1.07 CONTROL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

A. Control stations provide the human interface device at locations as shown on the drawings for security alarm monitoring and control of security devices including doors, cameras, and intercoms.

B. The control stations are comprised of a Pentium based PC and LCD monitor. The control icons serve as a means of interface to the programmable logic controller (PLC). The PLC then performs logic functions (such as timing and interlocking) and activates the appropriate field devices (such as locks or video Switcher control) based on the graphic control panel switch command.

C. Monitoring functions: The PLC receives signals from field devices and routes the information to the control stations where icons and/or audible tones annunciate the condition of the controlled field devices.

D. The terminal consists of a 27” high-resolution LCD color video monitor Control stations shall be freestanding or rack mounted in casework as indicated on the drawings. Freestanding monitors shall have adjustable swivel bases secured to the casework.

E. Log-In: Access to the control system shall be password protected and all operators shall log into the system. On screen keypads shall utilize a “scramble” function so that the digits do not appear in the same location each time an operator logs into the system. All log-in/log-out activities shall be recorded on the system data logger. Terminals shall be limited to three consecutive invalid log-in attempts. After three failed attempts, the terminal shall be disabled and an alarm shall be generated at Central Control. Control of the screen must be returned from Central Control.

F. Mouse: Each control screen station shall also be equipped with a mouse to operate the terminal using an on-screen indicator. Selecting a program segment or option requires moving the display cursor to the appropriate screen location with the mouse and depressing left mouse button.

G. Headsets: Each console shall be equipped with a headset jack and a matching headset to provide the panel speaker and microphone functions during periods of high ambient noise. A footswitch shall provide an optional means for executing a “push for talk” function.

H. Control Transfer: Two methods of control/transfer shall be provided:

1. Substation Transfer. Activating the “Log Off” icon on the control station monitors shall automatically transfer all control and indicating functions to the designated location. When logged off, the transferred terminal shall not be capable of performing control functions.

Return to normal operation shall be accomplished by logging onto the system using the video keypad.

2. Control “Takeover”: Activating the “Takeover” icon on the monitor shall automatically transfer all control and indicating functions to the designated location. When logged off, the transferred terminal shall not be capable of performing control functions. Return to normal operation shall be accomplished by logging onto the system using the on-screen keypad.

I. Takeover Hierarchy:

1. Tower A

2. Central Control

3. Unit 1 Control

4. ID Control

J. UPS Alarms: UPS Alarms shall send a text message to Central Control and be logged on the data logger.

K. Failure of any computer or network PC shall not affect the operation of any other station. Control stations shall communicate directly with the PLC’s for control functions via the security Ethernet LAN. PLC’s shall be located in equipment rooms as shown on the drawings.

L. Each control station shall contain a licensed copy of the Graphical User Interface Software (GUI).

The use of server based systems shall be strictly prohibited. All copies of licenses shall be turned over to the owner at the time of substantial completion of the project and become the sole property of the owner.

M. The system shall utilize voice instructions for alerting the operator to alarm conditions and critical control sequences such as interlock, interlock override, emergency release, and other functions as directed by the Owner/User. There shall also be a voice annunciation ON/OFF switch to enable and disable the voice instructions.

1.08 CONTROL SYSTEM – SCREEN CONTROLS/MONITORING FUNCTIONS – GENERAL:

A. General: Control screens shall be comprised of icons and text fields. Icons shall designate the sensitive area for control and display, which provides a pictorial representation of a switch function.

1. All icon activations shall be annunciated with an audible tone, a color change of the icon, and a change of icon configuration.

2. Each screen shall annunciate off-screen inputs, such as intercom calls and alarm events. The control terminal operator shall be notified of these events regardless of the screen that is currently displayed on the terminal.
