Vanderbilt has released SPC Connect Pro, the new programming tool for SPC intruder detection systems. It is a desktop application that allows security installers to programme SPC systems.
John O’Donnell, Product Manager at Vanderbilt says: “Pro is designed to use the same interface as the SPC web page so, however you decide to programme your SPC, the interface and programming options use the same intuitive interface.”
The tool now maintains a backup of configurations files, allowing access to old files via a PC if an installer should make changes. Installers also can define their configurations, which can then be reused at other installs.
O’Donnell says: “With SPC Connect Pro, the evolution of SPC continues and we at Vanderbilt aim to provide, not only great products, but also support our customers as best we can. To that end, within the tool we have built in a new support system that will provide users with the latest support information from Vanderbilt and access to manuals and other support material.”
With extra support in the required SPC 3.8.5 firmware, SPC panels will now be discoverable when the panel is in full engineer mode, thus making connecting to systems faster and easier according to the product company. For security users of SPC Connect cloud services, the tool allows installers access their systems from the tool, as a secure connection to support customers.
O’Donnell adds: “To secure access and to ensure you are always up to date with the latest information from Vanderbilt, an SPC Connect installer account is needed to access the tool. Installers can sign up for an installer account free of charge and can use the tool immediately. If you wish, you can enhance the tool by signing up for SPC Connect cloud services. Information and pricing are available from www.spcconnect.com.”
