1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
STM 250 is a wireless magnet contact. The radio sensor is powered by a small solar
cell and by that it works absolutely maintenance-free. An integrated energy store
allows operation for several days even in total darkness.
The reed contact housing and the magnet housing are very small. This means that
the EnOcean magnet contact is unobtrusively mountable at every window frame
made of aluminum, plastic or wood.
1.1 Basic Functionality
The STM 250 supervises an integrated reed contact and reports every status change
immediately (open<>closed). In addition a sign of life signal is send every 12 minutes.

1.2 Typical Applications
• STM 250 is designed and qualified for the use in building automation &
installation, not for industrial applications (in cause of ESD protection)
• Typical applications are window, flap and door monitoring
The STM 250 serves the 868 MHz air interface protocol of EnOcean. Together with the serial
interface output of receiver device RCM 120, this product can be easily integrated into
different application-specific system solutions.
The STM device is part of a powerful RF system solution from EnOcean for operation and
control applications. Because the RF transmitters are self-powered (no batteries),
maintenance-free RF systems can be implemented.

Figure 12: STM 250 block diagram
2.1.1 Device power supply: Solar cell and Goldcap energy store
The extremely powerful solar cell has been designed especially for the STM 250 for maximum
unit performance at smallest dimensions. The active solar area is divided into two to provide
independent device power supplies:
a) Small active area: Main power supply
b) Big active area: Gold Cap charging supply
2.1.2 Power control
The power control supervises supply and charging status of the energy store. It controls the
power supply for wake-up timer, microprocessor and HF transmitter.

STM 250 User Manual V1.3
2.1.3 Wake-up timer / Reed contact / LRN pushbutton
The wake-up timer supervises status changes of the reed contact and learn pushbutton. In
addition, it provides wake-up time intervals for activating the processor.
• Extremely low power consumption during sleeping time period (approx. 25nA).
• The sleep mode is terminated immediately
1. by changing the status of the differential reed contact or
2. when pushing the learn pushbutton.
• Cyclic processor wake-up time strongly depends e.g. on the Goldcap charging status.
2.1.4 Processor
Controls all functionalities after wake-up: First, the status of the reed contact (Open/Closed)
and the LRN pushbutton are sampled. After that RF signal transmission is triggered. If the LRN
pushbutton has been pressed, the output LED is activated for indicating LRN signal sending.
2.1.5 RF transmitter
The radio transmitter is powered up by the processor and sends
• 32-bit ID
• Status of the Reed Contact (open/closed)
• Status of the LRN pushbutton (pressed/released)

2.2 Solar Energy Balance Calculation
In the following diagrams, you will find the energy store operation characteristics under the
condition that the number of reed contact operations can be neglected compared to
cyclic sending times of the presence signal (normal operation in practice). Negligible
implies that reed contact operations are less than 10 times a day.
Notes:
• Configuration of the Goldcap energy store: To obtain the Goldcap nominal capacity
some charging/discharging cycles are needed. Because of that, the initial operating
time at total darkness could be shorter as given below.
• Continuously operation at temperatures higher than 50°C could decrease the capacity
of the Goldcap during lifetime. This will result in shorter charging times and shorter
operating times in total darkness.

2.3 STM 250 Radio Telegram
For the transmission of the telemetric signals, EnOcean has defined a new dynamic radio data
telegram that is adapted to the individual application. It is optimized to the essential features
of energy autarkic radio sensors:
• Minimal energy demand
• Possibility of operating hundred of senders within the same radio cell
• Maximum transmission reliability
• Wide transmission range
• Easy extensibility
• Suitable for uni- and bi-directional communication
• Flexibility for adaptation of different data structures and data quantities
• Data encryption option
2.3.1 Frequency range and transmission cycle allowed
The EnOcean technology operates the 868.3 MHz radio channel (868.0 – 868.6 MHz), which is
exclusively released for short-time data transmission in Europe. Timing conditions can be
found in chapter 3.5 of this paper.
Because of the very low radiated field strength on average, the 868.3 MHz EnOcean radio
technology can be approved in the USA and in Canada. Timing conditions can be found in
chapter 3.6 of this paper.
2.3.2 Modulation process
As modulation process, EnOcean uses incoherent amplitude modulation (ASK). Digital
amplitude modulation enables the implementation of very efficient energy-saving transmitters
because only the “1”-bits are transferred. At the same interference signal level, the
transmission security of the alternative method (FSK) is identical to that of the ASK method
(Ref: Pehl, Digitale und analoge Nachrichtenübertragung, Hüthig 2001).
2.3.3 Transmission timing
The transmission timing of the radio device STM 250 has been developed to avoid possible
collisions with data packages of other EnOcean transmitters as well as disturbances from the
environment.
With each transmission cycle, 3 identical subtelegrams are transmitted. The transmission of a
subtelegram lasts approximately 0.9 ms. To optimize data security, each telegram is repeated
twice within about 40 ms, whereas the delay between the three transmission bursts is effected
at random.

2.3.4 Reliable radio transmission within systems operating many sensors
The very short telegrams of EnOcean transmitters enable the operating of a large number of
senders within the same radio cell; the error rate caused by telegram collisions remains
extremely low. Statistically viewed, the transmission reliability is still greater than 99.99% in
the case of 100 radio sensors that transmit once every minute. This means that even large
office buildings and also huge industrial facilities can be equipped with a large number of
sensors of this kind of radio technology.

