Nortek Security & Control (NSC) announces the ELAN 8.3 software update at ISE 2019, featuring expanded support for the growing line of ELAN surveillance camera and advanced IntelliVision video analytics.
The update employs advanced object detection from NSC subsidiary IntelliVision to minimise false positive alerts. Through 8.3, the Viewer Tab provides the user Surveillance Configuration and REcording options. Users can set a recording schedule and choose between Constant, Motion Only or Custom modes. The Custom mode schedule can be created and quickly applied to all channels, and all users can set, clear and customise motion area and sensitivity with motion-only and weighted recording support. Users can also employ a privacy mask password protection on per-user basis, with up to 4 regions per camera, and add link recording and privacy options to System mode.
Additionally, installers can set static IP addresses for NVR and cameras in the Discover tab with a preview window when adding camera to assist with identification and renaming. The update also offers improved Surveillance footage timeline loading, and progressive loading for more responsive local and remote playback.
Through 8.3 ELAN communicates directly with the 2GIG Vario hybrid wired/wireless security panel. For pool and spa control, Pentair IntelliCenter support has been added. Sonos driver updates enable line-in support for players, as well as static zones for home theatre players and optical-in selection. To help installers, a port scan & tunnel feature allows the Discovery tab to scan a local netowrk for open http port (80) and provide access to device configuration pages. As the name implies, the Device Status feature allows users to check device status in real-time, with colour coding shown in the Configurator tab.
