2 hrs confidence: 
a logged patrol Explanation: Suggestion from a combo of various sources but one which I think could work here.

L’installation de cet équipement consiste à fixer ou à coller les **points de contrôles** sur le parcours de la ronde... http://www.kab-securite-privee.fr/informations/lieux-dinterv... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 45 mins (2020-12-16 10:13:37 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- You might find this helpful too, it describes very similar-sounding security patrols involving the use of technology: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guard_tour_patrol_system |
