It is not mandatory but is highly recommended for following reasons
- CMS proactively monitors system health
- Detects and alerts communication failure. Ex: A telephone line being cut or SIM card is dysfunctional
- A trained personnel to monitor alerts and make sure necessary action has been taken such as alerting police, fire department, hospital, loved ones or neighbors
- Based on some studies, most security systems lose their effectiveness if not managed proactively
Key changes over last decade has been
- With the adoption of IoT, many “lifestyle” components can now be integrated with the home alarm system. Ex: Lighting controls, thermostats for temperature control and ability to lock/unlock doors
- Communication mode has changed cover GSM, GPRS and LAN
- Apps make it easier to receive alerts and remotely control unit or individual sensors
Simply use your alarm code to silence the alarm. NSS Security’s Monitoring Center, will receive Intrusion signal & immediately will receive restore signal by authorized user, which will indicate as a false alarm and minimize the phone call, so there is no panic at client end.
Besides guarding against intruders, home alarm systems protect against mishaps by detecting heat, smoke and moisture based on sensors used
Hardwired and wireless security systems each have advantages and disadvantages. A hardwired system might be the most reliable, but there’s a risk of wires being cut and impact on aesthetics
Wireless systems offer the flexibility to move sensors around as needed. Radio frequency used by wireless security systems are more powerful than those used on cell phones, but electromagnetic interference can impair the capability
NSS alarm panels are built in tamper-proof. In the event that an intruder attempts to disable panel with wrong code – CMS will detect unsuccessful attempts to disarm system, or damage control panel or any of sensors, CMS will detect – exact location of sensors tamper or panel is been tamper. By any chance telephone line is cut pysically or through telephone service provider line not working, the loss of heartbeat will be sent to CMS
Communication lost can happen due two reasons
- Due to phone line cut
- Panel is power off
If phone line is cut, CMS detects loss of heartbeat and if power is OFF CMS detects loss of power, in both the issue owner is informed immediately
Surveillance or security systems have become the need of the hour. Surveillance cameras not only provide a way of identifying the culprit in case of a crime, they also act as a deterrent for any potential incident in offices, educational and health institutions and even residences
Fish eye cameras are most suitable for a wide area surveillance.
Yes. Using infrared technology
A 2TB hard drive should record four cameras (depending on frame rates) for 25 days plus or minus depending on movement
Your Surveillance Recorder will overwrite when the hard drive is full. So if you have capacity to record for 30 days, on day 31, day 1 recordings will be deleted to make room
PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) motorizede camera, provides directional and zoom control manually in live stream
You can find 4 types in a broader sense.
- Analog Cameras: These are the oldest and the simplest of all. They capture and send image over coaxial cable to be stored in DVR (Digital Video Recorder)
- HD Cameras: These are just advanced versions of Analog cameras designed to give better quality images
- IP cameras: These are digital and are network based. These work with NVR (Network Video Recorder) which is a network device to record. Video can be directly streamed. This are technologically advanced and feature rich
- PTZ: These are the wide area surveillance cameras. These are capable of pan, tilt and zoom for better surveillance.
Yes there are certain cameras that do not require DVR box. You just need to connect them to you PC via router.
A Medical Alert system includes a pendant or that provides emergency assistance at the push of a button. Doing so puts you in contact with a trained operator or family member, who sends emergency help to wherever you are.
In addition to the push button, the system detects fall and allows for 2-way communication.
Anyone who requires assistance or medical attention on the push of a button, or elderly and sick who are susceptible to fall
- Fall detection capability
- Mode of communication
- Battery life

It would depend on cell phone coverage in your area
Yes, NSS SmartCare has built in microphone allowing 2 way communcation
Regardless of where they live, they will be home alone at times and may suffer a fall, stroke or other medical emergency. If your older parents live with you, you still need to go grocery shopping, run errands and so on, and you cannot always be there 24/7 365 days a year. A medical alert system provides peace of mind for all of you.
Our smart pendant is the only medical alert system to combine automatic fall detection, GPS tracking, voice monitoring and 2-way cellular voice communication in a small water-resistant pendant. It is combined with 24*7 CMS and unparalleled customer support
Yes. Many seniors are concerned about having a fall when getting up to use the restroom late at night, and we encourage them to wear SmartCare pendent a medical alert system?
