STATION READINESS

Your Station

One glance: what is due, what is aging out, and what needs action.

HANDLER RECOMMENDATION

Add your first firefighter and gear set.

Station Handler™ will turn inspection, cleaning, and retirement dates into one prioritized action list.

PRIORITY QUEUE

What needs attention

No readiness issues yet.

Roster

One active-firefighter list showing who is current, who is coming due, and who needs action.

ACTIVE ROSTER

Firefighter readiness

Color reinforces status; text always carries the meaning.

Compliance reflects only requirements configured and tracked in Station Handler™. Missing setup is shown separately instead of being treated as compliant.

GEAR + APPARATUS

Equipment

PPE, apparatus readiness, deficiencies, and service-testing clocks in one operational workspace.

PEOPLE + PPE

Gear

Assignments, inspections, cleanings, service life, and damage history.

TRUCKS + TESTING

Apparatus

Recurring unit checks, open deficiencies, pump/hose/ladder service testing.

Apparatus0tracked units
Open deficiencies0needs resolution
Checks overdue0unit readiness
Tests due0next 60 days / overdue

APPARATUS READINESS

Unit checks

Each department sets its own check interval. A deficiency stays open on the readiness dashboard until it is explicitly resolved.

SERVICE TESTING

Pump, hose & ladder clocks

Intervals are configurable so the record follows your adopted policy, current standard, manufacturer instructions, and AHJ requirements instead of hard-coding an obsolete standard number.

PEOPLE + TRAINING

Training

Track annual department training hours by firefighter and category without creating a second roster.

ANNUAL READINESS

Firefighter training progress

Targets are department-configured planning values. Station Handler™ does not label them as an ISO, NFPA, state, or AHJ mandate unless your department adopts and configures that requirement.

APPARATUS + LIVE MONITORING

Battery Readiness

One list: which trucks are monitored, whether the sensor is still reporting, and which batteries need attention.

MONITORING INTEGRITY

Battery monitoring ready

NO SENSORS

Station Handler™ verifies sensor freshness independently from battery condition. A healthy battery with a stale sensor is not reported as healthy.

Last sync check: —

BAY GATEWAY REGISTRY

Monitoring path

One mains-powered gateway can listen for multiple truck sensors in a bay. Gateway health is scored separately from battery health so stale data can never remain falsely green.

APPARATUS BATTERY STATUS

Truck list

Battery, sensor, and gateway health are scored separately.

DOCUMENTATION

History

Every inspection and cleaning is timestamped so the station can prove what was done.

Activity log

No records yet.

No inspections or cleanings logged.

DEPARTMENT SETUP

Settings

Keep standards-sensitive intervals configurable. Station Handler™ tracks your department policy; it does not replace the AHJ, manufacturer instructions, or NFPA text.

DEMO MODE

Show the whole app in action

AVAILABLE

Temporarily load a complete synthetic department across Ready, Roster, Equipment, Training, and Battery. Your real station state is preserved and restored when Demo Mode ends.

Your exact pre-demo device state is saved locally. Reset Demo restores it without keeping any synthetic changes.

CLOUD SYNC PREVIEW

Share this station across devices

OPTIONAL

Station Handler™ still saves locally first. Connect a Firebase-backed station snapshot only when you want another phone, tablet, or computer to see the same field-test data.

or
Cloud preview needs Firebase Firestore + Anonymous Authentication enabled.
Field-test sync, not final department identity.

The station code is a high-entropy shared secret. V1.8.0 does not yet have named user accounts, role permissions, or a permanent per-action cloud audit trail. Do not treat it as the final production security model.

Station

Structural PPE retirement: fixed at 10 years from manufacture.

Station Handler™ will not let a department extend the structural ensemble retirement ceiling. SCBA and Other items use manufacturer/AHJ-specific retirement rules instead.

Advanced cleaning: every 6 months for issued/used structural PPE.

This clock is tracked separately from the annual advanced inspection clock.

Department policy can be more frequent, but Station Handler™ will not allow the advanced inspection interval to exceed 365 days. Always follow your AHJ and manufacturer instructions.

Department roster

Add names once so PPE assignments and inspection records stay consistent.

Select who normally uses this device. It powers the My Gear view only; it does not change department records.

FAST ACCESS

QR / NFC tags

SCAN

Bind an existing QR, barcode, or NFC tag to a PPE item. After that, scan the tag and Station Handler™ opens the record instantly.

1 · Scan2 · Bind once3 · Open instantly

Camera scanning uses the browser’s native decoder where available and an automatically cached ZXing fallback on iPhone/iPad and other unsupported browsers. After one online install/load, the fallback remains available offline. NFC still depends on browser support. Manual tag entry is always available.

Training targets

Set the annual hours your department wants Station Handler™ to track. Leave a target at 0 if you only want documentation without a readiness threshold.

Other categories can still be logged and exported. These four targets are surfaced because they are common chief-level training buckets.

Records

Open the PPE inspection and cleaning activity log.

Backup

V1 stores data on this device. Export a JSON safety copy before field testing.
