eWindow Handle for Smart Home ConnectSense eHandles

In a connected home, the ConnectSense eWindow HandleReliably detects break-in attempts at the window and reports them to the home automation box. In addition, the position of the handle (closed, tilt-and-turn, open) and that of the window leaf (closed, open) are detected and reported.

Integrated into a home automation system, the ConnectSense eWindow Handle therefore offers numerous functions in order to control the status of windows, even remotely by receiving notifications on the mobile phone.

Detects break-in attempts at window level

Thanks to a specially developed algorithm, the handle can distinguish between an actual break-in attempt (e.g. a forced window) and an accidental impact (e.g. children playing with a ball who accidentally hit the window with the ball).

As soon as the handle detects an attempted break-in, deterrent measures can be automatically triggered via the home automation box. These actions can be configured individually by the owner via their Smart Home box and can include, for example, lowering the roller shutters, switching on the lighting, triggering the alarm or receiving a "break-in attempt" notification on the phone.

More comfort in a connected home

Independently of the detection of break-in attempts, the ConnectSense eWindow Handle allows configure scenarios that improve energy efficiency and comfort.

The permanent comparison of the position of the handle with that of the window leaf makes it possible to precisely define whether a window is actually open or whether only the handle is in the open position, without the leaf having been moved.

For example, an automatic reduction of heating or air conditioning can be set when the window is open. Another example: automatic closing of roller shutters only when the patio door is closed. Other scenarios are possible, depending on the configuration of the home automation system and personal preferences.
