VOICE · SENSORS · DISPATCH
A two-way radio that runs on everything you already have — and one that hears more than people. It hears the site.
Your voice reaches the whole group instantly. No dialling, no waiting for anyone to pick up.
Temperature, leak and motion sensors raise alarms in the same channel where the shift works.
The dispatcher sees who is on air, where they are and what the site is doing — all at once.
01 · VOICE
An ordinary radio does one thing: it talks to a channel. Real work needs more — sometimes one person, sometimes the entire shift, and sometimes at three in the morning.
Classic push-to-talk. Hold the key and the whole group hears you. One speaker holds the channel; everyone else sees who is on air.
That discipline is the point, not a limitation — unlike a conference call, three people never talk at once.
A private conversation with one person, exactly like a phone call — both sides talk at the same time.
The rest of the group neither hears it nor loses the channel.
One button, and every member's phone rings for real — in a pocket, in a bag, on a night table, even with the app closed.
They answer and land straight on the channel.
A separate panic button reaches the whole organisation, crossing group boundaries. A dispatcher call goes to whoever is on duty today.
Nothing suppresses SOS — not a schedule, not a group setting.
Distance is irrelevant. This is not a radio set with a coverage radius: everything runs through a server over ordinary internet. People in one group can sit in different cities and countries — on site, on a business trip, on another continent — and hear each other as if they stood together. All it needs is a connection: wired, Wi-Fi or cellular.
You can see who is reachable before you try. The system tells three states apart, so nobody wastes time calling a phone that is switched off.
02 · DEVICES
You do not need to buy a fleet of radios to start. The phones in your people's pockets are enough. And where a real radio is the right tool, it joins the same system.
| Device | For | What it gives |
|---|---|---|
| Android phone | Field staff | A full radio in an app. Calls wake a sleeping phone; message notifications work. |
| iPhone | Field staff | The same. An incoming call raises the native call screen even on a locked phone. |
| Browser | Dispatcher, manager | A console on the desktop: map, shift roster, live channel, chats. Nothing to install. |
| Inrico T320 radio | Field, warehouse, site | A real radio with a hardware PTT key and D-pad. One-handed, works with gloves on. |
PHONE
A large talk button, the list of groups and the shift roster showing who is on air.
T320 RADIO
A 240×320 screen built for one hand: the D-pad picks a channel, the hardware key talks.
A worker with a radio, a worker with a phone and a dispatcher at a desk sit in the same group and hear each other. No gateways, no adapters.
Each person gets a printed card with a personal QR code. Scan it with the camera and you are on air — no login, no password, no hunting for the right group.
Cards print as a sheet or save as PDF to send in a messenger.
03 · SENSORS AND ALARMS
This is the part no ordinary radio does. A sensor is a subscriber like any other: when something goes wrong, it raises the alarm in the same channel where the shift is working.
The server polls the sensor over its normal interface. No firmware work — the equipment stays exactly as it is.
A device can also push readings itself, if that suits it better.
Every sensor carries its own limits: a fridge between 2 and 8 degrees, a warehouse below 70% humidity.
Set a minimum, a maximum, or both.
The alarm fires when a value crosses the line, not every fifteen seconds for as long as the problem lasts.
Otherwise people get used to alarms and stop looking at them.
Three sensor states the dispatcher sees:
"Silent" is an alarm of its own, and that matters. A sensor that stopped answering is more dangerous than one reporting bad numbers: a freezer may have been thawing for an hour while the screen still shows the last good temperature. The system treats missing data as reason enough to get people moving.
Where an alarm goes:
| Channel | To whom | When it helps |
|---|---|---|
| Dispatcher console | The duty shift | The sensor card turns red on the shared screen instantly. |
| Phone push | The group the sensor belongs to | At night, on a weekend, when nobody is at the console. |
| Telegram | A manager, a contractor | People who need to know about incidents but not access to the system. |
04 · DISPATCHER CONSOLE
The console is where the rest comes together: people, site and conversation. The dispatcher never switches tabs to understand the situation.
Subscriber markers update in real time as people move. The tooltip shows the callsign and current speed.
Speed matters more than it sounds: you can see whether a vehicle is driving or has been parked for twenty minutes. Sending the nearest person becomes a glance, not a round of phone calls.
Channels on the left, the shift roster with reachability on the right, sensors in their own panel. An alarm turns red right there, without taking you off the screen.
The dispatcher can talk into any group without joining it.
Sign-ons and sign-offs are recorded. Reviewing a shift afterwards — who was reachable when an incident happened — works the next day just as well.
Group and private messages open next to the live channel. An address, a plate number or a photo of a fault does not get lost in a stream of voice.
The map is a dispatch tool, not surveillance. Location sharing can be switched off for an individual — a contractor, or a driver in a private car. That permission is granted separately from the right to talk and to write.
05 · CONTROL
Communication on a site is not only about being heard. It is also about who may speak, who sees other people's positions, and what happens to the access of someone who left last month.
A subscriber talks in their own groups. A dispatcher hears all of them and can talk into any. An administrator creates people and groups. The owner sees the whole system.
A group can carry a start and end date. A shift, an event, a one-month contract — the channel closes itself when the time is up.
History stays readable: reviewing a shift after it ends is still possible.
A member can be allowed to listen but not speak, to write but not share a position. An observer, a trainee, a contractor — each gets what fits.
A seasonal worker gets access until a set date, and it lapses on its own. A lost device is cut off in one action, active sessions included.
Administrator actions — creating people, issuing and revoking invitations — are recorded separately from the live channel.
Group and private chats, history on the server, photos and documents up to 25 MB, video up to 50 MB. You cannot read out a serial number over the air.
06 · WHO NEEDS THIS
These situations share one thing: people need to reach each other fast, and the site needs to reach people fast. The more a minute of downtime or a missed alarm costs, the more obvious the return.
SECURITY
A shift on the ground, patrols, fixed posts. They need instant contact and a panic button you can find without looking.
RETAIL AND FOOD SERVICE
Here the sensors pay off faster than the radio: one thawed cold room costs more than a year of running the system.
CONSTRUCTION AND INDUSTRY
Noise, gloves, hard hats. You need a physical key and communication that works across the site without a conversation about tariffs.
FACILITIES AND UTILITIES
Emergency crews, addresses across town, night duty. Sensors in basements and server rooms warn you before the tenants call.
LOGISTICS AND TRANSPORT
Drivers on the road, pickers in the aisles, one dispatcher in touch with all of them.
EVENTS
Crew hired for two days, and communication has to work immediately with no training.
A note on seasonal staff and contractors. They are usually where the problem starts: people are hired for a month, and their access stays forever. Here the expiry is set when the account is created, and it lapses on its own — with no reliance on anyone's memory or discipline.
