Emergency alarms:

PTT radios have a one-push emergency button that is clearly visible and operated through touch. The button, when pushed, sends an instant alarm in the form of a text or voice message or a noise that alerts the authorities and other workers in emergencies.

The radios trigger an alarm when they are:

  • Inactive for too long.
  • Taken out of a specified boundary.
  • Lying in a flat position for too long.

Man down: 

PeakPTT radios have a man-down option that triggers an alarm if the radio is lying flat or at a certain angle for a long time. This feature ensures the worker receives support if they are unconscious or injured.

Lone worker: 

The radio has a lone worker feature where a timer is placed in the radio that measures inactivity. Where the radio is not operated for a specified time, an alarm is triggered.

GPS: 

PeakPTT radios have GPS that offer real-time location of the workers, which helps in tracking workers engaged in remote areas. It also offers geo-fencing that alerts workers, preventing them from entering hazardous areas.

Priority interrupt: 

The radios have a priority interrupt feature that allows the interruption of existing calls to transmit emergency communication. This ensures the priority calls are dispatched faster during emergencies.

Remote monitor: 

The remote monitor feature allows the authorities to remotely monitor a worker’s radio to offer instant assistance during emergencies.

Stun and revive: 

The stun and revive feature is useful when a worker’s radio is lost or stolen. The features allow remote deactivation and reactivation of the radios to prevent unauthorised use of the radios.

Improves coordination: 

PeakPTT radios offer clear, seamless communication that effectively connects workers, improving team coordination while enhancing their productivity..

PeakPTT offers a better, faster way to keep your teams in sync and help keep them safe too.
