S2 Security, a provider of IP-based access control, video management and mobile security management systems, introduced S2 Magic Monitor Version 5. S2 Magic Monitor unifies access control, video surveillance and forensics, digital signage and live Internet sourced real-time data and information feeds in a single user interface.

Enhanced S2 NetBox Access Control

Version 5 introduces Dynamic Cells, which allow users to program any Magic Monitor with interactive content. This version also includes enhanced S2 NetBox access control and event monitoring system integration and additional third-party video management system support.

“Version 5 brings more advances than ever, allowing users to create maps, floor plans and command panels with amazing ease,” said John L. Moss, CEO, S2 Security. “New support for Avigilon and Milestone 2017 video servers makes Magic Monitor a truly universal user interface for video surveillance applications.”

With Dynamic Cells, Magic Monitors can be customized to meet unique operational requirements, enabling staff to work more productively and enhance safety and security. By programming any Magic Monitor with dynamic content, users can create interactive floor plans as well as follow events on screen by navigating through one camera feed to the next. In addition, Dynamic Cells support touch screen-capable, responsive digital signage for general use throughout the enterprise in public areas such as lobbies and cafeterias.

Support For Avigilon And Milestone Systems

Also in Version 5, enhanced S2 NetBox integration allows users to view S2 NetBox systems and portals in S2 Magic Monitor, drag and drop portals into Magic Monitor cells to view access history with photo identification and perform momentary unlock directly from the portal cell. In addition, Version 5 provides users with the ability to view cameras from more video management systems with support of Avigilon Control Center 5 and 6 and Milestone 2017. Milestone 2014 and 2016 as well as exacqVision video management systems are already supported. 

Version 5 is now available for S2 Security Certified Integrators to download on S2 Support Central. For more information on S2 products, visit www.s2sys.com.
