CombiProtect Wireless Motion Detector Device
Updated January 24, 2022
CombiProtect is a device combining a wireless motion detector with a viewing
angle of 88.5° and a distance of up to 12 meters, as well as a glass break
detector with a distance of up to 9 meters. It can ignore animals and detects
a person within the protected zone from the first step. It can operate for up
to 5 years from a pre-installed battery and is used inside premises.
CombiProtect operates within the Ajax security system, connected to the
hub via the protected
Jeweller protocol. The communication range
is up to 1200 meters in the line of sight. In addition, the detector can be
used as a part of third-party security central units via the Ajax
UART OR Ajax Oxbridge
Plus or integration modules.
The detector is set up via a mobile
application for iOS and Android-based
smartphones. The system notices users of all events through push
notifications, SMS messages, and calls (if activated).
The Ajax security system is self-sustaining, but the user can connect it to
the central monitoring station of a private security company.

Operating Principle
CombiProtect combines two types of security devices – a motion detector and a
glass break detector. A thermal PIR sensor detects intrusion into a protected
room by detecting moving objects with a temperature close to the temperature
of the human body. However, the detector can ignore domestic animals if the
suitable sensitivity has
been chosen in the settings.
The electret microphone is responsible for glass break detection. The
intelligent event registration system requires a sequence of sounds of a
specific nature – first a dull blow, then the ringing sound of falling chips,
which prevents accidental actuation.
CombiProtect does not detect glass breaking if the glass is covered with any lm: shockproof, sunscreen, decorative or other. In order to detect the breaking of this type of glass, we recommend using a DoorProtect Plus wireless opening detector with a shock and tilt sensor.
After actuation, the armed detector immediately transmits an alarm signal to the hub, activating the sirens and notifying the user and security company. If before arming the system, the detector has detected motion, it will not arm immediately, but during the next inquiry by the hub.
Connecting the Detector to the Ajax security system
The detector is connected to the hub and set up via the Ajax Security system
mobile application. To establish a connection please locate the detector and
the hub within the communication range and follow the device adding procedure.
Before starting the connection:
- Following the hub manual recommendations, install the Ajax application. Create an account, add the hub to the application, and create at least one room.
- Switch on the hub and check the internet connection (via Ethernet cable and/or GSM network).
- Ensure that the Hub is disarmed and does not update by checking its status in the mobile application.
Only users with administrator rights can add the device to the hub
How to connect the detector to the hub:
-
Select the Add Device option in the Ajax app.
-
Name the device, scan/write manually the QR Code (located on the body and packaging), and select the location room.
-
Select Add — the countdown will begin.
-
Switch on the device.
For detection and pairing to occur, the detector should be located within the
coverage of the wireless network of the hub (at a single protected object).
The request for connection to the hub is transmitted for a short time at the
time of switching on the device.
If the connection to the Ajax Hub failed, switch off the detector for 5
seconds and retry. The detector connected to the hub will appear in the list
of devices of the hub in the application. The update of the detector statuses
in the list depends on the device inquiry time set in the hub settings, with
the default value — of 36 seconds.
Connecting the Detector to Third Party Security Systems
To connect the detector to a third-party security central unit using the
cartridge Oxbridge Plus
integration module, follow the recommendations in the manual of the respective
device.

Detector Testing
The Ajax security system allows conducting tests for checking the
functionality of connected devices.
The tests do not start straight away but within a period of 36 seconds when
using the standard settings. The time of the start depends on the settings of
the detector polling period (the paragraph on “Jeweller” settings in the hub
settings).

Installing the detector
Selection of the installation site
The controlled area and the efficiency of the security system depending on the
location of the detector.
The device was developed only for indoor use.
The location of the CombiProtect depends on the remoteness from the hub and
the presence of any obstacles between the devices hindering the radio signal
transmission: walls, inserted doors, or large-size objects located within the
room.
Check the signal level at the installation location
If the signal level is at one bar, we cannot guarantee stable operation of the
security system. Take all possible measures to improve the quality of the
signal! As a minimum, move the device – even a 20 cm shift can significantly
improve the quality of reception. If after moving the device still has a low
or unstable signal strength, use a . radio signal range
extender
The direction of the detector lens should be perpendicular to the probable
intrusion into the room. The detector microphone should be positioned at an
angle of no more than 90 degrees relative to the window. Make sure that any
furniture, domestic plants, vases, decorative or glass structures do not block
the eld of view of the detector. We recommend installing the detector at a
height of 2.4 meters. If the detector is not installed at
the recommended height, this will reduce the area of the motion detection zone
and impair the operation of the function of ignoring animals.
Why motion detectors react to animals and how to avoid it
Installation of the detector
Before installing the detector, make sure that you have selected the optimal
location and that it is in compliance with the guidelines contained in this
manual
CombiProtect detector can be attached to a vertical surface or in a
corner.
Attach the SmartBracket panel to the surface using bundled screws, using at
least two xing points (one of them – above the tamper). If you select other
attachment hardware, make sure that they do not damage or deform the panel.
The double-sided adhesive tape may only be used for temporary attachment of
the detector. The tape will run dry in the course of time, which may result in
the falling
of the detector and the actuation of the security system. Furthermore, the
device may fail from a hit, as a result of an impact.
Put the detector on the attachment panel. When the detector is fixed in SmartBracket, it will blink with an LED — this will be a signal that the tamper on the detector is closed. If the light indicator of the detector is not actuated after installation in SmartBracket, check the tamper mode in the Ajax Security System app and then the xing tightness of the panel. If the detector is torn off from the surface or removed from the attachment panel, you will receive a notification.
Do not install the detector:
- outside the premises (outdoors);
- in the direction of the window, when the detector lens is exposed to direct sunlight;
- opposite any object with a rapidly changing temperature (e.g., electrical and gas heaters);
- opposite any moving objects with the temperature close to that of the human body (oscillating curtains above the radiator);
- opposite any reective surfaces (mirrors);
- at any places with fast air circulation (air fans, open windows or doors);
- nearby any metal objects or mirrors causing attenuation and screening of the signal;
- within any premises with the temperature and humidity beyond the range of permissible limits;
- closer than 1 m from the hub.
Detector Maintenance
Check the operational capability of the CombiProtect detector on a regular
basis.
Clean the detector body from dust, spider web, and other contaminations as
they appear. Use a soft dry napkin suitable for equipment maintenance.
Do not use for cleaning the detector any substances containing alcohol,
acetone, gasoline, and other active solvents. Wipe the lens very carefully and
gently – any scratches on the plastic may cause a reduction of the detector
sensitivity.
The pre-installed battery ensures up to 5 years of autonomous operation (with
the inquiry frequency by the hub of 3 minutes). If the detector battery is
discharged, the security system will send respective notices, and the LED will
smoothly light up and go out, if the detector detects any motion or if the
tamper is actuated.
To change the battery, switch off the device, loosen three screws and remove
the front panel of the detector. Change the battery for a new one of type
CR123A, observing the polarity.
