When armed, the detector continuously processes the sensor signals. When motion is detected, DualCurtain Outdoor transmits an alert to a hub and alarms by ashing the logo (if the indication is on). Motion is detected only if both IR sensors on the same side are triggered.
Pet immunity When set up and installed correctly, DualCurtain Outdoor ignores pets up to 80 centimeters tall. The detector is equipped with four IR sensors (two on each side). DualCurtain Outdoor only activates an alarm when motion is detected by both...

If installed correctly, animals will trigger only one of the detector’s sensors. In such a way, DualCurtain Outdoor lters false alarms. For additional protection against false alarms, the detector applies ELSA, an advanced software algorithm Why motion detectors react to animals and how to avoid it...

Protection against false triggerings To lter false alarms, DualCurtain Outdoor applies ELSA (Extended Live Signal Analysis) — a three-stage software algorithm that analyzes the signals received from two narrow-angle IR sensors of the same optical system. 1. Form analysis The shapes of both IR sensor signals should indicate the crossing of the secured zone.

The blind spot creates a potential vulnerability in the security system. DualCurtain Outdoor uses a technology extending the detection area that is unique among outdoor curtain detectors to. When the Near area detection is activated, the upper IR sensor of the detector receives an additional narrow sector of view, directed at the angle of 40 degrees downward.
2. Make sure that the hub is on and has access to the Internet (via Ethernet cable, Wi-Fi, and/or mobile network). You can do this in the Ajax app or by checking the hub logo on the faceplate. The logo should light up white or green if the hub is connected to the network.

DualCurtain Outdoor works only with one Ajax hub. When connected to a new hub, the detector stops sending commands to the old one. Once added to a new hub, DualCurtain Outdoor is not removed from the device list of the old hub. This must be done in the Ajax app.

The Ajax security system has several tests for choosing the right installation location for the devices. The DualCurtain Outdoor tests do not start straight away but not later than over a single hub-detector ping period (36 seconds with the standard settings of the hub).

Signal strength Install DualCurtain Outdoor in a place with stable Jeweller signal strength (2–3 bars in the Ajax app). When selecting the place for installation, consider the distance between the detector and the hub or ReX range extender and the presence of obstacles between the devices that block the radio signal: walls, oors, large objects located in the room.
ReX radio signal range extender Detection zone DualCurtain Outdoor includes two opposing curtain motion detectors. The detection distance is adjusted separately for each side with the Detection Distance scrollbars on the back of the detector. When selecting the installation location, consider the maximum speci ed detection distance of the detector.
Page 26
The detection distance was tested at the medium sensitivity level, ambient temperature of +23°C, and clear weather. Motion type — walking. Under other conditions, the results may be different. When choosing where to place the detector, be sure to use the Detection zone test to determine the sector, in which the detector recognizes motion, as accurately as possible.
Page 27
If appropriate, turn on Near area detection (Near area detection scrollbar) for the desired side. The mode allows the detector sensors to detect motion when an attempt is made to break in at the very body of the device, reducing the blind spot. When installing, also consider the width of the detection zone.
In places with low or unstable signal strength. Closer than within 1 meter of a hub or the ReX range extender. Mounting the detector Prior to installing DualCurtain Outdoor, be sure to select the optimal location following the requirements of this manual!

Before mounting, set the desired detection distance of the detector (Detection distance scrollbar), the viewing angle deviation (Beam direction scrollbar), and activate the Near area detection mode (Near area detection scrollbar), if necessary. 1. Temporarily attach the SmartBracket panel with the bundled ties (or other temporary fasteners, such as double-sided tape).
