Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi SHDWWISEN Wireless Door-Window Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi SHDWWISEN is a compact wireless door and window sensor designed for Smart Dupline building and home automation applications. Using a battery-powered reed contact and separate magnet, the sensor detects the opening and closing of doors, windows, garage doors and similar access points without requiring hard-wired signal cabling.
When the sensor body and magnet are separated, the SHDWWISEN transmits a wireless signal to the associated Smart Dupline system. Wireless communication is based on IEEE 802.15.4 at 2.4 GHz, with Carlo Gavazzi specifying a wireless distance of up to 100 m. The reed contact operates with a maximum sensor-to-magnet separation of 25 mm, although this distance can be reduced if the magnet is not correctly aligned.
The SHDWWISEN is powered by a replaceable 3 V CR2450 lithium button battery, supplied with the sensor, with battery life of up to 5 years depending on operating conditions. It features standby operation to conserve battery power, red and blue LED indicators and surface mounting using double-sided tape or screws. The sensor is programmable using the Carlo Gavazzi SH tool and is designed to operate with a compatible Smart Dupline wireless base module.

Wireless Door and Window Monitoring with Smart Dupline
Wireless magnetic sensors provide a simple method of determining whether a door, window or similar opening is open or closed. The SHDWWISEN consists of a sensor body containing a reed contact and a separate magnet. When the two parts move apart as the door or window opens, the change is detected and a wireless message is transmitted to the Smart Dupline automation system.
This approach makes the SHDWWISEN particularly useful where running additional control wiring would be difficult or undesirable. The sensor can provide opening and closing information for automation scenes, alarm functions and building-control logic, while its battery-powered design and surface mounting simplify installation on suitable doors, windows and other moving access points.
Typical Applications
- Door opening and closing detection.
- Window status monitoring.
- Smart home and building automation.
- Alarm and security system inputs.
- Garage door and gate position monitoring.
- Automatic lighting and HVAC control based on window or door status.
- Building automation scenes and control logic.
- Smart Dupline wireless installations.
