Professional FAQs
Q1: What makes the China Moneypro M12 unique compared to traditional radars?
A1: Unlike conventional radars, the China Moneypro M12 passive infrared detection, making it undetectable, silent, and highly effective for stealth surveillance in sensitive environments.
Q2: How does the dual-spectrum linkage improve detection?
A2: When an intrusion is detected via infrared, the system automatically cues a visible-light camera for zoomed-in observation, image capture, and evidence collection, ensuring multi-spectrum confirmation.
Q3: What is the maximum number of targets it can track?
A3: The system can track up to 128 simultaneous targets including humans, UAVs, vehicles, and ships across an 8 km detection radius.
Q4: Can it operate in harsh field conditions?
A4: Yes. With IP66 protection, an operating temperature range of −40 °C to +70 °C, and multi-layer anti-corrosion design, it is built for coastal, desert, and high-humidity environments.
Q5: Is the China Moneypro M12 suitable for off-grid or remote areas?
A5: Absolutely. It supports solar power supply and wireless AP transmission, enabling deployment in locations without fixed power or network infrastructure.
