1. General
The Nexmosphere XT-EF Series offers E-field sensors in various sizes which are able to detect touchless input from the
user. This document provides explanation of the available functionalities and instructions on how to install and integrate the
sensor into your digital signage installation.
The information in this document is created for users who are familiar with the Nexmosphere API and are able to control a
basic setup with a Nexmosphere API controller. If this is not the case yet, please read the general documentation on the
Nexmosphere serial API first.
2. Product overview
The XT-EF Series consists out of 4 products:
XT-EF30
All XT-EF sensors feature AirButton detection which will trigger whenever a person's hand either enters or leaves the sensor's
detection field. The XT-EF630, XT-EF650 and XT-EF680 also offer AirGesture detection which includes detecting AirSwipes
and AirWheels. The detection range of the sensors varies with the size.

    The information in this document is created for users who are familiar with the Nexmosphere API and are able to control a basic setup with a Nexmosphere API controller. If this is not the case yet, please read the general documentation on the Nexmosphere serial API first.
  • Page 2: Functionality And Api Commands

    3.1 - AirButton The XT-EF Series sensors can detect when a hand is placed above the sensor (both far and near) as well as when it leaves the detection field. The API output for these triggers is as follows:...

    PRODUCT MANUAL | XT-EF SERIES AIR GESTURE SENSOR 3.3 - AirWheel The XT-EF Series can detect circular gestures ("AirWheels") Air Wheel Clockwise within the detection field of the sensor. The output for AirWheel detection can be set to two different modes: "incremental"...
  • Page 5: Installation Requirements And Guidelines

    Grounding The XT-EF Series sensors transceives an electrical field and measures changes within that field. Based on these changes, it can detect AirButton and AirGesture input. In order for the electrical field to remain stable, the sensor needs to be grounded.
  • Page 6 4.3 Hardware integration guidelines Top panel material The XT-EF Series sensor can be installed behind any non-metal top panel, creating a completely invisible solution. The maximum recommended thickness for the XT-EF30, XT-EF630 and XT-EF650 is 22mm for acrylic or glass, and 18mm for wood.
  • Page 7 PRODUCT MANUAL | XT-EF SERIES AIR GESTURE SENSOR Double glazing The XT-EF sensors do not work behind most types of double glazing used to insulate indoor environments from outdoor environments (e.g. double glazing used in windows or doors at store fronts). The reason for this is that most modern types of double glass have a very thin invisible metal foil inside to reflect heat.
  • Page 8 PRODUCT MANUAL | XT-EF SERIES AIR GESTURE SENSOR Positioning of sensor The positioning of the sensor (height, angle and orientation) has a significant impact on how a person executes the AirGestures and -as a results- how well the XT-EF sensor is able to detect those gestures. Although we always recommend to test what works best for your application, below are some general guidelines as reference.
  • Page 9 PRODUCT MANUAL | XT-EF SERIES AIR GESTURE SENSOR 5 - Settings The XT-EF Series has multiple settings which determine the behaviour and output of the sensor. The settings can be adjusted by sending X-talk setting commands via the API. Setting 1: Status LED behaviour...
  • Page 10 PRODUCT MANUAL | XT-EF SERIES AIR GESTURE SENSOR 6. Quick test In order to test if the XT-EF sensor is installed correctly, please follow the test procedure below: Step 1 - Setup Grounded DC Power supply First, connect the XT-EF sensor to an Xperience controller.
