ASE5300-AI
APOGEE interface license
The APOGEE interface allows you to monitor alarms raised in the SiPass
integrated system directly from your APOGEE Insight Workstation‚ and
also acknowledge these alarms from that same workstation without
switching systems. This same concept also extends to the monitoring
of point states. As a point state in the SiPass integrated system changes‚
it is communicated to the APOGEE system and can be viewed by the
APOGEE operator. This leads to reduced training costs and provides an
increase in productivity through assimilated learning of a single envi-
ronment. It also reduces the chance of error‚ as the operator only needs
to concentrate on one interface to effectively manage two complex sys-
tems. When a cardholder badges an access card at a reader configured
for access control‚ the same action can also be linked to the APOGEE
system. This allows a cardholder to automatically activate a “Notifica-
tion Zone”. A notification zone allows building comfort system compo-
nents to be turned on that relate directly to the cardholder. For exam-
ple‚ lighting all the areas that lead to the cardholder’s workspace and
turning on the air conditioning in the cardholder’s section of the office.
Combine this with the powerful OPC A&E client option available in
SiPass integrated and OPC Server in the APOGEE system and you can
now achieve bi-directional flow of data. This allows both systems to
communicate with each other and operators of either system to moni-
tor alarms regardless of the workstation they are using.

ASE5300-AP
Basic HR application programming interface (API) license
The Basic HR API enables SiPass integrated to communicate with third-
party business applications and exchange common information‚ which
significantly reduces the need to enter identical data into multiple sys-
tems.
Note: To facilitate seamless communication between the Basic HR API
and SiPass integrated‚ a small amount of software development is
required for the third-party application. With the aid of the SiPass inte-
grated HR API Development Guide‚ this task is relatively simple for a
software engineer.
