Pulsar Axion XM30F Thermal Monocular

- 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)

Lightweight and pocket-sized, the Axion XM30F monocular features a 320x240, 12 µm thermal sensor that will provide a detection range of up to 1300m of a standard 1.8m tall object, and a quick-change APS3 rechargeable battery that offers up to 7 hours of battery life on a single charge.
The rugged magnesium alloy housing has been designed with constant, hard use in mind, meaning the Axion XM30F is both light and strong in equal measure. Reliably protecting the internal components from shocks, drops, cold, heat, and moisture, the magnesium housing will also act as a heat sink; removing the heat from the electronics, minimising noise, and increasing the operational consistency during long-term observation. The IPX7 waterproof rating provides protection from heavy rain and snow and is even submersible in 1m of water for up to 30 minutes.
The frost-resistant, high-contrast AMOLED display uses improved colour rendering to provide a sharp and smooth image, even in adverse weather conditions.
8 colour palettes are available to allow the user to observe their field of view more effectively, optimising the Axion XM30F for specific tasks, and reacting to changing conditions in the observation area. White Hot, Black Hot, and Red Hot are perfect for object detection; Rainbow and Ultramarine for recognition and identification; and Red Monochrome, Sepia, and Violet for night-time observation.
Integrated video and still image recording capabilities, as well as Stream Vision 2 connectivity, means you ' ll never miss out on all of those once-in-a-lifetime moments. Capture and store videos or photos on the Axion XM30F ' s 16GB of internal storage, or share with friends via the cloud using the Stream Vision 2 App.
In brief the Axion XM30F features:
- Highly sensitive 320x240, 12 µm thermal imaging sensor
- High contrast frost-free AMOLED display
- 8 colour palettes
- Up to 1300m detection range
- Wide field of view
- Up to 7 hours battery life on a single charge (depending on temperature)
- Magnesium alloy body
- IPX7 waterproof
- Built-in video and still image recorder
- Stream Vision 2 compatible