Medical alert system is ideal for people of any age who are:
- Living alone, or left alone for long periods and need assistance
- Have a medical condition that could require immediate medical attention (such as epilepsy, seizures, strokes, heart conditions)
- Recovering from a fall, hip replacement or other major surgery
- Want to maintain their independence, be safe, and have peace of mind
Yes. If you want to ensure your safety both at home and on-the-go, our SmartCare device enhanced with GPS capabilities, meaning that our monitoring center can send help no matter where you are. In addition to GPS, the SmartCare is also WiFi-enabled.
As an upgrade to GPS location technologies, a WiFi-enabled device like the SmartCare provides a much more accurate reading of your location by detecting WiFi hotspots around you. Not only is it more accurate than GPS, but it’s also faster, so your exact location is identified within seconds of pressing your emergency button.
A fall detection-enhanced system will automatically call for help should you experience a fall, even if you are unable to push your medical alert button. Our Life Safety Consultants typically recommend fall detection to those with health conditions like epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, diabetes, and MS, or for those who simply want an extra means of protection.
Fall Detection does not detect 100% of falls. If Customer is able, Customer should press the help button in the event of an emergency. Fall Detection must be worn around the neck to allow for adequate detection of falls.
To ensure that there are no issues with your medical alert system, we recommend completing a test at least once a month. When you’re connected to our monitoring center, simply tell them that you are testing your device.
You have a variety of options. Firstly, you have to decide how many doors you want to control initially, and how many you are likely to want to control in the future. You need to decide if you want to link a variety of sites together, so that a person can be given access rights to a variety of doors in a variety of properties – the ‘One Badge’ principle.
There are a whole host of solutions, from a single door keypad, to 1000+ door, IP networked systems.
X990 is best suited where you want to restrict access using the fingerprint, card or password from one side of door and push button or biometric reader on the other side of door. As it comes with a 12 Volt adapter so EM Electromagnetic Lock. Supply can be given through adapter of X990 machine itself.
Yes, you can use remote control to control the Electromagnetic Lock.
Controller, Electromagnetic Lock, Brackets depending upon the type or door and space and power supply of 12 Volts
X990 is best suited where you want to have biometric access control from both sides of the door. On one side X990 machine can be mounted and on the other side F12 reader can be used. Apart from these, X990 can be used to fulfill various other requirements like centralized data access.
An increasing number of organizations of all sizes have been recognizing the benefits of replacing their old key based systems for controlling access to buildings with electronic access control systems. The benefits in lower running costs and ease of administration are well proven.
Access control systems regulate entry into or within premises, through controlling doors, barriers, turnstiles or gates via use of a keypad, biometric finger, face scanning or a swipe-card.
Access control systems can be used anywhere there is a need to regulate access into or around premises. Specific areas of premises can be controlled, limiting who can enter certain parts at given times. Access can be gained with the use of a swipe-card, or a PIN code, meaning that a large number of keys do not have to be carried.
The systems we install and maintain can be linked to a PC using access control management software, or stand-alone systems with a control unit that holds the information. With a stand-alone system, a series of enrolment and shadow cards are used to regulate the distribution of key fobs. PC based systems can control larger numbers of doors, barriers, turnstiles and gates with capacity for up to 10,000 users.
A proximity reader, swipe-card reader or keypad is connected to a door controller which, if a PC based system is in operation, is then connected via data cable to a PC. The door controller retains all the information of users allowed access via that particular entrance. The door controller also controls the operation of the entrance. If connected to a door it will release the trigger of an electric lock or magnetic lock when access is granted. If connected to a gate, barrier or turnstile the controller will give a signal which will open the entrance.
If a proximity card is lost or stolen on a stand-alone system, it can be deleted from the system with the use of the shadow card that is supplied with each fob meaning access can no longer be gained with that token. If a token is lost or stolen on a PC based system, the token can either be deleted on the software or marked as lost. If marked as stolen it will register on the software when somebody attempts to use it
Biometrics refers to a type of personal identification that relies upon physical characteristics that are not shared by any other individual, such as a fingerprint or an iris
Fingerprints are impressions made of the minute ridge formations and patterns found on the fingertips. No two persons have exactly the same arrangement of patterns, and the patterns of any one individual remain unchanged throughout life thus offering a virtually infallible means of personal identification.
