Product Description

Monitor your doors and windows for intrusion using this Z-Wave® Shock Sensor from Monoprice! Z-Wave is an interoperable, two-way RF mesh networking technology used for home automation and security. Battery-powered Z-Wave devices, such as this sensor, "wake up" when triggered and broadcast a Z-Wave alarm signal, which can in turn be used to activate other devices or perform preprogrammed tasks. Any Z-Wave enabled device displaying the Z-Wave logo can be used with Z-Wave devices from other manufacturers. This sensor detects the vibrations made by an intruder trying to break into a window or door When triggered, the sensor sends a wireless Z-Wave alarm signal, which can be used as a simple alarm or as a trigger to activate or perform other functions, such as illuminating a spot light on the subject area. It also has a tamperproof switch, which causes a different alarm signal to be sent when triggered. The sensor's sensitivity can be adjusted, so the system can be configured to ignore spurious vibrations, such as those caused by a passing car with a too-loud stereo system.
