TDSi's software solutions gives building and facilities managers flexible hardware control options
Product Profile
TDSi's advanced access management software, EXgarde PRO, provides building and facilities managers with a wide range of hardware control functions, helping to improve the performance, and the environmental and cost efficiency of a building.
Hugely versatile, EXgarde PRO's IO functionality is capable of full integration with most third party applications and delivering tailored solutions for individual building areas, entire buildings or across multiple-sites.
Operating on pre-set inputs, the software can control a wide range of user-defined operations, for example:
- Lighting could be activated when the first person enters, or last person leaves the building, within defined time windows, saving energy and money
- Air conditioning - such that the system becomes operational when a given number of people are in the building, or a particular part of it - again reducing wasted energy
- CCTV - all cameras, or those in specified areas, could be initiated when certain cardholders enter defined areas, or when intruder alarms are activated
- Car park - once a given number of vehicles are in a car park, direction signs may be initiated to divert vehicles to alternative areas
- Fire alarm - all fire doors could be automatically opened in the event of a fire alarm being triggered
Many proprietary building management systems require a high initial cost outlay for a complete systems package, the majority of which may never be required. However, EXgarde PRO gives complete flexibility, allowing IO functionality to be added only as and when needed.
