ADI-Gardiner and GJD launch the 'Mini' Opal
'Mini' Opal is one of the most innovative, flexible and cost-effective Passive InfraRed detectors on the market and ideal for use in public places such as gardens or business showrooms.
Installers can also rely on a smart memory port that allows customisation of each TouchCenter with the contact information and corporate identity for each end-user company.
Innovative access control functions are combined with advanced intruder detection features to provide one integrated system that can be installed quickly, and functioning within minutes.
The end user benefits from exceptionally high levels of security, with maximum convenience in the form of one, simple-to-operate system.
The system's intelligent 'listening in', or audio verification and sequential verification facilities allows quick analysis of an alarm source and cause, reducing false alarms and increasing reliability.
An array of in-built communications peripherals enables Galaxy Dimension to use existing communication paths such as PSTN, ISDN or Ethernet to perform dual alarm signalling functions.
The system provides backwards compatibility with the Galaxy range, making retro fitting quick and easy.
For example, a legacy printed circuit board (PCB) can be easily replaced with a Galaxy Dimension PCB.
Existing cables can be used throughout the system, and the panel can communicate with the peripherals using CAT5 data cable.
Ongoing maintenance costs are reduced thanks to a secure remote management tool, allowing installers to receive automatic diagnosis and maintenance reports remotely, minimising the need for time-consuming and costly site visits.
Julie Hartley, intruder business product manager at ADI-Gardiner, welcomes the launch of Galaxy Dimension: "The pioneering technology used in Galaxy Dimension is based on 50 years continuous development in the security industry".
"Feedback so far has been extremely positive from both new and existing customers".
"This truly represents fully integrated access and intruder security, with the added benefit of offering state-of-the-art user access through the TouchCenter keypad.".
