Connecting Wire Services
Each wire or data service that you receive needs to be connected to a port on the WireReady computer. We can capture national services like AP, ABC, CBS, CNN, NPR, DACS, etc; state services like Learfield, Network Indiana, MNN, and even your EAS outputs. WinCap can also be configured to trip a remote alarm device (ID5000), sold separately.

ID5000
The ID5000 is used to generate an alarm when your WireReady PC (s) receives specified wire feeds. When the alarm is tripped, it will activate the built-in audible alarm and/or the optional external alarm you may have connected.
