Situation ManagementBy intelligent filtering and combining alarms and events, the operator is on top of each situation that arises in the facility. Actions due to various events, can both be executed automatically and manually by opera-tor interaction. Since the operator has instant access to all relevant information, decisions can be made swiftly.

EfficiencyWideQuick PSIM collects information from several diffe-rent sources and presents it in one common user inter-face. This not only preserves the number of necessary monitors, but also makes the work much easier for the operators having only one common user interface re-gardless of the number of underlying security systems.

WideQuick PSIM increases the efficiency of the operator´s work and also reduces the risk of operator errors.

Data CollectionWideQuick PSIM connects to a large number of dif-ferent security systems and enables bi-directional data communication.

FilteringCorrelating the collected data, WideQuick PSIM can use logic to determine which information is important and relevant.

PresentationOne of the great benefits of a PSIM solution is to com-pile and present relevant information to the operator. This is done in one common user interface which gives an excellent overview of the situation.

The information can be presented in the control room as well as on a local computer or through a web browser.

AuthorisationThe security system in WideQuick PSIM is based on pri-vileges to ensure that selected parts of the system can be used by authorised personnel only.

ProceduresIn case of serious events, it is paramount that a certain procedure is followed to handle the situation correctly. Check lists of mandatory actions can be presented for the operator, based on what kind of events that occur.

ActionsThere is a wide range of interaction objects that can be used in WideQuick PSIM as the operator interacts with the system.

Areas of Applications for PSIM

AirportsWideQuick PSIM is installed at several airports around the world, for example Dallas, Heathrow, Gatwick and Geneva. At Dallas airport Wide-Quick PSIM communicates with a docking system from Safegate. They communicate via the standardised OPC interface and present real-time information at the 160 gates.

ArenasThere is a considerable need for surveillance of the stands at matches, concerts and other events. WideQuick PSIM and Ethiris VMS provide an efficient way of controlling multiple PTZ cameras with a single ope-rator click. Predefined scenarios such as stand scan, crowd entrance and home position further increase operator efficiency.

Other ApplicationsWideQuick PSIM is commonly used for shopping centres. Other examples are industries, infrastructure, building automation and construction projects.

You can read more about these applications in the brochure Kentima´s Success Stories.

City SurveillanceWideQuick PSIM is a superior security system and due to its built-in scalability it is well suited for large projects such as city surveillance. A common scenario in city surveillance is to combine WideQuick PSIM and Ethiris VMS to create a truly intelligent system that can take full advantage of the seamless integration between the two software.

PrisonsWideQuick PSIM is used as a superior security system for prisons. A large number of disparate security systems such as access control, video surveillance and fire alarm are connected to WideQuick PSIM where all the information is collected and presented to the operator in one common user interface.

WideQuick PSIM Features

PSIM software contains many useful features. In WideQuick PSIM most features are ready-to-use, but the flexibility and the powerful tools make it extremely easy to create high-level functio-nality by combining various objects and functions.

Statistics and TrendsIn WideQuick PSIM any variable can be logged cyclically or when a change in value occurs. There are predefined objects for displaying both statistic and trend graphs of all desired variables. Statistic and trend graphs provide an excellent tool for ma-king sound decisions. By combining these with alarm logs and alarm frequency lists, it facilitates investiga-tions and may very well constitute the difference of failure and success in finding the culprits in an alarm situation.

Project TemplatesA number of example projects are included in the installation of WideQuick PSIM. These projects contain great examples of what can be achieved and how to do it. A well-thought-through structure is applied to the examples and they can easily be reused and adjusted as desired, using the powerful graphical features.

Alarms and EventsThe alarm and event module in WideQuick PSIM is very sophisticated and was origi-nally developed for the SCADA market.

Presentation LayersDue to the smart dynamic features of Wide-Quick PSIM, any object can be displayed/hid-den based on its condition. This feature can be used to provide presentation layers that can be activated both automatically and manually.

Standard Operating ProceduresIn a stressful situation, it is of great importance that the operator gets as much support from the system as possible. Presenting a list of checkboxes with mandatory actions for the operator to perform upon an alarm is a clear and safe way to make sure that standard procedu-res are maintained.

Other Great Features...

