After installing motion detectors at home, you expect an instant response to outsiders. If a thief steps over the threshold or breaks in through the window, an alarm will be triggered. And you can rest assured that any high-quality alarm device can handle this task. But responding to movement is only half the battle: an important quality of a detector is the ability to determine what exactly is moving. It must quickly and accurately detect a person, while also ignoring the natural interference and pets, so that you and the security company are sure: if the security system has raised...

Motion detector track the movement of the thermal object. The person and other objects for the detector are perceived as thermal spots. The sensor tracks these heat spots, and if they move, the detector will raise an alarm. The motion detector reacts to the motion of bodies (heat spots) with the temperature close to the temperature of the human body. In the case when the room temperature is approximately equal to the body temperature of the person, the correct operation of the detector is not guaranteed unless temperature compensation is introduced. The temperature compensation technique is used in the following...

Ajax security system provides functionality for configuring the reaction of Relay, WallSwitch and Socket in response to an alarm, changing the security mode, or activation by schedule. The security system can be programmed to change the security mode by schedule, and the automation device can react to Button press in the control mode. Use scenarios to automate your security system and reduce the number of routine actions. For instance, set up water shut-off in case of LeaksProtect flood detector alarm, scheduled heater activation, or automatic closing of the electric lock when arming. To create a scenario, you need a hub with OS Malevich v. 2.8 or later, connected and...

Alarm confirmation is a separate event the hub generates and transmits to the CMS if certain detectors raised the alarm within a specified time. By responding to confirmed alarms only, the security company and the police reduce the risk of false alarms. Confirmed alarms are supported by all Ajax hubs running OS Malevich 2.8 and later. How the alarm confirmation function works The function implies creating a list of at least two devices; their alarms will be taken into account for confirming. If a listed device raises an alarm, the hub enables the timer for the time specified in the settings and...

The Ajax security system informs users about alerts and events using three types of notifications: push notifications, SMS and phone calls. Notifications can be set up in user menu: Devices --> Hub --> Settings --> Users --> User settings      You can be notified by push-notifications (standard signal sound) or/and SMS if there is: Loss of connection between the device and the hub Jamming Low battery charge in device or hub Masking Tampering with the detector body Turning on/off WallSwitch, Relay, Socket Arming/Disarming entire premises or group Turning on Night mode You can be notified by calls and/or push-notifications (siren sound) or/and SMS in case of: Intrusion Fire Flood Hub lost connection with server   Ajax...
