Auto-Zone Systems users now have a complete Windows Based Graphical Interface intended to ease the user interaction with their building HVAC system. It provides standard, easy to understand status screens for each type of Auto-Zone Systems controller installed. Prism software has provisions for custom screens which allow floor plans, equipment photos or user defined summary screens to be implemented by the user to meet their own individual needs.

All controlling setpoints, trend logs and alarm conditions are accessed in the Prism environment. Prism can be configured for a direct On-Site installation, a Remote Modem connection, or a TCP/IP Internet connection to several installations.

To use Prism you or your end user must have a computer that meets or exceeds the following specifications:

• IBM™ compatible computer
  
• Pentium 200 MHz or Faster Microprocessor
  
• 64 Megabytes RAM
  
• Windows 95 / 98 / ME / XP/2000

In addition, you must order and install the optional CommLink II Communications Interface in order to connect and communicate between your computer and the system. If remote communications to the installation are required, the Remote Link on-site modem must also be installed.
