Appendix F – Using RMS with Inovonics and Responder 5000 App
Following is an overview of how to implement Inovonics sensor monitoring with the RMS and the
Responder 5000 app. The basic description of how this works is as follows:
1.
Inovonics alerts persist on the Responder 5000 app until either the alert is reset at the Inovonics
device or the alert is Acknowledged by the app user
2.
When Event Processing is enabled in the RMS, you can configure and use an alert escalation
management feature
RMS is shipped with the Event Processing System disabled, but the admin user can enable it through the
RMS web config interface. The Inovonics sensor handling works with either case, but works differently
in each case. Basically, when Event Processing is enabled, you can configure and use an alert escalation
management system.
Inovonics Interface Basic Configuration
•
Create Data Input using Inovonics protocol
•
Create Data Output using Smartphone protocol
•
Create Data Connection between Inovonics data input and Smartphone data output
•
Inovonics sensors, Inovonics central receiver and Inovonics repeaters auto-register with RMS
•
Name the Inovonics repeaters in the Facility/Wireless Receivers page
•
Name the Inovonics sensors in the Alert Sources/Inovonics Sensors page, using either the Name
field or the Reference field
•
Create any Rules and Filters records that need to cause color and priority assignment to change,
based on key string matching against the Inovonics sensor Reference field, if non-blank. If the
Reference field is blank, the key string matching will be made against the Inovonics sensor Name
field.
Inovonics User Experience with Event Processing Disabled
When an Inovonics sensor alert is initiated, all logged-in Responder 5000 app users will receive those
alerts. The alert will appear on the app as a non-answerable notice, with the Name/Reference value of
the Inovonics sensor in the Message field and the Name value of the nearest receiver appears in the
Location field
That alert persists on the Responder 5000 app until either Acknowledged by the app user or until the
Inovonics sensor is physically reset. Once an alert is acknowledged, it will not reappear on the
Responder 5000 app until the Inovonics sensor is physically reset and a new alert is initiated at the
sensor.
There is no escalation to any other app users or supervision when Event Processing is disabled in the
RMS
