How to Connect SeQent to Valcom PA and Paging Systems
SeQent sends voice alarm announcements to Valcom PA and paging systems, plant-wide or by zone, for noisy areas where screen and phone alerts get missed.
Critical Alarm Notifications Through Valcom PA Systems
SeQent and Valcom connect industrial control systems to plant-wide paging and visual alerting infrastructure, so critical alarms are heard and seen across your facility, not just on screens.
Integration
How Valcom Works With SeQent
SeQent’s FirstPAGE Alarm Manager ingests alarms and events from SCADA, PLC, and MES systems, applies intelligent routing and escalation rules, and delivers notifications to Valcom’s industrial communication infrastructure via SIP and SNPP protocols. Valcom’s IP6000 Site Manager activates the appropriate endpoint devices; IP speakers, horns, visual flashers, and LED signs, ensuring critical alerts reach operators, maintenance teams, and safety personnel wherever they are working, without relying solely on screens, radios, or mobile devices.
