Full description

The COBS Lynx app makes it possible to distribute messages and alarms over WiFi when connected to on-premises systems. The COBS Lynx app connects to on-premises systems such as Nurse Call Systems, Situation Awareness Systems (SAS), Physical Security Information Management (PSIM), Fire, Security and Access Control Systems, and more. The COBS Lynx app provides a user-friendly interface and tool for the professional first-line workers and enables faster response times plus improved safety and security to corporate assets and resources. The COBS Lynx app connects mobile users to the COBS Messaging System situated on the customer premises. Through a defined set of rules, the event handler transmits notifications quickly and reliably to the required people and teams, with technical and user acknowledgments that are then fed back to the initiators. Through the confirmation function, the COBS backend system receives qualified feedback on the availability and response times of your teams and can initiate an automatic escalation if necessary. Features: ● Icon based and color-coded alert messages and alert tones ● Positive and negative acknowledgments (ACK/NACK) ● Personal protection and assault alarm NOTE: To utilize the COBS Lynx app, your facility must have purchased and installed the COBS Messaging System with user licenses, configuration and connectivity for your specific facility.
