MDN
– Man Down Notifier
Man Down Notifier (MDN) proactively
monitors workers to identify if they have suffered a fall or accident. It
does so by dispatching a notification to the appropriate response group or
individual when the radio’s accelerometer (motion sensor) detects a lack
of movement, a horizontal tilt or both. MDN isn’t intrusive like other man
down solutions. Its rich functionality, including tilt recalibration, sleep
timer and pre-alarm configuration, significantly reduce the number of
false alarms while ensuring mobile workers are protected.
Proactive
Lone Worker Monitoring on MOTOTRBO™ Digital Radios
Teldio’s Man Down Notifier (MDN) is
a cost-effective and potentially lifesaving way of detecting if a worker has
had a fall or accident. By using MOTOTRBO’s integrated motion sensor, MDN
monitors workers by detecting a lack of movement, a horizontal tilt, or
both. The application is both reliable and robust, and ready to be
integrated into your Lone Worker policy.
At Teldio, we recognize that not all jobs and tasks are
completed when standing up-right. That’s why MDN parameters best detect when an
employee has suffered a fall or fallen victim to a work accident. The
application is also intelligent in that it limits the number of false alarms
with its parameters. MDN parameters are easily customized, and users can
quickly set their appropriate point of reference on their radio to avoid false
alarms.
MDN Features
- Intelligent man down detection algorithms to detect when a worker is in need of help
- Man down alarm audio beacons to help locate workers
- Man down pre-alarms to allow users to cancel false alarms
- Sleep mode to temporarily disable man down detection
- Configurable parameters for motion, tilt, pre-alarm and sleep mode timers
- Automatic emergency notification to the appropriate group or individual when man down alarms are triggered
- Different communication devices can simultaneously receive the man down alarm notifications when paired with ACS
- Server-based software enhances the robustness of the solution and prevents false alarms
- Complementary operation alongside RBX +Plus on the same MOTOTRBO™ expansion card
- Fully compatible with Teldio’s application portfolio
Enhanced Worker Safety
MDN is an intelligent lone worker safety application that lets employees complete their jobs while monitoring their safety in the background. It works non-intrusively directly from the workers MOTOTRBO™ radio without interfering with ongoing activities. Customizable parameters allow for a flexible solution that is sure to enhance lone worker safety. The application ensures that mobile workers are not left to their own peril when completing potentially dangerous assignments and tasks. MDN automatically sends a notification to response teams or individuals so that when a lone worker needs help, help will come.Frequent Use Cases
- Utility worker completing a tricky repair in the field
- Security guard on patrol during the night shift
- Maintenance engineer completing his rounds in the facility
Increased Situational Awareness
It’s all nice and well that the response group is notified of a man down alarm, but what happens if they can’t find the person in need of help? MDN emits a loud audible audio beacon from the MOTOTRBO™ radio when a man down alarm is triggered. This feature greatly reduces the response time to MDN alarms. No need to worry that MDN will trigger cumbersome false alarms. MDN uses intelligent man down algorithms to detect the well-being of workers and is calibrated to the reference point best suited for that particular worker. The application also emits a pre-alarm prior to triggering a full alarm so that workers can cancel the MDN alarm.Frequent Use Case
- Campus security guards on patrol
- Construction workers completing jobs in hazardous sites
- Worker in lab completing tests with hazardous chemicals
