GUARDPOINT 10 SOFTWARE FEATURES

SECURITY CENTRE

The Security Center Module combines alarm, video, and access into one graphical screen. This module maximizes monitoring efficiency by allowing the operator to take actionable security decisions in real-time giving a clear visual live representation of the building’s status. Icons are placed on your site map to represent doors, cameras, alarm inputs, and relay outputs. Additional icons can be added to represent user-defined shortcuts and special functions to customize to the building requirements.

MULTI-SITE

The multi-site module is ideal for applications where access at many sites need to be managed centrally.  This module is highly useful for organizations with several independent branches that wish to let local branches view and control their own sites, while still retaining the ability for overall full management from the headquarters.

LIFT INTEGRATION

The lift module allows you to restrict floors to the tenants of a building by limiting which floor buttons can be pressed within the lift. The lift module also supports Mitsubishi’s Destination Oriented Allocation System (DOAS).

DOAS optimizes multi-car elevator systems by allocating cars efficiently according to the floors that passengers input while waiting in the hall, helping to reduce both wait and travel times.

VIDEO

The video module merges the alarm, video, and access control into a single software platform.

View the live video stream, playback video records, and take snapshots.
Identify the cardholder initiating the access by comparing his photo in the system to the video image.
Act upon an alarm: Modify the arm/disarm state of an alarm zone. Acknowledge and confirm a specific alarm, or all of them, directly from the video screen.
Override the lock/open state of a door.
The point, zoom-in, and focus the camera to a user-defined location to track details.
Control the live video stream or the playback on the tile in focus.
Consult the real-time access or alarm log and restructure it by sorting criteria with drag and drop.

The video center has been integrated with Milestone, OnSSI, TVT, and HIKvision systems.

GLOBAL REFLEXES

GuardPoint 10 has a user-friendly interface to set up your own cause and effect actions. Define automatic operations such as send an email, open a door, or start an alarm then specify the condition to trigger this.

For example:

IF a specific cardholder is ‘granted access’ THEN‘disarm the alarm zone’

IF ‘start of alarm’ THEN ‘lock all the doors’.

The user interface is highly graphical using drag and drop boxes which make the process very simple giving you the ability to customize the system to your needs

WHY ACCESS CONTROL?

Access control systems enable you to control which people are allowed to gain entry to your building or restricted area. Access control systems replace the need for a set of keys or a costly security guard. An electronic access control systems offer the most efficient and convenient way to secure your building.

ADVANTAGES

Electronic access control systems are often centrally managed meaning the operator can immediately react to a crisis at the touch of a button. The operator can control everything from revoking access rights or opening and locking doors from the graphical display on the PC software. As well as this, the operator can also run reports to see how long people have been on site or to see who is in the building at any given time. Our access control system can save you time and money by automating many critical processes and giving you the ability to control and monitor all aspects of your doors.

ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY!

An electronic access control system gives you the ability to restrict access to people based on the credentials they present. The credential may be as simple as a pin code or as advanced as a finger print or iris. The most commonly used credential is a card or key tag. An access control card can work at a variety of distances depending on its technology type. For example: a long range reader and card can be used to open the barrier automatically when a car approaches.
