About PMR SafetyNet
Installed in over 140 of the country’s most established prisons and secure hospitals, PMR SafetyNet grew from a requirement to upgrade prison radio systems with an integrated and combined radio communications and staff alarm; it updates old equipment and uses the very best in wireless and IoT technology within secure facilities to improve staff safety.
About Datalog
Configured and deployed in some of the highest security environments and critical national infrastructures, worldwide, Datalog is a modular and scalable graphical user interface that monitors and controls local and remote third-party technology. System warnings, events and alarms are identified, prioritised, graphically located, and visually verified with automatic CCTV video to enable a more efficient and accountable response to incidents.
How it Works
SafetyNet provides a sophisticated staff alarm and location solution, either using SafetyNet Protect+ devices or using digital radios fitted with location tracking together with SafetyNet Mesh. This is a dedicated, secure managed network of beacons strategically positioned around a building.
Outside location tracking can be provided by extending the beacon coverage or supplemented using GPS location if using digital radios.
In the event of an incident, when a user presses the emergency button on a SafetyNet Protect+ device or a radio, other users on the system are alerted by text message, indicating the location of the person raising the alarm. Radios can also receive automated audio messages.
Through modular upgrades, existing systems can be improved to provide indoor location services to radio users. In parallel, support staff can be issued with a separate, compact personal alarm unit.
The Integration
The SafetyNet™ software platform provides the functions required for monitoring and reporting movements as well as location mapping for personal safety and security.
Datalog seamlessly integrates this data with information from other systems such as fire, staff safety alarms or CCTV systems, empowering organizations to make informed decisions and take timely actions.
“Our integration with Cortech is an invaluable addition to our PMR SafetyNet systems. The user-friendly Datalog interface prompts the relevant personnel to verify the alarms triggered by SafetyNet software, pinpoint the location immediately, and react.
PMR’s security alerts undergo reception and analysis through Datalog, seamlessly blending with other alarms and alerts to effectively raise the right alarm to the right people.” Steve Clarke, CEO Director of PMR Products Ltd.
Jason Blundell, Head of Sales for Cortech comments on the recent integration, “The SafetyNet wireless applications for radio communications from PMR Products, is a great addition to our portfolio of products that Datalog integrates. It allows for the sharing of alarm and location data in real time together with a full audit trail of all activities of alarm activations, staff movements and audio recordings making it ideal as an upgrade to existing installations.”
