Abstract
The invention provides a computer-implemented system (and corresponding method) arranged and configured to manage, manipulate or monitor a plurality of devices provided in association with a unit. The unit may be a vehicle or structure, such as an automotive vehicle, a boat, a trailer or building. The vehicle or structure may be an incident command unit. The invention enables a user to monitor or manage the plurality of devices via a consolidated interface. The plurality of devices may include a satellite support mechanism supporting satellite-related equipment provided in association with the unit; and the system may comprise a satellite controller component to enable a user to manipulate and/or re-orientate the satellite support mechanism via the consolidated interface.
Claims32
A computer-implemented system arranged and configured to communicate with a plurality of devices provided in association with a unit comprising:
- a consolidated interface to enable a user to monitor, manipulate or manage the plurality of devices via the interface;
- and
- a satellite controller;
- wherein the plurality of devices includes a satellite support mechanism supporting satellite-related equipment provided in association with the unit;
- and
- wherein the satellite controller component is arranged and configured to enable a user to manipulate and/or re-orientate the satellite support mechanism via the interface.
(canceled)
The system according to claim and 1 further comprising one or both of a backup independent network capability and battery backup component.
The system according to claim and 1 further comprising at least one input device operable to set the power state of the plurality of devices or the system itself.
A computer-implemented method to manage, manipulate or monitor a plurality of devices provided in conjunction with an incident command unit, the method comprising:
- permitting a user to monitor the plurality of devices via a consolidated interface wherein;
- and
- enabling a user to manipulate and/or re-orientate a satellite support mechanism via the consolidated interface with a satellite controller component;
- wherein
- the plurality of devices includes the satellite support mechanism supporting satellite-related equipment provided in association with the incident command unit.
A computer-implemented system arranged and configured to manage, manipulate or monitor a plurality of devices provided in association with a water-based vehicle, such that a user is able to monitor or manage the plurality of devices via a consolidated interface, wherein:
- the plurality of devices includes a satellite support mechanism supporting satellite-related equipment provided in association with the water-based vehicle;
- and
- the system comprises a satellite controller component arranged and configured to enable a user to manipulate and/or re-orientate the satellite support mechanism via the consolidated interface.
A computer-implemented system for managing, manipulating or monitoring a plurality of devices provided in association with a communications unit, the system being arranged and configured to permit a user to monitor or manage the plurality of devices via a consolidated interface.
