Ajax MotionCam Outdoor (PhOD) Jeweller

Overview

The Ajax MotionCam Outdoor (PhOD) Jeweller is a wireless outdoor motion detector with a camera that does more than photograph alarms. PhOD stands for photo on demand: you can take a picture of the yard or driveway from the Ajax app whenever you choose, and the detector can also photograph on a schedule, when the system is armed or disarmed, or when an Ajax fire detector triggers. It suits homes, holiday properties, shops and warehouses on an Ajax Hub 2 family system.

Is it right for you?

• It suits an outside area you want to check from your phone at any time, such as a driveway, a yard or a holiday home.
• Choose it over the standard MotionCam Outdoor if you want on-demand, scheduled or scenario photos.
• It is rated IP56 for -25 to 60 °C, with a hood supplied to protect the camera and masking sensors from rain and snow.
• It works with Hub 2, Hub 2 (4G), Hub 2 Plus and the ReX 2 range extender.

Key features

• Two passive infrared (PIR) sensors with a 90° horizontal view, range adjustable from 3 to 15 m with a scrollbar, 0.3 to 2 m/s detection and three sensitivity levels.
• Pet immunity for animals up to 80 cm tall, with LISA and SmartDetect algorithms and temperature compensation.
• Five photo triggers: by alarm, on demand, by schedule (hub on OS Malevich 2.19 or later), by scenario when Ajax fire detectors trigger, and on arming or disarming; on demand and scenario photos are off by default.
• Camera with 105° horizontal and 50° vertical view, infrared backlight, and photos at 320 × 176 px (default, series of 1 to 5) or 640 × 352 px (series of 1 to 3), delivered in up to 9 s or 20 s with the hub on Ethernet or 4G.
• Masking sensors react to covering, blocking or painting the lens, a tamper alarm reports removal from the SmartBracket, and communication loss is detected within 36 s.
• Four CR123A batteries with a calculated life of up to 3 years with Delay when entering disabled.
• Jeweller radio up to 1,700 m in open space and Wings radio for photos with delivery checks.
• 206 × 108 × 93 mm, 470 g, white.

What else you need

An Ajax Hub 2, Hub 2 (4G) or Hub 2 Plus (or a ReX 2 range extender) and the Ajax app. Photo by schedule needs the hub on OS Malevich 2.19 or later, and photo by scenario needs Ajax fire detectors on the system. The hood is in the box.

Installation

Mount it at 0.8 to 1.3 m on the SmartBracket panel with the hood fitted and the lens facing across the path of approach, then set the range scrollbar. An Ajax installer can survey the area, aim the camera and add it to the hub.

Software and licences

Photo on demand, schedules and scenarios are switched on in the Ajax app. In the PRO Desktop app, photos on demand are available only from a personal account that the hub administrator has given the right to, not from a security company profile.

Before you buy

• Needs a Hub 2 family hub.
• When the batteries are completely discharged the detector stops detecting motion and sending alarms, so act on low battery warnings.
• Photo on demand and photo by scenario are off by default.
• Available in white.
