Climax VST-897EX Series: Enhanced Outdoor PIR Motion Sensor Camera
Secure Your Way of Life
Product Overview
The Climax VST-897EX Series represents a new generation of outdoor PIR motion sensor cameras, designed for enhanced security. These devices are equipped with over-the-lens infrared anti-masking for superior protection against tampering and feature Digitally Enhanced Detection Logic to significantly reduce false alarms compared to previous models. The series also offers optional AI functionality for improved detection precision and Over-the-Air (OTA) firmware updates for convenient remote system upgrades. The VST-897EX-Solar models integrate a solar power system, allowing them to charge continuously via sunlight, providing self-sustaining energy and reducing maintenance requirements.

Key Features
- Digitally Enhanced Detection Logic: Analyzes lux levels, temperature, and environmental factors to accurately distinguish between human and non-human motion, minimizing false alarms.
- Anti-masking: Over-the-lens infrared detection instantly identifies any attempt to block, cover, or tamper with the device, essential for outdoor sabotage protection.
A diagram illustrates the anti-masking feature. A silhouette of a person is shown attempting to spray paint or cover the lens of the motion sensor. An infrared beam indicates that the sensor detects this tampering attempt.
- HDR Imaging: High Dynamic Range technology improves clarity in high-contrast lighting environments, ensuring visibility in both bright and shadowed areas.
A split image compares standard imaging with High Dynamic Range (HDR) imaging. The standard view shows a scene with harsh lighting differences, making some areas too dark and others too bright. The HDR view shows improved clarity and detail across both bright and shadowed areas, making it easier to identify objects and people.
- AI Functionality (Optional): Enhances detection accuracy by intelligently identifying images containing human figures, further reducing false alarms caused by environmental movement.
A diagram shows the motion sensor detecting a human figure. An overlay graphic, possibly representing AI analysis, highlights the human figure, indicating enhanced detection accuracy by identifying human presence.
- OTA Firmware Update: Supports Over-the-Air firmware updates, enabling remote upgrades and system enhancements without the need for on-site maintenance.
A diagram illustrates the Over-the-Air (OTA) firmware update process. A laptop is shown connected to a cloud icon, which in turn sends an update signal to the motion sensor, signifying remote system upgrades.
- SF1 HD Images and Faster Transmission: The device can transmit HD images to the Control Panel with faster speed, offering clearer visual verification and quicker response times for real-time security.
A sequence of small images displays the device capturing and transmitting high-definition images. The sequence shows a motion event being detected, an image being captured, and the image being sent quickly for verification.
- Integrated Solar Power System (Solar models only): Harnesses solar energy to continuously charge the built-in battery, ensuring long-term functionality for remote outdoor locations and reducing maintenance.
An illustration shows a solar panel mounted near the motion sensor, connected by a wire. The solar panel is depicted receiving sunlight, and a battery icon connected to the sensor shows a charge level of 90%, indicating continuous charging.
