Zooz 4-in-1 Sensor

The Zooz 4-in-1 Sensor, from Zooz, is a ZWave Motion Sensor.

The ability to control the Heating / Cooling of a home is a very important feature of any Control System. One of the key benefits of the Zooz 4-in-1 Sensor is that it helps you schedule and control the temperature of your home, even down to individual rooms.

The Zooz 4-in-1 Sensor can measure the temperature of any room, depending on where you have positioned the Motion Sensor. By sending the current temperature of the locale, the Zooz 4-in-1 Sensor keeps the Control System informed about the current status. By recording this information, the Control System is able to create a profile of the temperature fluctuations in your home, including the time taken to heat the room, and for it to cool.

The Control System and the Zooz 4-in-1 Sensor, together with the historical temperature data makes it easy to accurately manage the heating in your home. When used in conjunction with the external weather conditions, the heating schedule can adapt automatically to the Heating / Cooling pattern, including down to individual room level, to retain the correct temperature for a comfortable environment. If the outside temperature changes suddenly, then the Contol System can make an intelligent decision to increase or decrease the heating to reflect the external conditions.

The Zooz 4-in-1 Sensor allows the Control System to moniter activity within your home, both as a Security Aid, and more generally within the home, such as triggering an alarm during certain times of the day, or by contolling other devices when specific activities are detected by the Zooz 4-in-1 Sensor

By monitiong motion around your home the Zooz 4-in-1 Sensor can be positioned in any location any immediately notify the Contol System if any activity is detected.

Another feature of the Zooz 4-in-1 Sensor is that it allows the Control System to manage the environment of your home, or even your greenhouse.

The Zooz 4-in-1 Sensor sends any changes in the humidity of its environment to the Control System. The Control System can use these values to automatically control other devices such as de-humidifiers, fans etc., so as to keep the relative humidity of the environment at a constant level.

Used in a greenhouse, you can make sure your plants are always happy.

The light levels of the environment in which the Zooz 4-in-1 Sensor is located are sent to the Control System. Using this data, the Control System can dynamically control different lights in your home to always ensure that there is sufficient light available.

The Zooz 4-in-1 Sensor can also be used to detect sunrise and sunset. Rather than using data from an external service, the Control System can rely on data from the luminance sensor to both detect, and by using historical data, predict the sunrise and sunset times for your own home.

An important aspect of any Control System is the power used within the home as a whole, and by individual devices.

The Zooz 4-in-1 Sensor is battery operated device. By sending the battery information to the Control System, the Zooz 4-in-1 Sensor battery state can be monitored automatically. When necessary, the Control System will predict and notify you, ahead-of-time, when the battery in the device will need to be changed.
