Alarms, job dispatching, emergencies, employee tracking and safety
Utility organizations rely on two-way radios for voice communication across their field and operations teams.
TABLETmedia makes those same radios do more: a single TRBOserver ties into SCADA and other alarm systems, PBXs, and more — improving efficiency, accountability, and safety.
WorkSafe adds another layer of safety and accountability — it identifies exactly which employee issued a distress call, and manages radio inventory by holding staff accountable for the devices they sign in.
Because TABLETmedia runs on-premise on your own network, control and operational data never leaves your environment — aligning with NERC CIP and your utility security policy.
Capabilities deployed in the field
A sample of what utilities customers have put to work with TABLETmedia:
Our server ties into SCADA, PLC, video management (VMS), access control, 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
TABLETmedia’s GPS tracking lets you follow vehicle location and run historical and live reports that multiple users can open from any browser, on any desktop or mobile device. Save on cellular data plans by sending GPS location to Milsoft Multispeak or your existing tracking system.
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 spanning your service territory 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.
