How the FIBARO Door/Window Sensor 2 Works This sensor consists of two magnetic pieces: The primary Z-Wave sensor A magnetic contact When the door or window opens, the magnet separates from the main sensor, sending an “open” signal wirelessly to your smart home controller. When closed, it reports a “closed” status. These signals can trigger automations, notifications, security alarms, climate adjustments, and more. Smart Home Automations You Can Create The FIBARO Door/Window Sensor 2 is far more than a basic security device. It’s a versatile automation tool that enhances comfort, safety, and energy efficiency. 1. Lighting Automation Use it to: Turn lights on automatically when a door opens Create soft night-light scenes when entering a hallway Switch lights off after closing a pantry or wardrobe door 2. Enhanced Security Monitoring The sensor acts as an intelligent part of your home security system by: Sending instant alerts when doors or windows open unexpectedly Integrating with alarms, cameras, and sirens Providing real-time door/window status for peace of mind 3. Smarter Climate Control Because the sensor includes temperature monitoring, it can: Automatically shut off your heating or air-conditioning when a window opens Ensure HVAC systems only run when all doors and windows are properly closed Help maintain stable temperature zones throughout your home 4. Garage Door Automation Know exactly when your garage door opens, trigger exterior lights automatically, or create notifications for unexpected activity.
