Overview
Wireless motion sensors use an infrared sensing technology to accurately detect movements made by people/animals within 16.4 ft (5 m) range. User customization allows you to receive notifications by SMS text or email the instant motion is detected.
How They Work
- The sensor measures motion & occupancy data using its integrated sensing element at configurable intervals.
- Readings are transmitted wirelessly to the UpKeep Edge gateway via the 900 MHz protocol, with Encrypt-RF security.
- UpKeep Edge processes incoming data in real time, comparing readings against user-defined alert thresholds.
- When thresholds are breached, instant notifications are sent via text, email, or phone call to designated team members.
- All data is logged for historical trending, compliance reporting, and predictive maintenance analysis.
Applications
- Occupancy-based lighting
- Security motion detection
- Room utilization tracking
- Restroom service alerts

Questions about this sensor
- What does the Enterprise - Infrared Motion Sensor measure?
- Wireless motion sensors use an infrared sensing technology to accurately detect movements made by people/animals within 16.4 ft (5 m) range. User customization allows you to receive notifications by SMS text or email the instant motion is detected.
- Where is the Enterprise - Infrared Motion Sensor typically installed?
- Common placements include occupancy-based lighting, security motion detection, room utilization tracking. It uses an AA-battery enclosure, which trades a little size for the longest battery life in the range.
- What does it need to work?
- An UpKeep Edge gateway within about 1,200 ft. One gateway supports 50 or more sensors, and readings reach UpKeep over the gateway's cellular, Ethernet, or Modbus connection.
- What happens when a reading is out of range?
- UpKeep opens a work order against the asset and notifies the assigned technician. You set the thresholds for each motion & occupancy sensor individually.
