Vanderbilt is showing the latest version of its ACT Enterprise at Security Essen 2018, from September 25 to 28, at stand 6D90, with a focus on integration within the company’s products and with third-party systems. The latest ACT Enterprise features, which include integration with Vanderbilt’s SPC intrusion system, a rules mapping engine, and a smartphone app, were previewed at the IFSEC trade show in London in June.
Andrew Fulton, Head of Access Control Product Line at Vanderbilt says: “Our ACT Enterprise Apple and Android compatible apps mean real-time monitoring, user management and administration from your smartphone. You can enable and disable alarms, lock and unlock doors, authorise users and check who’s in and who’s out – wherever you are. Security has never been more convenient, and you’ve never been more in control.”
ACT Enterprise’s rules mapping enables configurations of various system inputs and outputs across the access control system, as well as integrated video and intruder elements of an integrated system.
Michael Moyna, Technical Product Marketing Manager at Vanderbilt, says: “The use of rules mapping simplifies the implementation of more complex events/alarms and associated actions for the installer/integrator, by permitting the creation of logical relationships between system elements via a drag-and-drop interface. For the end user, the addition of rules mapping ensures that system interactions can be seamlessly introduced on a system-wide basis, thus enabling a higher level of added value to be realised, both for security and business-based functionalities.”
A SPC-Milestone plugin enables users to control SPC from within the Milestone software. The plugin is for providing bi-directional communication. The plugin features options such as filters for event transmissions, and remote interaction based on customisable command profile.
Vanderbilt’s newly released SPC Wireless devices, which include detectors, panic buttons, fobs, and a transceiver, will also be on show. The devices were designed in response to growing consumer IoT trends, and as a result, presents the makers say a revenue opportunity for installers.
Ross Wilks, Head of Marketing Communications at Vanderbilt, says: “Installs for Vanderbilt’s SPC Wireless devices were designed to be hassle-free. In contrast, a wired solution can take, at a minimum, a day’s work fitting cable. By reducing time on site, Vanderbilt’s SPC Wireless can enable installers to get more work done elsewhere, essentially meaning more profits from more jobs.”
Vanderbilt will also be showing its Software-as-a-Service, with “how-to” demonstrations on ways that installers can get the most out of the company’s ACT365 and SPC Connect.
