Wireless motion detector, Zigbee®
Description
The wireless motion detector can be used to control other switching contacts. For example, when motion is detected, you can control the contact of another connectable switch, dimmer or motor control.
Since the motion detector is powered by a button battery and is supplied with a self-adhesive mounting plate, it can be easily attached anywhere.
This motion detector can only be used in combination with the wireless smart hub for Niko Home Control (552-0000x). This makes it possible to configure additional functionalities with the Niko Home Control programming software.

Installation



Also respect a minimum distance of 2 m between a Zigbee® device (including the smart hub) and another RF transmitter (for example a Wi-Fi device) or devices such as motors, pumps, electronic LED transformers, solar panel inverters, home battery storage ...
Dismantling


Upgrading the connected single switch
When an upgrade is available, you are informed in the latest version of the Niko Home Control programming software or Niko Home app. An OTA upgrade is not indicated via the feedback LEDs. Only when the connection to the smart hub or wireless bridge is interrupted during the OTA request, a red LED will blink briefly.
All Zigbee® devices are automatically upgraded one by one. The upgrade of Zigbee® devices starts within max. 6 hours after the smart hub or connected controller has been upgraded.
When an upgrade fails, you are notified in the Niko Home Control programming software or Niko Home app. The Zigbee® device remains operational with the previously installed software version.
If you use Zigbee® devices of Niko in other systems that are not connected to Niko Home Control, you can upgrade the firmware yourself via https://download.nikogroup.eu/nhc2/release/upgrades/ota/index.json
Troubleshooting
Problem | Possible cause | Proposed solution |
|---|---|---|
The detector does not pick up movement | Battery empty (app error message) | Replace the battery |
The detector is out of range | Bring the smart hub closer to the detector | |
The detector is not configured | Press the reset button and reconfigure within 3 minutes | |
The detector is mounted upside down | Mount the detector correctly | |
The red LED does not blink and the detector does not pick up movement | The detector was not configured or was configured for another system | Press the reset button and (re)configure the detector |
The motion detector enters awake mode for one second after motion detection.
This value is hardcoded in the motion detector and cannot be changed. When the motion detector is not “awake”, it is in sleep mode to preserve battery life.
If the detector is in sleep mode, you may receive a notification 'Cannot be reached' on the diagnostics page of the Niko Home Control programming software.
