AlertLink gives your G7c, G7x, and EXO devices the ability to share notifications with other devices during high urgency events. With the feature enabled, G7c and EXO device users will be notified if a nearby device has gone into alert, which keeps your workers more informed of their surroundings and gives them the ability to come to the aid of team members when needed. It is important to note that G7x devices can trigger AlertLink messages but cannot receive them at this time.

AlertLink is included with self-monitored and Blackline-monitored service plans at no additional cost. It is not included with the System Access service plan. If you are on a System Access plan and would like to use AlertLink, please contact our Technical Support team to learn how to upgrade your plan.

While AlertLink is not a replacement for monitoring, the feature does provide an additional layer of protection by informing nearby workers of an incident immediately and facilitating a faster on-site response.

Starting July 15, you can now choose what kind of events trigger each port using your EXO's Blackline Live configuration profile. Ports A and B can individually be configured to trigger on one or more of the following:

• Incoming text message or mass notification

• Incoming AlertLink notification

• On-board Low gas threshold event

• On-board High gas threshold event

EXO ports can be configured to apply or remove power from connected accessories when an event occurs. In your EXO configuration profile in Blackline Live, you can also reverse the normal switch behavior.
