Function
The HomeMatic wireless infrared motion detector
outdoor is designed primarily for use in applications
outside the home. It is particularly effective in saving
energy, reducing costs and maximising comfort.
Whenever the HomeMatic wireless infrared motion
detector outdoor registers a moving heat source (e.g.
a person or an animal) in its detection range and
ambient brightness is below the set threshold, it swit-
ches on the connected load (e.g. the outdoor lighting)
automatically. When the person leaves the detection
range, the HomeMatic wireless infrared motion detec-
tor outdoor disconnects the load from the mains power
supply again after a period of time preset by you. If
there is any movement in the detection range during
the on phase, the set time restarts from zero.
Decoding circuitry converts the detected status into
HomeMatic radio commands.
