Feature
DUAL ZONE DETECTION SYSTEM
Horizontal and downward zones require simultaneous detection preventing
nuisance alarms from small animals and passing vehicles.
180 DEGREE WIDE ANGLE COVERAGE
Up to 180° of complete coverage, with independent 2m - 12m adjustable protection distance for left and right sides for maximum installation versatility.
DUAL ALARM SIGNAL OUTPUTS
Choose between:
• individual alarm outputs per 90 degree left and right side
or
• a combined 180 degree output + external output for triggering CCTV or
• ancillary devices.
ANTI-MASKING
Protected by sophisticated Anti-Masking technology with near-lens awareness,designed to initiate an alarm if the device is compromised.
* South African Patent No. 2020/05958
BACK TAMPER
Equipped with both front and back tampers to detect interference or attempted theft of the sensor any time of the day or night.
* South African Patent No. 2020/05959
IMPROVED AREA MASKS
Durable area masks stored within the device allow the coverage pattern to be customised to specific site requirements.
* South African Patent No. 2020/05960
PULSE COUNT & SENSITIVITY ADJUSTMENT
The pulse count can be changed between 1 & 3, and the sensitivity adjusted between 60 & 120% to maintain operational stability in difficult conditions.
