1. Introducció
The Aeotec Multi-Sensor 5 ZW074-C is a versatile Z-Wave Plus device designed to enhance your smart home environment. This advanced sensor integrates four key detection capabilities into a single compact unit: motion, temperature, humidity, and ambient light. It is engineered to provide accurate environmental data and trigger automated actions within your Z-Wave network, supporting up to 6 other Z-Wave devices upon motion detection.
With its IP42 rating, the Multi-Sensor 5 is suitable for both indoor and sheltered outdoor installations, offering flexibility in placement. It features the latest 500 series Z-Wave chip, providing improved range and communication speed compared to previous generations. This manual will guide you through the setup, operation, and maintenance of your Multi-Sensor 5.

To remove the Multi-Sensor 5 from your Z-Wave network:
- Place your Z-Wave controller into exclusion (unpairing) mode.
- Bring the Multi-Sensor 5 close to your Z-Wave controller.
- Press the inclusion/exclusion button on the Multi-Sensor 5 once. The LED indicator will flash to confirm exclusion mode.
- Once successfully excluded, the LED will stop flashing, and your controller should confirm the device's removal.
3. Funcionament del dispositiu
The Aeotec Multi-Sensor 5 provides real-time data for various environmental parameters.
3.1. Sensor Functions
- Sensor de moviment: Detects movement within a range of 3 to 5 meters. Upon detection, it can trigger alerts or actions configured in your Z-Wave controller.
- Sensor de temperatura: Measures ambient temperature from -10°C to 50°C with an accuracy of ±1°C.
- Sensor d'humitat: Measures relative humidity from 20% to 80% with an accuracy of ±5%.
- Sensor de llum: Measures ambient light intensity from 0 to 1000 LUX.
Sensor data is reported to your Z-Wave controller, allowing for automation rules, historical logging, and remote monitoring.
3.2. Indicador LED
The LED indicator provides visual feedback on the sensor's status:
- Parpellejant: Indicates inclusion/exclusion mode or network activity.
- Sòlid: May indicate a specific status or configuration, refer to your Z-Wave controller's interface for detailed interpretations.
3.3. Configuració avançada
Many Z-Wave controllers allow for advanced configuration of the Multi-Sensor 5, including:
- Adjusting motion sensor sensitivity.
- Setting reporting intervals for temperature, humidity, and light.
- Configuring association groups for direct communication with other Z-Wave devices.
Consult your Z-Wave controller's documentation for details on accessing and modifying these parameters.
