Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Hawking Technologies HomeRemote Pro Wireless Door/Window Sensor lets you expand and customize your HomeRemote Pro Monitor and Control System to allow you to monitor any door or window in your home. This sensor can assign lights to turn on or off when a door or window is opened. It can even send you a text message or email alert when activity occurs. This easy-to-use plug-and-play sensor helps you keep track of your home when you are away, providing you and your family with security and peace of mind.

The HomeRemote Pro Wireless Door/Window Sensor:
  • Can be used to monitor any door or window
  • Links to send email or text messages when there's activity in your house
  • Offers simple plug-and-play installation


Monitor doors and windows from anywhere using the convenient pro service cell phone interface.


You can set lights to turn on when the sensor detects a door or window opening.
Note: This product includes only a HomeRemote Door/Window Sensor. An installed HomeRemote Pro Internet Gateway (sold separately) is required to use the sensor. An additional monthly subscription fee is required to access all of the features of the sensor. (Click here for a comparison chart between the Home Remote Pro System basic and pro-level services.) Some features of the sensor may also require additional HomeRemote modules.

Additional Sensors Mean Added Security
The HomeRemote Door/Window Sensor lets you monitor doors and windows in your house through the HomeRemote Web interface or via your cell phone. You can use the sensor to monitor any door or window in your home, including garage doors and refrigerators.

With it you can set certain lights to turn on and off when doors or windows are opened, frightening and exposing potential intruders. You can also program it to send you a text message and email alert when it detects activity at your house.

The sensor's long battery life (3 AAA batteries are included) helps ensure your home stays protected while letting you place it anywhere without blocking an outlet or worrying about a power cord. The Pro Door/Window Sensor works with an installed HomeRemote Pro Gateway (HRPG1), HomeRemote Gateway (HRGZ1), or any Z-Wave enabled controller with door/window support.

Quick, Easy Setup
With true plug-and-play setup, the Pro Door/Window Sensor is easy to integrate into your existing HomeRemote Pro System. Simply follow the wizard on the add/remove module page of the HomeRemote Web interface to add a new sensor to your customized system. Then it's just a matter of installing the sensor onto any door or window in your house (installation hardware is included) and testing the connection. No power cords, no special wiring. It's that easy.

How the HomeRemote Pro Monitoring System Works
The HomeRemote Monitoring System lets you monitor your home, secure it from intruders, and control its appliances and power usage via a cell phone or an Internet browser while you're working, at school, or even traveling abroad. You can also use it to monitor your children or pets, or keep tabs on an elderly family member. And business owners can use the system to keep an eye on their premises or employees.

By connecting the Pro Internet Gateway to your Internet router, you'll effectively create a wireless network that "connects" your home to the Internet. And by adding HomeRemote Pro accessories to your home, such as the Pro Door Sensor and Pro Lamp Module, or other HomeRemote Pro-enabled products, such as Electrical Appliance modules and Pro Motion Detectors (sold separately), you'll have the option of remotely controlling your heating and cooling system, lighting, blinds, garage door, and virtually any electrical appliance in your home.

Award-Winning Z-Wave Wireless Technology
At the heart of the HomeRemote Pro System is Z-Wave wireless "mesh" technology, an award-winning wireless standard for home automation. Unlike traditional remote technologies that rely on infrared signals, Z-Wave is not affected by walls or other barriers, and it offers two-way


The comprehensive web interface lets you check on the status of your home and even view real-time video of your premises. View larger.
communication, giving you confirmation that your commands were received and executed. With Z-Wave, the guesswork and finger-crossing is taken out of the equation.

Because each "module" or HomeRemote Pro accessory acts as a repeater that extends the distance of the Z-Wave signals, with a few easily installed and strategically placed HomeRemote Pro accessories, your entire home can be covered in a matter of minutes without any hard-wiring or special installation.

Easy Set Up: No Special Tools or Wiring Required
Setting up a HomeRemote Pro Monitoring System up couldn't be easier. Once you connect the Pro Internet Gateway to your router, you log into the HomeRemote Pro Web site, where you can customize your HomeRemote Pro System by naming the rooms in your home. (You can also personalize your HomeRemote Pro Web page with photos of yourself and other custom touches.) Then it's just a matter of plugging accessories into outlets throughout your home and adding them to your system.

The "installation" of HomeRemote Pro accessories is as easy as plugging in one of the several HomeRemote Pro modules into available electrical outlets. Once the modules, which are about the size of typical home appliance timers, are connected, you simply plug your lamp or appliance into it. The modules let you control appliances remotely (you can schedule them, or turn them on or off on demand), and they will also act as "repeaters" that effectively extend your home's Z-Wave wireless network.

The HomeRemote Door and Window sensor measures 4.75 x 1.2 x 0.75 inches.

What's in the Box
One wireless door/window sensor, one door/window magnet, 3 x AAA batteries, mounting kit, and a user's manual.

4.0 out of 5 stars A little finicky but now reliable, August 11, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Hawking HomeRemote Pro HRDS1 Door/Window Sensor (Personal Computers)
Getting my ZWave system to recognize the door sensor was a little difficult. My first unit I sent back because it did not add to my system. The second unit displayed the same symptoms but in desperation, I repetitively pressed the bind button and... guess what? It did!

I had to custom fit the unit into my existing door molding but NOW.... It works and looks ok. Not as easy as first thought, but what is?

I intend to buy more now knowing the secrets I passed on to you.

I've gotten two of these now and both go through three AAA batteries in a matter of weeks. Hooks up to the network fine.
