Integrating access control and fire detection

Integrating Access Control and Fire Detection

Most fire jurisdictions require that all doors are automatically unlocked during a fire alarm emergency to ensure a fast exit for those inside the building and a fast entry for the firefighters to do their job. This means the door locking methods (typically electric strikes or electro-magnetic locks)—that are powered and controlled by an Access Control Unit (ACU)—must be kept unlocked during a fire alarm emergency. Fire relay is key product to execute this operation.

What is a fire relay or Output Module?

A output module or control module or fire relay is a switch that sits between the fire system control panel and the power source to the door locking methods. While there are different types of fire relays and different ways to configure them, the job of a fire relay is simple: when there’s a fire alarm, the fire relay unlocks the selected doors.

In an access control system, the fire relay is typically installed inside or near the ACU, and connects the ACU to the fire alarm control panel—as shown in this diagram. Any brand Access Control System can be integrate with Fire, some brand have dedicated port on controller, someone not. You need to verify before getting order. Below arrangement we have test in our experience centre.

Installing a fire relay can be expensive. Follow these tips to get the best pricing.

Lack of a fire relay is one of the most common and expensive surprises we see during customer site surveys. If you’re working with an existing building fire system and it doesn’t already provide a fire relay, you’ll need to get a quote from your building’s fire system provider to install one. 

Unfortunately, the cost of installing a new fire relay can vary significantly. We’ve seen fire relay quotes ranging from Rs. 4000 to Rs. 8000, but there are ways to negotiate for the best pricing. It’s best to include a fire relay as part of your lease agreement with your building management company. If that’s not an option, ask them to negotiate for a fire relay with the building fire system provider on your behalf. Your building management company will likely get better pricing.

If you are building out a new space, you can make a fire relay a part of the general contractor bid so it’s included in the fire alarm system design. Similar to the building management company, your general contractor who is in a position to give repeat business to the fire system provider is more likely to obtain better pricing. Before ordering verify contractor confidence and related document.

Each every manufacture has this module or relay to operate 3rd party equipment Like: Access Control, PA system, Fire Damper, Smoke Damper, AHU etc. If you have Edwards Fire Panel, then only Edwards’s module will be work with proper programming same as Notifier, ESSER, Autronica, GST, Gent any addressable fire brand. If you are not confirm lets contacts us we will guide you free of cost.

The control outputs from a fire alarm control unit can also be sent out on a signaling line circuit (SLC) to an addressable output module, which can open or close a contact based on information sent from the fire alarm control unit on the SLC to the COMM terminals. This is beneficial because multiple output modules can be controlled by the same SLC, which can control each module separately. For example, all output modules controlling all of the door hold opens in a building could be on the same SLC, but based on the specific input to the control unit, only specific doors can be closed. If all of these modules were on the same control circuit, the control unit would only be able to close all the doors.

Video Surveillance in Parking Lots

Video Surveillance in Parking Lots a short Note 

Parking lots can benefit greatly from the security provided by Video Surveillance. Did you know that 80% of crimes at offices, malls and other retail outlets take place in the parking lot? Parking lots have unique security needs – with risks for both owner and customer. A comprehensive video security system can help protect both your property and your customers, helping your business remain competitive and your customers satisfied.

Benefits of Installing CCTV in Parking Garage:

Prevent theft – Many thieves see parking lots as potential gold mines – miles and miles of cars or personal property that they can take. Visible security cameras can help deter thieves from breaking into cars on your lot, and can help aid law enforcement in identifying criminals who do rob cars on your lot. Cameras can also help prevent theft of store property – shopping carts, outdoor displays, tables and chairs, landscaping, etc.

Improve image – Customers are undoubtedly the most essential aspect of many businesses. Keeping your customers happy and giving them a sense of safety and peace of mind when they're shopping at your business establishes a sense of trust and loyalty.

Liability issues It's inevitable that an accident will happen in your parking lot. Whether it's a car crash, a slip, or an errant shopping cart denting cars, video surveillance is an easy way to avoid costly liability cases.

Remote monitoring – Advances in security camera technology have made it easy to check up on your parking lot security cameras at any time of day, from anywhere in the world. A system of IP Cameras managed by a NVR (Network DVR or Network Video Recorder) transmits your footage over the internet so you're never far away. This technology gives you the power to act quickly on security issues from anywhere.

AI in building automation and HVAC

 AI in Building Automation & HVAC

The today world technology keeps moving on an exponential growth rate and not in linear, whereas artificial intelligence started footprinting on all industry it possible before we proceed further how artificial intelligence used in building automation?

let us go through some basics of artificial intelligence terms.

What is Artificial Intelligence(AI)?

·       AI branch of computer science dealing with the simulation of intelligent behaviour in computers.

·       AI or artificial intelligence helps machines to learn from experiences (otherwise called as machine learning) and adjust to new inputs and work as a human.

·       Almost all technology giant  companies like Google, Microsoft, Amazon started involving AI concepts in their services for examples,

Google translate uses AI, where translating techniques keeps an updating/learned/suggested to google machines to give better accuracy.

Google Assitant uses AI, where it used to assist the user needs based on natural voice by processing various AI algorithm to detect the user’s voice and predict the better result.

