Altronix Corp. today announced that it has received Lenel factory certification and joined the Lenel OpenAccess Alliance Program (OAAP). Altronix’s LINQ™ technology interfaces with the OnGuard® access control system and facilitates the remote monitoring and reporting of power diagnostics. These alerts minimize system downtime and eliminate unnecessary and costly service calls.

"Altronix has completed required factory testing at Lenel to validate the functionality of its interface to OnGuard. This provides users with a single software platform to monitor power supply status, receive alert messages, and manage settings at multiple sites with ease,” said John Marchioli, OAAP Product Management, Lenel. "We look forward to their continued involvement in the Lenel OpenAccess Alliance Program."

“By integrating with the OnGuard access control platform, we are now able to provide our mutual customers with a seamless interface for their Altronix products and their OnGuard system,” said Alan Forman, President, Altronix Corporation. “We are extremely pleased to provide this value-added benefit to this segment of our market.”

LINQ enables users to monitor power/diagnostics, receive emails and alert messages while managing settings of Altronix products with web-based management capabilities from OnGuard Alarm Monitoring stations or anywhere there’s a network connection. Employing an intuitive user interface, LINQ Dashboard allows users to manage multiple sites with ease, regardless of the number of monitored devices.
