PED Applications

The PED system, as a paging device, has the ability to contact individuals, groups of personnel or provide a general broadcast to all PED receivers. This could be:

  • to make contact with another person
  • to give an instruction to evacuate
  • a request to go to a different location
  • an instruction to attend to a breakdown
  • a request to bring equipment or supplies to a particular location

The PED will enhance the total effectiveness of the underground communications network. Specifically, the ability to immediately contact individuals, regardless of their location, will increase the efficiency and safety of underground operations.

The same PED Transmission System used for personal texting utilises other receiver types to:

  • remotely initiate blasts (see BlastPED)
  • switch equipment, such as fans and pumps, on & off (see ControlPED)
  • send a text message to a vehicle regardless of who is driving (see AutoPED)
