The first of these enhancements is the integration of its Elpas Real Time Location Systems technology with the Software House C-Cure access control and security management platform, and the new man-down emergency call transmitter is ideal for wireless monitoring and tracking of lone workers and security personnel.

Through this new integration with C-Cure 9000, security personnel can receive alarms from within the C-Cure 9000 monitoring station if someone attempts to remove tagged equipment, such as a laptop, ultrasound machine or a piece of priceless art, from the facility. The integration solution can also be used to point pan-tilt-zoom cameras to areas of concern when a wireless panic button is pressed. In addition to providing real-time location of tagged assets or individuals, Elpas can instantly inform first responders to the location of an emergency situation as it unfolds, along with the identity of the personnel involved. Through C-Cure 9000, video from related cameras can be associated with the event.

“By layering the real-time location-based security data of Elpas into the C-Cure 9000 access control and event management solution, we can now offer greater protection and visibility for staff members and assets within a host of settings,” said Jeremy Krinitt, Senior Product Manager, Strategic Integrations for Tyco Security Products. “This integration offers new capabilities to our security clients that can make a real difference in emergency situations by helping them pinpoint the location of individuals in need or threatened assets.”

The new man-down emergency Calll transmitter from Elpas is a holster-worn active RFID Tag which delivers wireless monitoring and tracking of lone workers, prison guards and security personnel who may be subject to attack or injury in high-risk workplace environments. The transmitter combines RF/IR/LF indoor RTLS technologies in a cost-effective, field-proven mechanical design to deliver precise real-time location data that identifies the individual in trouble and the location of the evolving security incident.
