2 3Sense ManualThank you for buying this extension to your Plugwise system. With the Sense, you can wirelessly measure the temperature and air humidity in a room. In this way, you easily obtain insight into the climate in one or more rooms. The temperature sensor has a range of 0 to 60˚C; the air-humidity sensor has a range of 5 to 95% RH. You can also link switch acons to certain measurement values. This does not require the computer to be le on.This manual describes the installaon of a single Sense, but the same steps can be followed if you want to install mulple Senses at the same me.

6 7Removing SenseIf the Sense will (temporarily) no longer be used, it can be removed from the Plugwise network. ÌStart Source and go to Sengs, Devices. ÌThe list of ‘Non-assigned modules’ is displayed to the right of the screen. Right-click the Sense and then click ‘Delete’. ÌThe Sense will now be ignored by the network. ÌTo also physically remove the Sense from the ceiling, follow the steps as described in secon 2, ‘Aaching the Sense to the wall’, in reverse order. ÌNote: remove the baery. As long as the Sense is not assigned to a network, it will consume more power and the baery will drain more quickly.4.  Advanced useConnecng Sense to another networkAer a Sense has been removed from a network (see the explanaon above), it can be connected to another Plugwise system. To do this, follow the normal installaon procedure.Restarng SenseIn case of problems, the Sense can be restarted. For this purpose, a reset buon can be found on the back of the module, which can be acvated by inserng a long, thin object such as a pin or a paperclip (not a pencil or mechanical pencil, which can break o) in the hole marked ‘Reset’. When the LED light in the casing (on the front of the module) begins to ash, the Sense has restarted.Deleng network sengsYou can also delete all of the sengs saved on the Sense. As a result, the Sense will also forget its posion in the network. To delete all of the sengs, follow the instrucons as described in the secon ‘Restarng Sense’, but keep the reset buon pressed unl the rapid ashing of the LED light stops. This should take about 10 seconds.Firmware updatesWhen a new rmware version is available, the update can be downloaded and sent to the Sense. More informaon on rmware updates is provided in the Source manual. Aer you send the rmware update from Source, press the white wake buon on the top of the front of the Sense. The Sense will then waken temporarily to receive and install the rmware update. 5.  Technical detailsSpecicaonsParameters Min. Nominal Max.
