RISCO Group’s Integrated Security Solutions Secure Italy Games Room Chain
August 2011 by Marc Jacob
An Italian company operates seven game rooms across Italy that contain high-end arcade games and slot machines in which large amounts of cash are stored. They also own two warehouses that store spare parts for the machines, as well as machines awaiting repair. The game rooms had been targeted on multiple occasions by thieves who stole the cash from inside the machines, and in doing so, caused severe damage to the machines themselves. The gaming company wanted to protect their game rooms and warehouses from future robberies, and required a solution that would enable them to remotely control and monitor all of the sites from a single control room.
RISCO Group’s SynopSYS™ PSIM Platform with ProSYS™ Integrated Security System was chosen to secure the sites. ProSYS was installed in all sites, with RISCO’s complete range of professional motion detectors installed on the ProSYS Bus. RISCO Group’s Industrial LuNAR™ Ceiling Mount Detector was selected to secure the warehouses due to its mounting height of up to 8.6m. Industrial LuNAR utilizes Anti-Cloak™ Technology to detect intruder camouflage, and performs at high warehouse temperatures. The detector is difficult to mask or block unintentionally when shelves are rearranged or boxes are stacked up.
SynopSYS™ PSIM gives the gaming company the real-time status of all game rooms and warehouses from one user interface. All security equipment in the nine sites communicates with the SynopSYS server, located in a remote control room.
The gaming company is pleased with RISCO’s total solution, and values the ability to control their sites across Italy from a single easy-to-use platform. They commented, ’SynopSYS notifies us as soon as there is an alarm, enabling us to take immediate action." The integrator values the convenient remote control enabled by RISCO Bus, through which he controls every aspect of the system from his office, minimizing on site travel.
