 66° the passage sensor is optimised for installation
in door frames. The device is easy to mount thanks to the
supplied adhesive strips or screws and plugs.
With the integrated tamper contact you are immediately
informed via the app about any unauthorised removal or
manipulation of the passage sensor.
