Microwave Technology
Anti-Crosstalk System (Patent Pending)
Because Optex's unique microwave technology allows the design of antenna settings differently from conventional methods, the Anti-Crosstalk System of the MX-40PI prevents interference from other microwaves. When several detectors are placed in combination in one area, false alarms may occur due to matching frequencies, because microwaves from each detector may cause interference with each other. But the MX-40PI greatly reduces interference to prevent false alarms. And if noise does enter the antenna and causes microwave interference, the Noise Reduction Circuit of the MX-40PI cancels out these noises to prevent unwanted alarms.
The high-quality, highly-reliable MX-40PI solves an undeniable problem for the combination sensors --- the false alarms caused by interference from other microwaves.

Passive Infrared Technology
Quad Zone Logic (Patent Listed)
The highly accurate and reliable detection pattern will maintain its sensitivity through the entire detection area, even in high temperature or low contrast environments. Quad Zone Logic creates an extremely high vertical zone density, two or three times the size of conventional PIRs. These taller zones capture the entire body mass and enable detection of even the smallest temperature contrast against the background. In addition, the vertical detection density has been improved to take into account dead zones created by furniture or partitions.

High Reliability
Ideal Detection Area
The MX-40PI creates an integrated detection area. This enables the microwave detection area to synchronise to the PIR detection area, achieving higher detection performance and preventing errors and false alarms.

Spherical Lens Design
With uniform distance between each lens segment and the pyroelectric elements, the spherical lens provides a precise focal length to each of the multiple lens segments. This enables each lens segment to precisely face its detection area and creates detection zones without distortion, achieving a new level in lens design precision. Spherical design also makes lens construction tough against outside forces and highly resistant to damage from disturbances to the lens.

Noise Reduction Function
The Noise Reduction Circuit provides high-reliability performance against outside noise, such as electromagnetic interference and especially noise from fluorescent lights. False alarms are thus greatly reduced.

Easy Installation
|
Easy Microwave Range Selector
The MX-40PI allows simple two-step adjustment. Setting the range selector to short or long-range detection sensitivity according to the room size, makes adjustment during installation much easier and less time-consuming.

Easy Wiring Knockouts
The PC board is removable for simple wiring, and just by using a screwdriver, a firm tap will easily remove the knockout.
