At 5:00 AM MDT on Tuesday, October 22, 2024, SCRAM Systems is introducing a new feature in SCRAMNET GPS that will allow Officers, Agents, and Case Managers to send audible alarms to SCRAM GPS devices for longer than the standard 30-second duration.
| SCRAMNET GPS deployments typically occur on Thursdays at 7:00 AM EST in the US, 10:00 PM AEST in Australia, and the following 12:00 AM EST (Friday) in Canada. Please refer to the official SCRAM Systems email communication associated with this release for more details. During the 15-minute deployment, you may not be able to access SCRAMNET GPS, but messages from the SCRAM GPS device will continue to be processed uninterrupted. |
Send the Audible Alarm for Longer Duration
SCRAMNET GPS users may now send the Audible Alarm for durations longer than 30 seconds. This can be useful when the client is in a loud environment, or to help you find a lost bracelet.
The Audible Alarm can be sent from various pages in SCRAMNET GPS. The Audible Alarm now supports the following durations:
- 30 seconds
- 5 minutes
- 10 minutes
- 15 minutes
- Continuous

SCRAMNET GPS will automatically send audible alarms in 30-second intervals followed by a brief pause between alarms, until the client presses the button or until the selected duration has elapsed.
To stop an Audible Alarm that has been set for a long (or continuous) duration, change the duration to 30 seconds.
The Client Events Dialog
The “Audible – Command Sent” message is shown in the Client Events dialog. The message shows the duration selected by the user.

If the client presses the button for the Audible Alarm, then an “Audible – Offender pushed button event” is shown in the Client Events dialog. If the client has not pressed the button and the selected duration is reached, then an “Audible – Offender did not push button” event is shown.
