Honeywell recently released several enhancements to its widely used WIN-PAK integrated security platform that gives users greater ability to integrate digital video into their security systems, as well as work with a wider range of access control panels. WIN-PAK now seamlessly supports Honeywell’s NetAXS-123, NetAXS-4 and NS2 access control panels to provide full compatibility for legacy and new systems. In addition to WIN-PAK supporting the Honeywell Fusion, HRDP and Rapid Eye hybrid digital video recorders,  it also offers a new interface that supports the Honeywell MAXPRO NVR XE/SE network video recorders for easy access to stored and live video events and alarms.

More than 100,000 WIN-PAK systems have been installed around the world to protect small to medium commercial installations, medical sites, schools and government facilities. The WIN-PAK 3.0 platform is available in three editions:

  • WIN-PAK® SE 3.0 Single User (Standard Edition) is the baseline software package for access control and standard video integration and is ideal for small-to-medium security applications. An add-on Galaxy® Dimension intrusion module can further enhance the security platform.
  • WIN-PAK® SE 3.0 Five Users (Standard Edition) supports advanced access control including advanced video integration. An add-on Galaxy Dimension intrusion module can also further enhance the security platform.
  • WIN-PAK® PE 3.0 (Professional Edition) combines all the features of SE plus an unrestricted number of client workstations; full support for multiple department/site applications; support for multiple communication servers; Galaxy Dimension intrusion and advanced video integration.

“One of WIN-PAK’s primary advantages over the years has been its ability to grow with businesses as their needs change, and these software enhancements are part of that long-term strategy,” said Product Manager René von Franquemont , Honeywell Security Group. “Organisations shouldn’t have to waste time working between different security systems. They need something that works right out of the box to optimise system performance and offers a single user interface for access control, video and intrusion. The latest version of WIN-PAK addresses both of those needs, which means now Honeywell offers a full range of access control systems for small-to-enterprise installations under one roof.”

WIN-PAK SE 3.0 and WIN-PAK PE 3.0 are commercially available in EMEA with English, French, Italian, Spanish, Dutch, Czech, Russian and Arabic user interfaces.
