By andromeda security center. Andromeda is a unique security management software. and instruction manual

The Andromeda® Stationary Objects Monitoring System, produced by the St. Petersburg company Sea-Nord, is one of the most common hardware and software systems used to organize remote radio protection of stationary objects. Technical specialists of centralized monitoring consoles of non-departmental and fire protection, private security companies and security structures of large factories, being the main users of the system and receiving a rather complicated and powerful tool to build a radio security network, they often ask a number of similar and, at the same time, important questions. Today, the answers to some of these questions are in front of you.

Through what communication channels is service and alarm information transmitted from the on-site device to the Centralized Monitoring Console?

Object devices in the Andromeda® System can transmit more than 500 different events via modern dial-up telephone communication channels, via a radio channel in the frequency ranges of 27 MHz, 146-174 MHz and 400-470 MHz, as well as using the network mobile operators GSM standard. It is important to note that on-site devices are programmed in such a way that service and alarm messages can be transmitted at different radio frequencies.

Is it possible to transfer disturbing information from the Central Monitoring Station to remote consoles and directly to detention groups in automatic mode?

Information, in accordance with the user's request, can be automatically transmitted to remote consoles via dedicated and dial-up communication lines, via a radio channel, and also via the Internet. In addition to the above communication channels, detention groups and owners of protected objects can receive messages via a paging network or a GSM network.

How to expand the coverage area of the Central Monitoring Station via radio channel? Why are only simplex repeaters used in the system?

To expand the range of the system over a radio channel, intelligent repeaters are used that perform special treatment messages that restore a weak signal and allow you to set various signal transmission parameters. The Andromeda® system uses simplex repeaters, i.e. those that operate on the same frequency alternately for receiving and transmitting. This is due to the fact that the presence of a large number of programmable repeater parameters reduces signal losses to a minimum, and the cost of a simplex repeater is much lower than the cost of a duplex one.

- Is it possible to gradually increase the capacity of the Central Station?

If during the initial acquaintance with the equipment of the Central Station your choice was the Medium-capacity Console AED PS-150, which operates only on 2 radio channels, serves up to 150 objects and has no connection with a personal computer, then in the future, with the development of the station, it can easily be to be upgraded to the PS-512 AED medium-capacity console, which is capable of serving up to 512 objects and has access to a PC.

You can easily increase the number of input channels in the Base Unit of the Central Station BBCS-12. To do this, it is enough to purchase additional radios (AND MRK-2) or telephone modules (AND MTF-2) and install them in the Base Unit.

To upgrade the Central Station based on the Sentinel board, the processor control driver must be replaced.

Information about the object, which is displayed for viewing in the object card in the "Operator on duty" module and some others, is not very conveniently located. Is it possible to change the shape of this card? In addition, I would like to be able to edit information about the object directly in the card.

Such features are planned to be implemented in the next version 2.5. Andromeda® software. It will be possible not only to change the form, but also to edit the information that the card contains.

Is it possible to use an already installed object equipment other companies in the Andromeda® stationary object monitoring system?

If the facility has already installed fire and security alarm equipment from other manufacturers, then in order to work in the Andromeda® system via a radio channel, it is necessary to equip the facility with a TR-100 SA transmitter (5 inputs) or a PIF-01 pulse format converter. In the case of signaling only by telephone, the vast majority of control panels that have digital dialers and operate in standard pulse protocols do not need to be upgraded at all. The processors of the Central Station Sentinel and BBCS-12 are multi-format, i.e. they can receive messages from on-site devices via telephone channels in various protocols, including Contact ID.

What equipment can you offer to solve the problems of protecting garage cooperatives, cottage and summer cottage settlements?

To create Base stations for monitoring systems of such objects, we offer special equipment that can operate over a radio channel, including in the MW range, based on the Medium-capacity Console AND PS-150 or AND PS-512. NORD-8/16H (SPIDER-H) type panels and control devices based on Touch Memory keys (KDU-TM, PIU-16TM, KREK-16/128) are ideal as on-site equipment. For the protection of garage cooperatives, the most profitable, from an economic point of view, is the use of the KREK-16/128 control device, which allows you to organize the protection of up to 16 objects on the basis of one NORD-8/16N panel.

