Updated on 15/10/2025

To correctly install the sensor, follow the procedures below.

Configuration:

  1. Press the round membrane button on the sensor to turn it on, the LED on the sensor should light up for about a second.
    During normal operation of the sensor the LED is always off.
    You will no longer need to press the button for any other operation.

  2. Open the 1Control app
  3. Access settings by pressing the gear in the top left
  4. Open the “Manage your devices” section.
  5. Select the SOLO device that manages the access on which you want to install the sensor
  6. Select the copy of the remote control associated with the access in question

  7. Click “Opening Sensor”
  8. Follow the instructions in the app.

Positioning:

  • Make sure that when the gate or garage is closed the sensor components are close together (<1.5cm). In particular, it is important that the smaller component of the sensor is close to the reference dot of the larger component as shown in the figure.
  • On the contrary, when the gate or garage is open, the sensor components must be distant from each other.
  • Also make sure the door sensor is within 15 meters of your 1Control LINK so that it can be detected.
  • We recommend installing the sensor so that the part with the button and LED faces directly towards the LINK
