Subject: Testing of UW Indoor Alert During Winter Break 2012
UW Seattle Building Coordinators:
Starting on Monday (12/17/12), UW Crisis Communications Team members will be conducting brief tests of the newly installed UW Indoor Alert system by making announcements using the UW building fire alarm system. The year-long installation of this new campus-wide indoor building communications system was recently completed and is now ready for emergency communications testing.
The message will be:
“This is a test of the UW Indoor Alert system. Testing one, two, three, four. This is only a test.”
UW Crisis Communications Team members will be located in some buildings to confirm basic functionality. You do *not* have to participate in these tests. However, if you do have feedback, please contact uwen-feedback@uw.edu
These brief tests may occur throughout Winter Break (12/17/12-12/28/12).
FYI–the UW Crisis Communications Team is expecting to conduct a more thorough test of UW Indoor Alert in Winter Quarter 2013. For that testing , the UW Crisis Communications Team may ask for your help to confirm audibility of UW Indoor Alert in your building.
If you have any questions or concerns about the upcoming tests, please contact uwen-feedback@uw.edu .
