Ajax StarterKit Cam Plus burglar alarm kit

Security systems are designed to detect intruders in the protected area and inform users about incidents. With the help of an alarm system, users can avoid the effects of fires, burglaries, or gas and water leaks.

To choose an alarm system, its users need to understand what types are used in different kinds of rooms and what tasks they perform.

Alarm systems differ in their response to triggers. The first type of alert is audible. Reports alarm bells and sirens at the facility. The second is light, which informs about the incident with LED devices or signal lamps. The third type is combined alarms, which use light and sound.

In addition to alarm detectors, the kits of security devices include:

1. Reception and control devices and panels;
2. sensors (detectors) of the various principles of action;
3. equipment for transmitting information to the security control panel or the user's phone;
4. power supplies;
5. keyboards for arming and disarming the security system;
6. keychains for control and automation.

This is an autonomous security system if the burglar alarm does not provide the ability to remotely transmit alarm messages to the user's phone or remote control. This variation of the alarm is considered the least effective for protecting the territory.

The principle of operation of the security alarm

The security alarm system's operation principle is based on the smooth operation of all its components.

Security alarm sensors detect an attempt to enter the protected area. There are many ways to get inside a protected area or territory — opening a door, breaking a window, or trying to climb over a fence. Accordingly, the principle of operation of sensors for signaling is different.

According to the detection method, security sensors are as follows:

• Motion detectors;
• sensors for opening windows and doors;
• break detectors.

In any case, the sensors convert the corresponding action into an electrical signal. For example, break detectors detect the sound of broken glass and are called sound or acoustic.

The information generated by the detector must be received and processed. For this purpose, control panels and receiving devices are used. These devices are "intermediaries" between the sensor and alert devices.

Several devices may have GSM transmitters and built-in radio channel receivers.

Equally important is transmitting information from the security sensor to the receiver. There are the two options:

• Wired — overlaid communication lines.
• Wireless — via radio channel.

Automatic alarm for security

Most of the processes of almost any security alarm system are automated. This concerns fixing intrusion attempts, signal processing, and sending an alarm. But there are systems with such a degree of automation that they can be called smart.

In automatic systems, it is essential to have the option of automatically monitoring the health of the alarm system. Self-testing sensors and transmitting information about their performance are implemented in addressable versions. These systems operate at the software and hardware level. The presence of a software component allows users to implement such functions as:

• differentiation of user access rights to work with the system;
• the ability to integrate the alarm with other security systems;
• automatic control of equipment according to a given schedule or event.

StarterKit Cam Plus — a starter kit for the wireless security system with photo-verification of alarms

The StarterKit Cam Plus alarm set provides multi-level security and speeds up alarm response. It includes four devices: the Hub 2 Plus Jeweller control panel, the DoorProtect Jeweller opening sensor, the motion sensor with the MotionCam Jeweller camera, and the 

 SpaceControl Jeweller remote control key fob.

The principle of operation of the StarterKit Cam Plus wireless alarm kit

The Ajax security system will instantly notify the user and the security company about the door breaking with photo confirmation in less than 9 seconds. Remote control from a mobile phone anywhere in the world using applications on iOS and Android allows its users to check the status of connected devices, configure sensors, and activate partial protection.

Up to 200 users can be connected to the alarm system, and up to 25 security groups can be created to limit access. The StarterKit Cam Plus, a security device kit, is suitable for commercial and residential facilities. The communication range reaches 2000 meters in open areas, and the radio network covers up to 35 km².

StarterKit capabilities are expanded by connecting additional Ajax detectors to the system. With their help, a professional burglar alarm system turns into one that helps prevent burglary, fire, and flood.

StarterKit Cam Plus alarm kit devices

The StarterKit Cam Plus, a Wireless Photo Alarm Kit with LTE support, includes the following devices:

Hub 2 Plus Jeweller smart panel

The center of the security system is the Hub 2 Plus Jeweller panel, equipped with a WI-FI module, an Ethernet port, and 2 SIM slots for 4G support. Thanks to four communication channels with high-speed switching, alarm transmission is guaranteed even if the communication is interrupted. Photo confirmation of the alarm arrives at the owner's device and the security control panel in less than 9 seconds.

Two hundred devices, such as sensors, sirens, and cameras, are connected to the Hub 2 Plus Jeweller alarm control panel. Four communication channels allow the control panel to respond instantly to an alarm. In case of interruptions with one of the providers, the control panel reconnects to another channel in seconds.

The Hub 2 Plus Jeweller control panel helps users create up to 64 response scenarios and automates the security of a guarded area. The device can de-energize the required area, turn off the water, activate sirens, and block electric locks on doors and windows.

If the room is de-energized, the control panel will continue to work up to 15 hours on a backup battery.

Hub 2 Plus Jeweller runs on OS Malevich's real-time operating system, which protects the control panel from viruses, cyberattacks, and hacking attempts.

Motion sensor MotionCam Jeweller with camera

The MotionCam Jeweller wireless alarm sensor detects movement and takes a series of photos. Connecting such a device to a security system helps comprehensively analyze the facility's situation. The MotionCam Jeweller wireless motion detector is activated only in case of an alarm and, in a few seconds, delivers a photo confirmation to the security console or user devices. All data is encrypted during transmission and is not processed.

The MotionCam Jeweller motion sensor does not respond to pets under 50 cm tall, which helps to avoid false alarms. MotionCam Jeweller connects to the Ajax application's alarm system, and control occurs there.

DoorProtect Jeweller opening detector

The DoorProtect Jeweller wireless opening sensor will help prevent burglary and is suitable for installation on all types of doors. Thanks to the magnetic field and the reed switch, the door's opening is determined quickly.

Remote control key fob SpaceControl Jeweller

Keychain SpaceControl Jeweller to control security modes. SpaceControl Jeweller has a panic button to report danger.
