Ajax Smart Light Switch - LIGHTCORE (1-GANG)
- CCTV Lens Guide
- Hard Drive Size Guide
Unless selecting a vari-focal camera (with an adjustable lens) It is important to select the correct camera lens option for where the camera is to be positioned. A smaller lens will give you a wider angle but will be "zoomed out more", while a bigger lens will narrow the angle down and "zoom in more". See below to give you some idea on angles of Megapixel HD Cameras:
Lens in mm | Approx Viewing Angle (degrees) | Ideal Distance (metres) | Typical usage/notes |
---|---|---|---|
2.8 | 106 | <6 | For seeing as much of the immediate area as possible such as above a doorway/low down/garage soffits (edges can appear slightly warped/distorted) - clearly "zoomed out" |
3.6/4 | 83-90 | <12 | A great general purpose option giving great coverage still in the corner of a room or higher up on second floor soffits with less distortion - more of a natural "zoom" |
6 | 56 | 6-20 | Narrows down the angle and zooms in to look past the immediate area a little to gain more detail - down a driveway for example from higher up |
12 | 24 | 20+ | Zooms in significantly more to look at a gate, entrance or adjascent building |
16 | 19 | 24+ | As above but more so |
The amount of hard drive space you require is dictated by how many cameras, as well as their resolution, frame rate settings, and whether you have H.265 encoding enabled or not to save space (We advise turning it on to double the capacity shown below with ease).
Finally, you can often make your storage space last a lot longer by enabling motion-detected recording rather than continuous, especially if there are long periods of no activity (to perhaps double or more these figures again).
Resolution (Megapixels) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per camera (continuous - full 25 frames per second) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per 4 cameras (continuous - full 25 frames per second) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per 4 cameras (50% motion- 15 frames per second) |
---|---|---|---|
1 | 44 | 11 | 36 |
2 | 22 | 5 | 18 |
3 | 17 | 4 | 14 |
4 | 11 | 3 | 9 |
5 | 9 | 2 | 8 |
6 | 8 | 2 | 6 |
8 (4K) | 5 | 1 | 4 |
12 | 4 | 0.5 | 3 |
As a rule of thumb, we recommend 2 Terabytes for a 4 x 4/5MP HD camera setup, as this should give you approx 2 weeks using H.265 @ 20fps and that is on continuous, not motion-detected recording.
(You may only require the full 25 frames per second on certain cameras if things are fast-moving - ie above a till)

Ajax LIGHTCORE(1-GANG)
Smart light switch Ajax LightSwitch
Smart switches have become a necessary element of a security system or a set of smart home devices. All this is thanks to easing of use and the ability to set up an automated operation of lighting fixtures in the room. We offer you the chance to get acquainted with the smart wall switch LightSwitch from Ajax, with a number of features and variability of execution. Smart wall switch LightSwitch from Ajax is a reliable security system component designed for user convenience. A smart switch with a large touch panel that is activated by pressing or non-contact — just bring your hand closer than 15 mm. Thanks to the soft backlight, it is easy to spot the switch in the dark. With the LightSwitch smart touch switch, you can not only turn floor lamps and overhead lights on and off but also control curtains and curtains, even if this needs to be done remotely. With a smart switch from Ajax, the user can set the lights to turn on in the room according to a schedule, on alarm, or when the object is disarmed. The LightSwitch smart wall switch is available in eight colors, single-gang, two-gang, and pass-through versions.
Features of the smart switch LightSwitch from Ajax
The smart light switch from Ajax is controlled and configured remotely using a Jeweller radio connection. Thanks to the wireless two-way protocol, the switch communicates with the control panel at a distance of up to 1100 meters, provided there are no obstacles. Proprietary wireless technology for alarm and event transmission protects the device from tampering with floating key block encryption. Thanks to the Jeweller technology, the user of the Ajax security system receives instant notifications in the Ajax applications, the event log is also available there - a kind of "history" of the device's operation. The radio signal strength is automatically adjusted to reduce power consumption and radio interference. All data that is stored and transmitted is protected and encrypted. And to prevent radio interference and jamming, radio frequency hopping is used. In case of connection loss, the device will detect the problem within 36 seconds. The detection time depends on the communication technology settings. When the LightSwitch protection is triggered, the smart light switch deactivates the power and sends a message to the Ajax applications for PCs and mobile phones. Works on lighting devices of insufficient power (up to 5 W). For low power lighting fixtures, a capacitor is included with the device.
With the LightSwitch smart switch, the user can set up automated scenarios such as:
The user can control the lighting according to a schedule, the light can turn on in response to an alarm, respond to a change in the armed mode or to pressing another LightSwitch in the armed room. Also, you can set the auto-off timer for the LightSwitch wall smart switch.
The LightSwitch is compatible with the following control panels and signal repeaters:
- Hub Plus
- Hub 2 (2G)
- Hub 2 (4G)
- Hub 2 Plus
- Hub Hybrid (2G)
- Hub Hybrid (4G)
- ReX
- Rex 2
