a full 24-line by 40 character screen capable of show-
ing eight simultaneous events without the need from
scrolling. Up to three switch/LED strips may be
added, with control operations and multi-colored LED
behavior controlled by software. Customizable inserts
provide plenty of room for meaningful labels, while
large tactile control buttons instill confidence and
promote quick response when time is of the essence.
The main display mounts to the CPU. Control/display
modules attach to a convenient mounting frame.

FireWorks Graphical Annunciation Interface
The FireWorks Graphical Annunciation Interface is a software platform that provides end us-
ers with clear, concise, and coordinated site incident information. FireWorks also supports
optional text-based web clients to provide remote status updates. Five congurable graphical
viewports oer simultaneous insight into dierent aspects of an incident, while the underlying
software dynamically manages content in each viewport based on real-time events and user
interaction. Facility maps, embedded HTML viewer, and live event ow from vital equipment
all come together instantly within view of an operator facing events that require solid informa-
tion and split-second timing.

LED-based Graphic Annunciation
The GCI series of graphic annunicator drivers allow the VM control panel to display events
on an LED-based graphic annunciator. The GCI annunciator card supports 32 LEDs on the
graphic panel display. It includes status LEDs and an internal buzzer. The graphic card is
supplied with snap track mounting. It is attached to a plastic mounting rail that requires two
EIA panels. The annunciator communicates with the control panel on the RS 485 data riser,
which can be congured for Class A or Class B communication. Always ensure that National
and Local approvals and requirements are met when selecting a graphic panel supplier.
