1 Opticom Central Management Software Efficiently control, monitor, manage, maintain and secure your Opticom Infrared System right from your desktop.

2 Maximize the benefits from your Opticom Infrared System with lower costs, greater control and higher efficiency. By giving emergency and transit vehicles a natural-appearing green light exactly when they need it, Opticom Infrared Systems can shave precious minutes off emergency response calls and keep buses running right on time. Even more important are the uncounted lives saved by Opticom Systems through faster response times and safer intersections. With Opticom Central Management Software, you can greatly simplify management of your Opticom infrared system and reduce time and cost spent visiting each intersection to retrieve logs, diagnose maintenance issues and manage security. Now you can control, monitor, manage, maintain and secure your entire network of Opticom infrared systems right from your desktop computer.

3 Opticom Central Management Software Bring the intersection to your desktop. Analyze, diagnose and manage Opticom Infrared System performance Opticom Central Management Software turns raw data logs into valuable information for managing your entire emergency vehicle preemption and transit signal priority systems. Identify and configure the phase selectors at every Opticom infrared system intersection. Manage phase selector inventory and generate inventory reports. Differentiate usage by having separate emitter codes for emergency vehicle preemption and transit signal priority. Perform detailed analysis of the log data collected from all phase selectors. Create complete inventory reports of all intersection equipment and emitters. Monitor and control usage Opticom Central Management Software allows you to find out exactly who uses your Opticom infrared systems, so you can control and manage intersection traffic more effectively. Quickly detect unusual usage patterns or attempts at unauthorized use. Automatically generate a wide range of detailed reports on all aspects of Opticom infrared system usage, such as total preemption or priority requests, top preempted intersections, top preempting vehicles, unregistered vehicle usage and more. Easily change which vehicles are allowed access to Opticom infrared system intersections. Easily identify specific vehicle descriptors, including agency, for every preemption call. Instantly respond to performance issues In the event an intersection fails to give an emergency or transit vehicle an authorized green light, Opticom Central Management Software allows you to quickly diagnose and validate the problem so corrective action can be taken immediately. Retrieve the activity logs for any Opticom infrared system intersection to quickly check the functionality of any phase selector. Confirm all attempted accesses to the intersection and find out whether or not the preemption request was received and provided to the controller, and which green lights were provided by the controller.

4 Easily secure all Opticom Infrared Systems from unauthorized use With Opticom Central Management Software, traffic engineers can quickly and easily ensure the integrity of their Opticom infrared systems and prevent unauthorized users from accessing the system. Easily implement and maintain a regional coding plan for Opticom infrared systems making mutual aid seamless and bringing the benefits of intersection safety to a wider area. Authorize access to Opticom infrared system intersections only to vehicles with securitycoded emitters. Deny access to vehicles with unauthorized or out-ofservice emitters. Reduce maintenance costs With Opticom Central Management Software, traffic departments can now complete proactive maintenance reviews of their Opticom infrared systems, without having to travel to the intersections. Quickly diagnose problems and complaints with direct remote access to the system. Improve maintenance productivity by reducing field calls to check systems that are not malfunctioning. Use reports and raw log data to help identify possible maintenance or service calls at specific intersections rather than performing system-wide maintenance inspections. Manage intersections Manage vehicles Schedule tasks Generate reports

5 A more efficient, more intelligent approach to intersection management. Opticom Central Management Software is a server-based software program that provides traffic departments with the ability to administer Opticom Infrared System intersections by mapping equipment usage and ownership into their organizational framework. Communicating with Opticom Infrared Model 700 Series Phase Selectors, the software allows you to: Manage intersections, vehicles, communications and security Maintain Opticom Phase Selector configurations Update Opticom system security (code maps) in the phase selectors Query and analyze logs retrieved from phase selectors Analyze data and generate reports from logs Schedule log collection and report generation Troubleshoot and maintain the Opticom infrared system Respond to complaints efficiently Opticom Central Management Software allows you to control and manage exactly which vehicles are permitted to use Opticom Infrared System intersections. Once you develop a local or regional coding plan, Opticom Phase Selectors will grant preemption only to authorized emitters. With Opticom Central Management Software, you can remotely identify, review and configure Opticom Phase Selectors in all intersections.

6 Opticom Central Management Software allows users to map Opticom equipment usage and ownership into their organizational framework. The key entities and components involved include: Region: A metropolitan area that represents the scope of any one Opticom Central Management Software installation. Jurisdiction: A governmental unit or organization that controls intersections or agencies or both. Intersection: A signalized intersection equipped with Opticom Phase Selectors. Communications Device: A device installed at or near the intersection that lets Opticom Central Management Software communicate to one or more Opticom phase selectors. Agency: A governmental unit or organization that controls vehicles. Vehicle: An emergency or transit vehicle equipped with Opticom Emitters.
