ConnexALL Notification Server (CNS)
The ConnexALL Notification Server (CNS) is the processor of the ConnexALL software and represents the core for any application. The CNS is responsible for linking and decoding data coming from any

Serial Input Client (SIC)
Virtual Callpoint Client (VCC)
Device Assignment Client (DAC)
Voice Response Client (VRC)
Manual Paging Client (MPC)
Information System Client (ISC)
Web Paging Client (WPC)

The CNS also handles the prescribed output actions to the:

Radio Paging Client (RPC)
Wireless Telephony Client (WTC)
E-mail Output Client (EOC)
Active Alarm Client (AAC)
Personal Assistant Client (PAC)
Wallboard Output Client (WOC)
Report Management Client (RMC)

ConnexALL Wireless Telephoney Client (WTC)
The goal of the ConnexALL application is to achieve seamless integration with today's wireless digital telephones. The Wireless Telephony Client (WTC) represents the link between ConnexALL and a wireless telephony controller.

All notification and feature sessions with the various wireless handsets are managed directly by the associated WTC clients. The WTC takes advantage of the bi-directional communication that is possible with modern wireless PABX handsets.

ConnexALL Radio Paging Client (RPC)
The Radio Paging Client (RPC) transmits numeric/alphanumeric paging requests to the facility’s paging network. Each RPC can be configured individually to communicate with standard TAP/PET/SMS paging equipment (private or public), or other supported private transmitters.

Individual RPC clients communicate with the ConnexALL server through the facility’s LAN/WAN infrastructure. This allows for geographically distributed paging transmitters to be unified into one homogeneous system. Using this technique, it is possible to deploy multiple low-power transmitters, in lieu of one central high-power transmitter.

ConnexALL Email Output and Personal Assistant Client (EOC/PAC)
In a world where technology and information go hand in hand, the multiplication of email accessibility and communication enable information availability just about everywhere. The Email Output Client (EOC) extends ConnexALL's notification capability to include SMTP email and can be sent to any number of distinct email addresses.

This application is made possible in the same intuitive “drag-and-drop” manner as wireless telephones and alphanumeric pagers. In the same manner, ConnexALL can send messaging to any personal digital assistant on a private or public network.

ConnexALL Manual Paging and Web Paging Client (MPC/WPC)
The Manual Paging Client (MPC) is known as the "lightweight client" intended for distribution to staff within the facility. One MPC is offered with every Device Assignment Client (DAC). Using the MPC, administrative, maintenance, and clerical staff can use the facility’s wireless infrastructure for immediate and scheduled text messaging. The Web Paging Client (WPC) performs the same function as the MPC but on a bigger scale linking much larger sites or campus together around the world.

ConnexALL Active Alarm Client (AAC)
The Active Alarms Client (AAC) provides the same real-time display of active callpoints and presence events found in every DAC. The AAC is designed to monitor positions and activities within the facility, where the complete functionality of a DAC is not required. The Active Alarm Client displays the desired information on various annunciating devices, which are located throughout the facility. It also creates a unified platform for centralised or decentralised monitoring over several facilities, which can be located around the world.

ConnexALL Device Assignment Client (DAC)
The Device Assignment Client (DAC) is the "spearhead" of the ConnexALL integration platform. This client allows staff to view and modify the assignment of alarms to their respective pagers and handsets, including email, using a private or public communication network.

Depending on your facility's configuration, each DAC will display the callpoints and devices presented in that particular location. Using the Device Assignment Client, personnel can temporarily forward their calls to a co-worker during their absence. The DAC includes an integral graphical "Active Alarm" screen, which enables supervisors or other staff members to monitor all events and status activity within the organisation. It also incorporates a manual-paging interface that is used to send immediate or scheduled text messages to co-workers. Supervisors can also find historical response times for any given callpoint in the "Alarm Activity Report".

ConnexALL Serial Input Client (SIC)
The Serial Input Client (SIC) collects real-time alarm events from any business system and transmits them to the ConnexALL Notification Server, where they are processed and dispatched. Any number of distributed SIC clients, situated in physically separate systems, can interface into the ConnexALL application. In this context, business systems that are distributed over a large campus can be tied into a centrally managed ConnexALL system, using your organisation's WAN infrastructure.

The SIC can also interface with a large number of serial and IP, real-time event driven systems. Current compatibility includes industry-leading fire alarm panels, security systems, card controllers, CCTV, HVAC, communication systems and just about any event/status driven equipment. These individual pieces of equipment can be integrated individually or through their own proprietary network. The network can be either linked to the CNS through RS232 or IP connections. Bridging these systems into ConnexALL allows workers to be more efficient. Furthermore, it allows central reporting of various disparate business systems on the same platform.

Ultimately management can use this unified reporting tool to create better human, financial and material resources allocation, critical event management programs and optimise overall organisational performances.

ConnexALL Virtual Callpoints Client (VCC)
Virtual Callpoints are not associated with any physical callpoint device. Rather, they are notification sources that exist outside of the traditional business system. For example, a monitoring room can be equipped with a console that employees can use to notify when the room is occupied, there is a shortage of supplies, and so forth.

Events issued from these virtual callpoints can be received on wireless devices and are viewable on both the AAC (if the Virtual Callpoint tab is displayed) and the Virtual Callpoint Client. Consequently the Virtual Callpoint Client enables you to monitor the events that have been issued from virtual callpoints as well as issue events yourself.

ConnexALL Trigger Callpoint Client (TCC)
Just like the Virtual Alarm Client, the Trigger Callpoint Client is not associated with a physical alarm. Rather, the TCC is a pro-active means of notification that allows users to set off an event/status on wired or wireless PC stations. Once a presence, status or event is activated, the TCC will follow up with timely calls to be acknowledged by the receiver on any feature enabled wireless devices. Activities can be monitored on the TCC main screen or on the Active Alarm Screen

ConnexALL Serial Output Client (SOC)
The ConnexALL Notification Server has the ability to receive real-time events collected by the Serial Input Client, processes them and then dispatches them to the Serial Output Client (SOC), in order to trigger actions such as opening or closing relay outputs and sending automated text messaging to public address systems. Up to 1000 Serial Output Clients, situated in physically separate locations, can interface into the ConnexALL application.

The SOC can also interface with a number real-time event driven systems. Current compatibility includes video switches, dry contact outputs, HVAC, lighting, access control, overhead paging systems and many other sound and visual enunciators. These pieces of equipment can be integrated individually or through their own proprietary network. The network can be linked to the SOC through either RS232 or IP connections.

ConnexALL Wallboard Output Client and Virtual Wallboard Client (WOC and WWC)
The Wallboard Output Client (WOC) is designed to integrate any kind of electronic wallboards to the ConnexALL platform. Through the WOC, the user is able to seamlessly transfer time critical data items and statuses from any business system directly to the display panels. Similarly, the Virtual Wallboard Client transmits real-time notification to Virtual Wallboards, providing information to personnel via a window on their desktops/plasma monitors. All personnel who are connected to the LAN/WAN, including those remotely located, may have access to Virtual Wallboard.
