1.2 HazSim LAN
The LAN creates the closed wireless network which connects the server with one or many
HazSim handhelds. The LAN will work up to a one thousand foot range, about the length of
three football fields, depending on obstructions (see Maximizing Range section 5). The SSID
for the HazSim LAN is ‘HazSim Extended’. It will NOT allow access to the internet, this
network is for the training system only. Network setting should not be changed and are
password protected. It is not recommended to attempt to connect to another network.
Reach out to HazSim for advanced technical support.
1.3 HazSim Handheld
The HazSim device, once connected to the server via the LAN, can become any meter
chosen by the instructor on the server. The HazSim has a power on/off button as well as A
and B ‘answer’ buttons. The unit also has a touch screen which can be used in lieu of the
buttons for answering questions as well as used to confirm power off of the unit. The
HazSim also includes a confined space probe attachment point.
