Compact Range

What's Our Compact Range?

Our compact devices combine a trigger, siren and flashing light onto one backing board. This range is ideal for businesses seeking dual purpose devices due to site configuration or budget.

The compact range utilises a mesh radio frequency connection so must be managed either as a stand alone system or utilise our touchscreen control unit (TCU).

Vanguard Wireless’ innovative evacuation and nurse call systems address traditional barriers to installing and using a safety alert system: they’re simple to install, simple to manage and simple to maintain – all by your own team.

Your Options

We have four different compact devices to choose from - this is how they work.

Evacuation Trigger/ Evacuation Siren - TCU Managed

• Install several to form a mesh
• Manage the system via the TCU (and optional smartphone app)
• Anyone can press the evacuation trigger
• Once the trigger is pressed, sirens will activate once the signal is received OR once the evacuation has been approved by key personnel
• If using the smartphone app, nominated users will receive notifications and also have the ability to approve/end an evacuation
• The evacuation is ended by selecting End Evacuation on the TCU (or smartphone app) OR by pressing the CANCEL button on the device

Evacuation Trigger/ Evacuation Siren - Stand Alone

• Install a single unit
• No system management
• Anyone can press the evacuation trigger
• Once the trigger is pressed, the 12V evacuation siren on the device is activated (almost immediately)
• The evacuation is ended by pressing the CANCEL button on the device

Combined Nurse Call Trigger & Evacuation Siren

• Manage the system via the TCU (and optional smartphone app)
• Dual function - nurse call trigger + evacuation siren
• Nurse Call Trigger: anyone can press the nurse call trigger
• Nurse Call Trigger: once the trigger is pressed, the nurse call alert is sent to all nominated personnel to ACCEPT or DECLINE and the SENT light activates to let them know the alert has been sent
• Nurse Call Trigger: once someone ACCEPTS, the RECEIVED light activates to let them know help is on the way
• Nurse Call Trigger: the alert ends once someone responds or the CANCEL button is pressed
• Evacuation Siren: the siren is activated when a site evacuation is triggered by an evacuation trigger, the TCU or optional smartphone app
• Evacuation Siren: the siren deactivates when the evacuation is ended by selecting End Evacuation on the TCU (or smartphone app) OR by pressing the CANCEL button on an evacuation trigger

Nurse Call/ Nurse Call Siren

• Install several to form a mesh
• Manage the system via the TCU (and optional smartphone app)
• Anyone can press the nurse call trigger
• Once the trigger is pressed, the nurse call alert is sent to all nominated personnel to ACCEPT or DECLINE and the SENT light activates to let them know the alert has been sent
• The 12V nurse call siren is also activated
• Once someone ACCEPTS, the RECEIVED light activates to let them know help is on the way
• The alert ends once someone responds or the CANCEL button is pressed

Select What Works For You

We recognise that every business and work site is different which is why we've developed over ten products that we can use to build a system that's tailored to your needs. It's all about choice:

• Select as many devices as you need
• Select from battery operated or mains power 
• Select who receives SMS notifications
• Select who you set up as users, and their authorisations
• Select to install the system on one site, then relocate it to another site after that

How It Works

Because our systems are wireless and ship semi assembled, all you need to do is unpack the devices, turn them on, then position them within range using easy to follow instructions. You don't need a specialist - you can install the system yourself in < two hours (depending on the size of the system). Our technicians are available to answer questions and troubleshoot issues at any time.

Using your TCU or smartphone app, you'll be able to name each device (for ease of reference), see which devices are connected, set up users, authorise evacuations, accept/decline nurse calls, set up notifications, run regular system tests, and view a report of all system activity.

We provide clear instructions and information sheets for staff onboarding.

Systems That Are Simple To Manage

• Real time individual unit power and connectivity status updates
• Single button alert triggers and cancellations
• Two-way notifications
• Event reporting
• Optional smartphone app and SMS notifications

Underpinned By A World Class Operating System

Another point of difference when comparing our systems against others in the market is our operating system. The centralised management and maintenance control panel is what helps remove any speculation from system management. 

Utilising the Touchscreen Control Unit (TCU) and optional smartphone app (iOS and Android) system managers can:

• send push notifications to key personnel
• monitor who Accepts/Declines to respond to a nurse call alert
• quickly position new devices
• monitor system events remotely