- What kind of assistance does C-Nord provide to users in resolving organizational issues?

Firstly, when purchasing the basic equipment of a monitoring station, we offer each buyer to train technical personnel in our company according to one of the programs we offer.

Secondly, the employees of the firm provide consulting services and provide real assistance in compiling project documentation to the radio network, which is sometimes a key issue in the allocation of radio frequencies.

Fourthly, C-Nord holds annual technical seminars for users of Andromeda® monitoring system equipment. During these seminars, participants have the opportunity to discuss all their questions, as well as exchange experience not only with employees of our company, but also with representatives of other organizations - owners of Central Stations from different parts of the country.

How is warranty and post-warranty service for remote users carried out? What is the service life of the equipment included in the Andromeda® Stationary Objects Monitoring System?

Each user of the equipment of the monitoring system for stationary objects "Andromeda®", having signed a contract for general system maintenance, in case of problems with the operation of the equipment, can contact the service at any time technical support customers by phone, fax or e-mail: [email protected] . The specialists of our company will give necessary recommendations and will try to solve your problems as soon as possible.

The company provides warranty and post-warranty maintenance of the basic and site equipment of the system both at its own production site and with the help of seven certified service centers operating in Russia.

Practice has shown that for more than 10 years the equipment of the Andromeda® system can operate without repair. Years of experience operation of equipment, sale of more than 450 base monitoring stations and more than 40,000 sets of on-site equipment in Russia and the CIS countries proved the reliability and non-failure operation of the entire complex of the Andromeda® monitoring system for stationary objects.

5 Design and operation of the SPI

5.1 Principle of operation.

5.1.1 The system can work simultaneously both via telephone lines (from 2 to 4 lines) and via radio channel (from 1 to 2 channels).

5.1.2 The transfer of information occurs when the state of the on-site device changes. Messages from the control panel are transmitted in the form of a digital message encoded in a specialized format. The received message is decrypted by the central station processor, and then processed by the monitoring program and output to the printer. Simultaneous output of information to the software and the printer makes it possible to exclude the loss of information in case of any malfunctions in the monitoring program.

5.1.2 Depending on the type of on-site device and its service capabilities, information about the state of the object is transmitted to the central station. PPC systems can transmit a wide range of information:

Arming (with an indication of the user who armed);

Disarming (indicating the user who disarmed);

Partial arming (with indication of the user who armed);

Intrusion alarm (indicating the zone number);

Fire alarm (indicating the zone number);

Panic button (indicating the zone number);

Absence and restoration of power supply 220V;

Discharging and restoring the backup battery;

Opening and closing the body of the device;

Automatic test message;

Checking the functionality of the telephone communicator and radio transmitter;

5.1.3 From 8 to 96 loops can be connected to the control panel, depending on the type. The number of loops is increased using zone expanders. Arming and disarming of the device is carried out by the user directly at the facility using an electromechanical lock by turning the key or using the keypad by entering a personal code. The object becomes and disarms automatically without the participation of the central station personnel.

5.1.4 Passive detectors that have closed or open relay output contacts are connected to the control panel.

5.1.5 The software of the base unit of the central station receives and displays on the screen all the information that is transmitted to the central station by on-site devices.

5.1.6 The base unit emits a sound signal of different tone and duration in accordance with the type of message received. An indication of disturbing, armed and disarmed objects is given. The program provides for the operator to work out alarms from objects. All incoming events are automatically recorded and archived, as well as the actions of the operator to handle alarms. It is possible to generate reports on various parameters of the system operation.

5.1.7 The printer works in the mode of continuous printing of messages received by the central station (even when the monitoring program is not running). Each received message is printed with the object identification number and the arrival time. The following is a description of the string printed when a message is received.

5.2 Work on telephone lines.

5.2.1 To work via telephone lines, the facility equipment and the central station are connected to telephone numbers of a city or local exchange.

5.2.2 The object device transmits messages in accordance with its functionality and the program entered into it. The installer determines which instrument status changes will be reported to the central station.

When any of these states changes, a message is sent to the central station.

