Sharp KTES1 ECO Sensor for Large Format Displays

Name: Sharp KTES1 ECO Sensor for Large Format Displays
Brand: Sharp
SKU: sharp-ktes1
Availability: InStock

Overview

The Sharp KTES1 is an ECO Sensor accessory for dedicated Sharp large format displays. It combines built-in ambient light measurement, human presence detection and instant wake-up, so a display can dim or enter low-power standby when a room is empty and reactivate as people arrive. It suits boardrooms, classrooms and training rooms across Qatar that want lower energy use without manual switching. Request a quote for compatible models.

What the KTES1 sensor does in a room

The Sharp KTES1 is an ECO Sensor built for dedicated Sharp large format displays. Rather than relying only on infrared remote control, it gives the display three automatic behaviours driven by what is happening in the room. Each one targets wasted power or delayed use, the two issues facilities teams in Qatar most often raise for meeting rooms and classrooms.

Three sensing functions that work together

Ambient light measurement: the built-in sensor reads the light level in the room and adjusts display brightness automatically. When the room is dim, the display uses less power.
Human presence detection: the sensor checks whether anyone is in front of the display. If the room is empty, the display moves into a low-power standby mode.
Instant wake-up: when someone walks back into the space, the display reactivates or brightens to its set level, so the presenter is not kept waiting.

Where it fits in Qatar

A typical case is a boardroom in West Bay that is used for a few hours a day and stands empty overnight. With presence detection, the display can drop into standby after a meeting ends instead of running through the evening. In Education City, a lecture room used in blocks between classes benefits from a display that is ready the moment a lecturer enters. A training centre in Lusail with several rooms booked across the Sunday to Thursday working week can apply the same logic to the display in each compatible room, so empty rooms are not drawing power all day.

Compatibility and planning before installation

The KTES1 is listed as compatible with eight Sharp models: PN-LM431, PN-LM551, PN-LB863, PN-LB653, PN-LB753, PN-LB653-WIFI, PN-LB863-WIFI and PN-LB753-WIFI. Confirm that your display is on this list before ordering, because the accessory is designed for these dedicated Sharp large format displays. Sensor performance depends on its position and the room layout, so decide placement before the display is mounted. A free site survey from SmartRooms Qatar can review sightlines, seating areas and light sources in the room. The source data does not give an operating temperature range for the KTES1, so do not place it near windows or in areas exposed to summer heat above 45°C until the environment is confirmed with our team.

Questions about KTES1

What is the Sharp KTES1?

The Sharp KTES1 is an ECO Sensor accessory for dedicated Sharp large format displays. It adds ambient light measurement, human presence detection and instant wake-up, so brightness and power state respond to the room rather than relying only on manual control. It is listed for eight compatible Sharp models. Request a quote from SmartRooms Qatar to confirm the right match for your display.

Which displays is the KTES1 compatible with?

The KTES1 is listed as compatible with the PN-LM431, PN-LM551, PN-LB863, PN-LB653, PN-LB753, PN-LB653-WIFI, PN-LB863-WIFI and PN-LB753-WIFI. Check your display model against this list before ordering, because the accessory is designed for these dedicated Sharp large format displays. If your model is not listed, ask SmartRooms Qatar for a quotation on a compatible alternative.

How does the ambient light measurement change the display?

The built-in ambient light sensor reads the light level in the room and adjusts brightness automatically. When ambient light is low, the display lowers its brightness, which reduces power consumption without user action. This is useful for a boardroom in West Bay where daylight changes through the day and evening lighting is lower, so the screen does not need to run at a fixed high brightness in a dim room.

How does presence detection put the display into standby?

High-accuracy human presence detection checks whether anyone is in front of the display. If the room is empty, the display enters a low-power standby mode. This helps in Doha offices where meetings finish at unpredictable times, so the screen does not stay fully powered through the evening. Ask for a free site survey to confirm the sensor coverage suits your room layout.

How quickly does the display wake when someone enters?

The KTES1 is designed for instant wake-up. When someone enters the meeting space, the display reactivates or brightens to its optimal level with no waiting time. For a lecturer in an Education City lecture room, this means the display is ready when the session begins without a manual start-up. The source data does not give a timing in seconds, so ask our team for timing details in writing if you need them.

Does the KTES1 replace the infrared remote control?

The manufacturer describes the KTES1 as enhancing functionality beyond traditional IR control, adding ambient light measurement, presence detection and instant wake-up. How your daily control workflow changes depends on your display setup and room control arrangement, so confirm this with SmartRooms Qatar when you request a quote. The sensor is intended to work with compatible Sharp displays, not to replace display management in general.

Is the KTES1 suitable for classrooms during the summer heat?

The source data does not give an operating temperature range for the KTES1, so its suitability for hot environments cannot be confirmed from the specification. In Qatar, summer temperatures can exceed 45°C, and equipment near windows or in unconditioned spaces faces greater stress. Before installing it in a classroom, ask the SmartRooms Qatar team to confirm the environment during the free site survey.

How should we plan sensor placement in a boardroom?

Plan the position with the room layout in view: seating, the main sightline to the display and the areas where presenters stand. A free site survey from SmartRooms Qatar can review these points before a large Sharp display is wall-mounted. Because the sensor reads both presence and light, its position shapes how the display responds, so confirm placement before fixing any mounting brackets.

Can a training centre in Lusail apply the KTES1 across several rooms?

Yes, provided each room display is one of the compatible models. A training centre running several rooms through the Sunday to Thursday working week can add the KTES1 to each compatible display so that empty rooms move into standby between sessions. Quotations for multiple units are usually provided within one working day, and government and private organisations can issue a purchase order.

Can a ministry or school buy the KTES1 with a purchase order?

Yes. SmartRooms Qatar accepts purchase orders (LPOs), government tenders including Monaqasat, and payment by bank transfer, cheque or purchase order. Send the display models and the number of compatible units you need, and the quotation will include the KTES1 alongside them. Products are covered by the manufacturer's warranty, which is useful for a school ordering accessories for several classrooms.

What should I send when requesting a quote?

Send your Sharp display model numbers, the number of units needed, the room type such as a boardroom or classroom, and the installation location. Quotations are usually provided within one working day. If you are unsure whether your display is compatible, include its model number so the team can check it against the KTES1 compatibility list. Delivery covers all eight municipalities of Qatar.
