| A comprehensive reference for electronic security systems, Security guides the reader through the selection, installation, testing and maintenance of security equipment in 35 categories, from interior and exterior
sensors to security systems. The uninformed purchaser, the security-conscious manager, and the novice security practitioner will find that this book demystifies the "black art" of security systems design via clear
descriptions of operation principles and extensive practical advice. The more knowledgeable reader will find a unique reference and compendium of information usually found in many separate sources.
Each device explained in this book is broken down into sections covering its principles of operation, uses, applications, equipment types, and advantages and disadvantages. This important reference outlines the data objectively, enabling the reader to independently make informed judgements about competing bids or proposals,
compile a brief, and design or maintain a security system. |
