READ INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE TPASS®5 Intended Use TPASS®5 is a motion-sensing, radio telemetry PASS device designed for use by firefighters, first-responders, and industrial users engaged in firefighting, rescue, and other hazardous duties. TPASS®5 provides distinct audible and visual alarms for indicating a user distress or panic alarm. The TPASS®5 also incorporates Evacuate, PAR, and Roll-Call signaling that establishes an Automated Accountability System when used with other Grace monitoring equipment. TPASS®5 has a very loud audio alarm, allowing rescue personnel to rapidly pinpoint the location of the firefighter or worker in distress. It is highly recommended that all personnel be thoroughly trained in the proper use and operation of TPASS®5, including other Grace equipment such as the In-Command Automated Accountability System prior to use. Always inspect and test TPASS®5 prior to use. Failure to do so may expose the user to serious injury or loss of life. WARNING! When using TPASS®5 with the In-Command system, ensure In-Command Computer Speakers Are Not Muted During Firefighting Activities As Emergency Alarms May Not Be Noticed. ® TPASS 5 Features ● Auto-On Activation by Removal of Accountability Key ● Panic Button Alarm Activation ● Pre-Alert: Audible Warning Before Full Alarm ● Automated Accountability System using In-Command ● Radio telemetry for immediate notification of firefighter emergency distress ● No voice radio needed for Evacuation signaling and user acknowledgement ● Automated PAR check signaling without using a voice radio, configurable time from In-Command ● Roll-Call signaling without voice radio, configurable from In-Command ● Audible and Visual Indicators for all Modes of Operation ● High performance radio signaling with Smart-Signal repeating capability ® Operating Instructions ACTIVATING TPASS 5: When the TPASS 5 is removed from a storage position, the Accountability Key automatically detaches, activating TPASS®5 into the motion Sensing Mode. ® ® During activation, an operational signal of escalating audio tones will be heard and an alternating display of two green LEDs indicates the TPASS®5 is in Sensing Mode. When TPASS®5 is activated, its internal radio transmits signals that are received and displayed on In-Command. In motion sensing mode, TPASS®5 will strobe two green LEDs in opposing corners, alternating to the opposite corners when motion is sensed. PRE-ALERT MODE: After approximately 18 to 23 seconds of no motion, TPASS®5 begins an audible Pre-Alert sound and an alternating green and yellow LED wig-wag display. The Pre-Alert sound progressively becomes louder, indicating TPASS®5 is closer to going into Alarm. ALARM MODE: There are two methods of activating the Alarm Mode. 1) MOTION-ALARM: After 30 to 35 seconds of no motion, TPASS®5 enters the Alarm Mode as indicated by a rapid pulsing of four red LEDs while sounding a rapidly modulated, loud audio alarm. During Alarm, an emergency radio signal is transmitted to In-Command alerting other personnel of a firefighter in distress. 2) PANIC ALARM: Panic Alarm can be activated at any time (from Sensing Mode or Off Mode) by pressing the Emergency Alarm Button. TURN OFF: To turn TPASS®5 OFF, replace Accountability Key and press both side buttons simultaneously. TPASS®5 SPECIAL FEATURES EVACUATE: The TPASS®5 evacuate function is activated from In-Command. When the Evacuate Command signal is received by a TPASS®5, the top red EVAC LED and all four front yellow LEDs will flash rapidly, accompanied by a loud, unique audio alarm tone easily distinguished from other TPASS®5 audio tones. After the Evacuate Command signal is received by the TPASS®5, it automatically transmits a receive acknowledgment to In-Command, indicating TPASS®5 has received the Evacuate signal from In-Command. TPASS®5 user manually acknowledges receipt of the Evacuate Command by simultaneously pressing both side buttons which causes the TPASS®5 to transmit a manual-acknowledgment signal to In-Command, providing verification that the user has received the Evacuate Command. Manual acknowledgment of the Evacuate Command also places the TPASS®5 back into Sensing Mode. PAR CHECK: TPASS®5 and In-Command system provides for an automated Personnel-Accountability-Report without the need to use voice radios. The In-Command PC software is configurable to allow an incident commander to periodically signal each user wearing TPASS®5 and solicit a response indicating their presence. When TPASS®5 receives the PAR check signal from In-Command, it will automatically reply by transmitting a receive-acknowledgment, the top green P/R LED will strobe, two front yellow LEDs (upper right and lower left) will flash rapidly, and begin sounding a unique audible alert. The audible PAR alert remains until the user presses both side buttons, which silences the audible alarm and transmits the PAR manual-acknowledgment signal to In-Command. See the In-Command user’s manual for a more detailed description of auto and manual PAR checks. ROLL-CALL: TPASS®5 and In-Command system provides for an automated Roll-Call-Report without the need to use voice radios. The In-Command PC software is configurable to allow an incident commander to signal each user with TPASS®5 and solicit a response indicating their presence and well-being during a Roll-Call. When TPASS®5 receives the Roll-Call signal from In-Command, it will automatically reply by transmitting a receive-acknowledgment, the top red P/R LED will strobe, all four front red and yellow LEDs will flash rapidly and simultaneously (color may appear orange) and TPASS®5 will begin sounding a unique audible alert. The audible Roll-Call alert remains until the user presses both side buttons which silences the audible alarm and transmits the Roll-Call manual-acknowledgment signal to In-Command. See the In-Command user’s manual for a more detailed description of Roll-Call. TPASS®5 Mounting and Attachment TPASS 5 is equipped with a high-strength grip-clip designed for secure attachment to a firefighter’s turnout-gear such as to an SCBA vertical strap on the upper left or right shoulder and in the horizontal position with the sound port facing out to the side, or on the right hip area. However, the ideal wearing position of TPASS5 is often best determined by the end user for ease of access and operation. ® Visual / Audio Mode Display OFF ● Accountability Key in place with no LED display.
