The iOps360 Status Board Live provides mission-critical information for your Agency by providing real-time updates on Active 911 & I AR call data/responses, Schedules, Open Shifts, Upcoming Education, Equipment OOS, Live Traffic Maps and more. There are over 28 unique zones that can be configured and also a Ticker-Tape scrolling message to display your messages, National Weather Service warnings, and recurring event information. The status board can be viewed from the users by clicking on “Operations” > “Status Board” and also from dedicated logins that you can create in System Config. These logins will only run the status boards and do not auto log out like user accounts.
Status Board Styles
Styles are the slides of information that is displayed. Each slide can be customized for how long to display, and filter the information down by Cost Center, Equipment OOS Type, Views and more. You can choose from Daily Notes (i.e. Monday is truck wash day vs Sunday is Inventory day), Waze Live Traffic, Today’s Schedule, Equipment Out of Service, Upcoming Open Shifts, External Calendar Feeds, RSS News Feeds, and more.

Status Board Hardware
While any modern computer can run the status boards, we recommend the Beelink SER5 Mini PC (available below) which is a full windows computer with lots of power and can be easily mounted behind any tv. These devices can be hardwired with ethernet or wifi, and have HDMI, VGA, and USB-C video outputs.

Status Board Setup / Configuration
The Status Boards are divided into “Zones For Users” and “Zones For Dedicated Logins”. The “Zones For Users” are displayed when a User views the Status Board by clicking on Features -> Status Board. The “Zones For Dedicated Logins” are the stand-alone version that will remain logged in and show on TVs. Each Status Board Login can have its own configuration (i.e. Education based status board vs a Crew Status Board)

Viewing The Status Boards
Any user can access the Status Board from the “Features” menu and select “Status Board”. Click anywhere inside the Status Board to go Full Screen. Note: When using the Status Board on a normal User Login/Password, the user will still be auto logged out after 20 minutes and no mouse activity. To keep the Status Board from logging out, create a “Status Board Login” above.
When using a “Status Board Login”, enter the Status Board Login and Password on the main iOps360 Login page. iOps360 knows this is a Status Board and will display the Status Board. The user can not navigate away from the Status Board to other areas of iOps360.
Active911 / Cad Alerts
With both Layouts, when a new alert is received, your status board will show the call details, map, out the door timer, and responses.
Data Refresh Rates
The Active911 / CAD zone uses Push notifications for immediate updates when a new Active911/Cad call arrives. Popups will display the map to the location, crew responses, and the Out-The-Door Timer. All other zones will pull the current data at varying intervals, usually every 15 minutes. Birthdays and Anniversaries will reload once a day while zones like System Log and Users Not Clocked in will reload every few minutes.
