A small KNX ceiling presence detector that also measures temperature, humidity and light, rated IP44 for indoor and outdoor ceilings. Home Assistant reads its presence and room readings through the KNX integration.
A 53.5 mm detector with three sensors covering 360°. It works as a presence detector that catches small movements at a desk, as a motion detector for hallways, or as an alarm sensor. It also measures brightness, temperature and humidity, so one ceiling device covers a room’s climate readings too.
It clips into suspended ceilings, with sets for flush boxes and surface mounting, and is rated IP44 for indoor and outdoor ceilings. Several detectors can be linked to cover a larger area.
It is programmed in ETS first. In Home Assistant, its presence output is added as a binary sensor and its readings as sensors in the KNX panel, using the group addresses from the ETS project.
Recipes using this device
Presence Room Lighting
Installs a Home Assistant automation that keeps a room's lights on for as long as an mmWave presence sensor sees someone in it, and switches them off shortly after the room empties. Add a light sensor to run only after dark, and dimmable lights that come up softly.
Presence Thermostat Setback
Installs a Home Assistant automation that eases your thermostat into an energy-saving preset once everyone has left, and brings it back to a comfort preset the moment someone returns. Add extra occupancy sensors and any one of them counts as home.
Recipes that can use it
These recipes are built around other hardware, and pick this device up as an optional extra.
Away Motion Camera Alert
Installs Home Assistant automations that watch for motion while the house is armed and send you a notification with the camera view attached. Add presence sensors to arm and disarm on their own, a siren to sound off, and lights to flash.
Circadian Adaptive Lighting
Installs a Home Assistant automation that walks the colour and brightness of your dimmable lights through the day, cool and bright around midday and warm and low in the evening. It only ever changes lights that are already on, so it never switches a light on by itself.
Door or Window Left Open Alert
Installs a Home Assistant automation that watches your door and window sensors and pushes a notification to your phone when one is left open past a grace period while nobody is home. Add lights and it flashes the room, add a speaker and it announces the warning out loud.
Motion Hallway Light
Installs a Home Assistant automation that turns a hallway or landing light on when motion is seen and off again once the space has been still for a grace period you set. Add a light sensor and it only runs after dark, add a presence sensor and it holds the light while someone lingers.
Shades by Sun and Heat
Installs a Home Assistant automation that closes your shades when the sun climbs high and the day is hot, and opens them again as the sun drops, using Home Assistant's own sun position. Add a light and temperature sensor to hold it to genuinely bright, hot afternoons.
Window Open HVAC Pause
Installs a Home Assistant automation that turns the thermostat off when a window is left open, so you are not heating or cooling the street, and turns it back to the mode it was in once every window is shut. Add door sensors and a temperature sensor for the full picture.
