About Belkin WeMo Home Automation Switch and Motion Sensor

The Belkin Wi-Fi enabled WeMo Switch and WeMo Motion Kit gives you wireless control of your home appliances and electronics, turning devices of your choice on or off as soon as movement is detected. The sensor plugs into an outlet and detects motion up to 10 feet away. It then sends a wireless signal to the WeMo Switch to turn the connected device either on or off. Download the free WeMo App to any smart device running Android (4.0 and later) or Apple device (iOS 5 or higher) to program a light to turn on when you walk into the house or a fan to turn off when you leave.

Wemo Motion Turns Electronic Devices On/Off
The WeMo Switch and WeMo Motion Kit makes it easy to set schedules for home appliances and electronics and turn devices on and off remotely. The sensor detects movement up to 10 feet away and wirelessly signals the WeMo Switch to turn the connected device on or off, depending on your preference. The sensor's 6-foot cord lets you place it in the optimal position.

Add Multiple Switches and Motion Sensors for Increased Control
The WeMo kit is completely modular, allowing you to control as much or as little of your house as you like. You can add an additional WeMo Switch to provide control of more areas of your home. Additionally, multiple switches can be linked to one sensor--turn on a light and heater or a set of lights at the same time with only one sensor.

To Get Started
Simply plug the sensor's A/C module into an outlet in your home and position the sensor. Next, plug the WeMo Switch into a separate outlet and plug a device like a heater, fan, lamp or stereo into the switch. Next, download the free WeMo App from the Google Play store or the Apple App store to your smartphone or tablet. Connect the WeMo Motion sensor and WeMo Switch to your home Wi-Fi network and follow the onscreen instructions to complete the installation.

WeMo is Completely Modular
The WeMo collection of products are designed to work together via the free WeMo App so that you control and monitor as much or as little of your home as you like. You can easily add additional WeMo products including Smart LED Bulbs, WeMo Switch, WeMo Motion, WeMo Light Switch or WeMo Insight Switches at any time to any room to control and monitor multiple devices or appliances. Program home automation triggers like using your WeMo Motion to turn on your WeMo LED lights when you walk into a room or use the WeMo Insight Switch to learn about the cost savings of installing additional WeMo Smart LED bulbs--the combinations are endless.

Get Creative, Get Organized...WeMo Works with IFTTT
IFTTT is a service that lets you create powerful connections with one simple statement: if this then that. IFTTT works with the WeMo collection of products to connect your home electronics to a whole world of online apps. Get a text or email when the front door opens, turn the lights on when the sun sets...the possibilities are countless. Visit IFTTT and discover all the exciting recipes you can create with WeMo + IFTTT.

IFTTT Connects Your Home with The Web
IFTTT is an amazing new service that puts the internet to work for you. IFTTT lets you create 'Recipes' that connect apps, websites and devices together to perform all kinds of custom tasks for you. Now that WeMo can join in the fun, you can connect your house to the world in useful and very cool ways. What ways? It's totally up to you. For example, you could have a light go on in your front hallway when the sun goes down. Simply use the IFTTT Weather Channel (or any site you like) and when it says the sun has set, have WeMo spring into action.

Using IFTTT with WeMo
IFTTT stands for "if this then that." And that's just how easy it is. It allows WeMo to react when something (anything!) changes on a Website-the weather, a sports score, you name it. Using IFTTT is really simple and intuitive. And what you can do with it is completely amazing.

WeMo Talks Back
As well as listening to the Web through IFTTT, WeMo can talk back, triggering events with online services like Facebook, Evernote, SMS, Google Calendar and many more. This means that you can set up WeMo Motion to send you a text alert when someone enters the house. You could set it next to the cookie jar and send yourself an email reminding you to eat an apple instead!
