Product Description

Perfect for all residential and small commercial properties, the Optex VX Shield 90° Wide Angle Outdoor Detector provides 40ft by 90° detection coverage. It features a customizable design and high accuracy against false alarms; plus, it's equipped with digitally-enhanced signal recognition logic as well as super multidimensional analysis (SMDA). Analyzing detection patterns and environmental information, SMDA improves immunity against temperature changes or moving trees and vegetation, reducing the risk of false alarms.

Installation of the VX Shield series is easy due to the inclusion of a rotation lock to simplify opening and closing of the detector's cover. With the sensor adjustment components colored in blue, this makes it obvious which parts are used to manipulate the sensor detection area. A spirit level has been incorporated as well, along with an automatic walk test mode which starts automatically when the cover is closed.

  • Intelligent 40ft wired PIR with animal tolerance
  • Active infrared anti-masking
  • Easy set up with rotation lock for easy opening/closing of the cover
  • Sensor adjustment components are colored blue for easier identification of parts that manipulate sensor detection area
  • Spirit level
  • SMDA Logic: Differentiates nuisance false alarms & genuine intrusions
  • Automatic walk test mode starts upon closing the cover
  • Tamper output activates when face cover/back box is removed
