2. 2 Opening / Introduction / Content System Innovation New Ways for Monitoring and Alarm Indication for Sprinkler Systems 1.Existing Systems / Current Market 2.What could a system solution be? 3.Functionality: Processing Events 4.Benefits of a system

3. 3 1. Existing Systems / Current Market  Required Standard: Notify events to a permanently occupied location  Companies with huge premises need signal exchanges  Signal exchanges exist but often only simple without details  Facility Managers want to have detailed information of signals

4. 4 What could a system solution be? Software Management system to process and forward signals from the connected Sprinkler control panels instantaneously, automatically or by interactive measures of operators. Signals with 100% detailed information Forwarding with Text and / or Graphic SMS em@il Web Access … using Management Software as Add-on for Monitoring a Sprinkler System

5. 5 Requirements 1. Addressable Field Devices (Loop) 2. Intelligent Sprinkler Panel (PLC) with addressable processing 3. Proprietary Interface ( send all types of statuses ) 4. Computer Software Solution 5. Safe transmission protocol (VPN) or an own company network Safe transmission protocol according to Standard What could a system solution be?

6. 6 Functionality: Automatic Forwarding ( Event routing ) SMS em@il  Send SMS or Email instantly to relevant staff  Detailed information of address, location, event type, time  Selectable according to type of event

7. 7 Functionality: CAD and Documents Import Interfaces to implement relevant documents  Vector Graphics: DWG, DXF, DGN, WMF  Pixel Graphics: Bmp, Jgp, Tiff, etc.  AutoCAD Interface with ATTRIBUTE identification for detector no. AutoCAD Monitoring System

8. 8 Functionality: Interactive measures by operator  Individual processing with proper measures  Complete required fields before the system returns to normal

9. 9  Endless huge memory ( limited by computer Hard Disk capacity)  Several Filter Options ( Date / Time / Location / Alarm Type) to create history-lists  Maintenance reports can be created  Text and all graphic animation are saved and can review Functionality: Event History / Archive

10. 10 The Management Software should be open to implement relevant systems  IO-Controller (Modbus TCP)  GAS Panels Systems  PA-Systems  Intruder System  Video Systems / Control of PTZ cameras  Wind measuring (Direction / Speed / Temperature)  Master Clock  OPC Server and Client for signal exchange to DCS Functionality: Multi Interfaces

11. 11 Benefits of a system  Distribute detailed Information to the relevant staff immediately  Proof of maintenance done  One Software for all systems  Modern solution for handling indvidual signals
