When forming part of an
intruder alarm installation this compact system can utilise up to 128
microphones, strategically located within a premises, providing a means
by which a Halon Bank Monitoring Centre operator can listen-in to a
premises to confirm an alarm activation.
To allow confidentiality, the audio verification system has been
designed to only record the audio information when the alarm system has
been set and will only allow access following an alarm. To comply with
relevant privacy laws and provide
indication to the user, each microphone is fitted with an LED which
illuminates when it is in operation.
As well as providing live audio, the verification system will
continuously record information. When an alarm occurs up to 60 seconds
of recording is frozen giving audio stored prior to and after the alarm
event. This feature allows an operator to
listen to the events surrounding an alarm activation, for example a
window smashing
or a door being forced, giving confirmation that a burglary is in
progress.
The audio verification system is monitored by Halon Bank Monitoring
Centres who notify the Police and/or Keyholders as well as offering a
range of other services to meet your security monitoring needs.
