* Remote access and automation need to set up HomePod or Apple TV as a home hub.
Specifications Motion Detection Distance: Up to 22.97 ft Motion Detection Angle: Up to 15° (22.97 ft) ~ 120° (within 6.65 ft) Illuminance Measurement Range: 0 ~ 83,000 lux Weight: Main body 33.8 g (1.19 ounces), base 6.6 g (0.23 ounces) Size: Main body 1.49 × 1.49 × 1.41 inches, base 1.42 × 1.42 × 0.54 inches
Light the Room Up Automatically When Getting Dark
When focusing on reading, we usually ignore the room getting dark. You can set up automation such as when the illuminance is lower than 400 lux, turn on the light. It helps to prevent eyestrain and the reading experience would be better.
Turn on a Gentle Light When Waking Up at Night
When waking up at night, it could help to turn on a subdued night light. You can set up automation such as when the illuminance is lower than 20 lux and a motion is detected, turn on the light on the bedside table or in the bathroom.
Save Energy When Leaving Home
You can set up automation such as when no motion has been detected, turn off the lights, the air conditioner or other electrical appliances. It’ll improve safety and save energy expenses.
Unexpected Entry Alert
You will receive a push notification of a potential threat to your home when it detects an unexpected entry. It helps to improve home security as a vital component.
Supports Thread and Bluetooth
Thread can make your smart home more responsive and robust, while keeping power consumption low.
The product will automatically connect to the home hub via Thread when there is a Thread-enabled home hub at your home, such as HomePod (2nd generation), HomePod mini or Apple TV 4K (2nd generation or 3rd generation with an Ethernet port), or a supported third-party border router. Otherwise, the product will connect to the home hub via Bluetooth.
Wide Detection Range and Adjustable Facing Angle
Qingping Motion & Light Sensor consist of two parts:
1. Main body: it can detect personnel motion and measure illuminance.
2. The base: the main body can be attached to the base; the facing angle can be adjusted.
Access Historical Data From Qingping+ app
* To access the historical data with Qingping+ app, you need a home hub, such as a HomePod or Apple TV.

Troubleshoot common issues
Question 1:Products cannot be added to HomeKit:
Without restoring to factory settings: Press and hold the blue button on the back until the indicator light stays on, wait for the indicator light to go out before adding the device again.The battery is out of power or the battery is installed incorrectly: Short press the blue button on the back and See if the light comes on briefly. If not, it means the battery is out of power or the battery is installed incorrectly.System error occurs: Restart the phone.The HomeKit QR code is posted incorrectly: send an email to the support email address in the User Manual.
Question 2:The product battery life:
The battery life of the device is actually related to the number and frequency of movements it detects. If the device is installed in an area where people frequently come and go, the device’s power consumption will be relatively faster.
Question 3:The product is not responsive:
1. The detection logic of the HomeKit is designed not to report the same state repeatedly, so the device won’t redundantly report the “motion detected” status.Instead, the device needs to report the “no motion detected” status once before reporting “motion detected” again when it detects movement or someone passing by during the next detection.
Note: The duration standard for determining “no motion detected” can be customized and modified in Qingping+ APP.
2. The protective film on the lens has not been removed.
【Sensitively Detects People Passing By】With a built-in PIR, the product accurately detects human movement. You can set up automation in Apple Home to improve your home safety and save energy, such as sending a push notification when an unexpected entry is detected, or turning off the lights when the sensor stops detecting motion. * Remote access and automation need to set up HomePod or Apple TV as a home hub.
【Measures Light Exquisitely, for Setting Up Automation Flexibly】With a high precision light sensor from Texas Instruments, and a multiple-section Fresnel lens built-in, the sensor is compact yet sensitive. The measurement range of illuminance is 0 ~ 83,000 lux. You can set up automation in Apple Home based on specific illuminance values, for example, turn on the light at night when the illuminance is lower than 20 lux and a waking up motion is detected.
【Supports Thread and Bluetooth】Thread can make your smart home more responsive and robust, while keeping power consumption low. To use Thread connection, you need to set up a Thread-enabled home hub, such as HomePod (2nd generation), HomePod mini, Apple TV 4K (2nd generation or 3rd generation with an Ethernet port), or a supported third-party border router.
【Flexible Facing Angle, Easy to Set up】You can easily adjust the product’s facing angle by rotating it on the wall-mounted magnetic base. The motion detection distance is up to 7 meters, and the detection coverage angle is 15° (7 m) to 120° (within 2 m). The mounting is very easy with the supplied stickers. Feel free to put it on the desk, on the wall or even the ceiling; you can also just attach it on the iron surfaces.
【Long Standby Time, Up to 2 Years】The supplied two button cells can work for up to 2 years. * At room temperature, under the condition that 120 motions are detected per day.
