	Door sensors have 2 magnets that send one type of signal when the magnets are in contact with each other (which means the door is closed) and another kind of signal when the magnets are apart (which means the door is open.) These sensors can be mounted on any door or window, so that the two magnets are touching, or very nearly touching when the door is closed.

Note that there is a short bar, even when the door has not been used in that time period. If there is no bar at all for a time period that has passed, that is an indication that there is a problem with the sensor. In many cases, it indicates that the batteries need to be replaced on the sensor, something that is easily checked on the [[Battery Report\|Battery Report]]. For more serious issues, you can call your installer or support specialist.<br /><br />		Each vertical bar on the graph represents a 15-minute period.
