Integrated, One-Box EAS Solution
The EASyCAP® Encoder/Decoder combines everything needed to deliver audio and video alerts in an integrated, one-box solution, including: EAS, CAP, local access messages, audio/video peripherals, control over serial and network based devices, interfaces for network management systems, and network protocols and interfaces.

The EASyCAP® platform can receive all of the required alert messages and then control all of the devices necessary to deliver the messages to subscribers. It can also handle local access messages for franchise agreements.

Flexible, Powerful, Open Architecture Platform
This next-gen solution not only handles all of today’s EAS requirements, but provides a flexible and expandable platform designed to accommodate requirements and features that may be needed in the future.

As CAP standards and FEMA requirements continue to evolve, our innovative open architecture simplifies the process of making changes and adding new capabilities and features.

All software and firmware can be upgraded across the Network. The EASyCAP® platform utilizes common interfaces such as secure web servers and SNMP, allowing standard tools to be used for management and monitoring.

EAS Encoder/Decoder
Four input channels are provided to monitor for EAS messages. Three of the inputs are configurable as external audio or optional internal radio receivers.

All EAS inputs are decoded simultaneously and overlapping alerts are stored until they can be processed to guarantee that all incoming alerts are received and processed.

Multiple user interfaces are provided to allow operators to encode EAS messages: front panel touchscreen LCD, telephone interface, general purpose inputs, and secure Web Server.

CAP
This next-generation EAS platform is in compliance with all of the IPAWS CAP standards. The EASyCAP® allows multiple sources to be configured for receiving CAP alerts. Available CAP sources include: IPAWS Open Atom feed, AlertSense, Rave Mobile Safety, and Omnilert.

Additional interfaces can be added as they are defined and required by FEMA, the FCC, individual State plans, and individual operators.

Automatic Weekly Test Generator
Required Weekly Tests can be configured to be automatically generated at random times each week.

Custom and Local Access Messaging
Satisfying local franchise agreements, the EASyCAP® provides the ability for local authorities to send alert messages (audio and video) to subscribers, and the ability for operators to send administrative or informative messages to subscribers. Custom text and audio can be configured with the message and then played back immediately, or saved for playback at a later time.

Secure Web Server
A Secure Web Server (HTTPS) is the primary user interface, providing an intuitive, easy to use interface for management and monitoring, configuration, testing, calibration, and log maintenance.
