TXG Tyco Expert Graphics is based on a graphical alarm monitoring system that has been installed on hundreds of large fire detection and alarm monitoring systems around the world.
It provides annunciation, status display, and control for MX networks incorporating latest MX Technology™ fire detection. It also supports the Minerva® fire detection systems thus ensuring that future updates from Minerva® to MX technology™ can be accommodated.
TXG is a Microsoft Windows® based graphical interface with a high resolution, colour display. Responsive on-screen buttons with configurable icons provide control switches specific to the operation being performed. Utilizing a combination of symbols, floor plans, pictures, text, voice messages and video input, TXG displays the precise location and gives instructions on what emergency action should be taken. A detailed map of the area affected can be printed automatically for use by personnel responding to an emergency. Prompt response to a fire emergency, with the correct action, provides the opportunity to reduce financial loss and greatly improve safety.
Much of the work involved in configuring TXG has been simplified through the automatic import of panel configurations and the ability to use a wide range of input data file types including GIF, JPG, bitmap, AutoCAD®, Vector and WAV files.
System maintenance can be carried out via the high level user interface with the ability to edit the position and attributes of point icons as well as make changes to drawing layouts. In addition to simplifying maintenance, being a true client server application means that any number of on-site or off-site workstations can interrogate the database with pre-defined security levels to facilitate any required combination of access and control.
