IP for security...at your fingertips

Chiron has been at the forefront of security

industry communications systems for over

19 years, where we have built a reputation for

solutions that are both technologically

advanced and inherently practical.

Banks, insurance companies and

corporations rely on Chiron for their

protection and security, whilst the security

companies themselves trust our product

to provide the critical communication links that

make their businesses viable.

Chiron has always taken the view that

independent testing by third parties is the only

real guarantee of product performance and

compatibility. For this reason all IRIS products

are independently tested and they have

achieved the coveted VdS approvals which is

the benchmark standard most widely

recognised across Europe. In an area such as

security, where the fall-out from even a minor

failure can be huge, we believe this is the only

responsible route to take.

Our testing andapprovals policy

Who we are

What is IP?

Quite simply IP uses the Internet to carry

security communications instead of the old

switched telephone network. This means that

vastly more information, of vastly different

kinds can be sent without the need for

dedicated lines; information such as voice,

data and high definition CCTV. It also allows

that information to be two-way, so a

monitoring centre can communicate with a

remote site, interrogate its health, control

cameras and even conduct remote

maintenance.

There's also considerable pressure from the

telecommunications companies themselves or

the security industry to switch to IP. Because

IP uses less bandwidth than conventional

methods, it frees up capacity to be used for

other purposes such as on-demand television.

Indeed, much of the European telecom

network is in the processes of planning the

withdrawal of the services that makes non-IP

security communications possible - so soon

IP in security will not be a choice, but a

certainty.

IRIS Touch has rapidly become established as

the answer to IP based security systems.

By providing a simple, reliable and proven way

to convert existing, analogue, security

installations to modern, Internet-based IP

communications, it has become Europe's

most widely used system - trusted by security

installers, monitoring centre operators and

end-users alike.

This widespread adoption is based on

three factors - flexibility, simplicity and

capability.

Flexibility

The IRIS Touch range is able to convert

virtually any existing analogue based

security installation to IP, no matter its age

or manufacturer. Similarly the receiving unit

appears as a standard unit with a serial

interface to the monitoring centre operator.

Simplicity

The IRIS Touch range has been designed

to be simple to install, configure and use. It

requires no deep knowledge of the Internet

and is no more complex to set up than a

home broadband connection. This, in part,

is due to a unique touch screen that guides

users and installers through every step and

makes troubleshooting simple.

Capability

IRIS Touch makes full use of all the

advantages that IP brings to security

communication, from remote troubleshooting

to CCTV control, to communications

resilience. It offers dual path backup by all

standard methods, flexible polling and

simpler upgrade paths. Indeed, it allows

any analogue installation to become part

of the IP revolution.

The benefits of IRIS Touch

The IRIS Touch range has been designed to

be comprehensive, so whatever ever your

security requirements, there's always a model

to meet your needs. From single path fire

panels to dual-path units operating via GSM,

IP, and PSTN*, IRIS Touch can work with

almost all legacy installations, turning them

into fully-featured IP security systems quickly,

easily and reliably.

For instance, our GSM diallers are among the

most sophisticated available, and enable this

highly resilient backup route to be used with

confidence - guiding installers to the GSM

provider with the strongest, most reliable

signal for any given installation no matter its

geographic location.

Whilst the touch screen not only guides

installers, it also allows end-users to easily

check system status and perform simple

trouble-shooting procedures - minimising

downtime and greatly reducing unnecessary

and time-consuming call-outs.

Interactive guide

To help you identify exactly which model in the

IRIS Touch range suits your particular needs,

we've created a simple on-line guide that

shows the wide combination of primary

methods, backup paths, fire approvals and

connectivity that's available with IRIS Touch.

Just visit www.chironsc.com/guide for

full details.

At the heart of the system is IRIS Secure AppsTM,

which controls all communications and is run

and managed by the monitoring centre.

IRIS Secure AppsTM is more than an intelligent

receiver. It is a whole new concept in

information systems for all security users from

system managers, client account managers to

installers and engineers. Each App can be

tailored for each user to be able to undertake

tasks for which they have authorization by the

monitoring centre.

With IRIS Secure AppsTM, installers can see

technical alarms and initiate remote

management and diagnostics. Estate

managers can see the state of all alarms on

their sites, identify problems and look at faults,

manage upload/download and a host of

other activities.

IRIS Secure AppsTM can be many things to

many people. It is the ultimate chameleon.

Each App is unique and Chiron is adding

more all the time.
