Galaxy 3© series have been integrated within Amadeus 5.
Honeywell’s Galaxy alarm panels are fully integrated intruder and access control security solutions. They bring a new level of ease and flexibility to mid to large sized, Grade 3 security systems.
The Galaxy alarm panel is defined as a new controller within Amadeus 5. The integration is built to handle a large number of alarm panels to work in parallel.
Since each communication server works as a separate process, many Galaxy devices can work in parallel without affecting the Amadeus 5 performance.
Each Galaxy alarm panel can manage up to 520 alarm inputs.
The required I/O points are defined automatically at installation together with the time programs associated.
The I/O points are processed by Amadeus 5 and shown in the software active alarm screen.
The alarm events are sent to the Amadeus 5 in event mode, which gives a faster response time, compared to polling mode. Alarm events from the inputs are displayed on the log screen.
The I/O points can be grouped as well as armed and disarmed in a single command, according to the authorisations granted.
The communication to each panel is managed by a new component, the “Galaxy service”, designed as an autonomous Windows service, which works independently from Amadeus 5.
Amadeus 5 is connected to the Galaxy panel via TCP/IP protocol.
