Flexible and scalable platform
supports a variety of commu-
nication protocols and IT
standards
Desigo CC makes notifying easy by utiliz-
ing the power of the remote notification
feature. Users can select a variety of noti-
fications such as e-mail, pager or text
message to notify up to 50 recipients.
Wherever you are, you can rest assured
your building is safe.
Clear visualization for a quick overview
A powerful vector graphic engine that
supports AutoCAD drawings allows users
to navigate through the individual zones
of your facility. The zones can be displayed
in either a hierarchical tree view or a
graphical view. This means that a build-
ing, floor, room or individual object can
be quickly located and displayed on the
screen – and viewed in detail thanks to
the zoom function. In case of an alarm,
the operator can quickly and precisely
locate where it was triggered. Simple
icons also illustrate the current state of
various objects, and detailed information
is available with a single mouse click.
Keeping track of all events and actions
The LogViewer allows users to view all
historical system and user events and
activities. The Detailed Log complements
this with object-focused historical data.
Long-term information on the system’s
status can be used for statistical analy-
ses and report generation.
Open architecture
Desigo CC is an open platform that was
developed to keep pace with changing
technology. A variety of protocols and IT
standards are supported, more specifically
OPC, BACnet, Modbus and Web Services.
This allows, for example, the integration
of third-party fire protection systems.
