Fire roll call

Setting up a fire marshal is two steps: allow the employee to log in to the fire roll call app under their mobile app settings, then send them an invite from the Roll Call tab.

Step 1: Allow fire roll call app login

1. Open Syncro Connect and select People from the left-hand menu.
2. Scroll or search to find the employee you want to make a fire marshal, then click More on the right.
3. In the panel that slides out, use the tabs along the top to go to Mobile App.
4. Tick the Allow Fire Roll Call App Login box. This lets them sign in to the fire roll call app.
5. Click Update.

Step 2: Send the invite

1. Go back to the left-hand menu and select the Roll Call tab.
2. Your fire marshals are listed on the right. Find the person and click Send Invite.
3. You can also send an invite to all available fire marshals at once from here.

The employee needs the fire roll call app to accept the invite and sign in.

Fire marshals download the app from their phone’s app store, then sign in with their normal Syncro Connect details. Scan a QR code below to go straight to the download.

Download the fire roll call app

Available on iOS and Android. Scan a QR code with your phone camera, or tap through to the store. Marshals run the roll call from any authorised phone or tablet, and it works offline if there is no signal at your assembly point.

App Store

Step 1: Download the app

1. On your smartphone, open the App Store (Apple) or Play Store (Android).
2. Search for Syncro Connect Roll Call, or scan the relevant QR code above.
3. Download the app.

Step 2: Log in

1. Open the app and sign in with your standard Syncro Connect username, password and company code.

If you do not have permission to use the fire roll call app, the login will not work. To grant someone access, see the guide on setting up a fire marshal above.

When the fire alarm sounds, make your way to the evacuation point, then use the app to account for everyone on site and mark them safe.

Step 1: Start the roll call

1. At the evacuation point, open your device and go to the Syncro Connect fire roll call app.
2. Tap Start Fire Drill, the green button.
3. A pop-up appears. Tap Start. This begins the timer.

Step 2: Mark people safe

1. Work down the list of on-site people, calling out names.
2. As each person responds, tap Safe. This moves them from the pending section to the safe section.
3. If someone does not respond, you can call them directly from the app. This only works if their mobile number is held in Syncro Connect.

Step 3: Close the roll call

1. Once everyone is confirmed safe, close the fire drill.

After a roll call is completed in the app, the results are stored back in Syncro Connect, so you have a record of every drill and evacuation.

View your roll call history

1. In Syncro Connect, click Roll Call on the left-hand menu.
2. You will see a list of all your recorded roll calls.

What the report shows

For each roll call you can see:

• When it happened and how long it took.
• How many people were marked safe, and anyone still outstanding.
• Who started it and who ended it.
