3 Function and device overview
The Homematic IP Weather Sensor oers multiple application in outdoor
areas for collecting weather data. The multifunctional sensor oers vari-
ous application possibilities as it collects almost all relevant weather and
climate information:
temperature,
humidity,
wind direction,
wind velocity,
onset of rain,
rainfall volume,
brightness (relative) and
duration of sunshine.
The data is cyclically transmitted by the weather sensor via radio com-
munication to the Homematic IP app. Thus, you will always have the cur-
rent values in sight or you can use the measured data information for
controlling of other Homematic IP devices (e.g. moving shutters up in
case of strong wind or extending awnings during sunshine).
Thanks to the wireless communication and battery operation, the weath-
er sensor can be positioned anywhere and is easy to mount.
