If a site experiences network communication problems, distributed intelligence allows for continued operation of access control and alarms management. The relevant fields of the cardholder database, alarm configuration and security parameters are downloaded to the Controllers resulting in instant access and alarm control decisions.
All events and alarms are date and time-stamped before being sent to the Command Centre.
Each Controller 3000 is capable of buffering events should communications fail. These events are then automatically sent to the Command Centre when communications are re-established.
True peer-to-peer communications between Controllers facilitates system flexibility, redundancy and protection against malicious network attacks.

REDUNDANT ALARM DIALLING
The Gallagher Dialler facilitates communications between the Gallagher Command Centre Server and Controllers that, once configured, operates independently of the Command Centre.
The Gallagher system facilitates off-site monitoring by transmitting alarms to a remote monitoring station using industry standard Contact ID data format. A monitoring station is informed immediately if there is a breach of security, enabling the dispatch of security guards to re-secure your business.
The Gallagher Dialler, connecting to the Gallagher Controller 6000 and 3000, is the hardware device that performs the Contact ID data transmission. An on-board connection is provided for the Gallagher Dialler 5000GL.
REDUNDANT ALARM CONTROL
The Gallagher Remote Arming Terminal supports multiple controllers that, once configured, operate independently of the Gallagher Command Centre.
