New alarm detection is inactive when the handset is connected to a charger – USB, Dual
Charger or Speakerphone Dock. No icon displays during the inactive state. Once the
handset is removed from the charger, monitoring begins and the icon turns green.
Alarms must be manually cleared. They cannot be cleared by placing the handset into a
charger.
Integration with Third Party Applications
Customers will receive the most benefit with Spectralink Personal Alarms by integrating the
handsets with monitoring applications and real-time location-tracking (RTLS) systems.
Monitoring applications, such as lone worker systems, can monitor workers in real time and
implement sophisticated response management procedures such as notifying response teams
in the case of an alarm. Such applications can be developed by third parties and customized
according to a facility’s needs.
Location tracking systems can provide pin-point accuracy in real-time to reduce the time spent
finding the incident location. The following section describes several integration options when
employing mandown handsets.
See the Spectralink 84-Series Web Developer’s Guide for full information about API
applications.
Implementation without application integration or Location Systems
Running/tilt/still alarms can be configured along with the automatic emergency call (aka
Emergency Dial). In the event of any one of the three motion alarms being activated this will
prompt an automatic emergency call to the configured emergency dial number. No application
integration or RTLS is required for this first level of implementation. The emergency call
provides notification of an alarm event. If the handset is configured for local notification, when
an alarm is triggered the handset will emit noises to help rescuers locate the handsets.
