DICE Central Station operates on UNIX, one of the most widely used operating systems in existence. UNIX is the operating system of choice for the Internet and the fastest computers made. UNIX is the system used most often for mission critical functions around the globe.

While most other Central Station software still uses outdated 3rd generation and even 2nd generation programming languages, DICE Central Station uses a 4th generation language that allows for easier system upgrades and a level of customization that allows your system to be tailored to fit your needs.

DICE Central Station is designed with Artificial Intelligence. It is capable of handling many types of signals without any data entry by operators. It is also capable of learning undefined signals and learning the data entry for those signals. The system typically handles between 90% and 95% of the signals that enter the Central Station. Multiple signals entering the system from the same account that need operator attention are grouped together for easy handling. The system also remembers which operators worked with specific accounts and directs signals to them accordingly.

DICE Central Station is the first to lead new operators through alarm handling. The system sends new operators lower priority signals and tells them who to call, what to say and what information is needed.
