Each component of a GE Security Pro system plays a special role in the system's operation:
The Panel is at the heart of the system. It stores the intelligence to monitor sensors and touchpads. The panel initiates calls to the central station in an alarm situation.
Touchpads communicate user commands to the panel. Use a touchpad to arm, disarm, and program your system. Telephones may be used to operate the system in most situations.
Sensors
When a sensor is activated, it immediately alerts the panel. The panel activates sirens and lights. The panel calls the central monitoring station. The central monitoring station operator reports the alarm to the police, fire department, or emergency medical personnel.
- Door and window sensors protect the perimeter of your home by alerting the panel when a door or window is opened.
- Motion detectors in hallways or individual rooms detect a person moving across the field of detection. Motion detectors can be programmed to activate lighting and surveillance.
- Smoke and heat detectors remain alert for the presence of fire 24 hours a day.
- Other environmental sensors detect water, freezing temperatures or carbon monoxide.
Surveillance provides CCTV monitoring and digital recording in coordination with intrusion detection, fire control, perimeter security, inventory control, gate access, and operations.
Access Control integrates with badging, CCTV, sensors, gates, turnstiles, and locks to control movement, security, access, and reporting.
