A method and apparatus including the steps of a building information model (BIM) of a security system providing a three-dimensional view of a secured area of the security system including the physical location of any sensors of the security system, an input device of the security system receiving from a user a starting time and ending time of a time interval of interest and a processor of the security system displaying the three-dimensional view of the secured area including a time scale showing the starting time on one end of the time scale and the ending time at an opposing end of the time scale and a respective popup of details for each corresponding sensor of at least some sensors of the security system activated during the time interval of interest, each respective popup graphically connected to the physical location of the corresponding sensor within the three dimensional view.

System and method for visualization of history of events using BIM model

Systems and methods for operating a security system are provided that can include a user interface device displaying a three-dimensional model of a secured area based on a BIM, the user interface device displaying a representation of each of a plurality of security devices in the secured area on the model based on respective coordinates of each of the plurality of security devices in the BIM, the user interface device receiving first user input dividing the model into a plurality of subareas, the user input device receiving second user input identifying a change in at least one operating parameter for at least one of the plurality of subareas, and applying the change in the at least one operating parameter to security devices that are represented on the three-dimensional model of the secured area within the at least one of the plurality of subareas.

System and method for virtual region based access control operations using BIM

A security system that creates a display using a set of steps including a user input of a security system having a secured area receiving a respective name from the user for each of a plurality of security sensors, a processor matching each of the respective names to one of a plurality of respective names of sensor locations within a Building Information Model (BIM) of the secured area, the user input receiving from the user a specific designation of a corresponding location of each of the plurality of security sensors within a geographic coordinate system of the BIM, a processor of the security system correlating each of the respective names with the corresponding location of the security sensor within the BIM and a processor of the security system mapping each of the plurality of security sensors to a location within the BIM model based upon the name of the device.

System and method for auto-configuration of devices in building information model

Systems and methods for visualizing the history of events are provided. Some methods can include displaying, on a user interface device, a BIM of a secured area, displaying, on the BIM on the user interface device, a respective representation of each of a plurality of sensors within the secured area, the respective representation being displayed on the BIM at a respective location corresponding to respective geographic coordinates of a respective one of the plurality of sensors in the secured area, receiving first user input indicative of a specified time, and displaying, on the BIM on the user interface device, a respective geographic indicator of at least one of the plurality of sensors that was active at the specified time, the respective geographic indicator being displayed at or connected to the respective location on the BIM of the respective representation of the at least one of the plurality of sensors.

A method and apparatus are provided, wherein the method includes the steps of a building information model (BIM) of a security system providing a three-dimensional view of a secured area of the security system, including the physical location of any sensors of the security system, an input device of the security system receiving from a user a starting time and ending time of a time interval of interest, and a processor of the security system displaying the three-dimensional view of the secured area, including a time scale showing the starting time on one end of the time scale and the ending time at an opposing end of the time scale and a respective popup of details for each corresponding sensor of at least some sensors of the security system activated during the time interval of interest, each respective popup graphically connected to the physical location of the corresponding sensor within the three dimensional view.

A system operates using the steps of a building information model (BIM) of a security system defining a three-dimensional floor plan of a secured area, the BIM receiving a graphical input from a user defining at least one subarea of the secured area, a user input of the security system receiving a selection of the at least one subarea of the secured area, the user input of the security system receiving a change in a parameter from the user of the security system, the parameter is used by a plurality of security devices within the at least one subarea and changing a corresponding parameter within each of the plurality of security devices to match the changed parameter.

A method and apparatus is provided for configuring a security system. The method includes the steps of providing a plurality of configuration files on a computer readable medium where each configuration file defines an access control system or integrated security system and each configuration file is different than any other configuration file of the plurality of configuration files, presenting the plurality of configuration files to a person on a display, a configuration processor receiving a selection of a configuration file of the plurality of configuration files from the person and the processor automatically configuring an access control system or integrated security system in accordance with the selected configuration file.

Method and apparatus for configuring an access control system

A method and system for dynamic association of security levels and enforcement of security procedures. A secure object can be tracked across a building or complex, and security levels may be dynamically updated to reflect the new security requirement. In response to the security level adjustment, security measures and protocols may be implemented dynamically. The system comprises a sensitivity index assigned to each of a plurality of secure objects, a scanner for detecting the sensitivity index, and a logic unit in communication with the scanner for determining a security level for the secure area based on the sensitivity indices of the plurality of secure objects within the secure area. The method comprises detecting a plurality of secure objects within a secure area, each secure object having a sensitivity index, and determining a security level for the secure area based on the sensitivity indices of the plurality of secure objects within the secure area.
