CIAS Multisphera
Product

From the sensor to the control room, in a single system.

Multisphera collects the events of CIAS devices, shows them on synoptic and map, stores them and passes them to the systems you already use. It runs on the site network, not in the cloud.

Features

What it does, module by module

Synoptic

Real-time status of channels, terminal servers and sensors, updated over an encrypted WebSocket.

LiveMap

Sensors on the site map: the alarm appears where it was triggered, with automatic zoom on the event.

Event handling

Acknowledgement with configurable reasons; schedulable operating states for sensors.

Tuner

Calibration of CIAS sensors from the browser, also from smartphones and tablets in the field.

Event log

A single log: 24 months online, then a verified local archive you can consult. CSV export.

Users and permissions

Administrator, Operator and Installer roles; permissions per module, menu and action, denied by default.

Outputs to third parties

CIAS02, CIAS03 and CIAS04 to VMS, PSIM and supervisory systems. CIAS04 is CIAS03 over TLS 1.3 with mutual authentication.

Import from IB-System IP

The existing configuration (.IBConf) becomes channels and sensors ready for review.

Interactive guide

The «?» button guides you step by step on the real interface: it is the product’s built-in documentation.

Compatibility

Every CIAS device

Multisphera supervises every CIAS device, connected through the CIAS IP-Doorway and IP-Doorway2 terminal servers. With the Tuner, sensors are calibrated from the browser, also from smartphones and tablets.
