With
the advances in technology that have occurred in recent years alarm systems
are able to provide very sophisticated monitoring functions with a great
degree of reporting detail.
The complexity of these systems and
the increasingly large numbers of monitored functions require a means of
presenting the information in a manner that can be readily assimilated
at a central location.
Vineyard is a computer aided
Alarm Annunciation, General Monitoring, and Event Recording, graphical
display system for use with data gathering equipment dispersed around large
sites.
The scheme may be tailored to either
directly poll distributed data input modules and transducers, or
to receive information via sub-system equipment such as Addressable Fire
Panels and Data multiplexing systems.
The system gives the operator comprehensive
information on overall site system status by means of both descriptive
texts and 'mimic' screens which provide geographical display of monitored
function location at various levels of magnification.
Used in conjunction with safety monitoring
systems such as fire & security equipment Vineyard provides the ultimate
solution for the monitoring and display of alarm and control data related
to establishments such as industrial sites, public facilities, military
installations, hotels, shopping malls and other similar complexes.
Vineyard provides the means to assemble
data from diverse monitoring equipments and display it at control centres
in a consolidated & clear manner for operator assimilation and management. |
