SYSTEM WORKS
Congratulations on the purchase of your new ATTACK Digital Fire
Training System.
This state of the art training tool uses digital ame technology, sound effects, and smoke
to provide a realistic training experience to learn proper re extinguishment techniques.
ATTACK can sense the location and amount of the water hitting the panel. If the trainee
has properly aimed the extinguishant and used an effective technique; the digital re will
be extinguished.
ATTACK uses hundreds of LEDs and an on-board microprocessor to dynamically
generate digital ames. Depending on the class of re and level of difculty selected
by the instructor, the ames will grow, diminish and respond as the trainee attempts to
extinguish the simulated re.
Trainees can ght the ATTACK digital re using any size hose line, a laser-driven
infrared extinguisher, a pressurized air/water SmartExtinguisher
®
, or a conventional water
extinguisher. There is an array of sensors on ATTACK that allow the system to interact with
the trainee and detect where and how the trainee is using the extinguishant. The system
responds by increasing or decreasing the size of the ames in the area the user is hitting
relative to the trainee’s technique and efforts.
ATTACK has three different modes that can be used based on the type of extinguisher
being used. The modes are “laser”, “water can”, and “hose line”. The “laser” mode is
always on and allows a LION laser driven extinguisher or the LION digital hose line to be
used. The “water can” mode is used when a LION SmartExtinguisher or a standard water
extinguisher is used. Finally, the “hose line” mode is used with hose lines. Each mode
has
been carefully designed to react appropriately to the type of extinguisher being used.
To successfully extinguish the re, the trainee must use an effective technique. If the
trainee aims below or above the base of the re, the ames will diminish, but will not be
extinguished. If the trainee aims at only one side of the re, that side will be extinguished
while the other side continues to burn.
