Location Awareness devices and services are meant to augment, not replace, safety and
security measures within a plant and must not be used as the sole method of locating or
tracking personnel within a customer’s facility. Even when properly installed and maintained,
and when working as intended, location position information will only be provided every 32
seconds or longer depending on system configuration. Location Awareness devices and
services are designed to provide x and y location in a given level. In addition, structures within a
plant, including moveable heavy equipment or other changes made after the initial installation,
can prevent or delay detection. Location Awareness devices and services can also experience
a loss or delay of signal as a result of software or hardware malfunction, or as a result of
interruption or limitation of services by third party networks. Inform employees or contractors
about the features and limitations of the Location Awareness System before allowing use.