The built-in JavaScript engine included in Kentima´s software WideQuick PSIM and Ethiris VMS, is an exceptional tool for customization of a system. There are virtually no limits for what the system integrator can achieve using script. A built-in variable browser, intellisense and drag & drop make scripting easier than ever before. Powerful ready-to-use objects such as the ActiveX container and the HTML object, allow seamless integration with third-party tools and websites.

Script and Data StoreWideQuick PSIM provides the integrator with a scripting language for easily enhancing more advanced functiona-lity in PSIM systems. The scripting language is also availa-ble for performing mathematical and logical calculations in all forms of dynamics. The scripts can be executed in various situations in WideQuick PSIM, such as the result of an event or continously in dynamics or schedules.

ActiveX ObjectsAn ActiveX container is included in WideQuick PSIM, which means that you

can embed any ActiveX component in your presen-tation. COM components can also be used, and are available for usage in the scripting engine.

Language SupportWideQuick Designer includes an advan-ced tool for extracting text in projects

and gathering them in translation files. In addition, there is an integrated feature for creating imme-diate translations to the desired language.

HTML ObjectsWideQuick PSIM has an HTML browser with support for HTML documents and

communications with web servers. It also includes support for other web-related technologies, for example running JavaScript from websites.

HTML

Unit ConversionWideQuick PSIM includes functionality that enables switching between unit sys-

tems at any time. A project can initially be built up with for example the SI and US units, and later ea-sily be supplemented with additional unit systems.

Security and PrivilegesTo ensure that selected parts of the sys-tem can be used by authorized person-

nel only, several security functions are integrated. The security system is based on privileges and thus can be structured freely.

DatabasesWideQuick PSIM can communicate with ODBC data sources. This entails access

to nearly all database software on the market such as SQL Server and Oracle. The database connec-tions can also be used when historical data is log-ged to the databases.

PreviewA WideQuick PSIM project does not need to be com-piled, instead the finished code is immediately created when making the objects. This means that you can preview at any time to see what the project will look like and work in WideQuick Runtime. If external units or systems are connected, communications will also be operable.

Web ClientWideQuick Web Client is a web server module that con-nects to WideQuick Runtime and enables a facility to be monitored and controlled via standard web browsers on both computers and mobile units. It can be run on Micro-soft Internet Information Server (IIS) on Windows or on a web server with support for Fast CGI on GNU/Debian Linux, such as Apache, or be run on its own. WideQuick Web Client does not require installation of any plug-in modules on the computer. In other words, no ActiveX component, Adobe Flash Player, Oracle Java or Microsoft Silverlight plug-ins are necessary on the computer, only a modern web browser.

Fast and EfficientDeveloping advanced security systems is made extre-mely easy when using WideQuick PSIM. Many system integrators attest to WideQuick being one of the fastest developing tools in the business. Innovative tools such as OPC browser, graphical aligning, object library and undo/redo list have a dramatically positive impact on the development time.

Object LibraryIn WideQuick PSIM there are predefined object libraries for all the typical security systems such as fire alarm, in-truder alarm, access control and building automation. In addition, it is possible to create custom objects and put them in the object library for reuse in both the current project as well as other projects.

From the object library, you can drag & drop the desired number of instances of the object to one or more workviews in the project. The dynamics of the new instances operate independently. If the symbol is chan-ged in the object library, it is promoted to all instances in the project. The object library is another reason for the success of WideQuick PSIM and for being seen as one of the fastest and most efficient tools in the industry.

Vector GraphicsWideQuick PSIM has a well-thought-through structure for creating vector-based graphics. The basic graphical objects can quickly be modified with color, multiple gra-dients, rotation, frame and size to create a modern and intuitive user interface.

Undo/RedoThe powerful undo/redo list keeps track of every change that is made in the on-going project. It´s easy to go back and forth in the list, effectively undoing/redoing the previous work. This is a great time saver and gives oppor-tunities to try new ideas without being afraid to ruin the project.

Customized User InterfaceThe provided example projects make up a very good starting point. Sometimes these projects are even used as they are in real systems. Even though, many times the system integrator wants to change some details in the user interface.

One of the most appreciated features of WideQuick PSIM are the powerful tools for graphical design. With a minimum of training most users can achieve amazing results using the WideQuick Designer. For example, changing the color of every fire alarm detector in a project is done in an instant, simply change the color for the object in the object library. The change is promoted to every instance of that object in the project.
