Automate Motion Sensor

The Automate Motion Sensor is a smart safety device designed to protect motorised outdoor awnings from strong wind or sudden movement. Mounted directly to the awning’s terminal bar, it monitors for excessive motion and triggers an automatic retraction when thresholds are exceeded — reducing the risk of fabric tears, frame damage, or unsafe conditions.

Compatible with Automate external motors (15Nm and above), the sensor communicates via ARC 433 MHz bi-directional radio for reliable real-time feedback. With nine adjustable sensitivity levels, it can be tailored to suit exposed coastal balconies, shaded patios, or windy courtyards. It also includes low battery alerts and a fail-safe disconnection feature, ensuring performance even when communication is lost.

Whether you’re protecting a commercial alfresco system or your backyard awning, the Automate Motion Sensor adds an extra layer of security to your setup.
