Alarms, job dispatching, emergencies, employee tracking and safety
Energy and oil & gas operations rely on two-way radios for voice communication across field teams.
TABLETmedia extends those same radios to flag equipment that needs attention and to keep lone workers safe.
Because TABLETmedia runs on-premise on your own network, it keeps working at remote sites and pipelines where connectivity is unreliable — and your operational data never leaves your control.
Capabilities deployed in the field
A sample of what energy customers have put to work with TABLETmedia:
Our server ties into SCADA, PLC, weather channels, and other sources. Notifications are then sent to:
- Digital radios as text messages
- Analog and digital radios as voice announcements
- Emails and SMS
- Telephones using text-to-speech
- Open gates, activate sirens, or turn on pumps and other equipment
For crews working alone in remote or hazardous areas, TABLETmedia turns the radio into a personal safety device:
- Man-down and no-motion detection that raises an alarm automatically
- Lone-worker check-in timers that escalate if a worker doesn’t respond
- One-press emergency alerts with the worker’s last known location
- Alerts delivered to radios, dispatch, phones, and email at once
Through our telephone interconnect, we connect to the property’s VoIP telephone system to:
- Make calls to groups and individual radios
- Dial internal or external telephones from the radios
- Automatically dial security or 911 in case of an emergency
The quality of telephone calls is clear and responsive, and typically telephone callers are not even aware that they are talking to someone on a PTT device.
TABLETmedia’s console and thin clients allow traditional PTT-based dispatching to reach groups or individual radios from desktops or notebooks.
Additional features include tracking radios via GPS, activating and monitoring equipment via telemetry, handling telephone calls, and recording PTT calls with TRBOrecorder.
Job Ticketing is about keeping track of tasks assigned to employees, which we handle via our browser-based job ticketing and webmail messaging solutions.
The typical functions supported include:
- User sign-in to enable users to pool the radios
- Replying to job tickets
- Create job tickets
- Receive and reply to text messages
A radio network running across remote field sites has to keep running. TRBOmonitor adds proactive, around-the-clock diagnostics that catch repeater faults, interference, and capacity problems before they become outages — essential on any multi-site or trunked network, and what makes a radio system you can genuinely call operations-critical.
