Symmetry™ Intercom Control Integration

The Symmetry™ Intercom Control Integration package provides a graphical intercom call station connection and logging capability from within the Access Control and Security Management System (SMS). Intercom call requests, connections and status are all shown on one easy to use screen. If required, intercom call stations may be grouped and routed to an unrestricted number of client machines. This is especially useful for busy sites, which may have a large number of call stations installed. The operator can make and receive intercom calls, plus log intercom activity. Extensive history reporting capabilities provide the operator with accurate call station connection information.

Full Intercom functionality is also available through the standard Map features available in the Business, Professional, Enterprise and Global Software packages.

Intercom requests can be reported as an alarm and the call connection can be made directly from the Alarms screen.

The operator can optionally associate an audio file and command action with each call station.

Call requests, connections and command actions are performed using the “View - Intercom Control Screen”, which is available for selection on any standard client machine that has an intercom station number defined. The status of all call requests and connections is updated on all client machines. The system prevents multiple operators from attempting to connect to the same call station at the same time.
