Industrial Control Software, the producer of IMAC alarm monitoring and analysis software solutions, has now sold more than 1000 systems worldwide.

ICS released the first version of IMAC in 1993 as a simple alarm printer replacement package, but through a strategic development programme have evolved the product into what now is an integrated alarm management solution.

The IMAC portfolio of products now includes, IMAC Sentinel Lite (formerly IMAC Lite).

This is a simple, cost effective software package for organisations wishing to replace alarm printers with a single PC, eliminating long term cost and reliability issues associated with printers and their consumables.

IMAC Sentinel Lite can capture data from serial inputs or even straight from a network replacing two printers, with the ability to back up information to optical disk.

IMAC Sentinel Lite uses cyclic database technology ensuring that the latest data is always available to the user.

IMAC Sentinel (formerly IMAC V2) is an alarm monitoring package for organisations that need to monitor and report safety critical events.

Its unique design allows the package to be tailored to site specific requirements.

IMAC Sentinel can accept up to 16 separate inputs and can be enhanced using IMAC Xpert enabling it to become a powerful analysis tool which can be used to rationalise alarms ensuring optimum plant efficiency.

IMAC Xpert is a powerful alarm analysis tool which interfaces with IMAC Sentinel enabling the user to become more analytical with the alarms received.

This type of event reporting analysis enables the user to rationalise alarms thus optimising plant operation by reducing downtime and increasing efficiency.

IMAC Xpert's flexible, multifaceted design means that effective alarm management can now be achieved at minimal cost with maximum functionality.

Using IMAC's established track record and the industry experience its team of engineers have gained through the close relationships developed with many of its clients, ICS' vision for the future is that of an alarm management solution provider offering a balance between application focussed software products and skilled services in alarm rationalisation, training and comprehensive support.
