Open Platform for Integration
Three primary interfaces:• XML (Extensible Markup Language) Interface
– cardholders– data e.g. HR & Resource booking systems
• Integration enables cardholder data to be managed in one system with changes reflected automatically in Cardax FT
• By using our standard interfaces, integration has been achieved with systems from multiple vendors such as PeopleSoft, SAP® and Oracle®
Three primary interfaces:• OPC (OLE for Process Control) for Alarms & Events
(Object Linking & Embedding) – OPC Events & Alarms– OPC Data interface for viewing information
from different systems in the environment e.g. from building management systems, DVR systems, etc.
