New from Digital Alert Systems is software Version 5.3 for all 64-bit-compatible DASDEC and One-Net systems. It will be available April 2.
This is on top of the recent release of V5.2, which incorporated the latest FCC requirements. V5.3 makes further improvements to platform’s security posture, offering increased security settings to match users’ network restrictions and IT requirements.
The company will exhibit at the NAB Show.
“These new options make it possible to tailor the device to work in the smallest to the most extensive corporate network environments,” the company states. Several older protocols also were removed to tighten security.
Version 5.3 includes other enhancements. For DASDEC-III units with HDMI outputs, the company added new safe-title display boundaries and increased the font size to maximize the high-definition alert message textual display output.
A new alert duration feature allows users to set any of the GPOs (up to 32 possible) to remain closed for the duration of an alert. Thus a user can set a GPO to remain closed during the entire alert, not just while the video or audio is playing. Customers can use it to trigger other devices or alarms while an event remains technically active.
Several additions correspond with updates to the company’s Halo Enterprise Level EAS Device Monitoring program. Because Version 5.3 is coupled with the Halo program, DASDEC and One-Net users can now select EAS logging views by device or in sync with their browsers.
This software update is free to customers who are enrolled in the company’s Software Assurance Plan, have purchased a new DASDEC unit or have taken advantage of the company’s Up-Trade program since April 2022.
