IWS600-CM is a human presence sensor that can detect movements up to approximately 5 meters away. It is easily integrated into custom systems since values can be obtained via control commands.

About Pyroelectric Infrared Sensors

These sensors detect human bodies across a wide area. Instead of emitting light such as LEDs, the sensor detects the change in infrared radiation caused by moving objects with different temperatures, such as humans. This technology is widely used in applications such as intrusion detection and lights that turn on when someone approaches.

Examples of Control Command Usage

By using the dedicated control command "iws600cm," you can easily retrieve sensor values. Please download the manual for details.

The above command is an example of reading the sensor status from the first IWS600-CM connected to the computer. When executed, the command displays a number every 0.1 seconds. The first two lines (0.2 seconds) display a 0, indicating no detection. From the third line onwards, a 2 is displayed, indicating detection. The output from the iws600cm command can be redirected to other programs for control or logged into a file.

Alternative Model: Virtual Keyboard Type IWS600-KY

As an alternative model of the IWS600-CM, there is the IWS600-KY which operates as a virtual USB keyboard. When a person is detected, it simulates pressing the 'H' key, and when no detection, the 'L' key is pressed. Consider this model if you want further ease of integration with custom programs.
