This article demonstrates how to change the countdown timer on WorkerSafety Pro.
Changing the countdown timer is helpful when there is a prevalence of false alarms. Workers can change the countdown timer to allow themselves enough time to interact with WorkerSafety Pro before the alarm is triggered.
Note
You can only change the countdown timer for Non-SOS alarms, i.e, Fall Detection, Worker Down, and Check-ins.
To change the countdown timer:
1. Open WorkerSafety Pro.
2. Tap the profile icon.
3. Tap "Countdown Settings"
4. Use the slider to select any time between 30 seconds and 5 minutes. In the example below, the worker has changed the countdown timer to 3 minutes.
5. Tap "Back" until you get back to the home screen of WorkerSafety Pro.
6. The countdown timer has been reset. Each time a non-sos alarm is triggered, the worker will now have 3 minutes to interact with it until emergency contacts are notified.
Note: This does not apply to SOS alarms, which will always have an 8-second countdown.
