Overview

Sentient - One View. One Interface. Multi-system Monitoring. Multiple Controls.

Security Control Management Solution

The SENTIENT software combined with the MACH3D dashboard from Orange Business Services is a powerful middleware solution that bridges the digital divide between traditional security systems application with the latest in digital technologies. The ergonomically design MACH3D offers unrivaled levels of system performance and reliability which is easy to configure, use and manage.

Designed for vertical industries, and alternative to the MACH3D dashboard, is a touchscreen interface controller that monitors and manages a security control room successfully. Security personnel are provided with a reliable monitoring system that includes building maps and security equipment locations to provide them with immediate information to enable them to make decisive decisions, and fast responses.

Enterprise Wide Flexibility
The SENTIENT solution offers complete freedom as far as physical layout of the system is concerned. The SENTIENT platform can be located virtually anywhere in the building or campus. Connection to a single MACH3D dashboard is via one network cable.

Fully Reliable
The SENTIENT solution offers high availability with redundant CPU and non-blocking capacity thanks to a distributed architecture based on FDDI solutions. A duplicated bus offering high availability leads to a truly resilient architecture for security control centres.

Implementation : Making It Happen
The SENTIENT solution is easily deployed with rapid implementation to achieve maximum return on investment. Security Control Officers are provided with product training on management procedures and operational tasks to ease the transition process.

Maintenance : Ensuring System Continuity
The reliability of a system is as important as its intrinsic performance. The SENTIENT solution is designed to keep system downtime to a minimum with a resilient architecture in a security control environment, suitable for law enforcement and public safety.

Evolution : Facing The Future
SENTIENT solution is designed to work with a wide range of security systems in the market. With a modular system design architecture, SENTIENT solution can easily integrate to any 3rd Party systems using an SDK (Software Development Kit) made available to technology partners.

Features

Intuitive Touchscreen Technology
Employing state of the art visual technologies, the MACH3D is an intelligent interactive multicolour matrix touchscreen system that interfaces to various security sub-systems over high level interfaces, I/O relay contacts and communication protocols.

Multiple System Monitoring
Electronic Security Professionals are not Information Security Professionals. Very often, a complicated PC monitor screen using the latest CCTV, Alarm Handling or Access Control system is very confusing to traditional electronic security professionals who are used to hard wired analog interfaces. The MACH3D enables security control room operators to monitor multiple systems over a single user friendly touchscreen interface.

Flexible and Wide Integration Capabilities
The MACH3D offers a flexible integration to security and communication sub-systems including intercom, CCTV system, alarm handling , access control, paging, security lighting, car parking and door locking systems. The SENTIENT system offers complete freedom as far as physical layout of the system is concerned. The SENTIENT platform can be located virtually anywhere in the building or campus. Connection to a single MACH3D dashboard is via one network cable.

Fast, Secured and User Friendly
The MACH3D dashboard is designed to give total support offering total reliability in a tough and fast changing environment. Communication and Control technologies and services that simplify control room tasks and remove complexities to give security control room personnel the split second advantage.

Resilient and Reliable Architecture
The SENTIENT system offers high availability with redundant CPU and non-blocking capacity thanks to a distributed architecture based on FDDI solutions. A duplicated bus offering high availability leads to a truly resilient switching architecture.
