- Motion Sensor Tree
The Loxone Motion Detector Tree is used to detect motion and brightness in a room.
Note: The Motion Sensor Tree is no longer available and has been replaced by the Presence Sensor Tree.
| The Motion Sensor can also detect some pets. Although the sensitivity of the sensor can be reduced, there is no dedicated technology that excludes the detection of pets. |

Mounting↑¶

| For motion to be detected accurately, correct placement of the Motion Sensor on the ceiling is essential. The following drawings can assist with this: |


Connect the power supply (orange/white terminal) and Tree communication wires (green/white terminals). To complete the installation, attach the Presence Sensor to the mounting ring. Shortly after power-up, the status LED will blink orange if the wiring is correct (connection to Tree Extension and Miniserver is established).
Commissioning↑¶
Then follow the pairing procedure on the Tree Interface.
Sensors↑¶
| Summary | Description | Unit | Value Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Motion | Input is active when motion is detected | - | 0/1 |
| Brightness | Provides the measured value of the current brightness | Lx | 0...188 |
Diagnostic Inputs↑¶
| Summary | Description | Unit | Value Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Online Status Motion Sensor Tree | Indicates whether the device can be reached by the Miniserver. Diagnostics for Air devices Diagnostics for Tree devices Diagnostics for Extensions | Digital | 0/1 |
Properties↑¶
| Summary | Description | Unit | Value Range | Default Value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Monitor online status | If checked, you will be notified via System Status or the Mailer if the device is no longer available or goes offline. | - | - | - |
| Serial number | Specifies the serial number of the device. | - | - | - |
| Sensitivity | Effects the sensitivity and thus also the distance over which motion can be sensed | - | - | - |
| Overrun time motion | The 'Motion (Mo)' input remains active following the last detected motion for the set time. A higher value means less packets have to be sent via Tree and Link. If the motion detector is used for the alarm system, the time is automatically set to 3 seconds when the alarm system is armed. | s | 3...900 | - |
Safety Instructions↑¶
The installation must be carried out by a qualified technician in accordance with all applicable regulations.
Ensure that the device is protected from water.
