Access control and security software manufacturer TDSi by Hirsch has unveiled GARDiS Pro v3.2, the latest iteration of its sophisticated access control software.
The new version incorporates a suite of features aimed at enhancing security, boosting wireless locking integration, and simplifying the installation and commissioning process for both partners and end users.
Enhancements and security features
GARDiS Pro v3.2 is a testament to TDSi by Hirsch’s ongoing commitment to a forward-looking access control ecosystem that adapts to evolving technologies and customer needs. This updated platform introduces extensive features that not only strengthen security but also enhance connectivity and system performance.
Seamless wireless locking
A key enhancement in this version is the integration with Uhlmann & Zacher (U&Z) wireless locking solutions
A key enhancement in this version is the integration with Uhlmann & Zacher (U&Z) wireless locking solutions. This advancement facilitates the seamless management of compatible wireless locks directly through the GARDiS interface, offering streamlined configuration, monitoring, and control.
This new capability enhances the wireless locking experience by providing users with increased convenience while ensuring centralised control over the system.
Improved communication and alerts
Further bolstering security, GARDiS Pro now utilises AES encryption for communication between GARDiS Pro and GARDiS controllers, ensuring that data transmitted across the network is secure against unauthorised access or interception. This is particularly important for organisations working within sensitive or regulated industries.
The introduction of Endpoint Alerts in v3.2 provides real-time notifications to designated devices, such as mobile phones, enhancing the responsiveness to critical events. These alerts are configured via the GARDiS App and use Google Firebase for quick and reliable communication, ensuring that key system activities are never overlooked.
On-site awareness and efficiency
To further improve on-site awareness, an audible alarm option is now available in the software, allowing users to trigger a sound alert when necessary. This offers immediate indication of alarm events, facilitating faster incident responses.
Streamlined deployment
These refinements aim to make the deployment process more efficient for installers and administrators
The version also brings improvements in licensing and commissioning, designed to simplify setup, reduce configuration times, and enhance usability. These refinements aim to make the deployment process more efficient for installers and administrators, accelerating project progress.
Tina Pemberton, Director SMB Software, emphasised the significance of the update, stating, “GARDiS Pro v3.2 represents another important step forward in our mission to deliver secure, flexible, and intuitive access control solutions. Our customers want systems that are not only robust and compliant, but also easy to deploy and manage. This update strengthens every part of the platform - from encrypted communications to wireless locking integration - while ensuring installers can work more efficiently and end users benefit from a smoother, more responsive experience.”
GARDiS Pro v3.2 is currently accessible via the TDSi Product Registration portal. Partners and customers are urged to upgrade to utilise the latest features and improvements in system performance.
