MotionCam User Manual
Updated January 14, 2021
MotionCam is a wireless motion detector with visual alarm verication for
indoor use. It operates for up to 4 years on bundled batteries, detects movement
at up to 12 meters, ignores animals, but recognizes a human move instantly.
MotionCam works within Ajax security systems, connecting to a hub through the
two secure radio protocols. The detector uses to transmit alarms and
events, and Wings to transmit photos. Wireless coverage may reach up 1,700 m
line-of-sight.
The detector is compatible only with or . Connection to , ,
radio signal range extender, and integration modules is
not supported!
The detector is congured via iOS, Android, macOS, and Windows-based
. Users are alerted of all alarms and events via push notications, SMS, and
calls (if enabled).

The Ajax security system can be used for self-reliant monitoring, or can be
connected to a security company’s central monitoring station.
Functional Elements
Operating Principle
The infrared sensor of MotionCam detects intrusion into the secured premises
by identifying moving objects with a temperature close to that of the human
body. The function makes the detector effective

inside premises with temperature ranging from 0 to +40°C. If placed and
adjusted properly, MotionCam ignores pets.
When movement is detected, the armed detector instantly transmits an alarm
signal to the hub. The hub activates the connected sirens and noties the user
and the security company. MotionCam uses radio protocol to transmit
alarms and events to the hub.
The built-in MotionCam camera can take from 1 to 5 shots with the resolution of
320×240 and up to 3 shots with the resolution of 640×480 pixels. A series of
photos is displayed in the app as an animation, so the user is able to evaluate
the unfolding of the event over time. Photos are available both in Ajax apps and
on the Central Monitoring Station software of the security company. MotionCam
uses Wings radio protocol to transmit photos to the hub.
The detector features infrared illumination for shooting in the dark, which is
activated only when triggering.
Photo delivery time in the Ajax apps depends on the resolution and the speed of
your internet connection. The table shows the delivery time for one photo at a
signal strength of 2-3 divisions between the hub and MotionCam and the hub
connected via Ethernet.
Photo resolution Delivery time
160 × 120 up to 7 s

At the same time, an alarm is transmitted within 0.15 s.
Pairing the Detector with the hub
Before you start pairing the detector:
Please note that only a user with admin permissions can add devices to the hub.
To connect the detector:
For detection and pairing to occur, the device must be within a hub’s wireless coverage
(at the same facility).
1. Turn on the hub and check the Internet connection (via Ethernet cable
and/or GSM network).
2. Install the on your smartphone. Create an account, add the hub to
the app, and create at least one room.
Ajax app
3. Check the status of the hub in the app to make sure it is disarmed and is not
updating.
1. In the Ajax mobile app, tap Add Device.
2. Name the device, scan or enter manually the QR code (placed on the back of
the detector body or its packaging), select the room for placement.
3. Click Add. The countdown will start.
4. Turn on the device by holding its power button for 3 seconds. Please note
that the hub connection request is only sent for a short time while switching
on the device.
MotionCam turns off automatically within 6 seconds after activation if it fails to
connect to the hub. There is no need to turn off the device to retry.
If the device has already been paired with another hub, turn MotionCam off, and
then follow the standard pairing procedure.
After pairing, the detector will appear on the app’s hub device list. The frequency
of the device status updates depends on the polling interval indicated in the
hub’s settings (36 seconds by default).

Settings
You can adjust the device parameters in the settings section:
What is delay when leaving
No — the device operates normally and
transmits all events.
Lid only — the hub administrator has
disabled notications 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 (specied in the settings
for Devices Auto Deactivation). The feature
is congured in the Ajax PRO app.
Settings Value
First eld Detector name (editable)
Room The virtual room to which the device can be
assigned
Sensitivity
MotionCam detector has three sensitivity levels:
Always Active
In Always Active mode, the detector always
registers motion. Regardless of whether the
system is armed, the detector will alert you
about any motion. Activate this mode if the
detector is installed in a room requires 24/7
monitoring.
Image resolution
MotionCam takes photos with the following
resolutions:
The higher the resolution, the more detailed the
image is, but it takes longer to transmit the
photos to the hub
Send photo in case of alarm
When triggered, the detector takes from 1 to 5
photos.
If the No photo option is selected, the detector
does not activate the camera when triggered.
