User Guide
Alarm.com Multisensor
Summary
The Alarm.com Multisensor is a multi-purpose sensing
solution for the connected home, designed to work with a
broadband or cellular automation hub. The Multisensor
can detect door/window status, PIR motion, and
accelerometer activity. Additionally, a push button can be
configured to allow the user to manually trigger
automation rules for other Z-Wave devices connected to
the Hub. The Multisensor can be powered either by two
AAA batteries or by a 5V source via the Power / External
Sensor Port.
Interfaces & Components
Front Button
The face of the Multisensor has a button used for sending
automation signals to Alarm.com. For example, the front
button can be programmed to turn on/off a Z-Wave light.
The button is also used for calibrating the Multisensor
door functionality.
Reset Button
The Reset Button, located beneath a pinhole on the
bottom face of the Multisensor, is used to initiate either
network reset or factory reset (depending on how long it is
pressed).
Status LED
The Status LED indicates the Multisensor’s connection
states via green and red LEDs. See Connection States table
below.
Ring LED
The orange Ring LED provides information to the user
when setting a reference for the door sensor.
Battery Compartment
The battery compartment is accessed by removing the
front-face of the sensor.
Power / External Sensor Port
The USB 3.0 micro B Power / External Sensor Port on the
bottom of the device provides a power jack as an
alternative to using batteries.
Connection States
Device Off
Status LED: Off
The device is not powered and not functioning.
Connected
Status LED: Off
The Multisensor is communicating with the Hub.
Searching for New Network
Status LED: Quickly flashing red
The Multisensor is searching for a new network to join.
Put the Hub into add mode to pair the devices. The
Searching for New Network mode can be returned to at
any time by performing a network or factory reset. This is
the default mode of a sensor that has not been paired with
a hub.
Attempting to Reconnect to Network
Status LED: Slowly flashing red
The Multisensor is searching for a network that it
previously joined. The Multisensor will remain in this state
until it either finds the old network or is factory reset.
Joining Network
Status LED: Solid green for two seconds
The Multisensor is joining a new network or is
reconnecting to a network that it has previously joined.
Actions
Power Device On (Battery)
To turn on the device using battery power, insert two AAA
batteries. The battery compartment is accessed by pulling
off the front face of the Multisensor out and down. Use
AAA batteries only. When removing batteries, take care
not to bend the battery terminals.
Power Device On (5V)
To turn on the device using a 5V power source, connect a
Micro-USB B cable (either versions 2.0 or 3.0) to the left
side of the Power / External Sensor Port located on the
bottom of the Multisensor. Connect the USB cable to any
standard 5V USB AC/DC converter. Batteries do not need
to be inserted, as the device will turn on automatically
after applying power.
Power Device Off
To turn off the Multisensor, remove the batteries and
disconnect the 5V power source, if applicable. The battery
compartment is accessed by pulling off the front face of
the sensor out and down. Take care not to bend the
battery terminals when removing the batteries.
Network Reset
A network reset will remove any connection to an existing
hub, but will not impact the Multisensor’s application

configurations. To perform a network reset, push and
hold the Reset Button on the back of the Multisensor until
the Ring LEDs begin flashing (approximately seven
seconds), then release the button. The Status LED should
begin quickly flashing red. Note that this procedure will
not remove the Multisensor from the Hub. The
Multisensor must be removed from the Hub using the web
portal or by factory resetting the Hub.
Factory Reset
A factory reset will reset the Multisensor’s application
configurations including removing any set reference
points, returning sensitivity settings to default, turning on
all default applications, and turning off non-default
applications. In addition, any network connections will be
reset. To perform a factory reset, push and hold the Reset
Button until the Ring LEDs flash, continue holding until the
LEDs flash again in bursts of two (15 total seconds).
Release the Reset Button. The sensor will reset.
Set Door/Contact Reference (Swinging
Door/Window)
A reference point must be set before the door/contact
sensor application can be used. The reference point must
be taken when the door/window is closed. To take the
reference, close the door/window, and remove the
batteries from the Multisensor. Securely affix the sensor
to the door, and insert the batteries. After the sensor
boots, press and hold the front face button until the Ring
LED illuminates. Release the button gently. The Ring LED
will flash to indicate that the reference has been set. Note
that the reference can only be set within the first 60
seconds after inserting the batteries.
Set Door/Contact Reference (Sliding
Door/Window)
Using the door/contact sensor application with sliding
doors/windows requires the additional use of a magnet.
Securely affix the Multisensor to the door/window and
place the magnet on the molding or doorjamb. Align the
magnet with the three dots on the side of the Multisensor.
The reference point must be taken when the door/window
is closed. Close the door/window, and remove the
batteries from the Multisensor. After the sensor boots,
press and hold the front face button until the Ring LED
illuminates. Release the button gently. The Ring LED will
flash to indicate that the reference has been set. Note
that the reference can only be set within the first 60
seconds after inserting the batteries.
