Integrating Paxton Access system to Alarm


Recommended Posts

I have a customer who has Paxton Access System and a separate Videofied alarm with Camera Sensor on Front Door.

The videofied sensor was added because people are bumping the mag locks and sleeping in the communal hallway after a night in pub.

It is a care home so residents quite distressed to find drunk

Guy in hallway.

Problem is they need access for carers etc in night which is creating false alarms on videofied system.

Anyone know how to link videofied system to Paxton so it could be disarmed?

Also can it be swarmed on door close?

cheers

why not just use door forced?

Paxton system is controlled remotely across multiple sites. Provider not really interested in solving local.problem. similarly CCTV system controlled by another national provider. Neither want to work with each other.

Local site need manned response rather than audible alarm hence videofied system.

Fit an external prox reader on the videofied and ur fobs to set and unset that 

 

Or fit a proper CCTV system and use forced door from Paxton or line detection etc onto the NVR Alarm input to generate the alarms 

Thought about Prox reader and issuing to residents etc but other parties such as Police and Emergency services may need access aswell. Milkman is currently setting it off.

Main problem would be people needing to carry two to be, one for Paxton and one for videofied. Also they wouldn't be able to rearm if they didn't leave but went to their flat.

Thanks so far

Thanks guys. Going to try using the forced door as alarm event. 

Residents are elderly. They do not use the door at night. Only emergency services and suppliers such as milkman.

It is a housing association building with central.purchasing for Paxton and CCTV which is why the supplier couldn't care less a about local.problem as it does not affect their contract.

Been called in to rectify by scheme manager locally. Already suggested next stage is to take control of these services locally. Hopefully they will. Already got another site as a result so live in hope.

Thanks again

Can you not just use the output of the Paxton to switch a timer relay to the output of the videofied detector?

you may be able to use the spare Paxton contact if the door uses Pte buttons.

or do you not have access to the videofied wiring?
