Being IP-based, the door entry system harnesses the benefits of IP technology to enhance the performance of audio and video. The system has no distance limitations and can provide an unlimited number of users with simultaneous video and audio communications. It’s also easy to install and to integrate with other IP devices.
The main entrance is equipped with the award-winning 316 Sense audio/video entrance panel integrated with a third-party access control reader. The entrance panel has a brushed stainless steel touch-sensitive surface with no buttons, integrated colour camera and and LCD screen.
Each apartment is fitted with a sleekly designed, state-of-the-art Icona Manager, a full duplex, hands-free door entry monitor and system manager with a 4.3 inch 16:9 colour touchscreen display. Featuring sensitive touch capacitive technology, LED backlighting and swipe function – and finished with a gloss surface in transparent, scratch-resistant polycarbonate edged with a brushed stainless steel surround – the Icona Manager can be semi flush-mounted, wall-mounted or desk-based.
The 10 penthouses are also equipped with a 1456G interface which connects to a third-party home automation system.
Nick Stevens, Business Development Manager at Comelit, said: “We are delighted to have supplied our door entry panels and monitors to such an exclusive development. In fact, Icona comes from the root ‘iconic’, and this applies in equal measures to the Merano development as it does to our door entry systems.”
