APP specially developed by DEA Security to operate with the DG-DEA-WF2 dongle connected to the SPC PRO SERIES detectors with DSF (DEA Sensor Fusion) technology. Through this App you can: -Configure and calibrate the SPC PRO SERIES detectors via protected Wi-Fi connection; -Load presets in accordance with EN50131-2-8 (Window, Wood, Concrete) -Load preset Vaults and safes (CEI 79-2) in accordance with CEI 79-2 for SN-SPCP-FWL1 sensor -Activate / Deactivate the desired protections (Low Attacks, Gross Attacks, Continuous Impacts and Heavy Attacks); -Set the number of events necessary to trigger the alarm; -Set the memory time for the event count; -Set the detection sensitivity; -View in real time the differentiated alarm states for pre-alarm, tampering, opening, weak shocks, continuous vibrations, strong shocks and breakthroughs; -View the intensity of the signals perceived by the sensors in real time; -Opening Contact Calibration; -Preset saving of Atypical structures; -Perform Autotest. SPC PRO is a range of stand-alone indoor intrusion detectors. Use exclusivity DEA SENSOR FUSION (DSF) detection and analysis technology to protect windows and walls from break-in attempts. Depending on the model, the SPC PRO detectors are applied to doors, windows, skylights and various types of walls, including masonry and reinforced concrete. The SPC PRO detectors perceive the shocks and vibrations generated by attempts to break in, break through or perforate the protected structure. They employ two different sensing elements: a proven PIEZOELECTRIC transducer and a MEMS accelerometer. The signals collected by both sources are integrated and analyzed using adaptive intelligence algorithms: these algorithms enhance the strengths of both technologies to achieve reliability unmatched.
