OMV
OUTDOOR MOTION VIEWER
Infrared detection
The OMV outdoor MotionViewer uses standard infrared detection. The PIR is optimized for the detection of
individuals.
Several parameters affect the detection :
• Subject thermal signature (size, width, temperature and emissivity).
• Detection environment (ambient temperature, reflectivity of the surfaces, the presence of water or moist
surfaces).
• Speed and direction of the movement.
• OMV setup (tilt, height, lens type, sensitivity).
Important :
It is essential to monitor the proper functioning of the infrared detection using the FUNCTIONAL TEST feature in the
panel MAINTENANCE menu.
A red status LED lights up when the OMV is detecting. Use that test to determine the pattern of the detection field.
