Need help?Do you have a question about the HIKVISION DS-PDC15-EG2-WE and is the answer not in the manual?
The Hikvision DS-PDC15-EG2-WE is a wireless curtain detector designed for security applications. This device is certified with Security Grade 2 and Environmental Class II, ensuring reliable performance in various indoor environments. The detector's primary function is to identify intrusions by sensing movement within a defined curtain-shaped detection zone, providing an early warning system for protected areas.
The DS-PDC15-EG2-WE operates as a perimeter security device, creating an invisible curtain of detection that is ideal for protecting windows, doors, or specific narrow passages. When an intruder crosses this curtain, the detector triggers an alarm, sending a notification to a connected security control panel. The device utilizes advanced digital microprocessor-based technology to ensure accurate detection and minimize false alarms. It features auto-sensitivity and digital temperature compensation, allowing it to adapt to changing environmental conditions and maintain consistent performance. The sealed optics and direct light filter (up to 6500lux) enhance its reliability by preventing interference from external light sources.
The detector supports two-way wireless communication, ensuring a secure and stable connection with the control panel. It employs frequency hopping and AES-128 encryption for robust data transmission, protecting against signal jamming and unauthorized access. The device includes a tamper protection mechanism for both the front and back panels, which triggers an alarm if anyone attempts to open or remove the detector from its installed position. An LED indicator, which illuminates blue during an alarm, provides visual feedback on the device's status.
The DS-PDC15-EG2-WE offers flexible configuration options through a dedicated mobile application. Users can select different zone types, enable or disable a "Stay Arm Bypass" feature to exclude the zone during stay arming, and activate a chime function for audible alerts. It also supports an "Enable Silent Zone" mode, where the zone remains silent when an alarm is triggered. Advanced features like "Double Knock" require two detections within a short period to trigger an alarm, reducing false positives. The "Cross Zone" feature allows for the linking of two zones, reporting an alarm only if both are triggered within a set timeframe, further enhancing accuracy.
Users can adjust the detector's sensitivity, with higher sensitivity making it easier to detect intruders. The device can capture images, and users can set the image resolution and the number of images captured in a series. Other configurable parameters include the "Swinger limit activation," which sets the limit for swinger activity, and the "Trigger Interval," which defines the time between consecutive triggers to prevent repeated alarm messages. The LED indicator can be turned on or off, and the "Polling Rate" can be set to define the heartbeat interval. The device also includes "Signal Strength Test" and "Detection Zone Test" modes to assist with installation and ensure optimal performance. A "Zone Bypass" function allows users to temporarily bypass a zone, and a "Capture" function enables manual picture capture.
The DS-PDC15-EG2-WE is designed for straightforward enrollment and installation. The enrollment process can be completed locally or by scanning a QR code or inputting the serial number via the mobile application. Once enrolled, the device automatically connects to the control panel. For re-enrollment, users need to hold the tamper button, power off the device, and then power it back on.
Installation involves securing the rear panel to a wall using four screws after knocking out the screw holes. Alternatively, the device can be mounted using sponge tape, though this method is not EN compliant. Optional wall and ceiling bracket accessories are available for flexible mounting. The installation height is recommended to be between 1.8 to 3 meters to achieve the optimal detection range of 15 meters with a 6.3° angle, covering 18 zones and 8 planes.
After installation, it is crucial to check the signal strength and installation environment. The device enters a walk test mode for 3 minutes after enrollment. During this mode, triggering the detector within its detection range will cause the LED indicator to turn blue if the installation position is proper. If the LED remains off, the detector's position needs adjustment. Signal strength can be checked via the control panel, with solid green indicating a strong signal, solid orange a medium signal, solid red a weak signal, and red flashes indicating a failure.
The device is powered by a CR123A battery, which provides a standard battery life of 5 years. The low voltage value is 2.45 V, and the device includes a battery compartment that must close securely to prevent chemical burning danger.
Proper operation and maintenance are essential for the longevity and reliability of the DS-PDC15-EG2-WE. All electronic operations must comply with local electrical safety regulations and fire prevention guidelines. The device should not be dropped or subjected to physical shock, nor exposed to high electromagnetism radiation. Installation on vibrating surfaces or places subject to shock should be avoided to prevent equipment damage.
Before wiring, installing, or dismantling the device, ensure that the power has been disconnected. If any smoke, odors, or noise emanate from the device, immediately turn off the power, unplug the power cable, and contact the service center. The detector should not be placed in extremely hot, cold, dusty, or damp locations. It is designed for indoor use and must be kept away from rain and moisture. Direct sunlight, low ventilation, or heat sources like heaters or radiators should be avoided to prevent fire hazards.
The device should not be aimed at the sun or overly bright places, as this can cause blooming or smearing, affecting the sensor's endurance. Improper use or replacement of the battery can result in an explosion hazard. Always replace the battery with the same or an equivalent type and dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions and local regulations. The device should not be exposed to corrosive gas or explosive situations, as these can cause equipment damage. Regular checks of the battery compartment's secure closure are important, especially to keep batteries away from children. If batteries are suspected to have been swallowed or placed inside any part of the body, immediate medical attention should be sought.
