General special sensor functions

Here you will find the documentation for generic special sensor functions

Special cross-product sensor function

Name	Products
Delta Feature	ALL
Vandalism detection	Apollon-Q, Neptun
Opening detection	Apollon-Q, Neptun
Double Tap	Febris

Function: Delta features

Let's assume that the sensor measures and transmits at 12:00 and is in the default settings (_property_meas_period = 30, _property_alarm_pause = 6). At 12:10 the level changes by 100mm (> _property_alarm_delta). The sensor sends the new fill level at 12:30. If nothing changes all day after 12:30, the sensor transmits at intervals of 3 hours from 12:30 (_property_alarm_pause x _property_meas_period). Measurements are still taken every half hour (property meas_period).

Function: Vandalism detection

The following parameters can be set.

Key	Description	Unite	r/w
vdetect	Activates vandalism detection: 0: Vandalism detection off 1: Vandalism detection on		rw
vdelta	Maximum time that may elapse between two impacts for a vandalism alarm to be triggered after the number of impacts.	sec	rw
vlimit	Number of impacts, of which a maximum of two may be within the impact delta interval for the vandalism alarm to be triggered.		rw
vstren	As soon as the acceleration is greater than the set vstren value, an impact is counted.	mG	rw
vcool	Specifies a period of time in which another vandalism alarm cannot be triggered after a vandalism alarm has been triggered.	min	rw

Function : Opening detection

Key	Description	Unite	r/w
Open Cooldown	Specifies a time period in which a further opening cannot be triggered again after an opening has been triggered (debounces the openings). The last counted opening serves as a reference value.	sec	rw
Open Alarm After	Indicates how long the cover must be open before an alarm is triggered	sec	rw
Open Source	Indicates which source has been selected for opening detection: 0: None (opening alarm deactivated) 1: Accelerometer 2: Hall		rw
Magnetic Field Behaviour	Specifies the operating mode of the Hall sensor: 0: Container is closed when magnet is applied 1: Container is open when magnet is applied 2: Sensor counts an opening when magnet is passed twice		rw
Open Alarm Enable	Activates or deactivates the open alarm: 0: deactivated 1: activated		rw
Property Open Alarm Enable	Specifies whether an alarm is triggered after the Open Alarm After time when the container is open 0: Alarm not active 1: Alarm active

📢 After joining or registering, the sensor waits for the propertyopen_cooldown time until the opening counters are active. These are set to two minutes by default

Apollon-Q Flap opening detection

Flap opening detection is detected by a rotation around the x-axis.

The sensor must be mounted on the flap as follows:

A flap opening detection is detected by opening the flap as shown in the following image:
