Designed to protect, alert and inform people of what to do before, during and after an emergency, the WAVES® Integrated Base
Station (IBS) is a sophisticated Central Control System with an
easy-to-use, GIS-based Graphical User Interface (GUI). It can
operate as a stand-alone system or be integrated with other
life-safety and security systems such as fire alarm, access
control and intrusion detection systems for improved situational
awareness.
Through a secure digital wireless communications network, WAVES MNS delivers announcements originating from the IBS via digital Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) @ 2.4
GHz. The IBS issues commands, provides data messages, and
monitors the status of WAVES transceivers (TRX-401).
The IBS can be field-programmed by a system administrator to execute pre-scripted, automated responses to user input, commands from C2
systems or WAVES network events. Such events include playing of pre-recorded audible messages, activation of text messages and strobes as well as sending messages to other connected systems.
From Wide-area and In-building MNS activation to distribution of text messages, the IBS ensures that you get the right message
to the right person at the right time.
