    About TransForm N CMS

    Barco’s CMS software is an advanced control room management suite, and part of the TransForm N system proposition. It supports a fully modular networked architecture through a set of software components, which allows for easy video-wall management, efficient collaboration and fast decision-making in and beyond any control room.

    The software provides operators and decision-makers with easy access to video, images and data, and allows them to connect to this information, to configure how and where it is displayed, and to collaborate in the most efficient way. The feature license based setup and multiple deployment options give your control room system an unmatched flexibility and availability.

    All-round control room management

    Barco’s CMS monitoring and collaboration software proves its power in various control room environments and is field-proven by over 12,000 installations worldwide. From Traffic and Surveillance scenarios to Utilities, Process Control, C4I and Broadcast uses, Barco’s CMS suite allows operators to make the most of their complex networked control room environment.

    Flexible integration

    Customers who have invested in a VMS or PSIM solution, can also benefit from the open and secure APIs supported by CMS, which allows the software to be integrated with other leading situational awareness applications. The assured compatibility with a large number of ICT & AV source types, assures the full flexibility to bring any source on any video wall inside any multi-location distributed TransForm N deployed system.

    Long term support

    Barco’s CMS Software Care program assures that via 3-monthly version updates the CMS software and with it the complete TransForm N system is kept secure, and new feature improvements are added to answer your evolving business needs.

    Using CMS: a functionality overview

    Creating perspectives and sharing with colleagues

    One of the basics of CMS, is the use of perspectives. These abstract views, grouping content windows that logically belong together, can then be used as one element, and as such be shared between operators within the control room, in remote control rooms, or even to mobile devices in the field. Perspectives can either be predefined or created on the spot using the simple graphical user interface. The video shows how a perspective is created, populated with content, and shared with a colleague.

    Sharing perspectives on the video wall

    Using CMS allows operators to easily share content on the video wall. By simply selecting the perspective to share and choosing the destination (i.e. the video wall and the place in its layout), the operator gets the content on the wall in no time
    NOTE: Please notice the difference between a perspective and a layout. The first is a group of content that the user has put together to form a logical whole. The layout is the way the content on a video wall is structured. Perspectives can be shared with colleagues in other control rooms and even field workers. Layouts are fixed to the video wall.

    Ensuring security with User Roles

    A mission-critical environment like a control room, where a lot of sensitive information is gathered, requires a strict security management. The User Roles defined in CMS, enable the operator to only access the information he or she really needs. Different roles can be defined, granting access to the specific information an operator needs - and nothing more.
