Alert by Micromedia
is a very smart software product for remote monitoring of automated systems.
Let’s suppose that you manage a plant producing beer, food, pharma
products or cosmetics. Or a chemical plant where huge amounts of oil, gas, etc.
are processed. Or an utility supplying electricity, water, etc. Or a dam, a
railway system, etc.
How much do you loose, both in economic and image terms, if
the plant suddenly stops for any reason? Maybe thousands of euro, maybe tens of
thousands or even hundred of thousands just to go back to regular production or
supply. But your image will remain damaged for a long time, maybe for ever. And
customers will switch to another provider because they feel that you are not
reliable.

This nightmare is over. Now there is a new solution that can
effectively help you to prevent these disasters. It’s called ‘Alert’, it’s made
by Micromedia.
With Alert it becomes possible to monitor and manage in real
time, wherever you are, data and alarms from a wide range of automated
applications (SCADA systems , PLCs, remote sites, etc.) using a Windows-based
platform.
When an alarm condition is detected, Alert automatically
informs the relevant staff using all available media (phone, SMS, pager, email,
fax, etc.) in any language selected by the customer. Calls are made according
to a schedule associated with each alarm type, to guarantee a live call
tracking (transmitted information have been taken into account) with all
necessary escalation procedures.
Moreover, Alert integrates advanced on-call management
features, allowing the user to define in a simple and intuitive way the
operators that need to be warned. When an alarm is detected, the operators who
have to be warned are selected based on their on-call group membership attached
to the alarm and the on-call schedule associated to each group.
The selected operators are reached using media on the
numbers assigned to them in their call list. Calls are made according to their
order in the list until the operator is considered effectively warned (call
transmitted and acknowledged).
If a call fails to warn an operator (all tries to the
numbers in his list have been unsuccessfully), relief operators can be called.
If an entire group cannot be called successfully, relief groups are called.
Maximum safety, complete traceability: Alert makes every
effort to insure maximum operability and traceability of failures, alarms and
operations. A redundant installation is possible with automatic synchronization
of stations to ensure maximum availability of remote monitoring. All events are
logged: alarm history, calls, operations, statistical treatment, etc., with the
possibility of exporting logs in real time to an external database.
The references of Alert around Europe are impressive in many
industries.
Now, Alert is directly available also in Estonia, Latvia,
Finland, Russia and Lithuania.
What does it mean? In these web-oriented days
you could buy Alert directly from Micromedia, of course, isn’t it?
But who will provide the post-sale support of the product in
your local language? Who will reach you physically if you don’t know how to
write a script or how to interface Alert with your system? Who will train your
operators with proven courses?
We can do it.

N.B. And what about a mobile version of Alert? It
can be used by single workers going alone to mantain or repair plants in remote
sites. The available functions are many. For instance, if a worker falls down
from stairs or has some kind of injury that forces him to lay down, an
automatic ‘horizontal position’ detector can immediatly send an alert to a
support center. A life can be saved, in this way…
