Interfacing with the system is the UniNet 2000, an advanced network that allows users to monitor and control security, fire, card access, CCTV, and other facility information over a proprietary LonWorks network. UniNet 2000 allows a mixture of different technologies and manufacturers to operate on the same network. A PC workstation provides the operator interface to the UniNet system, featuring plug-in applications and allowing continued expansion of workstation and network functions. The workstation features customized screens that allow a wide variety of configuration options for any situation. The UniNet 2000 workstation also has the ability to monitor multiple local-device networks and remote sites. Roger Harmon, director of security at the Gilcrease Museum, was impressed with the speed of installation, as well as the system’s performance. “The installation was completed in just nine months,” said Harmon, who is responsible for the protection of Gilcrease’s entire collection. “This was a relatively fast process considering the scope of the system and myriad city codes requiring compliance. “The system is working even better than we expected, and has already paid for itself many times over,” Harmon said. “In fact, it has already detected one problem in an overheating transformer that could have been disastrous.” Information provided by Notifier, Northford, Conn.
