Frontier Optional Features
 
   
     
Alarm Notification – Frontier users can be notified via email or pager of alarm activity (assuming email and/or pager uses an SMTP interface).  The alarm notification feature may be configured so only certain Frontier users and/or certain alarms require notification.   
     
Backup Options – There are three types of backup server options: cold, warm, and hot.  Cold, warm, or hot backup servers can be used in conjunction with Frontier to assure maximum security in the event of a primary server hardware failure.  
     
CCTV – CCTV optional interface allows for selected cameras and monitors to be associated with selected alarms when an alarm activates so as to provide real-time video of an alarm occurrence.  
     
CTIME – CTIME allows Frontier to collect badge transactions for time reporting purposes.  CTIME supports the basic pairing of “In” and “Out” transactions collected for designated badgeholders at designated readers.   
     
Digital Video Recording – The digital recording feature allows for alarms to be tagged to record video and/or audio.  The recorded video, related to an alarm, can then be played back using Frontier software, which provides video playback prior to an alarm occurrence.  
     
Domains – Frontier supports restricting command privileges for specific objects defined in the Frontier system (e.g., access, alarms, badges, doors).  For example, without the optional feature of domains, if a user is granted permission to unlock doors the user can unlock any door in the system – domains allows specific doors to be restricted from specific users thus restricting control of door(s) that are not included in the user’s domain.   
     
Elevator Control – Controls badgeholder access to elevator floors and allows for Frontier users to control the state of elevator floors  
     
Events Archive – Events Archive provides reporting and storage capabilities for long-term events beyond Frontier’s normal capacity.  
     
Extended Field Edit Logging – Tracks edits made to badge records in Frontier and saves the changed value from a field, grid, or add/remove list.  Operators can run a report to view the changes made to badge records.  
     
Field by Field Permissions – Restricts a user’s ability to view specified fields in Frontier’s Badge Setup window and Pass Setup window.  Administrators can configure view, edit, and/or view caption privileges for operators for certain fields.  
     
Frontier Imageworks – Imageworks is fully integrated in Frontier allowing badge designs to be created, images to be captured, and badges to be printed directly from Frontier.  
     
HR Interface – Brings employee information from an outside interface into Frontier by way of an ASCII comma-delimited file containing employee information.   
     
Key Control – Gives the capability to monitor and control the tracking of mechanical keys at a facility.  
     
Multiple Calendars – Provides a method for adding more than one calendar/holiday schedule into Frontier.  Useful for facilities spread out over large areas.  
     
Prox Encoding – The prox encoding option allows users to encode proximity cards directly from Frontier.  
     
Reader Messaging – An optional feature that displays messages entered in Frontier on the reader’s display when a badgeholder uses his/her badge.  
     
Serial Alarm Interface – The serial alarm interface provides the ability to generate an alarm based on information sent to Frontier from an outside system over a serial interface.  
     
Two Person/Two Badge – Two person gives the ability to ensure a specified area always contains AT LEAST two badgeholders.  Two Badge gives the ability to require two different valid badges to be presented at a reader before access will be granted to a portal.  
     
Visitor Management – The Frontier Visitor Management Option supports interfaces with the top two Visitor Management Systems: EasyLobby and StopWare.  
     
Watch List – Proven at some of the nation’s busiest airports, the Frontier Watch List feature compares names listed on the “No-Fly” and “Selectee” lists with names in Frontier’s badge database.  This unique feature reveals Frontier badgeholders who potentially match either list.
