Broadcasting and alerting
Alerting, informing and mobilizing
The ability to simultaneously or sequentially alert and inform individual or multiple subscribers via phone or text messaging enables the creation of security systems in many operational areas. Such systems can:
- Mobilize emergency personnel in fire departments, rescue and emergency services (also in conjunction with external command and control computers
- Initiate targeted evacuation of industrial sites and buildings (e.g. hotels, department stores) in the event of fire and other emergencies
- Simultaneously notify police, hospitals,schools, media etc.
- Exchange information between headquarters and branch offices
- Connect calls to care staff via DECT/WLAN phones (in conjunction with paging systems and callback to patient rooms)
- Conduct emergency calls and locate casualties, also in combination with socalled Patient Monitoring Systems
- Transmit fault reports from external systems such as industrial control systems,or warning systems to mobile service engineers
- Important information can be distributed fast and reliably. Staff are more mobile and no longer have to perform time-consuming,routine tasks where there is a high risk of error.
