FM Explorer

Software / General

This product has been superseded.

A front-end viewer that allows the current status of Alarm Groups to be checked either remotely or locally. The user can acknowledge that an Alarm Group has been activated showing other users that the problem is being taken care of.

Facility Manager is available as three separate products:

FM Builder - Enables the designer to create new projects and transfer them to and from the FM Server. Project creation is done using a simple step-by-step process that enables simple or complex projects to be designed easily.
FM Server - The heart of the system. It is responsible for monitoring points and sending Alarm messages to people when required.
FM Explorer - A front-end viewer that allows the current status of Alarm Groups to be checked either remotely or locally. The user can acknowledge that an Alarm Group has been activated showing other users that the problem is being taken care of.

FM Explorer cannot be installed when FM Server is present on the computer and vice versa.
