Updated May 9, 2025
MotionCam Outdoor HighMount (PhOD) Jeweller is a wireless motion
detector supporting Photo by alarm, Photo on demand, Photo by scenario,
Photo by schedule, and Photo by arming/disarming features.
It detects movement at a distance of up to 15 m. The device is equipped
with a PIR sensor and uses radio frequency scanning with a K-band
microwave sensor to filter out infrared interference. Also, it features an
anti-masking system that detects attempts to block the detector's field of
view. The device is designed for outdoor and indoor use.
MotionCam Outdoor HighMount (PhOD) Jeweller communicates with a
hub via two secure radio protocols. The detector uses Jeweller to transmit
alarms or events and Wings to transmit photos and update firmware. The
communication range in an open space is up to 1,700 m.
