The Super PASS II™ is the first of the 'Auto On' series of
Personal Alert Safety Systems (PASS) from Grace Industries,
Inc. The 'Auto On' feature provides the next level of assurance that PASS
are not only being worn, but are turned on ‘automatically' when removed from
the 'Storage' position.
When removed from the 'storage' position, the Super PASS II™ Accountability
Storage Key will automatically pop off putting the unit into the 'Sensing
Mode' (ON). When Super PASS II™ turns ON, a series of loud attention
getting audio tones will be heard. These audio tones are accompanied by the
visual wig-wag display of four yellow L.E.D.s, indicating that the unit is
in the ‘Motion Sensing Mode'.
When there is a lack of motion for approximately 18 to 23 seconds the unit will go into the 'Pre-Alarm' signal. In this mode, the yellow wig-wag display is replaced by the intermittent pulsing of four red L.E.D.s accompanied by a sweeping 'Pre-Alarm' audio signal, which grows progressively louder. The longer the unit is in 'Pre-Alarm', the louder the sweeping 'Pre-Alarm' signal becomes, signifying that the unit is closer to the full 'Alarm' mode.
After a lack of motion lasting approximately 30 to 35 seconds, the unit will
go into the 'Alarm' mode. When in 'Alarm' the 'Pre-Alarm' display is
replaced by the constant rapid pulsing of four red L.E.D.s, which is
accompanied by loud audio 'Alarm' signal that rapidly varies in pitch. This
feature is invaluable for recognizing and locating downed firefighters. Once
in 'Alarm', pressing both side buttons simultaneously can reset the unit.
When in the ‘Sensing’ mode, the Super PASS II™may be put into the 'Alarm'
mode at any time by manually pressing the 'Alarm' button located on the
front surface of the unit. To turn the Super PASS II™ Off, simply replace
the Accountability Storage Key, thereby returning the unit to the 'Storage'
position, and pressing both side buttons simultaneously.
The Accountability Storage Key is a value-added benefit of Grace Industries
Super PASS II™. The clear Identification Window provides the opportunity to
specifically identify the user through the ability to personalize the keys
with photos, names, numbers, department ID, bar codes, etc. The clear access
window easily snaps into place to protect the enclosed information and
provide instant access for rapid identification should the need arise.
Replacement keys are available.
Super PASS II™ is also available with temperature sensing capability.
