Mall Security Systems

The Mall Sentry™ is ideal for malls that must employ 24 hour security staff. All security desk functions can be mobilized by hand held two way radio and hand held video monitor eliminating the need to staff a security desk at every moment. A security officer is free to patrol or respond to events and emergencies. At all times he or she will be able to:

Hear a voice announcement over hand held two way radios of all alarms from security devices, fire alarm panels, and other monitoring applications.
Acknowledge alarms by hand held two way radio.
Control equipment such as pumps, lights, or elevators.
Receive all incoming telephone calls or elevator emergency calls.
Make an outgoing telephone call with all activity logged at the computer.
Respond to intercom stations and have a two way conversation with the person accessing the intercom station all via hand held two way radio.
See the output of the closed circuit television system and control any cameras equipped with pan/tilt/zoom/focus functions.

Hand Held Two Way Radio Monitoring

Alarms or events will be broadcast as a user defined computer voice message over existing facility hand held two way radios. A message such as "Wireless pendant alarm south parking section 2" or "Door alarm at north entrance" will continue to broadcast every fifteen seconds until acknowledged either at the computer or by entering a unique personal ID number with a hand held two way radio. Alarms and events may be routed to any of 6 radio channels so that staff persons hear only alarms assigned to their area.

Security Monitoring

Monitor security points such as doors, motion detectors, and glass break detectors, all of which announce over hand held two way radios. A software scheduler will ignore alarms during user specified time windows. Use the scheduler to turn relays on and off in order to control lights, equipment, intercoms, or other applications. Integrate other facility security systems such as fire alarm panels to provide instant notification and description of location over hand held two way radios.

Wireless Duress Pendants

Wireless pendants may be issued to employees and tenants for security in the parking lots. Locators will indicate the location of persons who have activated their pendants.

Real Time Security Guard Tour System

The system will provide immediate notification if a guard tour station has not been posted (visited) within a user defined time period. All guard tour events are posted in real time as they happen. All events are posted with date and time and touring guards may report and log circumstances such as finding an unlocked door, broken window, or hazardous material.

View CCTV Cameras from Portable Monitors

Closed circuit television cameras that are positioned throughout the mall may be displayed in the roving staff person's vehicle in the parking lot or on a hand carried video receiver. Any camera may be called up for view automatically as the result of an alarm event or manually at the discretion of the roving staff person. Cameras equipped with pan/tilt/zoom/focus may be manipulated via the hand held two way radio.
