2. Using SmartMsg CenterPoint Software
SmartMsg CenterPoint software is required for networked systems with Commander®
software. To verify the Informer is registered with the SmartMsg CenterPoint server:
1. Open the CenterPoint application. This application is typically installed under
C:\Program Files (x86)\Federal Signal Corporation\CenterPoint
2. Under the Users tab, each Informer that was added is displayed as a Siren_n.
where n = contact number (See Assigning System Server and Unit ID)
Examples:
Contact 009 = Siren_9
Contact 112 = Siren_112
If the Informer device is not shown in the CenterPoint users list, contact Technical
Support for further information.
