DDS integration with Honeywell’s Galaxy

Honeywell’s Galaxy 3© series have been integrated within Amadeus 5 and Amadeus 8. This results in a fully integrated intruder and access control security solutions for mid to large Grade 3 security systems.

The Galaxy alarm panel is defined as a new controller within Amadeus 5 or Amadeus 8. The integration is built to handle a large number of alarm panels to work in parallel.

The alarm zones are managed like DDS controllers inputs. Icons can be allocated to inputs, which can be positioned on a map. They can be linked to global reflexes. Inputs can be activated or deactivated (un-omit or omit in Galaxy terminology). Alarm events from those inputs will be displayed on the log.

Up to 520 inputs can be configured on one Galaxy device, which is connected to Amadeus 5, or Amadeus 8, via TCP connection. This works in event mode to give a fast response time. Galaxy Groups can also be managed.
