Utilities

Christie TotalVIEW™ Control Room Solutions for utility control centers provide critical information in a snapshot – operators can clearly and concisely view display wall contents in the blink of an eye for split-second decision making. With real-time data, accuracy is of utmost importance. Christie provides high-performance, reliability and flexibility in their solutions and display equipment, so utility management and control is consistent and confidently dependable.

Operators must quickly organize a myriad of incoming data and visuals. Personnel must be able to resize, zoom and pan any image for greater detail. The entire system must be monitored, controlled and coordinated by a single user for rapid assessment and response to critical situations.

Key Requirements:

• High-definition, high-resolution large display array
• Seamless SCADA/EMS software integration and real-time display
• Simultaneous display and real-time control of remote and local applications
• Preset of Critical Scenarios
• Alarm detection and management
• Access levels to the wall
• Support of universal inputs – motion video, internet data streams, VGA, computers, video conferencing and satellite links
• Customization of wall display

Wall content can be displayed and interactive applications controlled over IP. Operators can check status, perform diagnostics and respond proactively with preventative procedures. Whether a system-map showing reservoirs, distribution, pumping stations, pressure monitoring stations and water meters, or a network topology, alarms, weather information and multiple workstations’ input, or flow information, level data, pressure indicators, pumps and valve settings and alarms – water, power and gas utilities all require large, legible display walls to constantly monitor a wealth of information, with no compromise of accuracy or processing power.

With complete control and management at your fingertips, reaction time is reduced, emergencies are minimized and the smooth generation and distribution of the utility is effortlessly executed.

WHAT IS A CHRISTIE TotalVIEW™ CR PRODUCT SOLUTION?
The complex nature of today’s control room applications offers a variety of display and image challenges.  Christie’s TotalVIEW™ CR Product solutions can produce images at any size or resolution to meet any requirements… from smaller team-scale systems to large-scale configurations.

With global installations numbering in the thousands and growing, purpose-built control room solutions from Christie are available as a complete solution package ready for integration, or can be utilized individually within other systems. Christie TotalVIEW™ CR Product Solutions include;

1. EXTERNAL INPUTS
   Most control room display systems require the ability to display content coming from a variety of sources such as video cameras, computers, networks, etc., often displaying multiple inputs simultaneously. Christie projection and control systems provide extensive input capabilities to suit the demanding requirements of any control room application.
   
   
2. CONTROL SYSTEM
   Display wall control systems are typically used to combine the displays of several discreet display devices or monitors to create one single high resolution display wall that allows imaging from multiple sources to be simultaneously and flexibility displayed anywhere on the display wall. Christie's TVC series control systems products provide this flexibly. Specialized internal software and hardware enable the tiled videowall displays to respond as one single ultra-high resolution desktop. Within the desktop, software applications, external videos, external computer outputs and client monitors may be displayed anywhere, any size - controlled at the wall and/or via networked clients.
   
   
3. DISPLAY CUBES, ENCLOSURES & SCREENS
   Christie's specialized rear projection display equipment allow for "seamless" imaging of several projection devices to create one continuous display wall. Specialized designs enable maximum physical and performance benefits required for quality information display. Also, Christie provides both custom and "off the shelf" designs to enable maximum flexibility in ensuring that the display wall solution best matches the end-user requirement and need.
   
   
4. PROJECTION ENGINES
   Christie offers a wide selection of "purpose-built" rear projection display products designed specifically for 24/7 control room applications. These product feature ultra-high contrast ratios, brightness uniformity control, color matching, build-in edge-blending for seamless tilling and a built-in GPIO port for automated control between the projection engine and hardware devices. Projection systems are available to support a wide range of resolutions and display sizes and all utilize the latest proven technologies.
   
   
5. CONTENT MANAGEMENT
   Whether a videowall has only a few projection displays or a huge array of displays, the Christie TVC Series Controller provides extreme capability to display all the information you need to see. High resolution graphics and video from multiple sources can be displayed at any size, anywhere with Christie MASTERSuite 4.1 wall management software.
