The PriMega Message Gateway is the central management point of a system. All calls, messages, alarms, and notifications are processed by the PriMega and logged for usage and diagnostic reports. The PriMega manages a paging network from the message input using telephone and data lines to the data output to one or more paging transmitters, email or text messaging destinations.
The PriMega is a modular design allowing you to choose which paging and message handling functions you need. Features include direct VoIP telephone access for the ultimate in commercial and private Radio Paging systems. Using network-based direct calling to the “SIP” enabled PriMega reduces telephone interface costs and provides calling from virtually anywhere using VoIP.
The PriMega allows companies using a VoIP capable PBX to bypass the PSTN giving your users virtual access. Connect medical and industrial remote monitoring equipment using TAP, TNPP and plain text data to the PriMega using Prism Inet, the new IP interface for industry-standard message input protocols. With built-in IVR/Voicemail, text messaging to pagers and phones, email copy of messages and all the popular paging signaling formats make the PriMega the ultimate for centralized messaging.
The PriMega is designed to accept text messages using various protocols such as TNPP, Email (SMTP), SNPP and Computer Interface (CIF) connections over Ethernet and serial ports. Messages are routed out according to instructions in the User Database. The messages can be sent as Numeric (digits only) and Alphanumeric (text message) to your own paging transmitters or to other paging networks. Messages can also be sent to Email addresses or SMTP destinations for display on cell phones or Wi-Fi phones.
PriMega systems perform universal message handling utilizing powerful protocol conversion and message routing functions. By connecting external data sources and destinations, the PriMega links private and commercial messaging services.
PriMega systems can be configured to accept text messaging data using the following protocols as well as send messages out using these protocols.
Prism encoders provide maximum efficiency and message throughput while mixing almost any formats on the same channel. Encoders support up to 8 channels plus zones. The encoder is paired with the ipBSC for transmitter control of more than 1,000 transmitters per channel.
The Dispatcher software module performs a one-to-many data management function. It receives paging data from the encoder and sends the data to all “In Service” base stations on the paging channel.
Encoded messages are sent in UDP packets as Broadcast or Unicast on the customer network.
Dispatcher sends a confirmation to the Page NoLoss server when an encoded packet is sent to ipBSCv2 devices for possible retransmission if packets are missing during a switch between computing planes in a redundant system.
Dispatcher tracks ACKs, NAKs, and no responses from base station controllers for each FLEX batch and sends a copy of each batch to the Dispatcher Archive PostgreSQL database for decoding and message logging.
The Linux-based virtual server prevents loss of pages during automatic switching between primary and backup systems. The Page NoLoss server accepts messages from the PriMega message processor and sends them to the Encoder module for dispatch to transmitters.
When PriMega processing switches between planes (for example during a failure or maintenance), the NoLoss server sends out any messages that were not transmitted. This ensures messages are not lost during system transitions.
The Operations and Management Interface (OMI) manages system components and data flowing through the system. OMI logs required data and provides site monitoring and alarm processing.
The OMI module performs operations and management of PriMega system components including the central paging system, base station controllers and paging transmitters.
