Tonight Zenien presented to a community forum organised by the Department of Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy. Together with Senator Stephen Conroy and other esteemed guest from NextGen Networks, The WA Government and NBN Co, Zenien discussed the benefits of the National Broadband network for our clients and CCTV installations.

We would like to thank both iiNet and the Dept of Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy for the fantastic opportunity to present at this forum and share our excitement about the NBN rollout.

For more information about how Zenien and the forthcoming National Broadband network could assist your business, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Zenien was proud to showcase its latest CCTV installation to Prime Minister Kevin Rudd at a meeting to highlight the use of Safer Suburbs funding.

The meeting briefed the Prime Minister on the joint initiative between The Kewdale Tavern, The Coxon Group and The City of Belmont which has resulted in the successful implementation of a new CCTV system at the re-developed Kewdale Tavern.  Zenien in partnership with its sister company Cary’s Electrical Services installed 31 cameras and the associated infrastructure within a tight deadline overcoming many challenges that would have been associated with conventional CCTV systems.

The advanced technology installed by Zenien enables users to quickly and easily access high quality footage with images that can be forwarded direct to the appropriate authorities.  The technology has features which ensure easy location of captured instances and includes motion detection and very low light capability.

The Prime Minister showed a great deal of interest in how the system was capable of enhancing the security in the area, as well as integrating with City of Belmont infrastructure, community assets and local businesses. The Kewdale Tavern installation is a hub for future expansion of the City of Belmont CCTV program providing a secure environment for people working and living in the area.

Dennis Graesslin from Zenien said “The system was designed to utilise the most advanced cameras for the application and to effectively integrate this with the best CCTV video management software currently available.  This allowed us to achieve the best outcome for our clients”.  The partnership between Zenien and Cary’s Electrical Services ensured smooth application of the technology from design, to implementation with skills from both organisations called upon to effectively deliver the project.

Recently Zenien completed the electrical and Information technology requirements for two “Oscar” trailer mounted camera systems. Designed and installed for the City of Swan in Perth Western Australia, the systems are rugged, park anywhere and monitor remotely surveillance devices.

Using mostly Bosch technology with Zenien know how, the “Oscar” trailers will be used in during events such as concerts and the Spring in the Valley festival. They will also be used to remotely monitor and record crime problem areas or areas where graffiti and anti-social behaviour have been observed.

The trailers have the capability to be monitored and controlled either using localised wireless networking systems or across the internet using 3G mobile access. We are also looking at extending the remote capabilities in various other ways such as wireless mesh solutions.

The cameras we used were the Bosch MIC 400 Extreme Cameras. These cameras are impressive feats of engineering and typical Bosch quality and innovation. IP68 rated with brushless motors for ultra reliability, the MIC 400 camera also has an impressive optical features.

The cameras are mounted on telescopic camera poles that are elevated using pressurised air to an approximate height of 7 metres. This system gives a fantastic birds-eye view and is vandal resistant.

These systems were launched by Hon Brendan O’Connor – Federal Minister for Home Affairs on 4 May 2010 and Zenien has received a considerable amount of interest and positive feedback.

Zenien would like to thank the City of Swan for the opportunity to work on such an interesting project and for their amazing engineering skills. We would also like to thank Bosch, MEY Equipment and Cary’s Electrical Services for all their fantastic assistance and efforts.

Zenien has developed a Rapid Deployment Camera System.

This product uses the latest in camera technology and can be easily located and relocated from site to site with minimum effort.  The system can be customised to suit almost any application.

Data is stored internally and can be access by built-in WiFi or 3G modem for remote viewing.

The Zenien Rapid Deployment Camera System has been developed specifically for the harsh WA environment and contains many features that are not available on other system.

Axis has recently released new modular video surveillance control devices. The T8310 Series control devices are a welcome alternative to the existing Axis 295 joystick system and further enhances the ability to easily control Zenien’s CCTV systems.

Zenien’s Milestone clients should have existing support for these joysticks. Our GPAC System clients may have a short wait, but we are sure GPAC will support such devices in the near future. With the new release of GPAC and its new PTZ controls, devices such as this can bring the monitoring centre capabilities to your nearest web browsers.

