This Z-Wave Plus sensor detects the vibrations, examples of it use include:
- intruder trying to break into a window/door
- someone opening a drawer
- movement of an object
The sensitivity can also be adjusted, so the system can be configured to ignore spurious vibrations, such as those caused by a passing car with a too-loud stereo system.
It supports both, Shock Sensor capability and also a Vibration/Acceleration Sensor capability, for use with Vera.
This device handler supports the following features:
- Reading the following sensors
- Shock/Acceleration

- Tamper
NOTE:
- The vibration sensitivity can be adjusted by opening the unit cover and using a screwdriver to adjust the
+
shaped white round knob. Turning it clockwise increases sensitivity, turning it anti-clockwise reduces sensitivity
