Retired Notice: This Sensor is Retired
This sensor is currently retired. We don’t recommend this product for new customers. Don’t worry though, we can still make it for you if it’s absolutely required, but minimum purchase quantities of 10 pieces will apply. We may need extra time to get this back into production, please click the “Help” Button in the lower right corner of the screen to contact us. We do have alternative sensors available. The extra batteries and extended battery life in the updated version has been a great benefit to our customers. Please see the updated product below:
Industrial Wireless Activity Detector
Introducing NCD’s Industrial Wireless Activity Detector, boasting up to a 2 Mile range using a wireless mesh networking architecture. This devices incorporates a high-accuracy acceleration sensor for measuring acceleration changes. These acceleration changes are used to determine mechanical movement (activity). When activity is detected, this device will send a wireless message to a remote gateway or modem, and then go back to sleep for a pre-configured period of time. This device makes extensive use of interrupts to enter the lowest possible power state while sleeping. This device sends data once activity has been detected and at regular intervals to “Check-in”, letting you know the activity detector is still in operation and ready to go to work.
Advanced Feature Settings
This activity detector has numerous configuration parameters available that may be fine-tuned for your specific application. Set parameters for acceleration range, data rate, interrupt duration, and interrupt threshold. With the ability to detect movement in all directions, acceleration limits (in g units) can be defined for all 3 axis of movement. Moreover, the user may configure OR/AND gates between the interrupts. This allows activity detection (system interrupt) if any single axis interrupt fires (OR condition) or if all axis interrupts fire (AND condition). User can also configure a delay time in seconds which disables the interrupt for that amount of time after a successful interrupt. This enables a user to make sure that the sensor does not drain its battery (with continuous transmissions) if an interrupt condition persists or a wrong condition is accidentally programmed. This time is also used to send a periodic packet to a receiver with latest available data.
Powered by just 2 AA batteries and an operational lifetime of 300,000 wireless transmissions, a 10 year battery life can be expected depending on environmental conditions and the data transmission interval. Optionally, this sensor may be externally powered.
The long range, price, accuracy, battery life and security features of Wireless Activity Detection Sensor makes it an affordable choice which exceeds the requirements for most of the industrial as well as consumer market applications.
NOTE: The current version of this sensor does not support the inbuilt temperature sensor.

Not for use in outdoor applications or for use in excessive temperature conditions. Prolonged freezing will prevent batteries from functioning until thawed, using extended temperature range industrial batteries may improve the useful temperature range. Extended freezing applications should use a full-time powered solution. Prolonged exposure to extreme humidity conditions may damage this device. The sensing element is rated for use for 5 years and may be replaced. Exposure to high temperatures may cause the batteries to leak, causing permanent damage to this device. NCD Warranty does not cover battery corrosion or use in excessively smoky environments under any circumstances.
900HP-S3B Wireless Compatibility Notes
Notice: Compatibility Notes Does NOT Apply to the Following Products:
- NCD Enterprise Solutions
- NCD Wireless Sensors
- NCD Enterprise Modems and Gateways
Notice: Compatibility Notes Applies to NCD Industrial Products, Including Fusion, ProXR, ProXR Lite, Taralist, and Reactor Series Products.
Compatibility Notes
When using an 900HP-S3B communication module, it is essential that you use the ZIGMO_PCB to configure the module settings. Long-Range wireless sensors may be programmed over the air without removing the communications module.
A 900HP-S3B Modem or a gateway of some kind that support the 900HP-S3B communications module will also be required.
