#PROGRAMMABLE MOTION SENSOR LIGHT SWITCH PC#
You may use your PC or laptop for this.It is the ideal model for installations with long corridors given that it allows installation additional sensors DICROMAT SENSOR +.
It’s an open network and so does not require a password. Open the Wi-Fi settings in your smartphone and connect to the tasmota-xxxx Wi-Fi network.
The firmware will be flashed.Īfter the firmware is flashed, you will need to connect the switch to your Wi-Fi network and configure it. An ESP8266 chip-based microcontroller, such as NodeMCU or D1 Mini.To build a Wi-Fi connected light switch, you will need the following: You can follow our guide on setting up Home Assistant on a Raspberry Pi to quickly get started. The possibilities are endless when combined with home automation software. Similarly, you can use this motion sensor to capture pictures or trigger recording on a Wi-Fi camera as soon as motion is detected. For instance, when the sensor detects motion, Home Assistant can switch on the smart lights installed in a location such as your staircase or washroom. There are many great ways to use a motion sensor in your home. You may also enable notifications that you can receive on your smartphone or via an Echo Dot (Alexa). Use jumper wires to make the connections between the relay module and the PIR sensor as in the diagram below.īuild a Wi-Fi Connected Motion Light SwitchĪ Wi-Fi-based motion sensor can be integrated with a home automation server, such as Home Assistant, to automate or trigger other smart home devices, lights, switches, etc. You'll need to connect the PIR sensor to the relay board and provide a 5V power input, such as via an optional micro USB module. To build a motion-sensing light switch, you will need the following: You will need to tinker with the presets on the PIR sensor to find the sweet spot that fits your needs. You can increase the duration or switch-on time to up to 5 minutes, after which the load (light) will shut down. The PIR sensor module comes with two presets that you can rotate to increase or decrease the sensitivity and time duration. Build a Standalone Motion-Sensing Light SwitchĪ PIR motion sensor such as the HC-SR501 can be used without a microcontroller to switch a relay module on/off to control an AC load for a specific duration, such as a lamp. We will also connect a switch to a smart home network via Wi-Fi. For this guide, we will use a PIR motion sensor to build a motion-sensing light switch that turns on and stays on when motion is detected, and turns off after a certain time when motion stops.
