“Facility Commander Wnx provides complete end-to-end security management,” said Dan Smytka, President, GE Security’s Engineered Systems. “Exploiting a single interface for all operations, customers can leverage its expandable architecture and feature-rich capabilities for deploying security throughout the organization.”

System administration, monitoring and video surveillance can be performed from any workstation on the network. Operators can manage security from a single application, providing immediate access to information, reducing reaction time through event-driven system automation, and increasing response effectiveness. Built on standard Microsoft technology, Facility Commander Wnx harnesses the power and availability of the Windows operating environment, and provides a flexible solution that is easy to deploy and support.

GE’s reputation for best-in-class Graphical User Interface (GUI) continues with this release of Facility Commander Wnx. Operators can easily monitor and control a facility’s security system with point-and-click mouse navigation. The multi-tasking capabilities of the platform provide independent window management of all primary monitoring applications. A single operator can simultaneously view more real time data, assess the relevance of an event and execute appropriate responses with intuitive navigation.

The open database and Application Program Interface (API) provides flexibility to integrate with existing infrastructure and to adapt to customer specific applications and
business systems.
