Upcoming discontinuations

as of 10/31/2024:


ACC Android App (SMS/TCP) for SMS and TCP channel

The ACC Android App (SMS/TCP) for the SMS and TCP channel will be discontinued on October 31st, 2024. 

Please note: The ACC App for iOS and Android (for Smartphone channel - from ACC V21) and the ACC channels SMS and TCP are not affected by this discontinuation. They will remain available as usual.
From October 31st, 2024, the ACC Android app (SMS/TCP) will no longer be available for download on our website. You will still be able to use the app after 10/31/2024, but without any guarantee or support from us. 

ACC V21

ACC version V21 will be discontinued on October 31st, 2024. After this date, no more extensions will be available for this version. Technical support will also be discontinued.

Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2

From October 31st, 2024, Windows Server 2012 R2 will no longer be supported for use with the ACC.
The reason for this decision is that Microsoft has discontinued extended support for Windows Server 2012 R2 as of December 10th, 2023. This discontinuation has a direct impact on the compatibility of the SQL Server Express supplied with the ACC. We therefore strongly recommend migrating to a more up-to-date version of Windows Server.


Are you affected by one of the discontinuations?
Then please contact our sales team at sales@alarmcontrolcenter.de. We will be happy to advise you.
