C.A.T Manager Online for iOS links your gC.A.T4 to the Radiodetection C.A.T Manager online secure cloud. Recording what users actually do with Cable Avoidance Tools is a vital component of a quality management approach to prevent damage and harm related to excavation of buried cables and pipes. To facilitate this, Radiodetection’s gC.A.T4 records key parameters every second, and stores them in non-volatile memory. The data collected can be subsequently analysed using our PC application. For customers with a fleet of CATs the problem has been to manage and analyse the data from all these devices quickly, simply and accurately. This problem is solved with the release of the new C.A.T Manager Online service from Radiodetection. Use this iOS app to automatically transfer data from gC.A.T4s to the Radiodetection secure cloud. See data from all your CATs in near real-time, and ensure that all your operators are using their gC.A.Ts correctly. Use of the C.A.T Manager Online service requires agreement to a set of terms and conditions. Radiodetection makes no warranties of any kind, written or oral, statutory, express or implied, with respect to this app, including, any implied warranties or merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose other than as set out in the C.A.T Manager Online terms and conditions. This app is designed for use by businesses that have professional, trained, operators for their Radiodetection gC.A.T4 devices. Older gC.A.T4 devices may require a firmware update to function with this app. * iOS compatibility is only for gC.A.T4 produced from August 2016. Check the label above the battery compartment to verify if your locator is compatible

at risk? How many people in your workplace are at risk? Injuries are rarely caused by one time behaviours. A dangerous behaviour has usually occurred many times before the person connects with the hazard. The warning signs are there if you look hard enough. This app encourages people to look, connect and question. Collect and Analyze β€˜at risk?’ information. At risk? is an observation, data capture and conversation tool that supports the at-risk/reduced-risk concepts developed by Sodak. Read more about At Risk here… www.sodak.co.uk. COLLECT Instant data capture of observed at-risk and reduced-risk behaviours in the field, office or closer to home. Data is grouped into a weekly combined data point then graphed against time allowing the user to see trends evolve. Observation details are kept minimal to make data collection quick and easy this promotes exploratory questions rather than serving up answers. The worker and supervisor are encouraged to seek out lasting solutions together. β€œWhat kind of things are being observed?” β€œWhat are we doing that is supporting this number of at risk behaviours?” β€œWhat can we say and do to increase the number of reduced risk behaviours?” Use at risk? to structure Safety and Progress meetings. Conversation points and actions can be captured, saved then offered for review at future meetings. Data gathered offline is automatically stored for later synchronisation when connected to WiFi or 3/4G. Location suggestion through Geo-location makes it easier to input data for a specific area. Add depth by tagging; weather, area, supervisor, work type (whatever you like), to samples. ANALYSE Reveal how many people are β€˜at risk’ and use data to initiate enquiring conversations up and down the management chain. Select a date range then share graphs and actions by as CSV or PDF. Send to multiple people. Observe, share, discuss, improve.
