The Hikvision DS-PDC10DM-EG2-WE is the dual-technology version of the AX PRO outdoor curtain detector — the same narrow directional beam as the DS-PDC10AM-EG2-WE, with a 24 GHz microwave sensor added alongside the PIR.
Why add microwave to a directional beam
A narrow outdoor PIR beam is still exposed to the things that trouble any outdoor detector — sun warming a wall, a passing vehicle's headlights, foliage moving at the edge of the beam. Requiring both the PIR and the microwave to agree cuts nuisance triggers on exactly the exposed, unattended positions a gate or perimeter beam typically occupies.
Same precise coverage
5° directional beam, up to 10 m wall-mounted or 5 m ceiling-mounted — aimed across a gateway, a gap in a fence, or a path between buildings, the same way as the PIR-only version.
Pet immunity, wall-mounted only
Up to 12 kg when wall-mounted; no pet immunity when ceiling-mounted, looking straight down.
Anti-masking
Reports a fault if the lens is covered or sprayed before a break-in attempt is made.
Walk-test each sensor
Separate LEDs — green for PIR, red for microwave, green+orange for mask, blue for alarm — show which sensor responded during commissioning.
Built for the weather
IP65, rated −25°C to +60°C, with an included L-shaped bracket.
Five years on batteries
Two CR123A cells give up to five years standby, reduced in sustained low temperatures.
Radio built for alarms
Tri-X two-way wireless at 868 MHz, AES-128 encryption, frequency hopping, free-space range 1.6 km. Front and rear tamper.

Worth knowing before you order
Choose this over the PIR-only version where the beam covers an exposed position — direct sun, passing traffic, nearby foliage — and reliability matters more than the modest price difference.
Still a directional beam, not an area detector. Aim it precisely across the crossing point you want covered.
It needs an AX PRO panel. Part of the AX PRO system only.
Frequently asked questions
What does the microwave add over the plain PIR version?
A second, independent confirmation before alarming, which cuts false triggers on exposed outdoor positions affected by sun, traffic or foliage.
Will it ignore my dog?
Only when wall-mounted, up to 12 kg.
What happens if someone covers the sensor?
Anti-masking reports a fault to the panel.
Does it work with other alarm panels?
No. It is a Tri-X 868 MHz device for Hikvision AX PRO panels only.
