Product Introduction
Presence Sensor FP1E is a sensor designed for accurately detecting the
presence of human objects in space. Combining millimeter-wave radar technology
with advanced AI algorithms, it features functions such as spatial background
learning, interference source identification, and sensitivity adaptation.
This device requires use with the Aqara Home app and Aqara Hub
Quick Setup
- Before activating the device, please make sure you have the Aqara Home app downloaded and Aqara hub installed.
- Power the Presence Sensor FP1E, press and hold the reset button for 5 seconds until the LED indicator starts blinking, and release it. The device will enter pairing mode.
- Open the Aqara Home app, tap “Home” and then tap “+” in the top-right corner to enter the “Add Device (Accessory)” page. Select “Presence Sensor FP1E” or scan the installation code on the device and add it according to instructions.
- If the connection fails, please move the device closer to the Hub and try again.
Radar Detection Range
Wall Mounting : When Wall Mounting, the device has a maximum detection distance of 6m, a field of view (FOV) angle of 120°, and a close-range FOV angle of up to 180°. It can be used for space detection of up to 35m².
Ceiling-mounting : When the device is installed horizontally downward on a ceiling with a height of 2.8m, the detection area is approximately a circle with a radius of 4 meters below the device, and the maximum detection space area is approximately up to 50 m².
- The above detection range is theoretical under ideal laboratory conditions. The detection range may vary slightly depending on the actual space environment, installation height and angle.
Detection Range Setting
The device has a maximum detection range of 6m by default, and supports users
to customize the maximum detection range within 6 meters at intervals of 30 cm
to exclude areas that do not need to be detected.
When setting the detection range, please ensure that there is only one person
in the space to ensure the accuracy of the reference distance. When setting,
if there is someone in the space, the current position will be displayed in
real time on the interface as a reference. If there are multiple people, the
current position will be estimated based on the nearest target.
Note : The distance displayed in the “Current Location” is the straight-
line distance from the device to the point where the energy of the human body
is the largest. It is not the actual horizontal distance between the human
body and the device that is strictly and accurately calculated. There may be
errors with the distance perceived by the user. It is only used as a reference
when setting the Detection range boundary. When the Detection range exceeds 6
meters, the “Current Location” will display “Unknown”.
To ensure the accuracy of the detection range setting, it is recommended that
the user slowly approach the device from far to near when setting it, walk to
the boundary of the range that needs to be detection, observe the changes in
the current position, and when the current distance is stable, set the current
position distance to the required detection range. After setting, compare the
presence status on the homepage to make fine adjustments.
AI Spatial Learning
- AI spatial learning can intelligently learn the environmental background, eliminate the false alarms of large areas of glass, metal, mirrors, etc. on the detection results, intelligently adapt to environmental false alarms sources, and improve the accuracy of detection results.
- It is recommended that users actively conduct AI spatial learning after the device is installed. AI spatial learning requires that the space be unmanned and takes about 30 seconds. Please wait patiently.
- During use, the device will continue to learn the spatial background through AI to adapt to the real-time changing spatial environment, making the device more accurate with use.
- If, under special circumstances, the user finds that the device mistakenly reports a false presence status when the space should be absence, an AI spatial learning can be performed immediately to quickly restore the space to an empty state.
Automation Configuration
Users can simply go to the App “Automation” interface and click “+” in the upper-right corner to add Automation related to the device.
Automation conditions
| Presence| The presence of a person is detected in the space
---|---|---
Absence| Space detects no one is present
Presence for (a period of time)| There are people present and the time exceeds
a certain limit
Absence for (a period of time)| No one and the time exceeds a certain limit
Still
| When there are people in the space and the targets are in a relatively still
state (such as sitting or lying still, with small movement and displacement),
it can be used as a sedentary reminder.
Still for (a period of time)| There are people in the space, and the targets
are in a relatively still state for a certain period of time.
Moving
| There are people in the space, and the targets are in a relatively active
state (such as walking or exercising), which can be used to trigger active
scenes such as turning on fresh air, lowering the Air conditioning
temperature, and other related Automation)
Moving for (a period of time)| Moving state and exceeding a certain time
Automation Actions
|
AI Spatial Learning
| It can intelligently learn environmental background, intelligently adapt to environmental false alarms sources, and improve the accuracy of detection results.
It is recommended that users actively conduct an AI space background learning after the device is installed. If, in special circumstances, users find that the device misidentifies a presence status, they can also conduct an AI space background learning immediately, to quickly restore the space
to an empty state.

Reboot device| The device will restart
Recommended Automation Configuration
By referring to the following automation recommendations, you can start using the device immediately within one minute, complete smart home linkage, and experience the charm of Presence Sensor FP1E.
- When “Presence”, Then “turn on the light”;
- When “Absence for a certain period of time”, Then “turn off the lights or the Air conditioning”;
- When “Moving for a certain period of time”, Then “adjust the Air conditioning to 25 degrees”;
- When “Still for a certain period of time”, Then “push a message (sedentary reminder)”.
More Useful Tips
- It is recommended to install the device facing the front of the human body to make it easier to detect the micro-movement of human breathing.
- The detection range of the device can reach 6 meters. It is recommended to configure the detection range according to actual needs, exclude unnecessary detection areas, and improve detection accuracy.
- The time it takes for the device to detect when someone is there and when no one is, is very fast. To improve the user experience and avoid frequent switching of lights, it is recommended to select “no one and for more than a certain period of time” instead of “no one” in the Automation conditions.
- If the device mistakenly identifies an unmanned state as a human being, you can use the AI spatial background learning function to quickly return to the unmanned state.
- The device has AI false alarms source identification and continuous spatial self-learning capabilities, and can become more accurate with use. However, in order to maximize detection accuracy, it is still recommended to avoid installing the device next to Air conditioning outlets, air purifiers, and fans.
