Indoor Positioning System

IPS is unprecedented location technology utilized by the Computer Panic Buttons, Mobile Safety App, and Bluetooth Panic Buttons to help locate someone signaling for emergency assistance. IPS can locate a panic button signal down to the floor and room number, even if the person who activated it is on the move. Uses existing Wi-Fi Access Points to obtain an accurate location (no hardware). IPS was independently tested by NIST (The National Institute of Standards and Technology) in 2017, which found its location accuracy to far exceed FCC location requirements through 2021. be connected be secure bAlert be ready be confident bAlert be mobile be aware bAlert Providing end-to-end protection when a critical event strikes.

Indoor Positioning System FAQ’s

Q: How is IPS set-up?

A: Complete and upload the template contained within the portal: access point location and BSSID of that access point.

Q: What is a BSSID?

A: Unique identifier that all Wi-Fi access points have.

Q: How accurate will IPS be in my organization?

A: That depends on the density of the Wi-Fi network. Most mid to large size organizations can expect between 2-4 room level access.

Q: If I can’t access this data, should we still buy the app?

A: Yes, the data can be gathered at any time (it’s not required to launch the app) and the apps other benefits can still be received.

Q: What happens if thee App user does not allow access to location services? A: The App cannot determine if a person is within a geofence and thus, it prompts the user to call 911. Q: Does the App allow First Responders to track users anytime? A: No. App users must signal for assistance before tracking starts. Q: Does the App track locations when the panic button is pressed? A: Yes, the App will continue to track locations until First Responders signal the incident is over.

More Discrete! Clients are choosing CPBs are a discreet software panic button that can easily be installed on desktops, laptops and tablet devices.

Remotely managed and updated! CPBs are downloaded, installed, tested and repaired from the cloud… and software updates are automatic. Cost savings! CPBs provide the client with complete coverage potential allowing them to protect their community affordably (an alternative to traditional ‘bank-style’ hardwired panic buttons). Easier to test! Traditional buttons are extremely labor intensive to test. The connectivity of CPB’s is available in the portal 24/7/365 Better Information! Using the tiles, safety forces have a much better idea of the situation before they arrive on scene.

Configurable communication! Admins have a virtually limitless variety

  • f communication options to activate

when the CPB is used.

Q: Can CPB’s be installed on laptops? If so, will they report the correct location when activated? A: Yes. Unlike traditional panic buttons, CPB’s also use HIPS and, as long as access point information has been preconfigured into the system, will report the real-time location of an activation, not just the persons office. Q: Are the incident type ‘Tiles’ configurable? A: Yes. Each client can configure the incident type and image associated with the tiles to best match the most common situations in their environment. Q: When installed, does the program auto run or do people logging into the computer need to run it each time? A: The CPB auto runs on login, restart and bootup, so users don’t need to remember to start the application.

Q: Does the computer panic button record video when it’s activated? A: Not at this point. The potential HIPAA ramifications need to be fully considered within healthcare and certain university settings. Q: Are CPB’s available for Mac and PC? Are there any technical requirements that need to be considered? A: Yes, CPB’s are available for Mac and PC (Mac version in beta). PC Deployments require a minimum OS of Windows 7 and minimum .NET Framework of 4.7.1. Mac deployments require a minimum OS of OSX 10.11 Q: How does an account setup their CPB’s? A: They simply need to download the software from the portal. Q: Can the CPB’s receive information (in addition to sending it)? A: Yes. Purchased with the mass notification system, screen takeovers are a supported method of sending.

Intelligent Call Routing

Many organizations prefer to deal with life safety matters internally, especially if they have their

  • control. bAlert’s intelligent call routing capabilities enable that control.

Emergency Response Teams

Teams will receive a text or automated call with user information (including location) when a panic button is activated from within a Geofence.

Typical team members include:

  • Officers patrolling the campus or facility
  • Chiefs of police (who are not always in the command center but want to be informed)
  • Persons who are stationed close to an area

Q: Can battery life and buttons in the field be monitored? Q: Can a device be paired with more then 1 BSB? A: Yes, the pairing takes place within the Mobile Safety App. Thus, the phone must also have the mobile safety app installed. A: This depends on environmental factors such as walls and building materials. Generally, within 75 feet of the phone is safe. A: The BPB makes a specific noise, so users know their activation has not reached safety

  • forces. Note: the app sends a push notification

to users if they have force closed the app or turned Bluetooth off. A: Yes. This information is available in the portal A: Yes. You can pair up to 5 BSB’s with 1 device Q: Can institutions brand the BSB’s with their logo? A: Yes, minimum order quantity of 200 is required.

Typically, the IT groups are most likely to have an objection Objection #1: Unsure of how to implement and maintain IPS

  • The CPB and MSA systems contains a self-healing network that detects unknown

access points and records them in the system. This ensures that Portal Admins can simply log into the system and update the database 24/7/365. Example: We change access points all the time, how do we keep the system up to date? Objection #2: Concerns over increased Wi-Fi network traffic Example: What’s the impact of this system on our network?

  • MNS-Nothing
  • MSA-The app only passes traffic when someone signals for assistance.

The traffic is low especially relative to how serious this activation is

  • CPB-Passes small amounts of traffic ONLY on check-in and activation

Objection #3: Do we need to open new ports in the firewall?

  • The system only requires for inbound and outbound traffic through standard ports,

which is almost certainly happening already so no changes will be needed. Example: We don’t want to compromise our network security by making firewall changes. Objection #4: Our machines don’t have the minimum .NET Framework requirements (CPB only). Example: We run .NET Framework version 4.6 and are unsure of upgrading

  • Machines can run multiple versions of .NET Framework AT THE SAME TIME, so

there’s no need to uninstall the version your other applications are using. You can simply install 4.7.1 in addition to your existing framework.
