How it Works
- Each component automatically creates a path through the network
- Repeaters listen for signals from other nearby wireless Repeaters to find suitable message paths in order to create the mesh network
- A single Hub controls the system with repeaters placed where accurate location determination is required and where messaging coverage is needed
- The Hub and Repeaters automatically form a self- organizing and self-repairing network; the network automatically self-repairs and creates new message pathways in the event of a repeater failure
- A two-way pager or call fob with personal alarm button is used to call for assistance
- The location information comes directly from the closest repeater; which then relays the location and user information to the Hub and other two-way pagers on the system
- Web based software can be used to create group broadcast messages which are then sent to two-way pagers over the mesh network.
- Acknowledgements can then be sent back over the network to the Hub or browser of the individual that sent the message.

Components
(Rollover for descriptions)The Hub
The Hub
The heart of the system, the Hub is responsible for processing alarms, delivering messages and providing over-the-air configurations to the repeaters, pagers and Call Fobs. Battery back-up if power fails. Web browser application and management plus connections to outside systems. Full log and audit trail of messages and alarms.
Wireless Repeater
Wireless Repeater
Battery powered Repeater provides the messaging path to and from the pagers and Call Fobs, plus relays the location information back to the Hub. Designed to run for over two years before needing a battery replacement. Polling of other Repeaters allows the best path back to the Hub to be found, even in the event some repeaters are disabled.
Two-way Wireless Pager with Personal Alarm
Two-way Pager
Four line alphanumeric display pager with call acknowledgement and personal security alarm button. A press of the alarm button immediately notifies key personnel with information not just on who triggered the alarm, but also where that individual is. A receipt message can also be sent back to the pager so the user knows their call was received. Both routine and emergency messages can be sent discreetly to the pager over the wireless network.
Two-way Call Fob with Personal Alarm
Two-way Call Fob
Small and discreet Call Fob with personal security alarm button. A press of the alarm button immediately notifies key personnel with information not just on who triggered the alarm, but also where that individual is. A notification can also be sent back to the Fob so the user knows their call was received.
