A versatile multi-thread communications Server/Client called Communication Center (CommCenter) is available with the Envitech EnvistaARM system. CommunicationCenter is designed to communicate with other Centers by Serial (RS232), Modem and IP technologies. The air monitoring data received from AQM stations can be dynamically changed, evaluated and flagged with status codes while being inserted into the data tables of the SQL or Oracle database. CommCenter can act as a data server, receiving requests for information from other CommunicationCenter programs. In this way, several “regional” CommCenter programs can collect data from each other and a “central” system’s CommunicationCenter can then poll the “regional” data.
CommunicationCenter also offers a backup servers that will poll data in case of failure in the original server.
