ImpactManager RF

ShockWatch ImpactManager RF is designed for companies wanting to safeguard their staff, equipment and facilities in areas where forklift trucks are in use. The system collects a range of data regarding use of the truck and provides a real-time link between the forklift truck in the plant and a PC in the office. With the ShockWatch ImpactManager RF organisations can now seamlessly integrate the system into their existing network and it is currently the only system on the market that conforms completely to the 802.11 standard, without the need for modification.

ShockWatch ImpactManager RF is attached to the forklift truck and transmits event data via a wireless network to the accompanying software. Users can monitor an unlimited number of trucks and these can be programmed to send data straight away or to wait until a number of pre-defined events have occurred. However, with incidents that have important safety implications, such as impacts, then an alert is sent immediately.

For managers, ShockWatch ImpactManager RF provides a means to control access and identify specific users. This means that only trained operators will have access for use. By coding a simple to use iButton operator’s key, only authorised key holders will be able to activate the ignition system. The PC software will also log details including relevant certifications held and will notify the manager when these are due to expire. Maintenance can also be easily scheduled using the software, with alerts being issued when required.
