Step 1. A burglar alarm is triggered and is transmitted to the GeoArm 24/7 central monitoring station.
Step 2. The GeoArm operator then goes through documented call list procedures and calls the user to verify if burglar alarm requires response.
Step 3. If the burglar signal is either confirmed valid, or if the end user is unreachable when the GeoArm operator attempts to attempts to contact them, then traditional local police department dispatching procedures will proceed.
Step 1. A fire alarm is triggered and is transmitted to the GeoArm 24/7 central monitoring station.
Step 2. The GeoArm operator immediately calls to dispatch the local fire department having jurisdiction to the property.
Step 3. Finally, the GeoArm operator proceeds with the fire event notification procedure by contacting the phone numbers listed on the emergency call list. They continue calling until they successfully reach someone, at which point they cease further calls to additional numbers.
Step 1. A medical pendant is triggered and is transmitted to the GeoArm 24/7 central monitoring station.
Step 2. The GeoArm operator then goes through the documented call list (or if applicable the two-way voice device itself) and calls the user to verify if the medical alarm requires response.
Step 3. If medical signal is either confirmed valid, or if the end user is unreachable when the operator attempts to contact them, then dispatching procedures will occur.
