Shelly BLU Door/Window ZB (the Device) is a Bluetooth sensor designed to detect the opening and closing of a door or a window. It can also measure the tilt angle of a turn-and-tilt door or window. In addition, it features a light sensor.
Main features
Zigbee 3.0 and Bluetooth 5 LE connectivity, with support for simultaneous Zigbee + Bluetooth operation
Supports BTHome for compatible Bluetooth-based automations and integrations
Long battery life for low-maintenance operation
Door/window inclination angle measurement for detecting tilt/vent positions, not just open/close
Illumination measurement to trigger automations based on ambient light levels
Light commercial: small office buildings, retail stores, restaurants, gas stations
Government / municipal: public buildings and facilities
Educational institutions: universities and colleges
Connectivity
Bluetooth
Zigbee
Modes of operation
Regular mode: The Device broadcasts the current open or closed state, illuminance, and battery status each time the open/closed state changes (door/window opened or closed). If a tilt-and-turn door or window is opened, the Device immediately broadcasts information about the event, the illumination, and the battery status at the time of detection. Two seconds later, it broadcasts tilt angle, illumination, and battery status. Every 8 seconds, the Device checks the tilt angle. If a change is detected, the Device broadcasts the updated angle.
Beacon mode: The Device broadcasts the current open and closed state, illuminance, and battery status every 30 seconds. You can enable Beacon mode in the settings in the Shelly Smart Control settings. For more details, visit the Shelly Smart Control guide.
The battery life may be significantly reduced when the Device is in Beacon mode.
