Maxxess Systems, a globally renowned company in event response management and collaboration systems, is pleased to announce their partnership with SmartPTT by Elcomplus, an advanced communications radio technology company, to deliver a powerful integration with Motorola Digital Radios that will improve response times to critical events. SmartPTT integration with InSite This new SmartPTT integration with Maxxess InSite allows InSite to automatically communicate over Motorola Digital Radios in the event of an emergency, speeding information dissemination and saving critical time for first responders and security personnel. “Maxxess is dedicated to improving the response to any emergency,” said Nancy Islas, President of Maxxess Systems, adding “This new integration expands our current capabilities, and will save the First Responders precious time.” SmartPTT dispatch solution The SmartPTT integration adds new capabilities to the InSite Ultimate Lockdown software “The SmartPTT dispatch solution by Elcomplus has been developed and constantly enhanced for more than 10 years,” said Evgeny Teplyakov, Chief Executive Officer of SmartPTT by Elcomplus, adding, “This new integration will enhance our dispatch technology to benefit users and emergency responders during any emergency.” The SmartPTT integration adds new capabilities to the InSite Ultimate Lockdown software. InSite currently offers extensions to a wide range of related systems, including radios, door locks, PA systems, alert strobes, and signage, all of which are used to ensure appropriate response actions, including information dissemination and automated triggers for door locks. Elcomplus – Maxxess Systems software integration With the SmartPTT integration, when someone triggers a mobile panic alert from the InSite mobile app, the SmartPTT software triggers the Motorola Digital Radios to annunciate that a panic alert has been triggered, including the location and identity of the person who triggered it. The InSite rules engine and automation is helping organizations take early action to address critical events before they spread or grow to become unmanageable and costly. This fast, coordinated response saves critical time, improves the safety and security of anyone located in the affected areas, and ensures that accurate and essential information is disseminated to first responders and security personnel.
Maxxess Systems, a global renowned provider of event response management and collaboration systems, is pleased to announce their partnership with Seek Thermal, an advanced imaging technology company, to deliver a complete temperature screening solution to help manage health risks. Temperature screening solution Unlike stand-alone systems for temperature screening, this new complete solution helps organizations not only detect health risks in real time, but also to trigger immediate automated security system protocols and then follow through by taking appropriate actions in accord with their policies and tracking results to completion. “The Covid-19 pandemic demonstrated to all companies the importance and value of detecting potential health threats and initiating a response as quickly as possible,” said Nancy Islas, President at Maxxess Systems. Integration with automated response system New complete solution integrates the latest temperature screening technology with our automated response system" Nancy adds, “This new complete solution integrates the latest temperature screening technology with our automated response system that can initiate immediate action and then guide managers as they deliver trusted information to authorized personnel and follow through to ensure the safety and security of their staff and visitors.” “As the Covid-19 isolation lock downs are eased, Health screening will be an essential part of re-opening and will probably continue to be an ongoing part of our healthy future,” said Mike Muench, CEO of Seek Thermal. Mike adds, “By combining our reliable temperature screening system with the Maxxess response coordination system, we will give organizations the tools to detect potential health risks and take the next appropriate steps.” Non-contact thermal imaging technology This unique new technology brings together two key elements to help create the complete temperature screening solution. The first element is the simple, accurate automated temperature screening system from Seek Scan that is specifically designed and calibrated for skin temperature measurements. This non-contact thermal imaging technology is perfect for lobbies, hallways, and other key access points. InSite Health Risk Management application When a person with an elevated temperature is detected, an alert is set to the second key element of the system, InSite’s Health Risk Management application from Maxxess. The InSite system is integrated with access control, communication, and other systems and can take immediate action programmed to be in alignment with company policies. For example, the system can deny entry to the individual and instruct them to wait for an HR representative. Efficient health screening and status update It is clear that the need for health status screening will continue into the future If a contagious disease is confirmed, the system can assist management in timely, accurate follow up, surveys to confirm the status of coworkers and recent contacts, and deliver clear, trusted information to all relevant staff. It is clear that the need for health status screening will continue into the future, even after the current Covid-19 lockdowns are eased. This complete solution offers many advantages over stand-alone temperature screening systems, including: The ability to send both the temperature alert and the image of the person to the desktop and/or the mobile app of the InSite system, making it accessible to anyone with authorized access instantly. Because the InSite system provides for remote access, the authorized viewers can be located anywhere inside or outside the facility. InSite integration with access control systems allows for automating the entrances to lock or unlock depending on the temperature screening result. Health Risk alerts can be routed to the responsible departments or people automatically and without delay. There is no need to staff the temperature screening camera, because the appropriate staff can be summoned in the case of an alert. And, the InSite solution logs all actions for audit, review, or similar purposes.
