ELAN SENSE AUTOMATION SENSORS
Seven ways to add reliable power management and automation
features to any system!
ELAN SENSE Automation Sensors detect the state of a device and communicate that state
to the HC series controllers or to another system via the SIM2. ELAN SENSE sensors include
the features you need most, like adjustable sensitivity and delay. When the project must
absolutely work a certain way, these are the sensors you can count on.
LIGHT/LED SENSOR
ORDER NO. LTSENSOR
Detects AC current in power
cords, as well as the AC magnetic
fields generated by motors, trans-
formers, TV’s, etc. The CRSENSOR
has a unique clamping device that
accommodates a wide variety of
different sized AC power cords.
The base of the clamping device
is removable when magnetic field
detection is desired. Features
adjustable sensitivity and delay.
CURRENT/MAGNETIC FIELD SENSOR
ORDER NO. CRSENSOR
AUDIO SENSOR
ORDER NO. AUDSENSOR
Detects line-level audio. Female-
to-male RCA adaptor connects
in-line between either the left or
right line-level audio output of
any source and an A/V controller
or receiver. Features adjustable
sensitivity and delay.
Detects TOSLINK (optional) signals,
LEDs and even the displays of many
A/V components. Red and Green
filters (included) allow for the detec-
tion of bi-color LEDs found on many
components. Features adjustable
sensitivity and delay.
CONTACT CLOSURE SENSOR
ORDER NO. CTSENSOR
Detects dry contact relay closures.
A two-terminal barrier strip is used
to connect + and – conductors
from relay devices.
Detects composite video signals.
Female-to-male RCA adaptor
connects in-line between the
component (Y, Pr, or Pb) or
composite video output of any
source or its destination. Features
adjustable sensitivity and delay.
VIDEO SENSOR
ORDER NO. VIDSENSOR
SIM2 SENSOR INTEGRATION MODULE
ORDER NO. SIM2
The SIM2 is a low-cost, simple automation solution
designed to work seamlessly with ELAN SENSE
Sensors. The SIM2 functions as a stand-alone four
sensor input/two relay output module that provides
dry contact closure or 12V output in response to
sensor input status. Built-in relays respond to sensor
triggers differently based on conditional logic “and
/ or” dip switch settings on the unit. This allows
any ELAN SENSE automation sensor, or standard
motion, driveway or door/window sensor, to intel-
ligently trigger relays on the SIM2 based on the dip
switch settings. The SIM2 is ideal for Home Theater
automation applications, or any application that
requires the use of automated triggering through
the use of sensors.
