:: Home :: Integrated System ::

Today most establish organization has either an Intrusion Alarm or Access Control or both. But most of them are either from different vendors or operate separately or independently. They have different operating system or procedure. To use the systems, the administrator has to learn how to operate and maintain the two systems’ database/parameter separately. If the administrator assign a staff permission to access a protect area after office hour, he/she again have to program the alarm system for the respective person to have authority to turn it off. If a report of the events is required, he/she has to get report from both systems. This is troublesome and time consuming and therefore made the job of administrator difficult. With Integrated system, the above problems are eliminated. This also provides immediate benefit like elimination of possible false alarm and greatly increases efficiency.

Integrated System is usually more powerful and therefore can expand to hundred of input zones, auxiliary outputs and access doors. The outputs can be used to interface with Lift Controller for Lift Access Control. These features allow control access of personnel to their respective floor in commercial building, apartment or condominium Therefore security is enhanced.

Other type of functions can include control of building services like lighting and air-condition. For example, system can turn off lighting or air-condition when there is no movement of personnel or when the alarm for the particular area is armed. This provide considerable energy and cost saving.

 

The Next Generation in Access Control And Security Management systems
   
Total Integration  
 
Security  
Up to 2000 detection points are monitored throughout the entire building. Each detection is protected against tampering and tested by the system regularly. Security events are reported immediately via a range of
communication options to Remote Monitoriung Stations, mobile phones, on-site computers abd pagers. All events are recorded for future reviews
   
Access Control  
Access through up to 250 doors, gates and turnstiles can be controlled and monitored. Flexible programming options allow full customisation of User permissions across a range of access control levels. Occupants only
have access to their permitted Areas, through doors and gates you designate and during the times you specify!
   
 
Multiple Tenants
The system maybe partitioned into up to 250 Tenancies or Areas, each capable of operating as a separate system. Security, Access and Automation may be programmed to operate individually for each Tenant, events being reported by Tenant’s choice of communication option. Users may be assigned permissions allowing them access to one or more Tenancies.
 
Facilities Manager

The Facilities Manager can fully administer all User and Access permissions via ACCEPT Windows based computer software. In addition, ACCEPT software gives full control of entities within the system such as doors, hearing, air-conditioning, lighting and other outputs such as pumps, garden sprinklers and gates.

Alarms and other specific events can be programmed to appear on the Facilities Manager’s computer screen to ensure that he/she remains up-to-date with what is happening within the building.

 
Lift Access

Lift Access may be controlled and monitored using the same card or key fob issued to the User for Door Access and Security. When the card of key fob is presented at the reader in a Lift Car, the User is only able to select a Floor from the specific list of Floors that has been assigned to him or her. Only one Floor may be selected each time a card or fob is presented and all selections are recording to review.

This feature provides a relatively simple access solution for those applications where office space is let on a “per floor” basis.

 
High Security Areas
Door Interlocking may be used in High Security Areas to ensure that only one door to this area is unlocked at any one time. Access through an interlocked door is not available whilst somebody else is using an associated interlocked door.
 
Energy Management
To minimize energy wastage, lights and other facilities may be automatically turned on when movement of a person entering a room is detected. They can then be turned off again when no movement has been detected for a specific time, as set by you.
 
Visitors, Contractors and Guests
The Concept System provides a contingency for visitors and contractors who attend your premises for short periods of time. Each visitor may be issued a proximity identification card which only valid between specific time and on specific days, as set by you.
These cards may be given restricted access through specific doors and to specific Floors and even made to cancel themselves upon their first use.
 
Building Services

Garden Sprinklers, Fountains or other utilities may be programmed to operate between specific times and on certain days. They may even be qualified by other conditions. (Garden Sprinklers will not activate if the moisture sensors indicate the ground is already moist).

Manual operation of utilities is also available, if desired, including control via computer or a mobile phone using GSM Short Message Service (SMS)

 
Car Park
Car Park entry may be restricted to specific users or use at certain times. Users must present a valid proximity identification card to enter or exit the site.