AXIS T8310 Video Surveillance Control Board comprises 3 units:

AXIS T8311 Video Surveillance Joystick, a three-axis joystick with a turn knob for pan/tilt/zoom control and six push buttons. It gives responsive and accurate control of all Axis PTZ and PTZ dome network cameras.

AXIS T8312 Video Surveillance Keypad, has ten application defined hotkeys and 12 preset keys and is used to navigate quickly between workspaces, cameras, views and PTZ presets

AXIS T8313 Video Surveillance Jog Dial, used to jog and dial through recorded video, has apart from the navigation dial also six application defined hotkeys.

Please contact Zenien if you would like more information on these control devices, ETCorp’s GPACSystems or Milestone solutions.

Zenien are pleased to announce that as of March 2010 and the successful completion of the Milestone Advanced Certification course we are now Gold partners with Milestone.

This makes Zenien one of only a few certified Milestone installers in Western Australia, and what we believe to be the only practising certified partners in the state. This makes us the obvious choice for any Milestone installations in this area. We are also happy to service the Northern Territory (Zenien and Cary’s Electtrical Services already have a presence in NT) and South Australia.

Key staff at Zenien travelled to Sydney for the week long Advanced Certification course recently which included the Analytics component (facial/licence plate recognition and other features).

Please note: Zenien can also offer independent consulting services to assess your tender, requirements or to provide project scope guidelines and have many years of experience in doing so.

Zenien has been announced as the successful tenderer of a 3 year contract for the provision and installation of CCTV and related security solutions by the City of Belmont. We are proud of our efforts thus far and are excited by the opportunities this decision has created. We will be working with the City of Belmont, commercial property owners, property developers and the community to design and install industry leading CCTV/Security solutions.

We will be using some of the latest technology for CCTV cameras, event triggering systems, networking solutions and recording systems. We expect to fully utilise our ever increasing experience with such installations to help make the City of Belmont and surrounds the area of choice to live, work and establish businesses. We firmly believe that together with our partners and the City of Belmont themselves, we will make this project a model for organisations to meet their security goals in the future.

Predominately using ETCorps GPACSystem for our security solutions, we will also be bringing some of the latest directional wireless, wireless mesh, IP Cameras and fibre optic technologies to our overall solutions. Together with Cary’s Electrical Services, we have worked hard on developing our solutions and installation techniques to be cost effective, long lasting and top quality.

Whilst the City of Belmont contract will certainly keep us busy, we are also following up a significant amount of other opportunities with similar local government bodies, commercial enterprises and some of our industrial clients. Finally the security industry is evolving away from analogue and traditional monitoring into a more cost effective, higher quality and self aware systems.

Zenien was recently highlighted in the Western Australian Local Government Association’s “Western Councillor” publication for our work in the installation of the GPAC CCTV system at Kooyong road in Rivervale.

Zenien has completed and launched the Kooyong Road Rivervale CCTV project for the City of Belmont. The system was a pilot project for City of Belmont and Zenien, in partnership with Cary’s Electrical services was contracted to complete the design, installation and commissioning of the system. The project consisted of installing 2 pole mounted CCTV cameras with advanced anti-tamper measures an highly secure wireless networking links. The cameras were IP/Network based and communicated with a central server which can be monitored across the Internet using a web browser or an iPhone.

We also integrated numerous analogue cameras and added some internal IP based CCTV cameras to complete the solution. Furthermore, Zenien installed advanced triggering systems to detect alarm conditions and duress alerts in both commercial and residential locations. The GPAC system we installed has a myriad of actions based on set input or conditions, for example it can force cameras in the area to Pan/Tilt and Zoom to locations that are covering the area of interest or triggered location and at the same time alert guards to attend the area.

The system can be monitored across the Internet from any location and the systems superior software allows the WA Police to login to the system without requiring any additional software (generally forbidden for information security reasons).

Below are a few photos from the project.

The system was launched by the City of Belmont Mayor and other esteemed guests on 20 November 2009. Zenien and ETCorp followed up with a hugely successful breakfast at Burswood on the 25 November 2009 which sparked much interest in the security/CCTV markets. Zenien is currently in discussions with a significant number of interested parties to see if our solution is suitable for their specific needs.
