Ajax MotionCam Outdoor PhOD

What is the PhOD model?

PhOD (Photo on Demand) means that the camera can take photos manually or automatically not only when an alarm signal is triggered: Photo on Demand (on request), Photo by Scenario, Photo by Schedule – if these settings are enabled

Key technical specifications:

• Motion Detection:

  • 2 × PIR sensors, LISA SmartDetect algorithm (two-stage – correlation and spectral analysis dramatically reduces false alarms)

  • Detection range: adjustable 3–15 m

  • Monitored area horizontally ~90°; camera ~105° × 50°

  • Pets (≤ 80 cm) are ignored if the sensor is installed correctly

• Photo Verification:

  • Image quality: 1–5 images 320×176 px or 1–3 images 640×352 px

  • IR LED ensures shooting in darkness and low light .

  • Photo reaches the app: 320×176 px approximately 9 s, 640×352 px approximately 20 s

• Communication and Security:

  • Two radio channels: Jeweller for alarms (compatible with Hub 2, 2 Plus, Hybrid and ReX2 extender), Wings for photo transmission up to 1700 m in open area

  • Anti-masking (sensor covering/obscuring), tamper (removal from mount), encrypted secure connection .

• Power and Environment:

  • Power: 4 × CR123A, 3 years battery life (2.5 years if “Entry Delay” is enabled)

  • Operating temperature: –25…+60 °C, max. humidity 95 %

• Installation:

  • Installation height mostly 0.8–1.3 m; convenient to install on SmartBracket mount.

  • Dimensions approximately 206×108×93 mm, weight ~470 g

Enhanced User Experience

• Manual photo request is a new advantage: you can get a picture of the current situation even if no alarm is triggered

• The camera is not CCTV: images are sent only under predefined conditions, not as real-time streaming .

• During installation, proper height/angle is important – incorrect placement can reduce effective detection range
