UTC Fire & Security recently demonstrated the latest release of its video management software, TruVision Navigator 7, at the IFSEC security exhibition in London. TruVision Navigator 7 now works seamlessly with Interlogix TruPortal access control systems and IFS network switches, allowing end users to manage their entire security system from one single, easy-to-use interface.
With the new TruVision Navigator 7, users can configure and manage multiple TruPortal access control panels, add panel and door locations to a built-in interactive map and link cameras to doors to receive event notifications with live pop-up video verification. The new software also offers a built-in IFS network switch discovery service that provides switch login and configuration through its native web client.
“TruVision Navigator 7 is now more than just video management, it’s a complete, connected security system with cameras, recorders, network switches, and access control functionality,” says Paul Johnson, pre-sales engineer, UTC Fire & Security UK. “We’re continuing to invest in more tightly connected solutions that add increased value, convenience and functionality for our customers.”
Other new advanced video features in TruVision Navigator 7 include:
• The ability to drag and drop websites for native viewing and navigating in the viewer panel.
• Real-time device bandwidth monitoring.
• Logical device views and filtering that provides smart event management.
• Continued operation in a client-server configuration when the server is offline.
TruVision Navigator 7 can continue to be used as a powerful VMS. It offers recording of 360-degree cameras by de-warping the images natively within the software; customisable viewing panes that can be saved for one-click retrieval; remote device configuration capabilities and system health monitoring service that can reduce costly on-site maintenance service calls.
Integrated with TruPortal, the system can provide a fully-featured, web-based access control solution, scalable to secure up to 64 doors. And, with the ability to seamlessly add the full range of IFS high-performance networking switches users will be able to meet the needs of many demanding security environments.
“This integration equips our customers with a powerful centralised security solution that’s perfect for mid-sized commercial applications and small campus environments,” says Johnson.
New Interlogix TruVision range
New additions to the Interlogix TruVision camera range were also featured at IFSEC. The new TruVision 1080p HD-TVI PTZ units feature over-the-coax telemetry control that allows existing analogue cameras to be easily replaced without the need for additional cabling. Available in pendant and flush/ceiling versions, an IR variant allows for strong low-light performance. The cameras can also serve as a retrofit into legacy installations by connecting the unit with its standard 960H BNC output and RS-485/RS-422 connection.
When paired with the TruVision Navigator 7.0 software, installers can connect the latest generation TruVision HD-TVI PTZ camera through TVR12HD/44HD network recorders and control the camera’s on-screen display menu using the TruVision Navigator PTZ controls. Other benefits include IP66 rating, 30x optical (16x digital) zoom, true day/night and digital wide dynamic range.
“These exciting new additions to the TruVision range give installers and system designers an even wider selection of high performance HD cameras at great value,” says Johnson. “TruVision cameras are an excellence choice for many surveillance specialists, with models for a variety of key security and safety applications.”
