Brightness sensor
You can use the collected values of the brightness sensor
for controlling other Homematic IP devices. For exam-
ple, your shutters can be moved down in case of strong
sunlight in connection with a Homematic IP Shutter Ac-
tuator. Or your awning is extended in case of sunshine
offering sun protection while you are on the terrace.
The detected brightness of the brightness sensor is
displayed in the Homematic IP app on a scale from
0-100,000. The higher the value, the brighter it is. The
value is used only for orientation and is not equal to
brightness in lux.

General information about radio
operation
Radio transmission is performed on a non-exclusive
transmission path, which means that there is a possibil-
ity of interference occurring. Interference can also be
caused by switching operations, electrical motors or de-
fective electrical devices.
The range of transmission within buildings can differ
greatly from that available in the open air. Besides the
transmitting power and the reception characteristics
of the receiver, environmental factors such as hu-
midity in the vicinity have an important role to play, as
do on-site structural/screening conditions.
