ACCESS CONTROL
NEW APP FOR VIDEX
GSM INTERCOM RANGE
App enables
easier
programming
& usability.
» » VIDEX, A LEADING
manufacturer and supplier in
access control and door entry
kits, has added a new app to its
flagship GSM intercom range,
the popular entry systems that
provide greater security and
freedom to users.
The new app simplifies
programming and usability
for both end users and
installers. Available for iOS
and Android devices, the
app allows you to program
the GSM intercom system by
automatically creating the
SMS messages.
James Gray project
manager at Videx said:
“Features include the ability
to activate the door or gate
either for the programmed
time or to latch and unlatch
it. This can be done via text
message or dialling using
the dial to open feature. You
can also add and modify
numbers called, the dial to
open numbers, access codes
including temporary access
codes for one-time visitors,
as well as proximity tags that
are used to open the gate or
door.”
Up to 10 GSM intercoms
can be stored in the app.
Settings such as master
code, telephone number, call
button telephone numbers
and free access settings are
all stored to save the user
time while using the app. An
advanced version of the app
will also be available soon
with even more features for
the installer or managing
agent of the system.

The app is not restricted to
the GSMPRO version of the
Videx GSM intercom systems
and can also be used with the
Digital GSM, vandal resistant
GSM’s, multiple entrance
2270 interface and the GSM
lite.
James added: “Users can
also set up free access time
periods where the gate
or door can be held open
for visitors. The ability to
decode received messages
from the intercom panel
is also included and some
of these messages can also
be imported and saved in
the app for future use. For
example, if the intercom
call button has already been
programmed it’s possible
to receive the telephone
numbers for the call button
and import them into the
app.”
Users will be able to
download the app directly
from Google’s ‘Play store’
and Apple’s ‘App store’ free of
change. The app can be used
with all current and older
model GSM intercoms.
