Basic settings for U-Prox PIR Cam

Share and save

Select the device you want to configure from the list of devices.

1. “Name” – the name of the device

2. “Group” – select the security group to which the device belongs. A security group is a logical collection of protected zones (for example: a room, an apartment, a garage, a floor of a building, etc.), representing the minimum unit of security. A security group allows you to control all its zones simultaneously. Security groups are independent – a user can only control and view those groups, devices, and events to which they have been granted access.

3. “Sensitivity” – sets the detector’s motion‐detection range.

High – approximately 12 meters
Low – approximately 6 meters
Medium – approximately 8 meters

4. “Light indication” – turning the light indication on or off on the device

5. “Temperature Threshold Alerts” – when the temperature moves outside the specified limits, the device will generate corresponding events: “Cooling” and “Overheating”. This can be used in automation scenarios.

6. “Settings” – device operating modes depending on the type of use

a) “With Delay” (Entry Zone):

Armed: Triggering this sensor starts the entry delay countdown. If the system is not disarmed before the delay expires, it goes into Alarm and sends an alert.
Arming: When you arm the system, it first waits for the exit delay to expire, then the system becomes fully armed.

b) “No Delay”:

Armed: Triggering this sensor immediately puts the system into Alarm and sends an alert.
Disarmed: The system ignores this sensor.

c) “Perimeter” (Corridor):

Armed, no entry delay or delay expired: System goes into Alarm and sends an alert.
Armed, entry delay in progress: Sensor is ignored.
Disarmed, exit delay in progress: Sensor is ignored.
Disarmed: Sensor is ignored.

d) “Interior Corridor”:

Armed, no entry delay or delay expired: Alarm is triggered.
Armed, entry delay in progress: Sensor is ignored.
Disarmed, exit delay in progress: Sensor is ignored.
Armed in Perimeter-only mode (“Stay” or “Night”): Sensor is ignored.
Disarmed: Sensor is ignored.

e) “Interior Zone”:

Armed: Triggering this sensor immediately alarms and sends an alert.
Armed in Perimeter-only mode (“Stay” or “Night”): Sensor is ignored.
Disarmed: Sensor is ignored.

f) “24-Hour Zone” (Always Active):

Triggering this sensor immediately alarms and sends an alert in any system mode (armed or disarmed).

7. “Entry Delay” (only for the “With Delay” installation type):
The time allowed to disarm the security system after entering the protected premises before an alarm is triggered.

Only for the “Delayed” (“Entry Zone”) installation type

8. “Exit delay” (only for the “Delayed” installation type). The time allowed to exit the premises after the security mode has been activated (armed).

Only for the “Delayed” (“Entry Zone”) installation type

9. “Entry Delay in ‘Stay’ Mode” (only for the “With Delay” installation type):
The time allowed to disarm the security system after entering the premises when it has been armed in “Stay” or “Night” mode.

Only for the “Delayed” (“Entry Zone”) installation type

10. “Exit Delay in ‘Stay’ Mode” (only for the “With Delay” installation type):
The time allowed to exit the premises after arming the system in “Stay” (Perimeter) or “Night” mode.

Only for the “Delayed” (“Entry Zone”) installation type

11. “Arming with a Faulted Sensor” – forcibly arms the sensor even if it’s currently faulted.

“Force Arm upon Sensor Restore” – the system waits for the sensor to clear and then automatically arms that sensor.
“Force Arm after Exit Delay” – if the sensor has not cleared by the end of the exit delay, the system goes into Alarm and sends an alert.
