SecuriLink UMS Universal Management System: a complete overview for an intuitively correct response
When there is a genuine threat and every second counts, people come under a great deal of stress. The new UMS Universal Management System from Securiton is a vital tool that actively supports its users in critical situations.
Modern businesses use all kinds of systems: fire and intrusion alarm systems, access control systems, video surveillance, and building management systems. This makes it very difficult for a single individual to keep track of everything, let alone respond quickly. What's needed is the ability to bundle and, at the same time, carefully weigh up all the information available. Tasks which the UMS Universal Management System from Securiton performs with the utmost reliability.
People easily panic in situations of crisis. Clear, rational thinking can be impaired, which in turn increases the likelihood of making the wrong decisions. The UMS defuses such situations by sorting the information, providing clear instructions on how to resolve the problem and, with its detailed, zoomable graphics complete with photos, floor plans and detector positions, an overview with a level of clarity that is unrivalled.
The task of a management system is to manage the available resources – and not require investments into new subsystems. That is why UMS was designed with maximum compatibility in mind. All the signal transmitters are connected via the relevant interfaces, regardless of manufacturer or make. And that's true of future developments, too. Future detection systems will also be integrated into the system without problems using new interfaces. The amount of configuration work required remains limited as the data is imported to UMS directly from the interface.
UMS operates independently of any particular platform. That means the software is able to run on all kinds of computer systems. The screen display is always identical. Even different language versions on the connected stations are not a problem, which vastly increases the level of acceptance and the safe operation of the system, particularly in regions where several languages are spoken. Maximum compatibility was also the keyword for the graphic format: UMS uses a high-quality, vector-oriented graphic format.
There are locations where trouble-free operation has to be guaranteed around the clock. UMS's comprehensive remote surveillance and remote control functions make it ideally suited for police and fire brigade control centres as well as banks, industrial plants, telecommunication centres, hospitals and shopping malls. And it's not just the system's protection against failure that is top notch, but also its encrypted communications.
