Dual technologies for perfect detection
Optex VXI-DAM is a smart detector with both IR technology and radar/microwave technology for really challenging environments. In bright sunlight, high temperatures and close proximity to bright car lights, this detector will work very reliably as the radar signal is used as extra security to confirm whether it is a person or not.
Digital signal processing for maximum reliability
To prevent the detector from triggering unnecessary alarms, a highly sophisticated digital logic model has been included. This means that movement from hot trees or sharp changes in temperature will not trigger an alarm. In addition to a smart system to screen out animal movement, there is also a dual beam filtering system where only what is in both beams is detected.
Forget false alarms for small animals, weather and wind
The IR detector has a built-in solution to not alarm smaller animals such as rabbits, cats and small dogs. It is also resistant to alarms caused by weather or swaying trees. This means that the number of false alarms can be reduced to a very low level and you can be sure that an alarm is actually an alarm.
Easy to install
The detector is attached at a convenient height of about one metre from the ground. The angle is adjusted intuitively by simply turning the inner casing and thus detecting the desired area. If there are areas to be excluded, one of the supplied masking patches is used to fit the desired detection pattern. In addition, the detection distance can be easily adjusted in five steps if 12 metres is too far. The detector is then connected to any device (e.g. an IP camera with alarm input) and power.