Separate “In” and “Out” boomgates and readers allow vehicles to be counted. The “Car Park Full” sign may be illuminated and the “In” boomgate disabled when all available spaces have been taken. The sign may be turned off again and the “In” boomgate re-enabled as vehicles leave spaces become available once again.
 
Networking and Security

Multiple panels and multiple computers may be networked to achieve Facilities Management on a grand scale! Many panels and many computers may be linked within the one building to extend system capabilities and allow management by multiple computer operators.

Furthermore, buildings may be linked nationally or even globally to achieve truly centralized Facilities Management and proprietary Security Monitoring. Concept represents the ideal choice for those corporations seeking a national or international solution.

 
Why should I install a Concept Access 4000 System?

Furthermore, incredible expandability and on-going product development and support, ensure that a Concept Access 4000 system purchased today is a long term investment in your security management plan, avoiding the need to replace a system that will not keep pace with your needs. Concept Access 4000 provides a totally integrated solution with unrivaled scalability and flexibility.

What is integrated technology?
The Concept Access 4000 seamlessly combines Security Monitoring, Access Control of Doors and Lifts and Building Management Technologies within the one system.

 

   
Why should i install an integrated system?

Integration of technologies offers considerable control over the movements and actions of staff and visitors as well as significant cost savings for the property owner, tenant or manager.

For example

All users are assigned individual permissions within the system and access to and from any Area, movement through Doors and access via Lifts etc are strictly controlled, reported and recorded.
Reduction in the time required to administer separate systems and produce composite reports. All information is now contained within the same system and compatibility of data across applications is not an issue.
Having granted access to a User, the system automatically turns off the security alarm to reduce unnecessary alarms events and turns on the lights to prevent accidents.
Reduced cost due to the reduction in cabling and labour required to install and maintain individual systems.
Reduced cost as a result of the system’s ability to ”share” detectors, inputs and outputs across technologies. For example, the same motion detector used to detect intruders after-hours may be utilized to automatically turn on lights in the room when somebody enters during business hours. If there has been no movement in the room for a given time, the lights may be turned off, further reducing costs through more efficient energy management.

The scope of integrated applications and the inherent cost savings are only bound by your imagination!

 

Component of a Concept System
Control module  

The control Module is the heart of the Concept 3000 and Concept Access 4000 system.

By connecting an Inner Range GSM Modem to the Concept 3000 or Access 4000 system via a UART port and using the “GSM Data” Comms Task, the Concept system is able to use the GSM mobile phone network to:
Accept a data call from a PC running PC Direct and communicate at 9600 Baud
Send IRFast to an FE100 Central Station Receiver as either the main communications path or as a backup task
Send text alarm information to any GSM mobile phone using the GSM Short Message Service (SMS)
Accept text commands sent from any GSM (with SMS) mobile phone to control areas, home auxiliaries and zone isolations and to report status changes back to the mobile phone.

The status and call progress of the GSM Modem can be followed or inspected via a comprehensive review log, including display of received signal strength to ensure installation is reliable.

Various GSM networks offer competitive rates for data calls and sms services, allowing the “GSM Data” Comms Task to be used as the primary communication path.

Analog Module  
The Concept 3000 / Access 4000 Analog module is an interface for analog quantities within the Concept system. The analog module can be programmed so that when an analog level from any one or more of the 4 independent analog inputs exceeds or drops below a pre-programmed trigger point an alarm or seal signal can be generated and an auxiliary operated. Analog levels can be monitored or controlled in scaled units at any LCD Terminal or remotely off-site
Serial Temperature Sensor  

The Serial Temperature Sensor is polled by the Analog module every 2 seconds. The sensor records the temperature and converts the temperature value to an 8 bit digital value. The digital data is then sent to the Analog is supplied with a wall mounting kit and requires no further calibration.

Temperature may be polled every 2 seconds
Wall mounting kit supplied
No calibration required
