Tracking Tag

The Model 1980 tracking tag is part of the Tracking Boss personnel and vehicle tracking system. The device transmits a unique ID number once per second which is received by any system reader in range and reported to the MineBoss™ monitoring and control system. The unit is fully encapsulated and MSHA approved under number 23-A080004-0. The internal battery is rated for 1 to 2 years of operation before the unit requires replacement. Built into the unit is a “man down” button with two modes of operation. The first is an advisory condition activated a 1-4 second press. In this mode the MineBoss™ system alerts the computer operator by displaying the information of the asset assigned to that tag. If the man down button is pressed for longer than 5 seconds it goes in to panic mode and remains locked in this state for approximately 20 minutes. In this condition the computer screen goes red and persistently displays the details of the tag in trouble.
