Matrix V Guard & Patrol is an additional security feature involving the close monitoring of guard patrol movement through their assigned routes in security areas. During a Guard Tour, patrolling guards swipe their Guard Tour cards specific card readers along their tour, which register on the security interface. Each Guard Tour has a strict schedule, with a list of periods during which the patrolling guard must swipe his or her Guard Tour card at a particular Tour card reader. If a guard is late swiping his or her card, of misses swiping a card reader along the tour, it is automatically assumed that the guard may have run into some king of trouble and an alert will activated, informing other security personnel.
