The latest version of the UC-330 is now even easier to deploy. It now supports High-Speed (Fast) format in addition to ContactID. Furthermore, panel format is automatically detected, which means no configuration is required. The new model is also equipped with an RJ-11 connector used for both the dialer interface and 12V power.

Users of UHS equipment can now take advantage of the UAWebUI. This allows installers and control room personnel to securely control bypass relays, view system status and confirm alarm delivery.

The UC-330 low-power GPRS communicator is now available from UHS. The unit communicates with the control room via GPRS and connects to a panel's ContactID dialer port. It uses a meagre 80mA, so can be easily powered from the local alarm system's 12V auxiliary supply.

Diversified Australian company Hills Industries Limited has acquired a 51% controlling interest in UHS.

UHS Managing Director, Mr Ron Johan said that UHS was particularly excited to be joining a team with Hills' strength and depth of experience in the Australian security market. "Becoming part of the Hills group will enable us to maintain strong growth, while still remaining focused on what we do best - delivering innovative solutions to our customers," he said.
Hills Managing Director, Mr Graham Twartz, said "This acquisition is a great fit for our business and continues the rollout of Hills’ strategic plan to build a security business in Australia and New Zealand, that is second to none."