2.5 Serial Data Communication via Receiver Device RCM 120
The RCM 120 Receiver Device of EnOcean enables standard asynchronous communication to
a micro-controller or personal computer with a decompressed and simple data structure (9600
bps, 1 start bit, 8-bit data byte with LSB first, 1 stop bit).
Figure 19: Receiver device RCM 120
When the RCM 120 receiver is set to Mode 0 “Serial Interface”, it transfers out data blocks of
information from the received RF telegrams. For a complete transmitter message, a telegram
of 14 data bytes is transferred via the serial link. The data block format is explained in detail in
the RCM 110/120 User Manual.
Type of STM 250 protocol is “1BS” (One Byte Sensor):
ORG byte = 6 dec. always (EnOcean device type “1BS”)
DATA_BYTE3 as follows:
Bit 7 Bit 3 Bit 0
Reserved LEARN Reserved STATE
Bit 0: STATE
STATE = 1: magnet present (Window CLOSED)
STATE = 0: no magnet (Window OPEN)

2.6 Learn Pushbutton – Learning of STM 250 to a Receiver
If necessary, the sensor radio transmitter STM 250 can be easily made known to the receiver
RCM 120 – that has been set into learn mode – by simply triggering a STM 250 radio signal,
for example by operating the LRN pushbutton. STM 250 devices that are currently known to
the RCM 120 receiver or that are already known by the receiver are signed within H_SEQ of
the serial telegram. For details, see the RCM 110/120 User Manual, but please pay attention to
the following:
There are two fundamental methods for transmitter assignments to a receiver:
1.) Manual input of the transmitter ID into the receiver system
2.) The receiver system automatically learns the ID of a received radio telegram within a
special Learn Mode routine.
In the second case, note that cyclic sending sensors can be unintentionally learned,
especially if there are some sensors in operation at the same time. Because of that, it is
recommended to implement a learn procedure in the system that reacts to a dedicated “Learn
Telegram” only.
This special learn procedure has to be implemented by the system intelligence after
RCM 120 serial interface (the RCM 120 learning procedure does not support the STM
250 Learn-Pushbutton!).
The STM 250 Learn Telegram is characterized by the unambiguous defined Bit 3 within
DATA_BYTE3.

3. APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
3.1 Unit Mounting
Both the EnOcean Reed Contact as well as the EnOcean Magnet are very thin and flat. This
means that the unit is unobtrusively mountable at every window or doorframe made of
aluminum, plastic or wood.
Mounting position of the Reed Contact is horizontal, vertically or even tilted. The arrow signs
on the base of the Reed Contact should be directed downwards. In this mounting position, the
STM 250 housing offers protection against splashing water drops (IP44).
Recommendation for mounting the STM250 on metal surfaces or window frames of
aluminum:
Please note that a radio receiver unit (e.g. RCM 120) should not be mounted in the
same plane than the STM 250 base plate is mounted, because in extension of the
metal surface the transmission range is reduced by physical radio transmission
effects of the antenna near to metal. For example the receiver should not be
mounted at the window front side.
3.2 Recommendations for Magnet Positioning
The flat magnet should be positioned by facing the housing in the middle of the reed contact
marking as follows:
Reed contact marking
Figure 20: Righted positioning of the Magnet
(Typical for window mounting)
The magnet can be positioned in vertical or in horizontal position to the Reed Contact housing.
The distance between housing and magnet should be less than 5 mm.

The round-pole magnet can be removed from the magnet housing. This enables smart
embedding into wooden window casements in square position to the Reed Contact housing.
But note that the round-pole must be mounted beside the reed contact marking, as follows:
or:

STM 250 User Manual V1.3
3.3 Transmission Range
The main factors that influence the system transmission range are type and location of the
antennas of the receiver and the transmitter, type of terrain and degree of obstruction of the
link path, sources of interference affecting the receiver, and “dead” spots caused by signal
reflections from nearby conductive objects. Since the expected transmission range strongly
depends on this system conditions, range tests should categorically be performed before
notification of a particular range that will be attainable by a particular application.
The following figures for expected transmission range are considered by using the STM 250
radio transmitter device and the RCM 120 radio receiver device with the provided whip
antennas and may be used as a rough guide only:
- 30 m for obstructed environment (e.g. inside a building)
- 300 m for unobstructed environment (free space propagation)
Further notes to determine the transmission range within buildings are available as download
from www.enocean.com.
3.4 CE Approval Requirements
The devices bear the EC conformity marking CE and conform to the R&TTE EU-directive on
radio equipment. The assembly conforms to the European and national requirements of
electromagnetic compatibility. The conformity has been proven and the according
documentation has been deposited at EnOcean. The devices can be operated without
notification and free of charge in the area of the European Union, in Switzerland, in Croatia, in
Cyprus, in Czech, in Estonia, in Hungary, in Latvia, in Lithuania, in Malta, in Poland, in
Romania and in Slovenia. The following provisos apply:
• EnOcean RF devices must not be modified or used outside their specification
limits.
• EnOcean RF devices may only be used to transfer digital or digitized data. Analog
speech and/or music are not permitted.
• EnOcean RF devices must not be used with gain antennas, since this may result
in allowed ERP or spurious emission levels being exceeded.
• The final product incorporating EnOcean RF devices must itself meet the essential
requirement of the R&TTE Directive and a CE marking must be affixed on the final
product and on the sales packaging each. Operating instructions containing a
Declaration of Conformity has to be attached.
• If the STM 250 transmitter is used according to the regulations of the 868.3 MHz
band, a so-called “Duty Cycle” of 1% per hour must not be exceeded. Permanent
transmitters such as radio earphones are not allowed. For approval aspects, it
must be ensured that the STM 250 reed contact is not operated more than
13.000 times per hour (e.g. window opened or window closed). For this
calculation the extraordinary short telegram length is considered including all
subtelegrams (see Chapter 2.3.3). Also a tolerance of 5% in telegram length is
included.
