Otiumtek Onyx

Manage who enters, when, and with which permissions.

Centralize people, visitors, and vehicles, keep access rights up to date in Dahua DSS and HikCentral, and get the information you need to run operations more clearly.

Use it as your central platform or alongside ERP and HR. Day-to-day tools cover visits, reports, and traceability — plus an optional module for security guard patrol management.

What it manages

People, visitors, vehicles, and permissions — in one place

Onyx concentrates the information your operation uses to control entry. It does not replace Dahua DSS or HikCentral: it organizes data and publishes it so cameras, readers, and access control work with up-to-date information.

People

Onboarding, offboarding, and records for those who need regular access.

Visitors

Schedule, register, and look up visits.

Vehicles

Plates linked to people or visits, ready to publish to the security platform.

Permissions

Access groups and rules kept current in Dahua DSS or HikCentral.

Synchronization

Controlled publication, delivery history, and detection when something was changed outside Onyx.

If your equipment recognizes plates, that recognition runs on Dahua DSS or HikCentral. Onyx supplies the authorized vehicle directory.

In operations

Built for the gatehouse and for supervision

Onyx organizes day-to-day information: visits, permissions, activity, and patrols. Paper and duplicate entry are context — the product is operational control.

Searchable visits

When records live on paper or in scattered systems, finding a visit takes time.

Before

Gatehouse paper logs and slow look-ups when you need to see who entered.

After

Visits recorded in Onyx, with search, filters, and history.

Finding background stops depending on scattered folders.

Queues and delays at the gate

Organized visitor management reduces manual work at the desk. We do not promise zero queues or fixed wait times: the benefit is less operational friction when data is already ready for access control.

Duplicate data between business systems and security

If someone is created in ERP or HR and typed again into security, errors and delays follow. Onyx can sync that information into Dahua DSS and HikCentral, or act as the master system when there is no ERP yet.

Reports to identify busier time bands

Operational reports on visits and access for a period, with busier time bands and PDF export. Useful for planning with historical data — not for predicting tomorrow.

Additional module

Security guard patrol management

Define routes and checkpoints, schedule rounds, record execution with photographic evidence, and review history and completion.

  • Define routes and checkpoints for security staff
  • Schedule rounds with reusable time windows
  • Record execution at each point, with photographic evidence
  • Round history, completion statuses, and supervisor review

When something happens, you can search visits, review history, and consult the action audit in Onyx. Video review stays in Dahua DSS or HikCentral.

How you use it

With your business systems — or as the central platform

The same Onyx, depending on how your information is organized today.

With ERP or HR

Onyx receives or syncs enterprise information and publishes it to Dahua DSS or HikCentral. Less duplicate entry across teams.

Without ERP or HR

Manage people, visitors, and vehicles directly in Onyx, with the same publication into security. You can add ERP or HR later.

Publication includes queue, retries, and history. If someone edits the security platform outside Onyx, you can compare and correct drift.
