Description

Description

DSC LC-171 is a unique motion detector utilizing dual passive infra-red elements and Microwave technology and is designed for outdoor use in the most severe climatic conditions. The LC-171 can also accommodate pets.

High reliability is achieved by combining both dual tech hardware with highly sophisticated software and an adaptive coverage area, greatly reducing the possibility of false alarms. The active elements are comprised of a dual element PIR and advanced Microwave detector inside a stylish, rigid plastic body.

The Best Defence is a Good Offence

The  LC-171  detector  provides  improved  outdoor  protection  against  intruders,  before  they  make  it  too  far on to  a  property  or  close  to  premises.  With  advanced  digital  signal  processing,  this  detector  provides  accurate  analysis  of body dimensions and differentiation from backgrounds and pets  or  other  animals  to  ensure  reliable  detection  and  false  alarm  immunity.  Digital  signal  processing  provides  consistent  communication  because  the  signal  is  resistant  to  electrical  (either radio frequency or electromagnetic) interference. Upon quick analysis of the signal from the detector, if an intruder is identified, the device will instantly notify the alarm system.

PIR & Microwave Sensors Provide High Accuracy to Prevent False Alarms

The  LC-171  combines  two  PIR  sensors,  both  which  must  be  tripped,  with  a  microwave  sensor.  These  elements  work  to  detect  intruders  without detecting pets or other animals, with the highest level of accuracy.  The sensors are easily adjusted to customize range of detection.

Pet Immunity

Highly accurate sensors provide quality detection while at the same time ignoring pets or other animals weighing up to 15kg (33lb) without lens, up to 35kg (77lb) with lens for the LC-171.

Fast and Easy Installation

Once the detector is installed at the recommended height, installers simply  conduct  a  brief  walk-test,  make  any  necessary  adjustments,  and the unit is ready to perform. Highly visible LEDs can be viewed at a glance and help the installer identify the detection range from any distance or angle within the coverage pattern.
