WSE • 3/21/97 16720 — 6 SE 6000 Security Management System
D. Operator Interface/Operations:
1. Sophisticated Operator Interface: The required system shall provide a sophisticated, easy to
operate interface for security operators. The following aspects of the system shall contribute to
the effectiveness of the operator interface:
a. Graphical user interface:
1) A graphical user interface, based on the X-Windows system, which permits a user to view
and operate multiple screens in several areas of the system simultaneously.
2) The operator shall have the capability to customize the individual screen sizes and
locations, in relationship one to the other, on the display.
b. Menu driven operation:
1) Menu driven screen selection shall allow even an infrequent operator to move through
and manage the functions of the system easily and with a minimum of training.
2) There shall be no need to memorize complicated commands or procedures.
c. Function keys:
1) Function key control of actions must provide the ability to control the system with simple
keystrokes.
d. Windowing:
1) The system shall provide windowing (a ZOOM feature) for additional information and/or
explanation.
2) The ZOOM capability shall allow the operator to look up information in supporting files,
and to access other screens without leaving the screen they are presently using. For
example, while entering data for a cardholder, the operator may require auxiliary
information regarding access codes. The operator may ZOOM to the access code screen,
key on the correct information and dynamically add that data to the Keyholder Entry
screen.
3) All this shall be accomplished without having to exit one screen, move through the
menus, enter another screen to retrieve the necessary information, then move back
through the menus in order to make the entry in the original location.
4) This feature shall exist throughout the system, wherever categorical descriptions are kept
in lists.
2. Multi-Terminal and Multi-Tasking:
a. General:
1) Multi-Terminal operation for interaction by additional operators shall be available at
local or remote sites.
2) Independent operations may be performed at different operator terminals with minimal
degradation of performance.
b. Terminals supported:
1) The system shall be able to support up to: [4 terminals (SE 60XX)] [4 terminals (SE 6100)]
[8 terminals (SE 6200)] [12 terminals (SE 6300)] in any combination of monochrome and
SVGA color PC terminals.
2) Maximum additional terminal configurations require additional memory.
c. Connection:
1) Additional terminals shall either be directly connected to Host system via a serial link or
network connection or shall available on a dial-up line.
2) In any of the available configurations, additional terminals shall have the same
capabilities as the main console.
3) Operations at any terminal shall be limited by operator name and password (refer to
“System Password Protection/Control” section below).
