Extra Info
Flexible Device Management
The system is designed to support a wide range of connected devices, making it adaptable for both small-scale and large-scale security applications. It can accommodate up to 48 keyfobs for personal user control, 6 wireless sounders for loud on-site alarms, 8 keypads with built-in tag readers for convenient access management, and 4 wireless repeaters to extend communication range across larger buildings or outdoor spaces. This scalability ensures that the system can be tailored to residential homes, office spaces, or even multi-building facilities.
Video Verification
For enhanced situational awareness, the system integrates seamlessly with Hikvision IP cameras and PIR cameras (PIRCAMs). When an alarm event is triggered, users can receive real-time live video feeds or video clip notifications directly on their mobile app or via email. This feature allows for faster, more informed decision-making, enabling security staff or residents to visually confirm whether an alarm is genuine or false.
Cloud & Remote Access
The platform provides flexible and modern connectivity options, supporting configuration and monitoring through Hik-Connect and Hik-ProConnect mobile apps, the Web Portal, iVMS-4200 software, and the Hikvision Convergence Cloud platform. Whether managed by homeowners, building operators, or professional monitoring teams, the system ensures remote control, status checks, and alarm management from anywhere in the world.
Enhanced Communication
To maximize compatibility and reliability in alarm reporting, the system supports Hik-IP Receiver and Hik-IP Receiver Pro. It is also fully compatible with Sur-Gard and Ademco 685 protocols, ensuring that alarm events can be transmitted seamlessly to professional monitoring centers. This makes it suitable for integration into both residential monitoring contracts and commercial-grade security environments.
Built-in Indicators
For quick on-site status checks, the system includes multi-function LED indicators that provide clear visual feedback on essential conditions such as Arm/Disarm mode, active Alarms, Tamper events, Fault detection, Cloud connectivity, and Power status. These indicators make it easier for users and installers to assess the system’s operational state at a glance, without needing to open software or mobile apps.
Low-Maintenance Reliability
With support for long-lasting battery-powered devices and built-in diagnostics, the system is designed to minimize upkeep. Alerts for low battery, communication loss, or tamper attempts are automatically logged and reported, helping ensure uninterrupted protection.
Versatile Applications
Thanks to its scalability, video integration, and cloud connectivity, the system is well-suited for residential homes, apartments, small businesses, retail spaces, offices, and warehouses. Its ability to expand and integrate with third-party monitoring makes it a flexible solution for both individual users and professional installers.
