These actions can be individually configured by the user in the smart home system and can include, for example, lowering the shutters, switching on the lights, an alarm siren or sending a break-in message to the residents via smartphone.<\/p>\n\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"col-12 col-md-3\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-bootstrap-blocks-row row\">\n\t\n\n<div class=\"col-12 col-md-3\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n\t\t\t\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>More convenience for Smart Homes<\/strong><br>Beside the break-in detection feature, users can define scenarios that ensure greater energy efficiency and convenience.<br><br>The constant matching of handle and window position ensures that the system precisely determines whether a window is actually opened or whether only the handle is in the open position without the window having been moved.<br><br>For example, the heating or air conditioning system can be set so that it automatically shuts down when users are ventilating. Or the roller shutters may only close automatically when the patio door is closed. Further scenarios are possible&nbsp;\u2013 depending on the setup of the smart home system and the preferences of the resident.<\/p>\n\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"col-12 col-md-3\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-bootstrap-blocks-row row\">\n\t\n\n<div class=\"col-12 col-md-3\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n\t\t\t\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Highly reliable transmission thanks to standard radio protocol Z-Wave Plus<\/strong><br>The eHandle ConnectSense uses the standard radio protocol Z-Wave&nbsp;Plus. It is therefore equipped with the current \u201cS2\u201d security standard and establishes encrypted communication in combination with a Z-Wave Plus smart home control centre. The handle is downward-compatible and can therefore also be integrated into existing Z-Wave networks.<br>The eHandle ConnectSense for windows can be operated in any Z-Wave network with other certified Z-Wave devices from other manufacturers. Many Z-Wave devices can act as repeaters, increasing the reliability and range of the network.<br>In order to ensure that the signal is transmitted at all times, the eHandle ConnectSense for windows sends a signal when the handle is operated, when an attempted break-in is detected and also at regular intervals (e.g. every hour). The radio signal is transmitted until the smart home control centre confirms receipt.<br>The power supply is low maintenance via a battery with a service life of approximately two years. <\/p>\n\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"col-12 col-md-3\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-bootstrap-blocks-row row\">\n\t\n\n<div class=\"col-12 col-md-3\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n\t\t\t\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Timeless design<\/strong><br>Battery and circuit board are concealed inside the high-quality stainless steel handle.