5.2.3 Before dialing the telephone number of the Central Station, the PPC communicator checks for the presence of a tone signal in the telephone line. If there is no tone, the PDA communicator will disconnect from the line and then reconnect.

5.2.4 After detecting a tone signal on the telephone line, the PDA communicator starts dialing the programmed first central station number. The dialing method - pulse or tone, is determined using software settings in the PPC itself.

If the control panel is connected to the number of the local exchange, it is possible to enter additional digits to access the city exchange.

5.2.5 After dialing the number, the control panel waits for a permission signal from the central station to send a message. Having received the permission signal, the PPK communicator transmits a digital coded message. Reception of the message is confirmed by a signal from the central station. After that, the message is considered transmitted.

5.2.6 PPC communicator after dialing a telephone number has the ability to determine the signal "Busy". In the case when the dialed number of the central station is busy, or if the central station does not answer (the exchange worked incorrectly), the communicator of the control panel dials the next programmed number.

5.2.7 PPK provides for the possibility of connecting a telephone set to it, which can be used as a regular local or city number. In the event of an alarm or other event, the PDA Communicator will disconnect the line even if it is in this moment is busy and will automatically redial the central station.

5.3 Work on the radio channel.

5.3.1 To operate via a radio channel, a transmitter with an antenna is connected to the control panel, and radio units and antenna-feeder devices are connected to the central station.

5.3.2 When operating over a radio channel, only the PAF format is used, in which all control panels of the system can transmit information.

5.3.3 The on-site device transmits messages in accordance with its functionality and software settings. The installer determines the types of messages sent to the CA. The types of messages transmitted to the CA are determined by the installer in agreement with the client

When the state changes, the control panel turns on the transmitter, and the message is transmitted to the central station via the radio channel.

5.3.4 The message transmission algorithm depends on the type of control panel and the software settings entered into it. The PPK transmitter transmits a message a certain number of times with pauses between them.

5.3.5 The central station issues a message to the printer and software only once. Repeated messages are ignored.

5.4 Use in the system of on-site devices that are not part of the SPI.

5.4.1 On-site devices with a built-in digital communicator can transmit messages to the central station via a telephone line. In this case, the central station will receive all the information that the service capabilities of each panel allow to transmit.

5.4.2 To operate over a radio channel of this type of control panel, an object unit (transmitter) TR-100 Stand Alone is required. The information output contacts of the PPK relay are connected to the transmitter inputs. The transmitter transmits a message about a change in the state of its inputs indicating their number, i.e. when the relay contacts on the control panel are triggered. Thus, general information from the facility about an alarm or malfunction is transmitted over the radio channel, and the telephone line receives detailed information about the event.

5.4.3 Any fire and security devices with relay output contacts can be interfaced with the central station using TR-100 Stand Alone (transmission of information only by radio) or on-site device BO-5RT (DLR-100) (messages can be transmitted via radio channel and telephone line).

6 Arrangement and operation of the components of the SPI

6.1 The design and operation of the SPI components are presented in the technical documentation supplied with the incoming and purchased products (See clauses 1.2, 1.3).

7 Diagnostic and control system

7.1 SPI "Andromeda" has a comprehensive system of diagnostics and testing.

7.2 The central station monitors the state of its telephone lines.

7.3 Sets the time during which the "Event Manager" module of the software must receive at least one message from the central station processor. If there is no message, the software will display the message " Anxiety. Event timeout exceeded»

7.4 The software controls the receipt of signals from objects. Control time is set individually for each object in the "Object Manager" module. If there is no message, the software will display the message " Anxiety. Control event not received».

7.5 On-site devices can perform testing functions both in manual mode and automatically according to the installed program.

Availability of main power supply 220 V;

Backup battery voltage;

Status of zone loops;

The state of anti-sabotage loops;

Communication with the keyboard;

Telephone line status (presence of a tone signal);

Control of a loop of an electronic key of arming/removal;

Voltage control of additional power outputs 12V;

Control of information reception by the central station via telephone line;

Program settings of the device;

Control of the parameters of the microprocessor.

