Panasonic Smart Home Human Motion Sensor KX-HJS200-W User Manual

1. Introduction

The Panasonic Smart Home Human Motion Sensor KX-HJS200-W is a component of the Panasonic Smart Home System, designed to enhance home security and monitoring. This sensor detects movement by identifying changes in infrared radiation emitted by objects with temperature, such as people or animals. When motion is detected, the sensor can send notifications to your smartphone via the dedicated 'Home Network' application, provided it is connected to a home unit and your wireless LAN environment.

This manual provides essential information for the proper setup, operation, and maintenance of your KX-HJS200-W Human Motion Sensor.

3.3 Pairing with Home Unit

Follow the instructions provided with your Panasonic Smart Home System Home Unit and the 'Home Network' application to pair the KX-HJS200-W sensor. Up to 50 sensors (including door/window sensors) can be registered to a single home unit.

3.4 Mounting the Sensor

The sensor can be wall-mounted using the included wall mount adapter and screws. Choose a location where the sensor has an unobstructed view of the area you wish to monitor. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources that may cause false detections.

4. Operating the Sensor

4.1 Sensitivity Adjustment

The sensor features a sensitivity switch on its side, allowing you to adjust its detection range. Set it to 'High Sensitivity' for broader detection or 'Low Sensitivity' to reduce false alarms in busy areas.

4.2 Receiving Notifications

Once paired and configured through the 'Home Network' app, the sensor will send notifications to your smartphone when motion is detected. Notifications can be configured to activate during 'Home' or 'Away' security modes. When connecting from outside your home, standard smartphone data charges may apply.

The system can also be configured to record approximately 30 seconds of video from a connected camera when the motion sensor is triggered.
