Symmetry™ Guard Patrol Manager
Provides Cost-Effective and Flexible Patrol Management

The Symmetry™ Guard Patrol Manager is an optional module for configuring, recording and reviewing guard patrols.

The module includes a complete set of tools for setting up and managing patrols entirely from the Security Management System (SMS) software. It benefits from the ability to use access control readers as tour checkpoints, resulting in the need for no specialist hardware or data-collection devices, and making the introduction of patrol management both cost-effective and easy to implement.

The progress of a patrol can be monitored, and previous patrols reviewed in reports. Of particular benefit in high security applications is the ability for the system to notify SMS operators immediately of any rule infringements, such as missed checkpoints or late arrival.
