Elutions, a premier provider of wireless enterprise automation systems, is announced launching Wizcon Supervisor 9.3, the latest version of its process automation software, at the SPS/IPC/Drives show in Nuremberg, Germany. The Wizcon Supervisor suite, which includes the new version SCADA/HMI application Wizcon 9.3, is enhanced with many new features that improve application development productivity, extend integration with Enterprise Information Systems, and increase core platform performance and security. In particular, this release provides two major new features for secure integration into enterprise IT systems and for video security in facility management.
First, Wizcon Supervisor now integrates support of Active Directory/LDAP, which gives administrators the option to use their IT infrastructure to control login to Wizcon applications, instead of only a Wizcon-managed local login control. This enables all user profile and authorisation data to be centralised on one main database, thereby providing a more secure and error-proof user management system.
In addition , a powerful new video management module enables building and facility managers to integrate video streams into their Wizcon application. A technical and marketing cooperation with Genetec Inc, a leading IP security systems provider for homeland, public, enterprise, and process security, allows Wizcon 9.3 to interface with Genetec's Omnicast IP video surveillance system to handle video streams and alarms as well as remote configuration of the video system. The Omnicast system is fully integrated within Wizcon's UI, thus enabling easy control and visualisation of video streams for security and access control in facilities. Omnicast is useful for organisations requiring a unified management of security video, audio and data via IP networks using Wizcon Supervisor.
The combined offering provides excellence in video management, extending Wizcon's natural capabilities. It also does not impose hardware (free choice of cameras, IT infrastructure), allows smooth transfer to full digital video management (camera, archive, matrix, etc), features fast installation, enables a scalable and secure system, and eases premises management and maintenance through a single Wizcon user interface.
Other key new features of Wizcon Supervisor 9.3 include:
