German to English translations [PRO]
Bus/Financial - Telecom(munications) / Financial projections
German term or phrase: Wachensteuerung
The term an item on the list contained in this sentence:

Die Vereinigung von Funk-Telefonie, Sprachaufzeichnung, Wachensteuerung, Türsprechstellen und Videoüberwachung über eine intuitive Bedienoberfläche liefert die optimale Kommunikationslösung für Ihren Leitstellenarbeitsplatz.

I suspect (and could be wrong) that it refers to systems that control the movements of security guards patrolling around a piece of real estate.

Any ideas?

TIA

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thanks very much! That looks like the meaning is correct. I was trying to avoid the term "guard" (because of its distracting historical associations), but if that expression is the standard one, I suppose I'm stuck with it.
