SIMS Emergency Alert - Speed

[mark-p]

Hi All

 

We've just started using Emergency Alert and I've noticed quite a delay (approx 60 secs) before staff receive the pop-up and email.

I was wondering what sort of speeds you encounter if you're using it?

 

Thanks

Mark

60 seconds is about right - I think there is a thread in the forum discussing it a couple years ago - it also depends on when you logged in, as I seem to remember our front office ladies getting the notice at different times (front panel refreshes every minute, so if person A signed in 45 seconds before person B, they'd potentially get the notice 15 seconds later).

Thanks Tombray

Is anything else required for emergency alerts to work other than the user being in the emergency alerts list and the user having SIMS installed and logged in? Thanks, Bruce.
