- motion detector for indoor use
- 1 channel for motion detection with adjustable timeout
- 2 channels for light dependent motion detection with adjustable light sensitivity and timeout
- 1 channel for absence detection with adjustable timeout
- 2 channels for twilight detection (dark and light) with adjustable light sensitivity, reaction time and timeout
- one pushbutton (touch technology)
- adjustable button reaction time (0, 1, 2 or 3 seconds)
- detection of short and long button press
- configurable dual channel pushbutton: a different channel is selected depending on the length of the push (short or long push)
- configurable multi-channel operation on pushbutton: the next channel is selected at each press (up to 2 channels)
- extensive day, week and year programs plus a built-in astronomical clock (sunrise and sunset timing) are included to operate pushbuttons automatically
- integrated temperature sensor to control the heating and air conditioning (only usable when side LEDs are turned off)
- feedback/mood lights with RGBW side LEDs (adjustable light intensity and RGBW color)
- the light intensity and color of the feedback and/or mood lights are independently adjustable per side
- LED-indication for supply voltage and data (backside)
- uses one address for the pushbutton, motion and twilight channels, and another address for the thermostat function (optional) (configurable in the VelbusLink configuration software)
- configurable by using the Velbus PC interface (VMB1USB or VMBRSUSB) and the free VelbusLink configuration program

| List of actions per module |
- Q. How to make a Velbus motion sensor switch the light?
- A. A Velbus motion sensor (VMBPIRO, VMBPIRC, VMBPIRM, VMBGP4PIR) has to switch the light on during 3 minutes when motion is detected. How do I program this in Velbuslink? Read more ... (PDF)
- Q. How can I make a Velbus motion sensor switch a relay at the second movement within 1 minute (to avoid false alarms)?
- A. Read more... (PDF)
- Q. How can I disable and enable push buttons and sensor channels at certain times?
- A. A light needs to be switched by a PIR sensor from 8:00 until 22:00, and by a push button from 22:00 until 8:00. How do I program this in Velbuslink? Read more... (PDF)
- Q. How can I make a motion detector set a light to a certain dim value during a certain time?
- A. A Velbus motion sensor needs to turn a light on at a certain dim value (eg. 50%) during a certain time (eg. 1 minute).
This can be done as follows:
- in the configuration of the Velbus motion sensor module, set the timeout of the motion output to 1s
- create an action "Set to percentage" with the motion output channel as initiator and the dimmer channel as subject. Set the dim percentage parameter (in our example 50%). This action has also a "duration" parameter. Set this to the desired on time (in our example 1 minute) - Q. Advanced configuration of a PIR motion sensor, light and ventilation in the toilet
- A. The following functionality needs to be programmed:
- a Velbus PIR motion detector switches the light on in the toilet
- 2 minutes after the light goes on, the ventilation has to start
- 3 minutes after the light goes out, the ventilation has to stop
- if the light is off before the 2 minutes have passed, the ventilation has to stay off
Read more... (PDF) - Q. PIR sensor different dimming values before and after sunset
- A. My PIR sensor switches a dimmed light circuit. When movement is detected, the light should be switched on at 70% during the day, and at 30% during the night. Read more ... (PDF)
