How To Work Your GPS Unit
Jessica R. London
Colorado Technical University Online

How To Work Your GPS Unit Before we place your unit on you, we will go over how to charge it and listen to messages. Your unit does have to be charged at least two hours a day. You can charge it an hour in the morning an hour at night. You can break it up into 30 minute intervals, as long as you charge it a minimum of two hours a day. You can never overcharge just don’t undercharge it. First, you are going to plug in the power supply into a wall outlet. Pull down the dust cover from the charging port. Next, you are going to connect the power cord to the charging port. The blinking light will go solid and the unit will make a happy sound when there is a good connection. The unit itself will start beeping when the battery is fully charged. Once you hear this, disconnect the power cord, the unit will make the sad sound. Replace the dust cover and you are done charging.
Now your officer can communicate with you thru this unit. They can send messages that say “Call your officer now, remember your appointment, pay your fees immediately, report to the office immediately and low battery, recharge unit.” In order to hear whatever message your officer sends to you, you will need to acknowledge the message. When your officer sends a message to your unit, you will hear a continuous beeping sound. Between beeps, gently place your finger on the indentation about the charging port. You are going to lightly flick it, like you are flicking water. The unit will then play the message. Wait until you hear the full message, and then flick the indentation once again to acknowledge you heard the message. If you don’t, the message will continue to play until you do. Depending on what the message is, your officer will know you received the message and will expect for you to do that action. If it says “call your officer now” or “low battery, recharge unit” you have 15-20 minutes to call them or

    This device relies on radio frequency transmissions. The device was mostly used for imposing curfews for offenders. The device was usually put on the ankle of the individual and the receiver unit was connected to the offender’s home phone line. If for any reason the offender would stray to far from the receiver unit a signal would be transmitted to the monitoring center (Office of Program Policy Analysis and Government Accountability, 2005, p. 2).…

    To allow for flexible management, this ICS is a system not a structure allowing adaption to suit a variety of applications. Each role is structurally integral and must be performed to manage the incident. The roles are interlocking allowing use by a single officer for small scale incidents (traffic crash) or multiple officers for large scale responses (major crime scene/siege). The roles are not rank specific and delegation will depend on the size and nature of the incident (QPS 2016 p.1.10). At the commencement of an incident it is vital to establish command, control and coordinate a response (QPS 2016, p.1.13).…

    On the day of my ride-along while in the waiting room I met another person who was on a ride-along for class credit as well. After newly hour of waiting I finally met my officer. The officer that was chosen to allow me to ride-along was a female officer. Following her introduction we headed out to the Charger. I was giving a walkie-talkie with an earpiece so that I could listen to the communication from the dispatch. We entered the vehicle, buckled up and started on our way. In the cruiser the officer had logged into her laptop to check her files and looked at any updates on her calls. I was informed that my experience would vary just as much as the calls that the officers went out on from day to day. Some of my responsibilities were that I had to be self-sufficient, be able to think ahead, have the ability to know where I was and most importantly enjoy myself.…

    The City of New York is divided into 73 precincts. These precincts are the basic managerial units for the operation of the familiar police patrol cars (called radio mobile patrols or RMPs) we see on the City streets. For staffing purposes the Police Department divides the day into three eight-hour tours of duty: 12 midnight to 8AM, 8AM to 4PM, and 4PM to 12 midnight. A particular police precinct such as the 26th, in which Columbia University stands, may have 6 patrol cars in the field during the typical 8-to-4 tour. In New York about 1200 cartours are fielded on an average day -- about 200 on the 12 to 8 tour, about 400 on the 8 to 4 tour, and about 600 on the 4 to 12 tour. Most cars are staffed with two police officers. The primary tasks of the patrol cars are responding to emergencies that are phoned in by citizens via the 911 emergency telephone system and patrolling the streets. Annually, there are about 10 million calls received by the 911 system. Incidence of emergency calls is generally very unpredictable, but incidents are most prevalent in the early evening hours. Emergency incidents vary in severity and importance -- ranging from reports of crimes in progress to complaints about loud neighbors. Roughly 10% of calls are potentially serious and get high priority from the police. When not responding to 911 calls, patrol cars patrol in their assigned neighborhoods, referred to as sectors. Each precinct typically has 4 to 8 sectors. "Back-office" operations for the 911 system are located in Police Headquarters in downtown Manhattan at One Police Plaza. Incoming 911 calls are handled by banks of telephone operators, grouped by borough. The operators screen the calls to determine whether or not they are legitimate police matters, and key in to the central computer system information about the time, location, and nature of the incident. If the incident was…

    Notes and Comments: Although there were a litany of errors concerning the officer’s actions and decision making in this case, there was no ill intent on their part to endanger Sinthasomphone. As police officers encounter various calls for service, officers decisions are often made based on limited information available at the time of the call. There are no absolutes in the decisions police officers make or guarantees of safety. However, this case illustrates the extreme need for revision of training and policy. The officers actions in this case although not intentional are appalling from a retrospective…

    Driving Route Observation

    The very first theory that came to my mind regarding the driving routes observation was a Broadbent Filter Model Theory. This is one of the models of selective attention, the attention used to focus on incoming stimuli. The information is processed and attended only after it is passed on through a selective filter into a limited-capacity channel. While I was driving, in the case of both normal and altered routes, I have experienced the selective attention emphasized by this theory. In other words, while I was driving my attention was tuned to the relevant stimuli, such as focusing on the passing cars, viewing the road signals, and concentrating on the steering wheel.…

    Computer-aided dispatch (CAD) is a method of managing calls from the public. This also increased communication with dispatch and patrol officers. This created more efficiency and safety for officers. Mobile computing has also experienced a growth in the past couple of decades. Through the use of laptops and the internet officers are able to receive a large amount of information in a matter of moments. This helps keep the officer informed on the vehicle’s past as well as any dangers that may be present with suspects. Through the use of license plate readers officers are able to tell if cars are stolen or possibly parked illegally. This enables the officer to screen for stolen cars much more efficiently.…

    This paper presents the architecture as well as the implementation of the system that helps the visually impaired person to navigate autonomously in the indoor environment. This method utilizes the Global Positioning System (GPS) and it also incorporates object avoidance technologies. The system applies a zigbee protocol to provide the continuous tracking of the visually impaired person. It also consists of additional components like ATMEGA microcontroller, ultrasonic sensor and microphone to provide more refined location and orientation information. The visually impaired person issues the command and receives the direction response using audio signals. The latitude and longitude values are received continuously from the GPS receiver and then transferred to the PC using the zigbee transceivers, using these values the localization of the visually impaired person is attained using Google map.…
