April 16, 2018

Nexus is an emergency lighting management system that allows the user to see the real-time status of the entire emergency lighting and exit sign system, run system diagnostics, perform required monthly and annual functional tests, generate maintenance logs, run compliance reports and perform other system-critical functions quickly and easily all from a central control unit.

Compared to manual management, automated monitoring is more efficient and less costly and provides higher quality data that is not subject to human error.

In the interest of public safety, Building & Life Safety Codes outlines the obligations of building owners in relation to testing and monitoring of Exit signs and Emergency Lighting, to ensure the safe evacuation of occupants in an emergency.
