Aqara Door & Window Sensor

1. Line up the primary sensor and the magnet according to the mounting line as shown in the user manual. Attach the primary sensor to the fixed surface and the magnet to the surface that will be opened;
2. The distance between the primary sensor and the magnet should be less than 22mm;
3. The exact position can vary, but ensure that the primary sensor and the magnet are installed in alignment.
4. Because of the complex nature of an indoor environment, adjusting the position of the sensor hub with the Door and Window Sensor can improve the overall result.
5. Be sure to avoid installing sensors on metal surfaces because of the adverse effect this can have on the signal.

No, the Aqara Door and Window Sensor must work with a Hub.

In a complex indoor environment, This distance will need to be reduced if there is a wall between them to ensure good connectivity. But in general, the effective range is 22mm.

1. Aqara Door and Window Sensor can be installed on the door or window to detect door and window status.
2. Works with other smart devices. If it detects that door/window opens or closes, it triggers other devices to turn on or off home appliances or to take other actions.

Yes, absolutely.

1. Push in and hold the reset hole on the device for 3 seconds. The indicator will flash 3 times before resetting to factory settings.
2. If a sensor needs to be paired with another sensor hub, it will need to be reset before the new pairing will succeed.

That’s easy!

Turn the magnet 90 degrees. It is better to install the sensor on a fixed door frame. Attaching the small magnet to the door is the best way to protect the sensor. 

Although the primary Door and Window Sensor should be less than 22mm from the magnet, they should not be installed too close together to avoid contact and damage that may occur.
