Gamewell-FCI by Honeywell of Northford, Conn., announces that its FocalPoint graphic workstations now include touchscreen monitors, high-speed desktop units and two mobile tablets.
Each FocalPoint unit provides bird’s-eye views down to floor-by-floor layouts of all monitored facilities and their fire alarm and emergency communications systems’ (ECS) major components, according to the company.
The desktop FocalPoint graphic workstation offers virtual switches, capable of being programmed to perform as many as 512 control functions, such as enable/disable of devices and the distribution of pre-recorded voice announcements to selected facility areas. The FocalPoint touchscreen monitor is a wall-mountable unit that provides real-time information as well as access to FocalPoint’s history log of events. Both desktop and touchscreen models can even be programmed to send immediate event reports via text or E-mail to any mobile device.
The FocalPoint mobile tablets allow users to access real-time graphical and history log information on the go. The rugged, touchscreen tablets feature Intel dual-core processors with as much as 120GB of storage and enhanced wireless capabilities to meet IEEE 802.11n wireless standards, according to the company.
