SafetyNet™ Protect+ is a compact battery operated staff alarm that can be allocated to someone to provide real-time location information within designated indoor areas. The unit will raise an alert if the alarm button is pressed, a rip cord is pulled, or if it senses rapid movement or no movement at all.
Using SafetyNet Protect+ to monitor the well-being and location of people, particularly those working in potentially confrontational situations, provides them with the reassurance that if assistance is required it can be summoned quickly to their exact location.
SafetyNet Protect+ was developed for prison and secure home applications but is equally relevant in the protection of others working in potentially confrontational or hazardous roles, particularly lone workers.
How does it work?
SafetyNet™ Protect+ provides location updates via SafetyNet™ Mesh, a network of routers and beacons, with beacons located at key points in a defined area. SafetyNet™ Protect+ devices can used to provide continuous tracking data or to provide location data only when the alarm is activated, depending on the application.
SafetyNet™ Protect+, which has a highly sensitive movement detector that provides accurate shock measurement for fall and no movement man‐down detection, will raise an alert if the alarm button is pressed, a rip cord is pulled, or if it senses rapid movement or no movement at all.
Tracking of SafetyNet™ Protect+ units and alarm activation are managed centrally by SafetyNet™ Software. When a Protect+ alarm is activated the control room is alerted and all SafetyNet™ Protect+ devices on the system sound an alarm and receive messages with specific instructions, e.g. attend/don’t attend, including location information if required. The alarm will continue to sound until cancelled centrally in the control room.
SafetyNet™ Protect+ is designed to monitor people within a defined indoor area. The system can be used in any indoor situation but is especially useful in areas where achieving reliable GPS or Wi-Fi coverage is challenging.
