Medical software LabWatch™ Pro

managementreportingmonitoring

Description
The Kaye LabWatch Pro environmental monitoring system provides centralized monitoring, alarm management and secure data archiving for stability, facility and regulatory applications. It collects data from wired NetPac modules and RF ValProbe loggers, detects alarm conditions and delivers notifications while maintaining a tamper-proof audit trail for compliance.

Complete Solution
Integrates precision sensors, wired and wireless field modules, data acquisition and reporting software to deliver continuous monitoring, automated reporting and secure archival storage.

Key Features & Benefits

• 21 CFR Part 11 compliance for electronic records and signatures.
• Automatic audit trail of alarms and operator actions.
• Centralized history of alarms and monitored data.
• Configurable alarm filtering to reduce nuisance alerts.
• Unlimited alarm notifications via phone, email, SMS, pager, fax or workstation.
• Easy data retrieval for viewing, reporting and regulatory inspection.
• Customizable historical data review and report generation.
• Encrypted secure data storage to prevent tampering.
• Runs on common industry platforms (Windows Server, GE Intellution iFIX, WIN-911).

Regulatory compliance
Reporting and archival features support documentation requirements for FDA, GMP/GLP, AABB, JCAHO, AAALAC and other regulatory bodies.

Scalability & Flexibility
Scales from small standalone installations to enterprise deployments monitoring hundreds of inputs across distributed networks. Supports turnkey, custom and hybrid wired/wireless configurations.

Wired / Wireless

• Distributed field hardware: NetPac wired modules and RF ValProbe wireless loggers.
• Redundant data storage across loggers, base stations and servers.
• Remote access via Terminal Services, Web Access or client ViewNodes.
• Integrated reporting and alarm notification channels (phone, email, SMS, etc.).
• Services: specification, installation, IQ/OQ development & execution, training, calibration and technical support.

Robust & Scalable System Architecture
Calibrated sensor modules (temperature, humidity, CO2, pressure, etc.) connect to RF ValProbe loggers or NetPac modules. RF loggers use a 2.4 GHz SmartMesh network to forward data to base stations; base stations connect to servers via Ethernet or USB and interface via OPC server or NetPac drivers. The LabWatch application runs on a LabWatch Server with software modules (GE Intellution iFIX, WIN-911, drivers, user app) and supports redundant servers and periodic archival to IT backup locations.
