Things that make it go BLEEP

You activate the pager function via a simple toggle switch which is accessed from the pull out side menu. The menu icon looks like this

When the pager is OFF it shows RED, but when it's active it turns green and you see a friendly message telling you that it is working, you will also see a flashing pager icon at the bottom of the app.

Try the demo button below.

Pager Sound [Alert Tone]

When your device receives the attendance request via SMS the pager is activated and will continue to sound and vibrate until it is acknowledged even if your device is in do not disturb mode or the volume control is turned down.

If your device is set to do not disturb or on a very low volume the pager will start by vibrating only for 30 seconds before gradually increasing the volume until either the battery goes flat or you silence the pager by pressing one of the confirmation buttons that appear.

The pager will not activate if your device is in flight mode.

Simply respond to the tasking by holding down a button for 1 second, the app automatically sends confirmation to A&T

Each response button triggers a different set of useful features.

SOUTHBOURNE

As each response is received by A&T the grey callsign icons turn to show a status colour, red if the person is going to the station, green for direct to RV and black if not responding. The same information is also shown for any flank teams tasked.

The rescue pager app contains lots of useful maps.

Rescue Pager remembers what time you respond to any tasking, and keeps a record of the miles you cover to the RV point.

All data is stored to YOUR device so nobody else can view it without your permission.

The pager automatically pauses the milage log if you go direct to the Coastguard Station so that it does not log those non-claimable CRV miles.

Scroll down or tap on a highlighted date for more details.

Rescue Pager also contains a duty calendar, which links to a central diary managed by each team.

Users can add their availability up to twelve months in advance and the system collates the information and works out a duty rota equally based on availability, skillset and team dynamics.
