Protection for Payment Centers

This document links you to applications of departments that are related to this type of facility. Click the links below to see related design information.

Payment Centers have one or more tellers that serve the public taking payments and issuing receipts. Security is a challenge in payment centers, and consideration for panic systems, CCTV Cameras and Intrusion Detection capabilities is ideal.

Solving Payment Center Issues

There are a number of applications that support the need to increase security and reduce operating costs of a facility. The system provides a number of ways to meet the facility's security needs and requirements.
 

Application

Benefits to Facility User

Intrusion Detection

When the building is closed, the system senses unauthorized entry, and sounds a local alarm. The system notifies a monitoring station.

ATM Machine

Often located in unattended areas, these machines are subject to intrusion, vandalism, or theft.

Fire Alarm

The system monitors the building for smoke, heat, activation of a manual pull station, water flow, and fire supervisory devices. The system sounds a local alarm and notifies the monitoring station.

Door Access Control

The system restricts access through doors into high-security departments based on the user, his/her authority, the armed state of the department, and the time of day.

CCTV Cameras

The system integrates with a camera switcher. A user can centrally view and record selected departments.

Panic System

Initiate policies for critical events. Buttons initiate specific local alarms and specific notification of critical events to the monitoring station.

Department Arming by Partition

Arm and disarm various departments separately by users with programmable authority.

Arm and Disarm High Security Areas

Anti-ambush arming, Two-person disarming, High-Security Vault

Emergency Exits

Unauthorized exit causes the system to sound a local alarm.

Energy Management

The system can save energy and costs.

Humidity Threshold

The system senses high levels of humidity, provides a local indication and notifies the monitoring station.

Temperature Threshold Monitoring

The system senses high and low temperature levels, provides a local indication and notifies the monitoring station.

Remote Control

Remote switch to control lighting, cameras, pumps, sounders, indicators, generators, fans, and other powered devices.

Door Holder

The system holds doors open in high traffic areas. A Fire alarm or user control releases the door, allowing it to automatically close.

Door Auto Lock

The system automatically locks doors at closing time, allowing free exit for those finished with their business.

Gate Control

The system allows entry into parking facilities for authorized people, and restricts unauthorized people.

Vending Machine Security

The system senses tampering and unauthorized entry into vending machines.
