Updated January 24, 2022
DoorProtect is a wireless door and window opening detector designed for
indoor use. It can operate up to 7 years from a pre-installed battery and capable
to detect more than 2 millions openings. DoorProtect has a socket for
connecting an external detector.
The functional element of DoorProtect is a sealed contact reed relay. It consists of
ferromagnetic contacts placed in a bulb that form a continuous circuit under the effect
of a constant magnet.
DoorProtect operates within the Ajax security system, connecting via the
protected radio protocol. Communication range is up to 1,200 m in the
line of sight. Using the or integration modules,
DoorProtect can be used as part of third party security systems.
The detector is set up via for iOS, Android, macOS and Windows. The
app noties user of all events through push notications, SMS and calls (if
activated).

The Ajax security system is self-sustaining, but the user can connect it to the
central monitoring station of a private security company.

Operating Principle
Buy opening detector DoorProtect
1. DoorProtect
2. Big magnet (should be placed to the right of the detector)
3. Small magnet (should be placed to the right of the detector)
4. LED indicator
5. SmartBracket attachment panel (perforated part is required for actuating
the tamper in case of any attempt to dismantle the detector. Don’t break it
out!)
6. External detector connection socket
7. QR code
8. Device switch
9. Tamper button
DoorProtect consists of two parts: the detector with a sealed contact reed relay,
and the constant magnet. Attach the detector to the door frame, while the
magnet can be attached to the moving wing or sliding part of the door. If the
sealed contact reed relay is within the coverage area of the magnetic eld, it
closes the circuit, which means that the detector is closed. The opening of the
door pushes out the magnet from the sealed contact reed relay and opening the
circuit. In such a way, the detector recognizes the opening.
Attach the magnet to the RIGHT of the detector.
A small magnet works at a distance of 1 cm, and the big one — up to 2 cm.
After actuation, DoorProtect immediately transmits the alarm signal to the hub,
activating the sirens and notifying the user and security company.
Pairing the Detector
Before starting pairing:
Only users with administrator rights can add the device to the hub.
How to pair the detector with the hub:
1. Following the hub instruction recommendations, install the on your
smartphone. Create an account, add the hub to the app, and create at least
one room.
Ajax app
2. Switch on the hub and check the internet connection (via Ethernet cable
and/or GSM network).
3. Make sure that the hub is disarmed and does not update by checking its
status in the app.
For detection and pairing to occur, the detector should be located within the
coverage area of the wireless network of the hub (at the same facility).
1. Select theAdd Device option in the Ajax app.
2. Name the device, scan/write manually the QR Code (located on the body
and packaging), and select the location room.
3. SelectAdd— the countdown will begin.
4. Switch on the device.
The request for connection to the hub is transmitted for a short period of time at
the moment of switching on the device.
If pairing with the hub failed, switch off the detector for 5 seconds and retry it.
If the detector has paired with the hub, it will appear in the list of devices in the
Ajax app. The update of the detectors statuses in the list depends on the
detector ping interval set in the hub settings. The default value is 36 seconds.
Connecting to Third-Party Systems
To connect the detector to a third-party security central unit using the
or integration modules, follow the recommendations in the user
manual of the respective device.
States
The states screen contains information about the device and its current
parameters. Find the DoorProtect states in the Ajax app:

What is chime and how it works
No — the device operates normally and
transmits all events.
Lid only — the hub administrator has
disabled notications about triggering on
the device body.
Entirely — the device is completely excluded
from the system operation by the hub
administrator. The device does not follow
system commands and does not report
alarms or other events.
By number of alarms — the device is
automatically disabled by the system when
the number of alarms is exceeded (specied
in the settings for Devices Auto
Deactivation). The feature is congured in
the Ajax PRO app.
By timer — the device is automatically
disabled by the system when the recovery
timer expires (specied in the settings for
Devices Auto Deactivation). The feature is
congured in the Ajax PRO app.