Amazon and other e-commerce website are providing recommended products based on the user experience -behind this concept, it is not implemented with the only pre-defined program but also used various AI algorithms to predict the user recommended products with high accuracy which help them bring million of revenues for e-commerce owner.

What is Machine Learning?

·       Machine learning is technically a branch of Artificial intelligence which is limited to or more specific than the overall concept of artificial intelligence. Machine learning is an idea for machines to collect a set of data to process and learn with an advanced algorithm to predict the better output.

·       otherwise, we can say machine learning is capable of changing the program themselves.

What is Deep Learning?

·       Deep learning is a subset of machine learning.

·       Deep learning is related to deep artificial neural networks which are set of an algorithm that has a new set of record in accuracy for many complex problems.

Above terms and definition are just basic about artificial intelligence and proceed with a further post to understand how artificial intelligence service of software used in building automation.

Comparison Metrics for Intrusion Panels

 Comparison Metrics for Intrusion Panels

In this note, we reviews fundamental features and attributes for evaluating and comparing intrusion alarm panels.  These criteria are:

·        Number of Hardwired Zones

·        Number of Wireless Zones

·        Number of Keypads Supported

·        Multiple User Codes Supported

·        IP Programming and Control

·        Advanced Features

·        System Expandability

·        Video/Access/Fire Integration

·        Dealer Only

·        Installation & Commissioning

Inside we define and describe each of these criteria.

Comparison Chart

The ability to condense the 10 points into a standard format is critical for comparing systems to each other. Conceptually, these factors form a graphic like this example:

For quick 'executive summary' level comparison, a chart is useful. However, our standard report method includes detailed descriptions of each of those 10 points. In the sections below, we describe in detail each category.

Number of Hardwired Zones

How many areas a panel can monitor is a core feature. Keeping track of number of sensors is too simplistic and not always helpful.  Many sensors can often be connected in series, for example in a bank of windows several sensors may be wired together in a chain and connected to the panel in one circuit. If one contact opens, the entire zone the circuit is connected to alarms with no specific indication of which sensor is reporting trouble.  

However, granularity can be achieved when zones are associated with one or a small number of sensors in an building's area. In this way, comparing number of zones is a useful metric.

Number of Wireless Zones

Not all panels or systems support wireless sensors.  Moreover, some panels may only support wireless with optional equipment or in one specific zone. As with hardwired, comparing wireless zones is the standard attribute.

Number and Type of Keypads Supported

For many systems, the type and ability to have multiple input keypads is a major consideration.  While most alarm systems support one installed keypad, the location where it is installed may be inconvenient for quick access by users in all protected areas. Also, the utility of a basic alpha-numeric pad cannot be compared to a full graphic touchscreen that may display or even sound more descriptive messages or be integrated with other systems like video surveillance.

Multiple User Codes Supported

Akin (সদৃশ) to key control or access control, 'user codes' should be assigned to and may be provisioned differently for individual users. Basic alarm systems may support 20 user codes and be more than enough for a typical residential install, but that number may be too limited or small for small commercial use.

Likewise, each code may carry different privileges, from a 'master' configured to do anything, to a 'temporary' that may expire after one use that is only valid for a specific range of hours.

IP Programming and Control

Not all panels have a web or network interface for notification, control, or programming from a networked device.  While this may not be a major dealbreaker for a simple user, the expectation of easy programming, use, and integration often depend on this feature.

Noting the options and type of IP connectivity is key for modern systems, but many systems lack it or require additional parts to make it happen. This category also indicates the usefulness and/or cost app-based or remote access controls.

Advanced Features

Comparing additional non-essential, but still valuable, attributes of individual systems is key. For example, 'line supervision', or the ability to detect weather sensors on a circuit are tampered with, is not often a major consideration in residential or even small commercial systems, but is often critical in high-security applications. Likewise, noting how many events can be logged into panel memory may make a big difference in some designs but not all.

System Expandability

The maximum number of zones a system supports often require additional hardware or modules to achieve that what is available by default on a stock panel. Additionally, the supported number is often different than the individual number of hardwired zones plus wireless zones available from expansion hardware.

In other cases, hardware zone expanders may physically support connecting hundred of zones, while the underlying panel only supports a fraction of that number. Noting 'expandability' clears up potential confusion.

Video/Access/Fire Integration

In terms of tying other systems into the intrusion system, the variation and ability of supported systems is substantial. Some systems support basic access control or video surveillance camera integration by default, while others require additional hardware or software for proprietary devices. Others may not support any integration at all.  Understanding the options are important comparison factors.

Dealer Only

Understanding the availability, support, and pricing structure behind a platform is another key information point.  Many alarm products are not available via distribution, and understanding this point often is a factor is weighing buying and support options.

Installation & Commissioning

Check installation team shouldn’t hide any password, must now share installed sensor details with others. Select professional and they must invite you to put password and user-id creation. They must trained you in easy way and handover all document related product and there company details for telephonic support. 

If you still aren't sure how you manage your building / establishment/ Shop Burgler alarm system or Intrusion Alarm System, feel free to get in touch with one of our experts via ssaintegrate@gmail.com. Before selecting vendor / installer check and verify they are authorized or not to execute your Burglar or Intrusion Alarm system work. It’s suggested Burglar alarm or Intrusion Detection & Alarm System commissioned by certified professional.
