| GalleryMonitor™ is designed for smaller museums and
stately homes where it is impractical to have a security control room
but object protection is needed for to protect exhibits on public
display. It utilises a variety of sensor technologies (range upto 50m and upto 60
wire free sensors & 7 hard wired). The radio range can be extended by another
50m or so
using a Repeater unit.
Sensors should be chosen to utilise the technology appropriate for protecting
that item e.g. paining, vase, sculpture, display case or fabric. The GalleryMonitor™
Control Box can be pre-set to give each sensor a name and group them into
7 or 8
zones. Output relays correspond to each zone which can link to
sounders, pagers or CCTV cameras. In addition wire free
communication is available using the GSM modem or the serial interface. If a
sensor alarms because someone has touched the painting say, the system can
page a particular person, phone a particular number or send an SMS message. GalleryMonitor™ once set up works as programmed without the need for any computer. This programme can be changed from time to time either by using the basic input keys and short code, or docking a PC upto its serial port and using the simple software or it can be re-programmed remotely (from distance) if it has been equiped with a GSM modem and SIM card. NEW: GalleryMonitor now has a display
screen to enable viewing of alarm and supervision status, logs and basic
program changes. |
GalleryMonitor™ detector/sensorsThe most popular (and least expensive) detector is triggered either by vibration or magnet. It measures just 35mm x 54mm x 15mm. It is battery driven (lifetime upto five years). It is easy to install. It can be placed behind the frame of a painting, in or under a vase, in a display case or somewhere it would be hidden from sight. If the exhibit is touched or moved, the detector will send a wireless signal to the GalleryMonitor control unit (sensitivity adjustable).
The system is extremely flexible. Once the Control Box is installed, the sensors can be moved around as one wishes. Sensor variety - GalleryMonitor™; protection offers many possibilities. It can handle numerous types of detectors: - Seismic/Magnetic detectors (movement/contact) - Non-contact detectors (short range i.r.) - Ultrasound detectors (for display cases) - Proximity detectors e.g. AntiTouch Systems - Panic/Attack alarms - Flood Early warning - InfraRed Beam (Internal or External)

2. System description, GalleryMonitor™On alarm from a sensor, GalleryMonitor™ can activate numerous outputs: - Sounder and screen - SMS messages and GSM calls to mobile phones, PCs or a remote monitoring centre - Output to sounder or video camera or alarm input - Output to pager or handset systems The system is self contained and once set up from an ordinary PC (either using the serial port or remotely using SMS messages through a mobile phone or GSM calls with DTMF tones) plus control of the 8 output relays runs continuously.
A simple software interface on a PC offers the possibility for initial setting up of the entire system, including each sensor/detector. Then the PC can be moved away and the system runs on its own. The control box contains its own aerial to receive signals from the detectors. As an option it can also contain a GSM modem and aerial.

Control Box: Connect the control box to a 12v power source. Mount the control box by screwing it to the wall. It should be mounted vertically, with a height of minimum 2 m. The higher it’s placed, the longer range to the detectors/sensors. Make sure that the unit is not hidden behind metal or re-enforced concrete, as this reduces dramatically the distance. The control box should be placed equal distance between the furthest sensors. If the receiving conditions are not good enough, then it could be necessary to place a second receiving box in the room.
Programming: Either Euronova, or if the software is purchased - the user, can programme the sensors by connecting the system to a PC or remotely via the GSM Modem
Pager link: If specified on ordering a pager system can be supplied to ensure alarm information is rapidly communicated to invigilation staff.
SMS module (extension possibilities): The GalleryMonitor system is often supplemented with a GSM modem. When an alarm is received, the alarm can be send via an SMS message (or call and pre-recorded message), for example, to a mobile phone. The GSM unit is installed in the factory if ordered. To insert a SIM card into the modem, locate the tray under the GSM aerial, the SIM card will slot in contacts face down (Only do this with the power off). Switch the power on and check that the GSM modem has connection to the GSM network via the SmartPatrol PC program.
UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply): GalleryMonitor can be connected to an UPS power controller. With an UPS power controller the system will function a number of minutes after a power failure.
Back Up battery: A rechargeable back up battery comes as standard. On power loss the battery enables the system to send an SMS or pager message to alert that power is down.
