INTEGRATED ACCESS CONTROL

Group Products

Full control with complete flexibility

Centaur will overcome
your access control challenge
Enhance security by eliminating the need for keys, which are easily lost or duplicated and
disappear when terminated employees fail to return them. Access cards can be disabled
instantly, or tagged with “lost”, “stolen” or “invalid” status.

Centaur’s Integrated Access Control Software offers you a complete access control
solution with integration management of CCTV, Fire and Intruder. From a single door
system to a complex multi-site installation with numerous card holders, Centaur is geared
to perform and gives you a level of flexibility never seen in the industry.

Access privileges for users can be modified on-line in real-time without issuing
new cards. Visitors can be issued access privileges in seconds. Individuals can be
tracked and daily reports generated on their movements. Highly sensitive areas
can be monitored real-time for maximum security.
Centaur grows with you as the needs of your facility evolve, the system can easily be
expanded to overcome any access control challenge.

module

can

associate

a

specific access control event with a video recording and let
you playback up to 60 seconds before and after that event,
from archived footage. It also lets you capture a video image
(frame) during the playback or live camera viewing in jpeg
format.
Display real-time video and compare the person accessing
a door to the picture associated in the database, with the
Frontview module.

Intruder alarm integration
Centaur’s intruder alarm integration will allow first access
to users who have the authority to disarm the system.
All other users will be denied access, regardless of their
normal access rights, until the system is disarmed. When
allowing the first authorized access, Centaur will send a
signal to disarm the intruder alarm system automatically.

Parking Management
Centaur’s Parking Management provides you with a real time
parking activity monitor. It allows you to quickly see how many
parking places are used, by which user and how many parking
spaces are available. Manually allocate or free-up parking
spaces. Activate a “PARKING FULL” sign, when the parking
capacity is reached. Finally, generate reports on parking usage
and activities.
