Environmental factors including temperature, humidity, interference from other devices, obstructions, and placement can affect the performance and reliability of sensors, leading to errors, malfunctions, or even damage.
For your reference, here is some environmental factors that can affect the performance of Xiaomi Motion Sensors:
1. Extreme temperatures can affect the sensor's performance. It's best to place the sensor in an area where the temperature remains within the specified range for optimal operation;
2. High humidity can cause condensation inside the sensor, affecting its performance. Ensure the sensor is placed in a relatively dry environment;
3. Other wireless devices or electronic equipment operating on the same frequency can interfere with the sensor's signal. Try to minimize such interference by placing the sensor away from such devices;
4. Physical obstructions such as walls, furniture, or other objects can block or weaken the sensor's signal. Place the sensor in an area with a clear line of sight for better performance;
5. Proper placement of the sensor is crucial for optimal performance. Ensure it is mounted at the correct height and angle for the best coverage area.
