A guard tour is an electronic system composed of hardware and software which aims to control human activities, in this case specifically the tours of patrol officers or security guards. The hardware must be rugged and reliable for such control and the software must generate a variety of reports and be easy to use.

Besides tracking the steps of the patrol officers or even the supervisors, our patrol system prevents the mistakes that usually occur, since the wand interacts with the user, informing the time to start each tour and if it is being done correctly. It is a proactive way to avoid tours being missed and to increase the overall security. Consequently, the end user feels safer, the service provider improves its service and the site becomes more secure.


The reports generated by our PROGuard software are comprehensive tools to manage and evaluate the security guards and it helps the service provider to improve the business relationship with his customer. There are several reports to choose from and all can be configured to display the information needed for each case.

The PROGuard software, used to configure the Guardus and generate reports, is extremely easy to operate, even for those who are not familiar with computers. It does not matter whether your computer has serial or USD ports, Contronics offers communication interfaces for both. The PROGuard allows the most diverse round programs to be carried out: if you want a different round schedule for each day of the week, taht's fine. If you want the guard to obey a sequence of places to be covered, no problem. The PROGuard has no limits.

Remote-i enables remote downloads of data collected by a Guardus. This downloading may be carried out via a phone line, Internet Server or local network. It is available in four different versions: SERIAL, MODEM, NET or ISP. In all its versions the use of Remote-i is fairly easy, leaving no room for doubts or complications when used by the security guard. Due to its variations Remote-i may suit different needs.

Connect-i is part of the electronic round controlled by Guardus with any monitoring center through an alarm panel. Thanks to this accessory it is possible to have real time feedback on the patrol officer's activities. Connect-i is of great importance to electronic round control since the real time feedback makes the supervisor's constant checking visits almost unnecessary.

Master Button will tell the supervisor if each round has been conducted correctly. This information can be read anywhere and at anytime. By touching the master button with a Guardus the supervisor will hear different tones depending on the accuracy of each round that has been carried out.

Numeric Button Keypad, or the event wallet, allows the user to add more information to PROGuard-i�s reports. The keypad contains 12 buttons from 0 to 9, CLEAR and ENTER and is carried by the guard as he conducts his tours. By touching the Guardus on the appropriate buttons he can enter individual events.

All events are represented by a number or combination of numbers which enables the guard to register a series of events such as vehicle control, e.g. number plates, meter readings, weights & volumes. These events will then appear in the PROGuard-i reports.
