The Promax+ is more than just a display, it's a versatile programmer designed to cater to specialised installations. With the ability to modify inputs on the PCB, this innovative system allows users to tailor configurations for various requirements. Unlocking a realm of possibilities, users can establish a priority traffic light system, set a half-open limit position and monitor open/close status through a volt-free output, applicable for door status positions or interlocking. These features are merely a glimpse into the extensive array of parameters that can be customised to meet specific needs. Personalisation also extends to the display itself, as users can modify the text to prominently showcase their company name and contact information. The Promax+ goes beyond aesthetics, offering a service counter, cycle counter, and the last 10 faults diagnostics for comprehensive operational insights. Gone are the days of navigating through complex fault codes; the Promax+ simplifies fault finding with clear indications on the display. Whether it's a safety edge activation, photocell trigger, or stop command, the system promptly alerts users to potential issues. In the event of a fault, the Promax+ ensures a quick response. By pressing and holding the close pushbutton for 5 seconds, the system activates the Deadman operation, allowing users to securely close the shutter and address any security concern. To further enhance its functionality, the Promax Plus offers optional plug-in cards, including a radio receiver card with the capacity to store up to 500 codes, a traffic light card, a wireless safety edge card, and a loop detector card. The Promax Plus stands out by combining user-friendly customisation, intuitive fault detection, and advanced features to meet the diverse demands of specialised installations.

Vortex Shutters Protect Vandalised Restaurant Against Attack Located in central London, the Mangio Pasta restaurant is favoured by both tourists and locals alike. However, the large glass windows at the front of the premises were frequently being targeted by vandals. Repairs were expensive for such a large expanse of glass so the owners contacted security consultant Tom Jenkins from ATAJ Secure to assess what could be done. “The glass was being continually broken after closing hours, and security shutters were the most obvious solution. However, as the building is located in the shadow of St. Paul’s Cathedral, the City of London Corporation was concerned about the visual impact of shutters” Vortex+ shutters from CGT Security were presented, as the patented lath design reduces the roll size by 50% compared to a standard shutter and has a self-locking capability, as well as LPS 1175 certification from the independent Loss Prevention Certification Board (LPCB). The Council requested detailed drawings to support the planning application, and this was subsequently accepted; the discreet box size was pivotal in the decision plus the shutters were colour-coordinated to the surroundings. For Mangio Pasta this was their optimal solution, giving them the security they needed but still meeting the aesthetic standards required by the local council.
