Galaxy® Dimension

Integrated intrusion and access control panel range

The Galaxy® Dimension series of security systems is a fully integrated intrusion and access control security solution for mid to large commercial security installations. It offers your customers a user-friendly system in a cost-effective and fully compliant package. An innovative wireless capability offers high quality, reliable security solutions, with the flexibility to meet the needs of every commercial and industrial application.

A new Dimension in wireless security!

Cabling can be impractical due to building aesthetics, or the cost could simply be prohibitive. By removing cabling, significant savings can be made on the total installation cost. The larger the installation, the greater the cost savings. For users, wireless solutions offer a less invasive installation which minimises disruption to their business. Galaxy® Dimension’s wireless options can be used as an alternative to a wired solution, offering extra business opportunities and significant cost and time
savings.

A secure and reliable solution

Wireless is enabled using patented control panel software and up to eight RF portals in an installation. The powerful combination of our unique bidirectional radio technology, agile routing and Galaxy® reliability ensures that the wireless sensors and the control panel can talk to each other using the strongest available signal path. This, plus the sensors’ 2km radio range in open field, makes our wireless solution a far more reliable and secure system, opening up wireless technology for commercial
environments.

A full range of wireless sensors offering new capabilities

Our comprehensive range of wireless peripherals is compatible with our core Dimension, G2 and Domonial intruder alarm panels. Galaxy® Dimension’s wireless sensors address all of the needs of an intrusion system and more. Key to this offer is our wireless DUAL TEC® sensor, which extends the benefits that dual technology provides in false alarm reduction to cover commercial environments. The wireless range is complemented by a full array of internal, perimeter and environmental protection devices. A two-way wireless key fob allows users to instantly set or unset the system from in or outside the premises and gives system status. This helps reduce user error and related false alarms. For installers, this full portfolio opens up new market opportunities and additional revenues. For users, it means greater reliability and the flexibility to customise the system to meet business needs. For both, it saves the time and cost of installing cables, and minimises false alarms – leading to lower intervention costs

Integrated system (intrusion + access control)

Galaxy® Dimension offers enhanced access control features within a single, integrated system. For the end user, it’s easy to operate. For the installer, it’s easy to programme, commission and maintain. For both, a single system means one point of contact for technical support. Galaxy® Dimension provides a good base for an access control system that can be easily expanded to include an intrusion capability as needs arise.

Smart user interface

Using Galaxy TouchCenter false alarms are reduced as operation and system management are greatly simplified for users. Its large customisable colour touch-screen and intuitive menu gives clear, easy to read operating instructions; its integrated proximity function allows quick and secure setting and unsetting without the need for a PIN; and on screen help files are available at your fingertips. Installation and programming is easy, and installers benefit further from reduced training time and fewer engineer call outs. Enhanced controls allow centralised operation of lights, heating or electronic window blinds – either manually (using the touch screen) or automatically (via timer control).

Audio verification (‘Listen-in’ Facility)

With the new Galaxy® Dimension, the Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) can listen in using independant audio channels to identify the specific location where the alarm has been triggered and verify source and cause. This reduces false alarms and increases system reliability.

Programming software compatibility

The Remote Servicing Suite (RSS) is a maintenance tool enabling complete remote control of the panel, allowing installers to give customers instant support. Installers can complete remote routine inspection reducing the need for time consuming and costly site visits. The RSS software uses a common database to communicate with all Galaxy® panels from one programme. A networked version of the Remote Servicing Suite offers access to up-to-date records for all users. This guarantees the secure management of information in one central location. Both wired and wireless components can take advantage of the easy remote diagnostics and maintenance functionality in this software.

Galaxy® Dimension enables you to offer your customers a user-friendly, integrated security solution that will meet all of their needs. Honeywell provides sales and marketing support and organises frequent training to boost system understanding and to ensure trouble-free installations every time.
