The integration provides Lenel customers with seamless DirectIP™ integration and rich functionality through its OnGuard integrated platform in order to deliver end-users the full benefits of full-HD and high performance DirectIP™ surveillance. Commenting on the integration, Brian Song, Managing Director of IDIS Europe said, “DirectIP™ combined with Lenel’s OnGuard offers customers a powerful integrated management platform to streamline security operations and provide quick video identification of critical events to enable a faster and more accurate response to threats and incidents. The successful completion of the integration continues our commitment to providing cost effective and flexible security solutions, and extends our capability within the corporate enterprise sectors.” The integration allows comprehensive DirectIP™ functionality including live video, record, play-back, pan-tilt-and-zoom (PTZ) control and allows operators to efficiently manage users from the unified OnGuard platform to deliver powerful event and alarm correlation with full-HD video verification. “IDIS has completed the required factory testing to validate the interface of DirectIP™ with OnGuard.  This integration also allows customers to upgrade to DirectIP™ as well as blending existing and legacy CCTV through the OnGuard platform.” said James Wheeler, UK Director, Lenel. “We look forward to their continued involvement in the Lenel OpenAccess Alliance Program.” Packaged as an end-to-end solution, comprising a range of cameras, monitors, network video recorders (NVR) and comprehensive video management software, DirectIP delivers unrivalled plug-and-play simplicity, combined with highest-quality performance and industry-leading pricing levels.

IDIS releases an extensive range of full-HD motorised focus and zoom dome cameras

IDIS has announced a new range of motorised focus and zoom dome cameras expanding its DirectIP™ camera line up. The new full-HD, two mega-pixel cameras allow auto-focus to build upon DirectIP™ plug-and-play technology and further reduce installation and commissioning time for installers and integrators. The new IDIS DC-D2233 Series dome cameras are available in five variations. With all models offering the latest vari-focal motorised focus and zoom (MFZ) lenses, extensive features also include true day and night capability, built-in heaters, rugged IP66, and IK10 housing, all making the DC-D2233 Series perfect for both indoor and outdoor installations. The new range also makes DirectIP™ true plug-and-play set up even easier. Zoom and focus are controlled directly from DirectIP™ network video recorders (NVR), or even remotely, to make fine tuning issues a thing of the past. The result is less implementation and commissioning time as well as the streamlining of routine maintenance. Martin Cowley, Channel Manager at IDIS Europe, commented, “When we launched DirectIP™ we made a promise to make full-HD and network surveillance easier to implement and more cost effective without ever compromising on quality or performance. We’re continuing to building on that promise by extending our DirectIP™ line up and developing off-the-shelf integrations with leading access control systems and security management platforms to ensure a lower cost of ownership.”
