Ateksis is at Medipol University, Kavacık Campus

If you open İstanbul’s map on a table, take a compass onto the center and arch it, you will see Kavacık neighborhood of Beykoz district as the center of the compass.  Kavacık is one of the attraction centers of the growing city İstanbul with Yavuz Sultan Selim Bridge, North Marmara highway and Europe’s largest airport under construction as well as the financial center project just right beside it. In an era that knowledge and education seal the fate of countries, Medipol University is rising up as a great educational institution in Kavacık right now.

Medipol University is a foundation university which will be settled on an area of 1,000.000 m2 as completed.  The mission of Türkiye Eğitim ve Sağlık Araştırma Vakfı (TESA-Turkish Education Health Research Foundation), the founding president of which is honorable Dr. Fahrettin Koca, is to raise people who are sensitive to problems and priorities, adopt the wisdom and being scientific as a life-style, internalize the up-to-date information and technology, and put those to use in an atmosphere of freedom and autonomy as well as producing and implementing the knowledge needed by our society to the benefit of humanity.

Medipol University is an extensive education network incorporating numerous faculties from medical to engineering faculties and from faculties of social sciences to fine arts as well as institutes and colleges. It aims at creating a new educational base with its complex inclusive of many combined-usage and providing opportunities of accommodation and social life for students in addition to the large training halls, classes, amphitheaters and laboratories.

It must also be emphasized that the group is the title sponsor of Başakşehir, the self-consistent team of our league. As Ateksis, we also continue to provide service on systems such as fire detection, emergency announcement, card entrance and CCTV for the University projects of Medipol family to whom we have provided the alike systems for Medipol Mega Health Complex project, which is the largest private health investment in Turkey.

In this rapidly growing campus, two faculty buildings and a girls’ dormitory are active. We are going to mention about the security rather than the comfort and technical amenities of the students in dormitories which are operated with the thought in mind that “your children are entrusted to our security”.

Entrance to university campus is through turnstile with student id card. Also, at the entrance of dormitories speed gate turnstiles are operated. All passage authorities are handled vie card entrance system while the entrance and leaving details are kept and reported in the system. Therefore, the authorities are able to take electronic register instantaneously.

Bosch brand fire detection system is used throughout the campus and dormitories. Operating integratedly with one another, the system is monitored on graphical screen at the central security and in case of a warning, it can be identified over the floor plans.  All equipment of the system from power supplies to flashers and from detectors to modules have EN54 standards. Fire alarm system is integrated with the smoke extraction system in compliance with the fire scenario while the emergency announcement system which is an absolute must for an effective evacuation is established so as to have all equipment featuring EN54 standards. Modular Fire Panel Bosch 5000 Series including the newly updated versions of EN54-2 and EN54-4 conforms to the existing standards. Innovative FPA 5000 panel can easily be implemented to local conditions and regulations by means of modular configuration. D Block fire alarm system is composed of 64 loops and 5000 points in total while the Girls’ Dormitory is composed of 32 loops and 2000 points.

Bosch fire detection system and Bosch Praesideo emergency announcement system communicate with OPC via TCP/IP network. This enables us to flexible evacuation scenarios based on software by this feature that unites with Praesideo’s unique 28ch sound architecture, it is possible to airplay from various parts of the campus while making manual announcements from other places. More particularly, 4 emergency announcement messages can be broadcasted simultaneously.  All system from speaker lines to microphone capsule is supervised. Praesideo system interface enables an easy management for the end-user. Systems operator can easily make message-zone configuration through the numerical keypad at the call station.

D Block emergency announcement system is composed of 102 emergency announcement zone while the girls’ dormitory is composed of 44 emergency announcement zones.

In common areas and classrooms, 6W false ceiling type and in technical areas, 20W cabinet type speakers were used. All speaker are compatible with EN54-24 standards. The most appropriate ones among the 3W-6W-10W-20W options were analyzed and used in accordance with the physical structures and needed sound levels of the spaces so that both required sound volume and high intelligibility were ensured.

Bosch BIS System was used as the Central software.   BIS was established with 416 door licenses, 3 workstation licenses and 61,000 cardholder licenses. Once again, 61,000 cardholder emphasizes the student potential of the university.

Bosch BIS is a modular software. It can be upgraded with need-oriented modules and there is no limit for application. This matches up with the future projection of the university as well.

Bosch AMC2 Access Control pannels are directly connected to TCP/IP and communicate with BIS over TCP/IP network. The memory cards on AMC2s lead the way for upgrade according to the needs.

Now, 700 cameras run for the safety of the students in the campus. Bosch brand Cameras are positioned only in the common in accord with the needs.  Cameras with 1920 x 1080, 5MP and 4K resolution are preferred according to the usage area. All cameras are working properly with Bosch’s redundant and trustworthy ISCSI / VRM topology, also storage units operate in redundancy.  In the security room, twelve 46”-monitors are located and 30-day recordings can be kept in 7 archiving units with over 400 TB storage. Moreover, in case of an alarm, live display of the related areas are monitored with 2 spot monitor and audio alarm is sounded. VMS software is also graphical-based as in the fire system. Operator can see and manage bot incoming alarms and all camera symbols on map and floor plans.

In the project that Duetron VMS software developed by Ateksis is used in, a user can follow the cameras in the alarming zones through the graphical screen by means of map support. Faster, more understandable and truer means of detection are provided to the user by way of the alarms occurring on the graphical screen. Live footages from the desired area can be rapidly and easily received through the same graphical screen. Emergency announcement, access control and CCTV systems are programmed in a way to communicate with each other and as applicable to security scenario.  Operator can take the closest footage to his/her screen if an announcement from fire system is received. Overall design and implementation processes of emergency announcement, fire detection, IP CCTV and access control systems of the buildings were carried out by Ateksis.