7.6 Object devices NORD-8/16, NORD-8K, NORD-8/16N, NORD-8/96 with a connected two-channel transmitter TR-100, as well as an object unit (autonomous transmitter) TR-100 SA can work with the central station in dual channel mode. For this, a variant of the CS base unit with a CMS-420 processor with two radio inputs is used, i.e. two radio units operating at different frequencies must be installed at the central station.

When these devices operate in this mode, messages about arming and (or) disarming and a test message about the normal functioning of the facility equipment are transmitted at one frequency. In the event of an alarm at the site or a malfunction, the transmitter automatically switches to another frequency to transmit a message. Thus, alarm messages are transmitted via a dedicated communication channel, which significantly increases the stability of the system. The recommended frequency spacing in this case is 500 kHz - 2 MHz.

The time interval through which test messages are transmitted is programmed directly by the user of the system. The sending time between two test messages is set in minutes. The program monitors the frequency of receipt of test signals from the object and, in case of failure to receive a message from the object in time, issues an alarm signal to the operator on the computer. This allows you to constantly monitor the state of the object (the integrity of the antenna, cable, control panel).

In the TR-100 SA transmitter, for each type of event, the frequency at which the message will be transmitted can be set. The time interval for the test message can also be set in minutes.

Thus, we get the so-called “line control”, and at the same time we do not lose the radio channel's ability to receive alarm information, since it is free from background test signals. The software displays on the computer screen only a violation in the schedule for receiving a test signal from an object.

7.7 The functions described in clause 7.6 allow monitoring the communication channel simultaneously with the transmission of alarm/service information.

8 Software

8.1 Software (software) "Andromeda" runs under the operating systems Microsoft Windows 95/98/NT. Andromeda software is designed to serve a large number objects (>1000) with the mandatory separation of operator functions, however, it is quite possible to use it when servicing a smaller number of objects. In this regard, the following features of the system should be noted:

8.2 The software is divided into independent functional parts (modules), each of which is designed to solve specific task. This, on the one hand, allows you to protect each module as much as possible from the possible failure of another, and on the other hand, allows you to install each module on a separate network computer.

8.3 The software is designed to work in a network that supports IPX/SPX compatible protocol. Thus, changes made in the SPI on any computer on the network are immediately applied to all software modules running on the network.

8.4 The rights of the system operator are determined in relation to a specific action in a specific system module. Thus, operator access levels are implemented both to the program as a whole and to its individual components, for example, it is possible to restrict operator access both to the entire “Object Manager” module, and only to the function of editing the object security schedule.

8.5 The CA allows receiving and processing events from control panels with built-in communicators (digital message transmission units - specialized modems). Depending on the type of control panel, its functional and service capabilities, it is possible to receive certain information about the state of the object from the control panel. Most PDAs can transmit a wide range of information. For example, a specific user who has armed or disarmed an object; place (zone number) of alarm or malfunction (break, short circuit); partial arming of the object with indication of unguarded zones and much more. Thanks to this, the operator on duty has the most complete information both about the state of the object (armed, disarmed, alarm, etc.) and the technical condition of the equipment (battery is discharged, there is no 220V, the telephone line is faulty, etc.) .).

To create a comprehensive protection of the building, it is not enough to have only equipment for video monitoring: there must also be software that manages all elements of surveillance. Among the Russian control complexes, the security system with a wide range of action Andromeda stands out, which has various functionalities in its set. Main distinctive characteristics Andromeda is the ability to operate on equipment from different manufacturers, as well as the ability not only to manage all the mechanisms of video monitoring and protection, but also to perform alerts and monitor the situation at the facility.

Characteristics of the security complex and features of the functions performed

Andromeda is practically a whole software package that includes a different list of functions and additional features. The main distinguishing characteristics of the system are:

Security system performs all the functions inherent in ACS, as well as video monitoring programs and warning systems. To the main functional features systems include:

Reception of signals from sensors and annunciators;
signal processing;
Fire extinguishing management;
Notification with the help of light and sound sirens and annunciators;
Monitoring of several objects at the same time;
Monitoring and sending reports to the security console.

The security system is designed taking into account the expansion of the number of connected devices. This avoids the need to replace the software with a newer one, and also, thanks to the functioning through the network, it becomes possible to update automatically, without the intervention of specialists. Thanks to a simple Russian-language interface, managing the program is easy.
