AJAX MotionProtect User manual

MotionProtect / MotionProtect Plus User Manual
Updated January 19, 2021
MotionProtect is a wireless motion detector designed for indoor use. It can operate for up to 5
years from an in-built battery, and monitors the area within 12-meter radius. MotionProtect
ignores animals, while recognizes a human from the rst step.
MotionProtect Plus uses radio frequency scanning along with a thermal sensor, ltering
interference from thermal radiation. Can operate up to 5 years from an in-built battery.
MotionProtect (MotionProtect Plus) operates within the Ajax security system, connected to the
via the protected protocol. The communication range is up to 1700 (MotionProtect
Plus up to 1200) meters in the line of sight. In addition, the detector can be used as a part of
third-party security central units via the or integration
modules.
The detector is set up via the for iOS, Android, macOS and Windows. The system
noties user of all events through push notications, SMS and calls (if activated).
The Ajax security system is self-sustaining, but the user can connect it to the central monitoring
station of a security company.
Functional Elements
Operating Principle
Thermal PIR sensor of MotionProtect detects intrusion into protected room by detecting moving
objects whose temperature is close to the temperature of the human body. However, the
detector can ignore domestic animals if the suitable sensitivity has been chosen in the settings.
When the MotionProtect Plus detects motion, it will additionally carry out radio frequency
scanning of the room, preventing false actuation from thermal interferences: air ows from sun-
heated curtains and louvre shutters, operating thermal air fans, replaces, air conditioning units,
etc.
After actuation, the armed detector immediately transmits an alarm signal to the hub, activating
the sirens and notifying the user and security company.

Connecting the Detector to the Ajax Security System
Connecting the Detector to the hub
Before starting connection:
Only users with administrator rights can add the device to the hub
How to connect the detector to the hub:
For detection and pairing to occur, the detector should be located within the coverage of the
wireless network of the hub (at a single protected object).
Request for connection to the hub is transmitted for a short time at the moment of switching on
the device.
If the detector failed to connect to the hub, switch off the detector for 5 seconds and retry.
The connected detector will appear in the devices list in the application. Update of the detector
statuses in the list depends on the device inquiry time set in the hub settings(default value is 36
seconds).
Connecting the Detector to Third Party security systems
To connect the detector to a third party security central unit with the or
integration module, follow the recommendations in the manuals of these devices.

No — the device operates normally and transmits all
events.
Lid only — the hub administrator has disabled
notications about triggering on the device body.
Entirely — the device is completely excluded from the
system operation by the hub administrator. The device
does not follow system commands and does not
report alarms or other events.
By number of alarms — the device is automatically
disabled when the number of alarms is exceeded
(specied in the settings for Devices Auto

Before using the detector as a part of the security system, set up the suitable sensitivity level.
Switch the Always Active if the detector is located in a room requiring 24-hour control.
Regardless of whether the system is set in the armed mode, you will receive notices of any
detected motion.
If any motion is detected, the detector activates the LED for 1 second and transmits an alarm
signal to the hub and then to the user and central monitoring station (if it is connected).

Detector Testing
The Ajax security system allows conducting tests for checking the functionality of connected
devices.
The tests do not start immediately but within a period of 36 seconds when using the standard
settings. The time of the start depends on the settings of the detector polling period (the
paragraph on Jeweller settings in the hub settings).
Device installation
Selection of the Detector Location
The controlled area and the eciency of the security system depends on the location of the
detector.
The device developed only for indoor use.
Location of MotionProtect depends on the remoteness from the hub and presence of any
obstacles between the devices hindering the radio signal transmission: walls, inserted oors,
large-size objects located within the room.
Check the signal level at the installation location
If the signal level is at one bar, we cannot guarantee stable operation of the security system.
Take all possible measures to improve the quality of the signal! As a minimum, move the device

– even 20 cm shift can signicantly improve the quality of reception.
If after moving the device still has a low or unstable signal strength, use the
.
The direction of the detector lens should be perpendicular to the probable way of intrusion into the room
Make sure that any furniture, domestic plants, vases, decorative or glass structures do not block
the eld of view of the detector.
We recommend installing the detector at the height of 2,4 meters.
If the detector is not installed at the recommended height, this will reduce the area of the motion
detection zone and impair the operation of the function of ignoring animals.
Installation of the Detector
Before installing the detector, make sure that you have selected the optimal location and it is in compliance
with the guidelines contained in this manual
The Ajax MotionProtect detector (MotionProtect Plus) should be attached to a vertical surface
or in the corner.
If the LED indicator of the detector is not actuated after installation in SmartBracket, check the
status of the tamper in the and then the xing tightness of the
panel.
If the detector is torn off from the surface or removed from the attachment panel, you will
receive the notication.
Do not install the detector:

Why motion detectors react to animals and how to avoid it
1. Attach the SmartBracket panel to the surface using bundled screws, using at least two xing
points (one of them – above the tamper). After selecting other attachment screws, make
sure that they do not damage or deform the panel.
The double-sided adhesive tape may only be used for temporary attachment of the detector. The tape
will run dry in the course of time, which may result in the falling of the detector and actuation of the
security system. Furthermore, hitting can damage the device.
2. Put the detector on the attachment panel. When the detector is xed in SmartBracket, it will
blink with an LED – this will be a signal that the tamper on the detector is closed.

Detector Maintenance
Check the operational capability of the Ajax MotionProtect detector on a regular basis.
Clean the detector body from dust, spider webs and other contaminants as they appear. Use soft
dry napkin suitable for equipment maintenance.
Do not use any substances containing alcohol, acetone, gasoline and other active solvents for
cleaning the detector. Wipe the lens very carefully and gently – any scratches on the plastic may
cause reduction of the detector sensitivity.
The pre-installed battery ensures up to 5 years of autonomous operation (with the inquiry
frequency by the hub of 3 minutes). If the detector battery is discharged, the security system will
send respective notices and the LED will smoothly lights up and goes out, if the detector detects
any motion or if the tamper is actuated.
