Original Press Release:
New Sentry WebServer
March 6, 2003 -- Sierra Monitor Corporation proudly announces the new Sentry WebServer. Sentry WebServer captures the imagination of safety managers and instrumentation engineers by combining the power and flexibility of the Sentry Gas Risk Management System with the interoperability strength of the FieldServer WebServer from FieldServer Technologies. The reliability of a proven gas detection system is combined with the modern technology of the web.
The WebServer provides a cost-effective, easy-to-use graphical display of hazardous gas conditions using the universally available Microsoft(TM) web-browser. It is no longer necessary to search separately for a gas detection system that might have a serial output and then search for a suitable graphical user interface package that might work with that system and then have to learn how to configure and use the package or hire a consultant to do the work. Now, a single source supplier, Sierra Monitor, can provide the entire solution with a fully integrated system.
o Safety data presented visually on any PC of your choice located anywhere in the plant or even remotely
o Complete interaction with the hazardous gas detection system through a familiar web browser and no requirement to learn a new GUI program
o Ability to web-browse to system data from your LAN, WAN or over the Internet
o Easy to configure graphical color changes are displayed as events
o All your current alarms dynamically displayed and updated on a single web page
o An event log provides easy access to history for due diligence
o Cost-effective system includes the ActiveX tools to configure using FrontPage from Microsoft
o The full system available from a single supplier with an outstanding reputation for before and after sales technical support
The WebServer package includes a Sentry display pre-configured for a web browser enabling the user to operate the Sentry system remotely from any PC connected to the Ethernet! Imagine having the ability to manage plant-wide gas risk management system from anywhere in the plant! Imagine having password protected access to your primary gas safety monitoring system from the control room, the safety manager's office, or remotely!
