WAVES Mass Notification System (MNS), part of the ALERiTY integrated platform, was designed to protect, alert and inform people of what to do before, during and after an emergency. WAVES advanced configurable control systems, which include an Integrated Base Station (IBS) and WAVES 8 software provide secure activation of audible, visual and data messages as well as status monitoring of the MNS. One-click QuickAlert buttons are enabled to launch indoor and outdoor mass notification systems from one easy-to-use Graphical User Interface (GUI). WAVES provides system redundancy with multiple points of command and control (IBS-8400 and IBS-8000C Command Center products) through its web-client GUI architecture. The system can operate as a stand-alone MNS or be integrated with other communication, fire and security systems for improved situational awareness.
