911Sentinel

Since October of 1998, when TX Technology was awarded its Trade Mark for
the 911SentinelŽ, this remote constant monitoring and control system has
serviced hundreds of facilities and applications.

Now, the new 7th generation smart monitoring and control system adds more
capability, more sensors points, RF-Wireless communication, TCP/IP speed
and an advanced intelligent architecture to meet the growing complexity of new
applications.

Because the 911Sentinel48Ž was designed around an industry standard PCI
architecture it can support more remote reporting, more remote notification,
more remote devices and more remote control applications than ever before.
And because it is based on PCI standards the choices will continue to grow.

Our monitoring systems were designed to function in unattended or seldom
attended fashion, be remote form the "user" and to control remote sensors and
functions. The 911Sentinel48Ž supports 48 sensor / transducer points from our
special high speed I/O board.

It monitors inputs from a wide range of sensors, transducer and analyzers.
The present variety includes: Normally Open/ Normally Closed, 0 - 5 vDC, 4-20
mA, 80K - 3.8 Meg Ohms.

It will alert, alarm and report to fifteen (15) mobile people or remote locations, in
any order you choose. It can communicate via modem and fax, RF wireless,
TCP/IP- Ethernet, LAN/WAN, and eMail methodologies.

The 911Sentinel48Ž will automatically engage eight (8) predetermined remedial
control functions that can begin before people arrive. These immediate
response control actions often mitigate damage. You program the control
parameters and when an "alarm" condition is discovered the control
management function will be initiated. You can start/stop motors, control
outputs, and calculate conditional Boolean AND/OR commands to be carried
out automatically. It may be the most powerful remote monitoring and control
system in the world.

New Flexibility

There are a number of ways to look at the Sentinel48Ž capabilities because it is
so flexible. As a special purpose computer system it is designed to monitor all
kinds of functions, "watch" sensor thresholds, send status reports to remote
places and to mobile people and broadcast alarms remotely whenever a pre-
programmed condition it met.

It can start and stop processes automatically based on your pre-programming.
It can even tell you when an alarm condition has been restored and keep track
of detailed data with a time stamped report of date, location, sensor condition,
sensor address.

It has a flexible power supply scheme including 12 Volts, 24 Volts, and 48 Volts.
And depending on the number of points being monitored and the number of PCI
slots in operation, it will operate on battery power for a long time. Or, if you
need longer remote energy try plugging it into a solar panel to add longevity to
the internal power source. This flexibility gives you more options to monitor
unmanned or seldom visited facilities, in places where no power is available or
where continuous power may be unreliable. It may be the most flexible remote
monitoring and control system on the planet.

Increased Control

You can take control of the Sentinel48Ž from anywhere in the world. You can
view current activities and adjust or change any of its parameters by "dialing
in" with a proper 3 level security set. You can refine sensor details, reporting
details, control activities, reporting parameters, and notification lists.

The Sentinel48Ž will support PCI devices of all kinds. With the high tech industry
announcing new PCI products every month your choices could be almost
unlimited.

The methods for alarm and problem reporting now include LAN, various
wireless data devices, RF, fax, Ethernet, alphanumeric pager, modem
connected printers, PC's, cell phones, email, and laptops. Others will be
added.

Security Protection

There are three (3) levels and two (2) layers of security within the system
software structure so that you have the flexibility to make your data and your
system secure.

Output Ports For Outboard Devices

Just in case you need more flexibility and want to connect external devices like
multi gigabit hard drives, computer screens, computers, analyzers, or printers
you will soon have the choice of connections to the Sentinel48Ž. There are two
(2) USB ports and two (2) RS 232 ports for your peripherals and systems.
These outboard ports are in addition to the PCI slots. This may make it the
most scalable monitoring system available.

Longevity

We have a reputation that extends back to 1968. We have well over 17,000
remote constant monitoring and control systems installed. In fact, systems
installed over 24 years ago are still providing faithful service. That's one way
our customers measure quality.
