The Ness M1 Gold offers unequalled value to System integrators, installers, and end-users.
Unlike panels that may be strong in automation but weak in security (or vice versa), the M1 Gold boasts a rock-solid security foundation with the most imaginative and powerful automation functionality available.
Integrators and Installers will value the flash memory firmware, RS-232 serial port, ethernet connectivity option, fast PC programming, and ease of installation.
End users will welcome the quality and futuristic capabilities of the versatile keypad, voice telephone dialler and the built-in telephone remote. The 500+ word vocabulary pleasantly announces system status, configurable in any sequence to alleviate user intimidation.
M1 offers the flexibility to integrate industry-standard systems and components for easy upgrades and system expansion. In addition to the powerful digital dialler, the M1 has a built-in voice dialler, which can call any phone, on or off-site, including a mobile phone. Remote telephone control capability allows you to perform tasks; such as, change the temperature setting, control the water heater, lower the garage door, set lighting scenes, arm/disarm the system, control sprinklers, and more by simply picking up the phone œ any phone.

Features
Powerful Automation
- HVAC: heating/ cooling RCS, Aprilaire, etc
- Whole House Automation: Home Theatre / DVD / Audio Crestron, AMX, Control 4 etc
- Lighting Control: 2 way C-Bus Interface, Dynalite, iControl, X10, UPB, etc
The Ness-M1, together with the Ness-RP Automation Programming software offers powerful, easy to set up and manage, lifestyle enhancement features. The automation programming allows mixing and matching of lighting components, outputs (relays or voltage), thermostats, temperature sensors, and all the security inputs and features to integrate functions that add value and appeal to the owner/user/manager.
Whenever/And/Then rules can be set to turn on and off in response to a time of day, a certain sensor, or the arm/ disarm status of the system. Outputs can be set to control door strikes, irrigation sprinklers, circulating pumps, valves, outdoor signage, refrigeration etc. Automation tasks can also be driven by the built-in astronomic clock which calculates sunset/sunrise depending on your geographic location and also takes daylight savings into account.
You dream it, M1 does it!
Security System
- Input Expansion
- Output Expansion : Sprinklers / Front Gate / Siren / Garage Door / Strobe Lights / Machinery / Electric Locks / Industrial Controls
- 16 zones onboard: expandable to 208 zones
M1 can be expanded up to 208 inputs using up to 12 add-on Input Expanders. Each input can be programmed to be Normally Open, Normally Closed, End Of Line, High Security 4 State End Of Line or Analogue to suit a huge variety of detection and sensing devices such as motion sensors, mechanical contacts, fluid level sensors, gas sensors, smoke detectors, temperature sensors and many more.
Up to 12 Input Expanders, each with 16 zones can be added anywhere along the 4 wire data bus. The high-end security features include multiple user codes, multiple area operation and multiple arming levels such as Away, Stay, Stay Instant, Night, Night Instant, Holiday mode and other combinations. The onboard telephone dialler is capable of reporting alarm events to a central monitoring station and/or several private telephone numbers such as mobile phones.
Total Building integration
- Security
- Access Control
- Building Management: 10,000+ Access Control Doors
- 50,000+ Users
- 32 Areas
- 1000+ Inputs
Up to four M1 systems can be networked and interface with the Ness IDTeck suite of powerful access control systems. The range includes everything from a standalone single-door controller to networked systems up to 10,000+ doors. There are many integrated security and access control features available such as denying access to a user if an M1 security area is armed and the user does not have security system disarm rights, regardless of the user„s access control time schedule and access level. Once the area is disarmed, the user with the right access level will now be granted access. The powerful and user-friendly Ness Starwatch application software suites provide total solutions for access control and security management tool, time attendance, site management, lift control and centralised user management. The standard Ness Starwatch software includes user management of both access control credentials as well as M1 security codes. It includes alarm graphics for quick identification of alarm points, access doors and security areas control both for alarm event identification as well as user control of these points.
