Why Manufacturers Are Replacing Ignition By Inductive Automation's Alarm Notification Module
More Than a Module. Full Plant-Wide Response.
Alarm notification is one module inside Ignition's SCADA platform. SeQent has spent 30+ years doing one thing: delivering critical alarms from signal to resolution, across every system, device, and team.
Purpose-Built Platform, Not a Module
Platform Advantage
Native Motorola Radio
Lower TCO
All Channels, One License
