by AF 1220 c3 — December 23, 2009—Notifier by Honeywell has expanded its mass notification capabilities to include delivery of multi-media alerts to personal computers, electronic signage, telephones and wireless devices. Communication management tools provided by REACT Systems can now integrate with Notifier’s suite of mass notification systems to deliver critical information to targeted audiences.

The React Critical Response Notification System works in conjunction with Notifier’s suite of indoor/outdoor voice systems, amber strobes and LED signage to create a comprehensive emergency communication delivery system. Audio, SMS (text messaging), pictures and video alerts can be directed to targeted audiences, including first responders, personnel or the general public.

Instant pop-up windows containing emergency event information and response procedures can appear on PCs, regardless of the programs in-use. Alternate evacuation route diagrams can be shown on public video monitors simultaneously in different locales throughout a building. Verbal alerts can be sent to telephones while SMS and e-mail messages are delivered to wireless devices.

Alerts can be triggered manually or triggered automatically via integration with Notifier fire alarm and mass notification systems. The React Console allows authorized users to initiate and update alerts, manage users, track the status of events, update media content (i.e. maps, graphics, photographs) and manage the system configuration. To quickly launch general or predetermined notifications, “Single Button Alert” panic buttons can be configured to initiate alerts to specific audiences quickly with the click of the mouse or press of a button on the keyboard.
