New Features

Integration with AXIS License Plate Scanners: BluSKY now integrates with AXIS License Plate Scanners, allowing for access control management in parking areas.

Improvements

Events History and Real-time Events: Users can now view the Camera Name in the Name field for video events, providing better event identification and tracking.

Interactive Maps - Beta: Users can now filter alarm events based on system, facility, and map. The right side tab displays up to 50 visible alarms, and users have options to view, update, create, and delete time blocks. Improved drag gestures and enhanced filtering capabilities based on system group and multiple selections have also been implemented. Additionally, users without alarm event subscriptions can now receive alarm events in the right side tab.

Analytics: New analytic graphs have been added, including "All events per facility by category" and "All people credentials." These graphs provide valuable insights into system performance and user credentials.

API: The API has been expanded to work with the BluB0X AI Controller. A new API call allows users to filter users based on employment term, providing more flexibility in user data retrieval.

Driver's License Scanner: The driver's license scanner has been updated with a renewed certificate and improved software that automatically renews the certificate each year.

Analytics Dashboard: The left panel of the analytics dashboard now lists all user-created and saved analytic graphs, which can be dragged and dropped onto the dashboard area. Users can edit, update, save, and delete dashboards, as well as arrange analytics with the grid auto arrange button.

Intercom: Relays to fire can be configured in the Intercom settings, enhancing general functionality.

Personnel Import: The personnel import feature has been improved with various enhancements.

  • Data is now exported before each import, allowing easy rollback in case of issues.
  • Default settings for roles, access levels, and access level groups are automatically applied, eliminating the need for explicit addition in the import sheet.
  • Start and end dates can now be set for credentials, offering better control over card activation and expiration.

  • Data export for occupancies and vendors is now available, enabling configuration adjustments.
