Questions & answers
What do I need to use a Hue motion sensor?
Both the indoor and outdoor Hue motion sensors require a Hue Bridge-controlled Philips Hue setup and at least one Philips Hue light (sold separately), as well as the Hue app.
Can I customize how my lights turn on when triggered by a Hue motion sensor?
Yes. You can customize Hue motion sensors to trigger different light settings for different times of the day in the Hue app. For example, you can set a Hue motion sensor to trigger lights to come on to full brightness during the day, but a nightlight setting after bedtime.
Do I need to connect electrical wires to install the motion sensor and outdoor sensor?
No. Hue motion sensors are wireless and battery powered, so you won’t have to worry about any wires. Just install the motion sensor anywhere in or around your home and set it up in the Hue app.
Where should I place my Hue motion sensor?
You can use a Hue motion sensor anywhere in your home that’s within range of your setup. Place the indoor motion sensor anywhere within your home, and use the outdoor motion sensor for outdoor areas. The higher you place your motion sensor, the wider range of motion it can detect.
How many Philips Hue lights can I control with the Philips Hue indoor motion sensor?
A Hue motion sensor can control a single light, up to three Rooms, a Zone, or even your entire smart lighting setup. It’s up to you!
How weatherproof is the outdoor sensor?
The outdoor sensor has an IP54 rating, meaning that it's protected against dust and splashing water and will continue working in most weather conditions.
