The SS2000+ Series C web enabled controller is Federal Signal’s most advanced stand-alone control unit. The SS2000+ typically interfaces to an analog or digital radio system to provide radio activation of sirens across a county, municipal, campus or industrial facility. The SS2000+ has 24 programmable activation button “hotkeys” secured with a keylock switch and 20 contact closure inputs for interfacing with remote control systems. The hotkeys can provide specific types of warnings or test activations to notify residents, employees or students. The 24 Hotkeys are now accessible from a variety of interfaces using a new web interface. The new web interface can provide improved redundancy allowing multiple SS2000+ units to be used as on-line back-ups. Advanced networking features enable the SS2000+ to be connected to Federal Signal’s Commander® control and status monitoring software. In addition, the SS2000+ can now connect directly to Federal Signal’s CommanderOne® cloud service for secure web access to hotkeys, messaging and automated activation from NOAA EAS events. 

 

The SS2000+ can be used to as an encoder for one-way siren control. Previously using a SS2000+ allowed activation only from the front panel hotkeys, the physical interfaces or from a connected PC. The SS2000+ now provides siren activation from CommanderOne NOAA® EAS events/polygons, from a mobile app or from a web browser over the Internet.

 

Typical siren control systems rely on dedicated PC’s or servers for activation. PC’s can be difficult to maintain with updates and security concerns. Now you can have many of the features provided from a PC without the need to have a PC dedicated to activating your siren system. In addition, PC’s can be a single point of failure within your siren control system. The SS2000+ can now interface to our CommanderOne control system and eliminate the need for a dedicated PC for siren control.

 

Dispatch consoles can now access the SS2000+ from a new built-in web server that allows the SS2000+ to be controlled and configured over a LAN using standard web browsers. This interface can provide users within a secure company network to access the SS2000+ Hotkeys from standard web browsers (Chrome, Edge or Firefox) on the company's local area network.

The SS2000+ has a MODBUS interface to easily interface with Industrial Control Systems. MODBUS TCP is used to provide activations into an SS2000+ for specific warning announcements across an industrial plant. Users can activate the system using the SS2000+ or industrial control systems can activate the hotkeys.
