Why NOVA SMART

Installing an electronic security system is the most effective deterrent against burglaries.
However, for it to be truly effective, it must remain activated for most of the day. This requires users to adopt a different way of living, with limitations such as keeping windows or shutters that are secured closed.

To understand the superiority of the NOVA SMART security system compared to a simple alarm system, it is necessary to present and compare the two systems separately.

Perimeter Coverage with a Simple Alarm System.
Perimeter security in a basic system is usually implemented by installing magnetic contacts on the window and door frames of the space. However, to reduce costs, many installers choose to: Install contacts only on the glass pane and not on the shutter. Group two or more openings into a single zone.

This results in:
When a frame presents a problem or is deliberately left open by the user, the entire zone—and thus all the frames it comprises—is deactivated. In the event of a contact failure, identifying the issue becomes difficult, requiring technical intervention (even within masonry) and resulting in increased repair costs.

Improved Technical Approach:
A more technically correct approach is to secure both the glass pane and the shutter in every opening.
However, even in this case, in order to avoid increased costs, the glass panes are grouped into one zone and the shutters into a second one.

Result:
If a glass pane or shutter is open, the security is deactivated for all other openings in the same zone. If there is an issue with a single contact, all openings in the zone are deactivated, causing similar difficulties in detection and repair.

Το ChatGPT είπε: The Optimal Solution – Independent Zones per Frame:
The most effective and reliable method of perimeter protection is: Each glass pane and each shutter should be secured in a separate zone.

Advantages:
The user can choose which openings (glass panes or shutters) will remain open without compromising the security of the others.
Fault detection in a contact is immediate and clear. No disconnection of other contacts or frames occurs in the event of a problem.

Requires:
Study from scratch and proper design. Appropriate wiring, a control panel with multiple zones, and acceptance of the higher initial cost by the owner.

Limitation:
With the system armed, it is not possible to open any secured frame without deactivating the system (e.g. for ventilation or exit).

Poor Practice: Omitting Contacts – Reduced Security:
In some cases, installers completely omit securing the frames with contacts, relying solely on external detectors for reasons of convenience or time.
This drastically reduces perimeter security, leaving the frames unprotected and the space vulnerable.

HE NOVA SMART SYSTEM

The Nova Smart system can be added to any security system to enhance perimeter coverage, allow flexible management of openings, and provide users with unique features, such as:

Practical Benefits for the User with NOVA SMART

Absolute Flexibility in Opening Control – Without Compromising Security

With Nova Smart, users no longer need to close all the windows or all the shutters in the same zone before activating the alarm.

They can freely choose for each opening whether the window will remain open and the shutter closed, the shutter will remain open and the window closed, or both will be closed.

Το ChatGPT είπε: Without additional actions, such as the Bypass function, the system automatically arms and secures only the points selected to be closed.

Thus, the daily use of the system becomes more comfortable, practical, and functional, without any compromise on the security of the premises.

When the alarm is armed, the NOVA SMART system offers premium features such as:

When the shutter is closed, the window can be opened and closed at will without triggering the alarm.
If the shutter is then opened, the alarm will be triggered. 

 For predetermined frames, it allows the window and then the shutter to be opened sequentially without triggering the alarm, enabling residents to freely access the outdoor area for any reason at any time.
 

It goes without saying that in every case, if there is an attempt of intrusion by an external intruder (from outside inward), the system will detect it and immediately trigger the alarm.

The function offered by the Nova Smart system is called: Smart Management – Intelligent Control. 

 Smart Management – Intelligent Control.

It is a Greek innovation that offers smart perimeter security with complete flexibility in the use of openings, without any compromise on safety.
