What it can do — Abbas Dominus3 Security System¶

Feature by feature, as assessed on 2026-09-01. Read the limitation column before you promise a customer something the hardware cannot do.

Connection, health and audit¶

Feature	Supported	Limitation
Connection & session	Partially	The panel connects with a name and password over a fixed network port, but whether that link is encrypted in a production installation still has to be settled with the manufacturer.
Liveness / keepalive	Partially	A lost connection is noticed when the panel software reports it or the next regular reading fails, so a link that goes quiet without warning can stay unnoticed for up to one polling interval.
Time synchronization	Yes	—
Offline audit recovery	Partially	Anything the panel recorded while the connection was down is collected afterwards, but how far back its own log reaches before the oldest entries are overwritten is not stated anywhere.
Health & supervision	Partially	Tampering, lost modules, mains failure and battery problems are reported for the controller and its modules, but a fault on an individual detector arrives looking the same as an alarm from it.
Configuration & reset audit	Partially	A configuration change, a clock change and a restart are recorded, but putting the panel back to an earlier configuration or wiping it is not reported at all.
Configuration discovery	Partially	Areas, modules, detectors, outputs, readers and doors are read in from the panel automatically, but which contact watches which door has to be filled in by hand and the entry/exit side of a two-reader door should be checked after import.

Feature	Supported	Limitation
Credential management	Partially	Cards and PINs can be added, changed and removed, but the system cannot read back the list the panel currently holds, and only cards and PIN codes are stored.
Card formats	Yes	—
Sync mode	Yes	—
Reset & restore	Partially	The panel's access data can be wiped and re-sent, but there is no automatic restore of what it held before the wipe.
Double-sync safety	Yes	—
Schedules / time profiles	Yes	—
Access levels / groups	Yes	—
Holidays	Yes	—
Antipassback	Partially	The panel's own anti-passback is reported when it blocks a card, but anti-passback zones cannot be set up from the system.
Door control	Partially	A door can be released, held open, closed and locked, but locking blocks the latch rather than the reader, so a card swipe can still be recorded while the door is locked.
Reader mode / enable	No — the hardware cannot do it	A reader turning on or off is reported, but readers cannot be switched on or off from the system.
Access events	Yes	—
Enrollment	No — the hardware cannot do it	A card or code cannot be captured live at a reader from the system; credentials are entered and then synchronized.

Feature	Supported	Limitation
Arm / disarm	Partially	Areas can be switched on and off, but not into a partial mode such as staying at home, and switching on while a detector is still active has to be done at the keypad.
Bypass	Yes	—
Alarm reset	Not included	An alarm that is standing on the panel cannot be acknowledged or cleared from the system; someone has to do it at the keypad.
Partitions / zones	Partially	Areas and detectors come in from the panel with the detectors already assigned to their areas, but a distress module has to be assigned by hand and groupings of several areas are not shown.
Alarms / tampers / troubles / restores	Partially	Alarms, tampering, module and power faults are reported together with their return to normal, but a few panel messages arrive without a meaning attached, and a fault on a detector cannot be told apart from an alarm from it.
User-code management	Partially	People get a code and the right to switch their areas on and off, but every one of them is an ordinary user, so a code that silently raises an alarm when someone is forced to use it cannot be set up.
Entry / exit delay	Partially	The countdown before an area switches on is shown, but the countdown that starts when someone walks into a switched-on area appears only as an ordinary switch-off.
Sounder / alarm control	Unverified — manufacturer information is incomplete	Sirens cannot be silenced or test-triggered from the system, and an alarm test has to be run at the panel.
