Introduction
This manual provides comprehensive instructions for the installation, operation, and maintenance of your eMylo Human Presence Sensor (Model 1). This device utilizes WiFi wave radar technology to detect human presence, motion, and micro-motion in real-time, integrating seamlessly with TUYA and Smart Life applications. Please read this manual thoroughly before using the product to ensure proper functionality and safety.
Product Overview
The eMylo Human Presence Sensor is a smart device designed to enhance home security and automation. It detects human presence, including static and micro-movements, using advanced millimeter-wave radar technology. The sensor operates via 2.4 GHz WiFi and is compatible with the Tuya and Smart Life apps, allowing for remote control, alerts, and scene linkage with other smart devices.
Key Features:
- Real-time Human Presence Detection: Detects both moving and non-moving individuals.
- Millimeter-Wave Radar Technology: Advanced detection of human body presence, static, micro-movement, and movement.
- WiFi Connectivity: No hub required; connects directly to 2.4 GHz WiFi for app control and alerts.
- App Compatibility: Works with Tuya and Smart Life applications for remote management and scene linkage.
- Adjustable Settings: Customizable detection range (0-6m), motion sensitivity, and illuminance value (0-3000 Lux).
- Multiple Scene Modes: Includes Default, Passageway, Living, Bedroom, and Bathroom modes for optimized detection.
- Wired Power: Powered by USB (cable included).

Setup
1. Powering the Sensor
The eMylo Human Presence Sensor is a wired device. Connect the provided USB cable to the sensor and plug it into a suitable USB power adapter (not included). The sensor requires constant power to operate.
2. App Installation and Pairing
- Download the Tuya Smart or Smart Life app from your mobile device's app store (iOS or Android).
- Register or log in to your account.
- Ensure your mobile device is connected to a 2.4 GHz WiFi network. The sensor only supports 2.4 GHz WiFi.
- Open the app and tap the "Add Device" or "+" icon.
- Select the sensor from the list of available devices or use the auto-scan feature.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to connect the sensor to your WiFi network. If pairing fails, press the black button on the back of the sensor until the light blinks, then attempt to re-pair. For best results, perform pairing near your wireless router.
3. Mounting the Sensor
The sensor can be mounted on a ceiling or a side wall. The detection angle is greater than 90 degrees, and the detection distance is 0-6 meters.
- Ceiling Mounting: Ideal for broad area coverage. Mount at a height of approximately 3 meters for optimal 6-meter sensing distance.
- Side Wall Mounting: Can help reduce false detections from small animals. Ensure the radar module faces the desired detection area.

Operating Instructions
Once the sensor is paired and mounted, you can configure its settings and utilize its features through the Tuya Smart or Smart Life app.
1. Detection Settings
The app allows you to customize various detection parameters:
- Detection Range: Set the effective detection distance from 0 to 6 meters.
- Motion Sensitivity: Adjust the sensitivity for detecting general movement.
- Micro-motion Sensitivity: Adjust the sensitivity for detecting subtle movements, such as breathing.
- Illuminance Value: The sensor can report ambient light levels (0 to 3000 Lux).

2. Scene Modes
The sensor offers 5 pre-defined scene modes to optimize detection for different environments:
- Default: General purpose detection.
- Passageway: Optimized for corridors and entryways.
- Living: Suitable for living rooms.
- Bedroom: Designed for bedroom environments, potentially with higher micro-motion sensitivity.
- Bathroom: Specific settings for bathroom use.

3. Smart Linkage
Leverage the Tuya/Smart Life app to create automation routines based on the sensor's detection. For example:
- "If human presence is detected, then turn on smart lights."
- "If no human presence is detected for X minutes, then turn off smart lights."
- "If motion is detected in a specific area, send an alert to your phone."
Note: Smart lights or other linked devices are not included and must be compatible with the Tuya/Smart Life ecosystem.

Maintenance
The eMylo Human Presence Sensor requires minimal maintenance to ensure optimal performance.
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the sensor's surface with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Firmware Updates: Periodically check the Tuya Smart or Smart Life app for available firmware updates to ensure the sensor has the latest features and bug fixes.
- Power Supply: Ensure the sensor remains continuously powered via the USB cable.
