Product Description

Aeotec by Aeon Labs? MultiSensor looks like a motion sensor and it acts like one too. But it?s also so much more. Installing this 1 piece of Z-Wave® technology is the same as installing 6 pieces of Z-Wave technology. Your home control network will immediately understand motion, temperature, humidity, light, Ultraviolet and Vibration readings wherever MultiSensor installed. Those intelligent readings will equate to intelligence automation. And intelligent automation will give you the perfect, smart home.

Installation

Choosing a Location for your MultiSensor

MultiSensor 6 can bring its intelligent readings to many locations of your home. Before deciding on a location, there are some things you should first consider.

MultiSensor 6"s motion sensor uses light and heat readings to determine motion; sudden light and heating changes can impact the sensor"s quality of motion readings. As such, your sensor should not be installed in areas of artificial temperature change. Thus, when selecting a location, avoid placing it beside or near air conditioners, humidifiers, and heaters, and avoid positioning it directly opposite a window or direct sunlight.

If your MultiSensor 6 will be powered by batteries, you should avoid installing it in a location where the temperature can drop below 0°C / 32°F - this is below the batteries" working point. Selecting a location for your sensor also depends on the layout of any area that you want monitored. Whatever the room or area, please ensure that it fits with your sensor"s effective motion sensing range as described in the following diagrams. If installing MultiSensor 6 on a ceiling it can take measurements within a 3 x 3 x 6 metre / 10 x 9 x 18 feet range: 


If installing MultiSensor 6 in a corner where the wall meets the ceiling it can take measurements within a 2.5 x 3.5 x 5 metres / 8 x 11 x 15 feet range:

For optimal performance, your MultiSensor 6 should NOT be mounted directly on or near metal framing or other large metallic objects. Large metal objects may weaken the Z-Wave wireless signal MultiSensor 6 depends on for communication due to the wireless reflective properties of metal. 

Physically install your MultiSensor.

With your MultiSensor 6 now a part of your Z-Wave network and having determined its installation location, it"s time to finish its physical installation. There are 2 ways that your MultiSensor 6 can be mounted on a wall or ceiling. Most simply it can be placed upon a shelf without the need to attach further accessories. You can mount your sensor in a corner or against a wall or ceiling by using the Back-Mount Plate. It"s also possible to embed your MultiSensor 6 within a ceiling or wall using its Recessor accessory (sold separately).

To install your MultiSensor 6:

1. You can affix the Back-Mount Arm by Double-Sided Tape or using the provided KA2.5×20 mm screws.

Tips: We suggest you choose the second method (using screws to affix the Back-Mount Arm) would be more stable.

2. After you have completed the affixing of Back-Mount Arm, you will need to lock the MultiSensor to the Back-Mount Arm by screwing the MultiSensor in.


3. The Back-Mount Arm may be locked at various angles by turning the Friction Lock clockwise and counter-clockwise to respectively tighten or loosen the angle of the arm. You can rotate the Friction Lock to change the measurement area of sensor.


Product Usage

Advanced Functions.

Your MultiSensor has built in battery level detection. It will automatically report its battery level to the associated controller/gateway throughout its life until the battery is fully drained and needs replacing. The battery status will often be displayed in the user interface of the controller/ gateway. When used properly in an optimised Z-Wave network, your MultiSensor can be powered by batteries for 24 months before battery replacement is necessary.

Recommendation: For networks which do not offer a method to display

the battery level of your MultiSensor, it is recommended that the sensor be tested occasionally to ensure that the batteries still hold enough charge to operate. Batteries naturally lose their charge over time.

Outdoor installation.

Please note that when installed outdoors of your home, your MultiSensor should only be relied on for temperature, light, humidity, and ultraviolet readings, where as the motion sensing capabilities should be disabled on your gateway in order to avoid false motion readings. If selecting an outdoor location, it"s important to position your MultiSensor in a sheltered location. It is best if your MultiSensor is not directly exposed to rain, and is important that the humidity venting on your MultiSensor never is.

If you wish to use the Multisensor 6 outdoors, you will need to lower settings, and angle the Multisensor 6 accordingly as all environments will require different solutions or different settings for the motion sensor to work properly. Parameter 4 [1 byte] will determine the sensitivity of the motion sensor from a value range of 0 disabled to 5 max sensitivity (your ability to configure this setting will depend on the gateway used).

It is advised that if you are seeing false motion tracking, run trial and error to determine the best sensitivity from a range of 0 - 5 by going down 1 sensitivity level after every test (first 5, 4, 3, 2, then 1), while setting Parameter 3 [2 byte] to 10 to allow a PIR sensor timeout of 10 seconds after detecting motion to rapidly determine the best settings for motion use outdoors.

 

Testing Health Connectivity.

You can determine the health of your Multisensor 6s connectivity to your gateway using a manual button press, hold, and release function which is indicated by the LED color.

1. Press and hold the Multisensor 6 Action button
2. Wait until the RGB LED turns into a Purple Color
3. Release the Multisensor 6 Action Button

The RGB LED will blink its Purple color while sending ping messages to your gateway, when it has finished, it will blink 1 of 3 colors:

Red = Bad Health
Yellow = Moderate Health
Green = Great Health

Be sure to watch for the blink, as it will only blink once very quickly.
