Tactron - Personal Accountability Products

fireTrax

Fire ground accountability is not optional. Issues of life-safety, incident command and control, and leadership liability make tracking who is on-scene with what qualifications, when they arrive/depart and where they are located of utmost importance. NIMS compatible accountability is the call: fireTRAX® Accountability is the answer, easy as 1, 2, 3.

fireTRAX® meets the requirements of the Dept. of HLS 2005 Authorized Equipment List (AEL): Item 4.4 - Systems, Operations Area Personnel Tracking and Accountability.

Manual Accountability

Constant awareness of the status and locations of personnel at your site is the cornerstone of fire ground safety. NFPA 1561 mandates the use of an accountability system – including the ability to rapidly account for personnel on scene as well as special tracking of crews in the Hot Zone. This system helps you meet your NIMS accountability requirement. The Tactron manual accountability system is one of the most widely used systems in the U.S. today.

Electronic Accountability

MOBILE COMPUTING
Scanner-enabled, mobile units act as the bridge between manual and electronic accountability. Scan the responder’s ID tag to display qualifications, check-in, and make assignments with all events time and date stamped. Simple PAR reports provide number and status of all units and personnel. Search the database by selecting quals or display the site history of a selected responder.

ELECTRONIC INCIDENT COMMAND
If the incident dictates, deploy a fireTRAX® Command laptop to monitor multiple mobile units as part of a wireless local area network (WLAN). The electronic command board shows a tactical diagram of all assignments, companies, and personnel. Run multiple PAR timers, maintain a command log, work a checklist, and create ID tags right at the site. Establishing a wide-area network allows remote facilities – such as an EOC – to monitor the incident.
