The battery life is usually long because the product does not use more energy-consuming wireless protocols (WiFi, ZigBee), but communicates directly via the Homematic IP system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e With this sensor, you can automate home tasks, such as dimming the blinds when sunlight is strong or turning on the lights when it gets dark. Connection to other technologies (such as WiFi, ZigBee, Z-Wave or Matter) is not supported, so for proper operation, it is recommended to use the Homematic IP central unit, which allows reliable integration into an existing smart home of this brand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Since the sensor monitors light conditions in real time, it is particularly useful in rooms where you want to optimally manage natural or artificial lighting – for example in the living room, children's room or hallways. The built-in light sensor thus helps to improve comfort in the home and at the same time contributes to efficient energy use, as automated devices can only operate when they are really needed. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable cellspacing=\"0\" style=\"-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px; background-color:#ffffff; border-collapse:collapse; border:undefined; box-sizing:border-box; caption-side:bottom; color:#001424; font-family:Lato,Arial,\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"background-color:#ffffff; border-color:inherit; text-align:right; vertical-align:top\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDevice functions\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"background-color:#ffffff; border-color:inherit; vertical-align:top\"\u003e Device type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"background-color:#ffffff; border-color:inherit; vertical-align:top\"\u003e Home automation \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"background-color:#ffffff; border-color:inherit; text-align:right; vertical-align:top\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"background-color:#ffffff; border-color:inherit; vertical-align:top\"\u003e Device type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"background-color:#ffffff; border-color:inherit; vertical-align:top\"\u003e Sensors \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"background-color:#ffffff; border-color:inherit; text-align:right; vertical-align:top\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"background-color:#ffffff; border-color:inherit; vertical-align:top\"\u003e Assembly\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"background-color:#ffffff; border-color:inherit; vertical-align:top\"\u003e wall mounting \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"background-color:#ffffff; border-color:inherit; text-align:right; vertical-align:top\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"background-color:#ffffff; border-color:inherit; vertical-align:top\"\u003e power supply\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"background-color:#ffffff; border-color:inherit; vertical-align:top\"\u003e Batteries (2x AA) \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"background-color:#ffffff; border-color:inherit; text-align:right; vertical-align:top\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eField of application\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"3\" style=\"background-color:#ffffff; border-color:inherit; vertical-align:top\"\u003e Outside \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"background-color:#ffffff; border-color:inherit; text-align:right; vertical-align:top\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ereach\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"background-color:#ffffff; border-color:inherit; vertical-align:top\"\u003e Max.
