CENTRAL STATION HARDWARE
**************************************************************************
NOTE: The specific size and speed of the computers
is directly related to the size and complexity of
the installation. The following minimum
requirements are developed for a standard
workstation, badging station, server or regional
server, and an Enterprise server. A single server
system is distinguished from an Enterprise class
server in that a single server system directly
connects and controls all workstations and control
panels. An Enterprise solution would use a large
master server connected to regional or sub-servers
which directly control their own subset of
workstations and control panels.
**************************************************************************
The central station computer(s) shall be standard, off the shelf,
2.2.1
Processor Speed
The processor shall utilize a minimum architecture of a 32-bit CSIC. The
operating speed of the processor shall be a minimum of:
a.
Workstation
2.4 [__] GHZ.
b.
Badging Station
2.4 [__] GHZ.
