3-4 Interoperability Now
3.3 Operation Via WAIS Controller
The purpose of the WAIS Controller is to present, in a clear and simple format, the enormous
amount of information inherent in a Wide Area Interoperability System and provide the
program operator the means to control the system. Wide Area Interoperability (WAIS)
Systems tie multiple ACU-1000 systems, as well as other communication assets, together over
an IP-based network. The WAIS Controller has different views that provide the operator a
close-up look at an individual ACU-1000 system or a broad overview of the entire wide area
system.
