Product Description
The Door/Window Sensor helps provide energy savings for an area
by detecting when a door or window opens or closes.
It is a wireless solar-powered sensor that can be used on its own to
detect the open and closed status of entry doors or windows, or
it can be linked with occupancy sensors to more accurately track
when a room is occupied or vacant.
The sensor is easy to install on door and window frames, and virtu-
ally anything indoors that opens and closes.
Features Include:
• Sends wireless message to other devices whenever a door or win-
dow opens or closes
• Harvests ambient solar energy to power the sensor and send wire-
less communication
• Mounts easily on standard doors or windows
• Works with motion sensors to track room occupancy
• Supplemental battery option for extreme low-light conditions

Planning
Take a moment to plan for the sensor’s successful operation and
optimal communication with other system components.
Remove the sensor from its packaging and place it under a strong
light to charge it for installation.
• Ensure the location provides consistent and adequate light
• Install according to the alignment requirements
• Determine which sensor profile is appropriate (when linking with
EnOcean-based In-line Switch, Plug-in Switch or HVAC Setback Mod-
ules (refer to the “Linking” and “Sensor Profiles” sections) - otherwise;
when linking with 3rd party controllers, these profiles aren’t relevant
Consider the construction materials, such as metal and concrete, in
the space and obstacles that may interfere with RF signals

The proximity of the magnet to the sensor is important for proper
detection. The alignment arrows on the sensor and the magnet
must point to each other and the gap between them must not
exceed .25 inch (6.4mm) in any direction.
Alignment Guidelines
gap is 1/4” (6.4mm)
or less
misaligned
arrows
gap is too wide

Installing
1. Based on your requirements, decide where you want to install
the sensor and the magnet. For door installations, locate the
sensor:
• On the knob side of the door jamb, away from hinges.
• At least 1 ft. (30 cm) above the floor to avoid damage.
For window installations, make sure the location does not ex-
pose the sensor to contact with water.
2. Follow the alignment requirements that are described in the
Planning section.
NOTE: For easy access and handling, it is recommends that the
sensor be linked to a transceiver before installing it, see the Link-
ing section.
3. Install the sensor on the interior side of the fixed frame.
A. Remove the mounting
bracket from the sensor.

E. Snap the sensor onto the mounting bracket where the
notches are located.

F. Slide the sensor on the bracket until it snaps into place on
the tab lock.
4. Install the magnet on the moving part of the door or window.
A. Use a screwdriver to press the tab lock and flex the magnet
cover to remove it.

B. The two mounting
holes are exposed.
C. Position the magnet with the proper spacing and alignment,
and then install it with the provided screws.
D. Replace the magnet cover and snap it into place on the tab
lock.
NOTE: For low activity applications, the magnet can be
mounted with double-sided tape (not included).
5. Check the alignment arrows and the distance between the sen-
sor and magnet when the door or window is closed.
TIP: There is a faintly audible click when the sensor and magnet
close and open.
Linking
Two or more EnOcean-based devices can be linked and configured
to provide the desired control. There are two basic types of devices
in the system; transmitters and transceivers.
• Transmit-only: Transmitters are simple energy-harvesting devices
that send RF messages to communicate a condition, level, or state.
Transmitters can only be linked to transceivers.
Examples > Self-powered Light Switches, Occupancy Sensors
• Transmit & Receive: Transceivers are controlling devices that send
as well as receive RF messages. They also process relevant control
logic, and actuate the appropriate outputs (switching a light on or
off for example). Transceivers can be linked with transmitters as well
as other transceivers. A transceiver can have up to 30 devices linked
to it.

The Door/Window Sensor is a Transmit-only Device.
To link the Door/Window Sensor to a transceiver; the transceiver
must first be powered, within wireless range, and set to accepts
links.
Next, the desired transmitter, or another transceiver, is triggered to
send a special link message. The awaiting transceiver receives and
stores the link permanently so the devices can interact to provide a
variety of intelligent control options.
Sensor Profiles
The sensor profile determines how the sensor is used within the sys-
tem, whether it is for occupancy detection, HVAC control, or single
load control. How the sensor interacts with other devices depends
on where it is installed and how it is linked. There are three sensor
profiles.
NOTE: These profiles are supported for linking with EnOcean EISM
(In-line Switch), EPSM (Plug-in Switch), and EHSM (HVAC Setback)
controllers. Consult the manual for the respective controllers to
determine the capabilities of the solution.
Entry Door - for Occupancy Detection
For this profile, the sensor is installed on an entry door and operates
with a motion sensor as follows:
Door Opens
Door Closes
The door/window ajar
timer starts. If the timer
runs out, shutdown mode
is activated on the HVAC
system.
The door/window ajar timer
is reset if all monitored doors
and windows are closed. The
vacancy check timer starts,
if the motion sensor detects
occupancy, normal mode is
activated on the HVAC system.
Window or Patio Door for HVAC Control
For this profile, the sensor is installed on a window or patio door and
operates as follows:
Window Opens
Window Closes
The door/window ajar
timer starts. If the timer
runs out, shutdown mode
is activated on the HVAC
system.
The door/window ajar timer
is reset if all monitored doors
and windows are closed.
Normal mode is activated on
the HVAC system.
Closet Door for Single Load Control
For this profile, the sensor is installed on a closet door and operate
as follows because it is the only linked device:
Door Opens
Door Closes
The switched auto-off
timer starts and the light
turns on. If the timer runs
out the light turns off.
The light turns off.

To Link or Unlink a Sensor
When a Door/Window Sensor is linked, the position of the magnet
indicates to the transceiver which type of sensor profile is being
used.
1. Set the desired transceiver to Accept a Link.
2. Do one of the following according to the desired profile:
A. Entry door for occupancy detection, place the magnet be-
side the sensor (closed position).
B. Window or patio door for HVAC control, move the magnet
way from the sensor (open position).
C. Closet door for single load control, move the magnet away
from the sensor (open position).
3. Press the Link button on the sensor once.
The Set button on the transceiver will
be solid green for 3 seconds.
The device is now linked.
Installing Supplemental Battery (optional)
If the sensor is installed where the light levels are consistently too
low or there are days of darkness, battery power can be used to
supplement the solar energy harvester. Only use a CR1216 battery.
1. Press the tab lock to release the
sensor from the mounting bracket.
2. Slide the sensor about ½” (1 cm) and
remove it from the mounting plate.
3. Insert the battery with the positive
pole (+) up and slide it between the
two contact terminals with your
finger.
WARNING: Ensure the battery is properly oriented. Improper
handling of lithium batteries may result in heat generation,
explosion, or fire.
4. Replace the sensor on the mounting
plate and slide it until it snaps into
place.
5. Open and close the contact to test
for power.
6. There should be a faintly audible
click and a fast LED blink.

Solution Checklist
The sensor does not
generate a wireless
message
• Verify there is a faintly audible click when the con-
tact is closed and opened
• Verify the LED blinks once when the contact is
closed and opened
• Verify the solar cell is charged properly
• Check that the magnet is oriented to the sensor-
properly
• Check that the alignment arrows are not spaced
more than .25 inch (6.4 mm)
The linked device
does not respond to
wireless messages
• Check for environment or range issues. Tip: Re-
orienting the sensor may overcome adverse RF
conditions
• Verify the device is linked
• Check the transceiver connection and the wiring
for errors
• Check if appropriate devices are linked according
to good system planning
