Real-time floor monitor
Every active call, every line, every shift — visible at a glance on phone, browser, or wall-mounted TV.
Helix-Meridian Pulse is a signal-and-escalation system for the modern production floor. Workers tap. The right person responds. Nothing falls through the cracks.
Today
A worker has a problem. They walk away from their station to find a supervisor. That takes 5 to 15 minutes.
What breaks
Nobody knows how long the line has been down or why. Issues fall through cracks at shift change. Maintenance requests get lost on whiteboards.
What it costs
Physical andon boards run $10,000 to $50,000 per line installed and can't be reconfigured without an electrician.
01 · SIGNAL
Worker taps a tablet. Call hits the floor in less than a second.
02 · ROUTE
The right person on shift gets the alert on phone, screen, or TV.
03 · ESCALATE
Nobody responds in time? Auto-escalates to the next tier.
04 · LEARN
Every call is logged, classified, and timed. KPIs in real time.
Every active call, every line, every shift — visible at a glance on phone, browser, or wall-mounted TV.
Configurable per signal type. Five tiers. If nobody responds in the SLA window, the next tier fires automatically.
Every shift change gets a report: top issues, carry-over calls, average response, average resolution.
Three-tier root-cause taxonomy on every safety, emergency, or line-down resolution. Trends, breakdowns, and exports.
Logo and brand color drive the entire UI through CSS variables. Re-skins instantly. Safety colors are fixed.
Any phone, tablet, or smart TV with a browser. No installs. No PLC integration. No electrician.

A flat comparison of price, deploy time, and how much of each product is actually about floor calls — not connected-worker suites or OEE platforms with andon as a side feature.
