Sierra Monitor Corporation Sentry Webserver manual

Sentry Webserver

The Sentry Gas Risk Management System offers a cost-effective solution for a graphical based display of Sentry data using a web browser and the Sentry WebServer option.

Sierra Monitor Corporation offers a wide range of choices for data output from Sentry Gas Monitoring systems. In some cases a simple printer output of gas conditions, cali- bration confirmations and alarms is satisfactory to meet due diligence requirements. In large plant-wide monitoring situations the Modbus serial communications output is used to interface to existing or new GUI programs that might include information from other safety and process systems in the plant. But for most applications the solu- tion lies between these two choices.

To meet that need Sierra Monitor Corporation offers the Sentry WebServer. Sentry WebServer captures the imagi- nation of safety managers and instrumentation engineers by combining the power and flexibility of the Sentry Gas Risk Management System with the interoperability strength of the FieldServer WebServer from FieldServer Technolo- gies. The reliability of a proven gas detection system is combined with the modern technology of the web.

The WebServer provides a cost-effective, easy-to-use graphical display of hazardous gas conditions using the universally available Microsoft™ web-browser. It is no longer necessary to search separately for a gas detection system that might have a serial output and then search for a suitable graphical user interface package that might work with that system and then have to learn how to configure and use the package or hire a consultant to do the work. Now, a single source supplier, Sierra Monitor, can provide the entire solution with a fully integrated system.
