Recent AIRlert platform updates
Use these cards alongside the carousel below when training staff.
AI Message Centre (hideable)
Server-side AI summary rows tagged “From: AIRlert AI” sit alongside raw hub traffic. Open Settings → Display Preferences to hide them from your board — generation keeps running on the server.
RESPONDED staff button (double-tap)
Each row now carries a blue tap-strip along its bottom edge — double-tap it (default; configurable 2–6 in Preferences) to reveal the RESPONDED button. The strip's shadow deepens with every tap so carers can count their taps at a glance.
RESPOND from Message Actions
Tapping a flashing emergency message opens the Message Actions sheet with a green ✅ RESPOND button at the top. One tap stops the red emergency flash on that specific message AND writes a Staff Responded entry to the Nurse Call UI log — the carer answers and silences in a single touch.
Big green tick + forensics
Rows are decorated with a tick whenever another message acknowledges them within 10 minutes. Tap the tick for device / IP / APK / surface / latency context (explicit acks) or “Inferred from message #N” (loose match).
Commands to Hubs (offline relay)
HUB Profiling → Commands to Hubs replaces the older offline-relay GUI: queue DA1–DA6 / FIL / OFIL and CMD:FLASH so wireless sensors fire the Nurse Call Point in-room even when internet is down.
Captive-portal Wi-Fi setup
Add the AIRlert Gateway HUB to your own Wi-Fi from the on-board captive portal (FP-PDH… AP → 192.168.??.?? → Configure WiFi). Step-by-step screenshots live on the portal welcome screen.
Outage-aware Twilio SMS (server)
Scheduled maintenance_cron.php (and optional secure airlert_uptime_ping.php) drives heartbeat timing. Recovery texts summarise how long checks were missed, with a configurable daily SMS cap.
Web Push & offline shell
Browser push notifications (where enabled), service-worker precache for the LIVE BOARD shell, offline banner, and diagnostics digest dock.
Carousel gallery (portal login walkthrough screenshots)
Slides prefer img/walkthrough/atoms_* assets; placeholders appear until those PNGs are uploaded on your server.
1. LIVE BOARD — realtime sensor feeds in light & dark themes.
2. HUB status — heartbeat timing, firmware, RSSI & uptime telemetry.
3. All messages — calls, WhatsApp & critical AIRlert™ alerts.
4. Categories & SMS‑voice — mute traffic, tweak numbers & contact AIRlert™.
5. Export hub — CSV message logs plus JSON backups for every setting.
6. Deep-dive hubs — mirrored artwork from Frequency Precision LIVE designs.
Operating LIVE BOARD
- Open the app: sign in via the portal, tap AIRlert LIVE Board on the hub, or bookmark
iot_live_gate.php. - Android wrapper: install the APK from this hub (standard LIVE BOARD build — no kiosk banner strip).
- AI Message Centre: auto-generated summary rows are labelled “From: AIRlert AI”. Hide them locally in Settings → Display Preferences → Hide AI Message Centre if you want raw hub traffic only.
- RESPONDED button (staff): double-tap the blue tap-strip along the bottom of any row (threshold is configurable 2–6 in Settings → Display Preferences → Multi-tap select count; default is double-tap). The strip’s shadow deepens with every tap so you can count them. Once the threshold is reached the blue RESPONDED pill fades in for 5 s; submitting writes a Staff Ack
-NURSE_CALL_UIrow against the original message. - RESPOND from Message Actions (answer & silence flash): tapping a flashing emergency message opens the Message Actions sheet with a green ✅ RESPOND button at the top. One tap stops the red emergency flash on that message and writes a Staff Responded entry to the Nurse Call UI log — carers answer and silence in a single touch. The override is per-message (other emergency rows keep flashing) and persists across refreshes for 24 hours.
- Big green tick + forensics: appears on a row whenever a later message acks it within 10 minutes; tap for device / IP / APK / surface / latency context.
- Hub setup & offline relay (admin): use the new HUB Profiling → Commands to Hubs page (replaces the old offline-relay GUI) to push DA1–DA6 / FIL / OFIL plus
CMD:FLASHso wireless sensors fire the Nurse Call Point in-room even when internet is down. - Add hub to Wi-Fi: use the AIRlert Gateway HUB’s captive portal (join
FP-PDH…AP, browse to192.168.??.??— the exact address is on the hub label / boot screen) — see the portal welcome screen for screenshots. - Alerts & mute: header speaker shortcut and per-category mute live on the Alerts views.
- Exports & backups: Settings → Export / Diagnostics / Password tabs — treat JSON exports as backups.
- Silent hours: feed digest windows honour saved silent hours stored with LIVE BOARD preferences.
- Connectivity: offline banner explains cached shell versus live gateway — full sign-in requires the portal server.
Hosting and telemetry notes
- Rebuild path: React sources build into
php/iot_live/; seeiot_live/README_DEPLOY.txtfor hashing and SW cache bumps. - Uptime texting: configure Manage Hub Profile → Change activity / uptime heartbeat; optional
airlert_uptime_ping.php?token=…. - Web Push: requires HTTPS, VAPID keys, Composer web-push dependency (see README_DEPLOY).
- Downloads: newer APK manifests live beside files under
php/downloads/.
More help
- Open LIVE BOARD from your AIRlert portal after signing in.
- Higher-access staff use LIVE BOARD → portal sign-in when appropriate, then the AIRlert hub after authenticating.
