Our Facility Monitoring Software has been in use in pharmaceutical
installations since 1998 and has been updated to meet the rigorous
demands of 21 CFR part 11 with regard to electronic records. The
software runs under Microsoft Windows 2000/XP and is based around
a real-time database of results gathered from the Datascan and particle
counter instruments. Each module has been subject to a full qualification
procedure offering unrivalled reliability.
This modular software approach allows specific requirements
to be met by configuring a small number of highly functional modules.
This eliminates unnecessary complication, simplifies qualification,
controls costs and reduces learning curves while allowing for future
expansion.
Logged data and alarm transition data is recorded in daily
files in a secure binary format. The log files are organised hierarchically
by date and are automatically archived to a
local or site wide server.
The system is extremely easy to use; an overview screen shows
a simplified floor plan of the facility where the rooms being monitored
are green when within limits and red when in alarm.
Clicking
on the room of interest shows a trend graph of the parameters within
that room
together with their numeric values, colour coded by their alarm
state. You choose the graphs duration simply by clicking a
button or you zoom or
pan
interactively by dragging the mouse
over the graph.
The
trend graph seamlessly integrates real-time and historical data
and you can jump to any
period in history by selecting the date on the calendar control.
