What is a Remote Monitoring System?
A remote monitoring system is a technology that enables the monitoring of equipment, assets, or processes from a distance. It typically consists of sensors, strobe lights, sirens and an integrated security system that is designed to monitor our subscribers’ premises remotely from SECOM Control Centre 365 days a year.
How Does a Remote Monitoring System Work?
In the event of an alarm being activated, a distress signal will be sent to SECOM Control Centre where our highly-trained operator will execute promptly to verify the signal and determine the factor that caused the alarm event. Upon detection of unauthorized or force entry, fire, gas
leak, or any other emergency cases, our operator will immediately alert the nearby depot to dispatch SECOM’s Emergency Response Officer in the shortest possible time to the site. On top
of that, appropriate authorities such as authorized personnel of the Subscriber or Proper Emergency Departments such as police, or other related authorities will be alerted and notified if necessary.
In other words, remote monitoring systems work by using sensors to collect data from the monitored equipment or process. This data is then transmitted to a central server or cloud-based platform using wireless or wired communication technologies. The data is analyzed in real-time, and alerts are generated based on predefined thresholds or conditions.
