GJD provides AIM with alarm alert module

A GJD Manufacturing product story

Edited by the Buildingtalk editorial team Feb 17, 2010

GJD Manufacturing has developed the Detector Alarm Alert Module following the proven ability of GJD's D-Tect3 detector to dramatically reduce nuisance activations.

AIM (Advanced Independent Monitoring) urgently needed to review the increasing level of nuisance activations received in its Remote Video Response Centre (RVRC).

Following the success with the D-Tect3, AIM approached GJD to help resolve an ongoing industry wide problem.

The difficulty was to identify when faulty detectors were permanently in alarm or where an active beam had been blocked.

By working together, AIM and GJD developed a new concept, the Detector Alarm Alert Module (DAAM).

This system continually monitors the condition of the alarm inputs, providing either a local indication or an alert at the RVRC if the system integrity is compromised, when the CCTV system is in either a set or unset condition.
