User Manual - EAGL Gunshot Detection System 1
Section 1: EAGL System Description
The EAGL Gunshot Detection & Lockdown System uses fully automated equipment designed to
provide an immediate adaptive response to an active shooter threat. This system detects gunshots
within deployed areas and relays gunshot detection information to integrated third-party system
components capable of controlling not only facility access but also can provide NOTIFICATIONS to law
enforcement agencies with threat assessment information. Additionally, this system can disseminate
threat assessment information via email to text to assignees. Thus, the EAGL System responds almost
instantaneously to active shooter threats by providing both access control and notification features.
The EAGL System can be constructed in various configurations to include integration options for
existing access & alarm systems and components. A basic EAGL Gunshot Detection & Lockdown
System can consist of an EAGL Server, a Gateway and several FireFly® Indoor and / or DragonFly™
Outdoor Sensors. All major components will have affixed identification info which is needed for
system configuration.

                                                Photo 1, EAGL System Server
EAGL Server provides system control through the preprogrammed “Adaptive Responses” and the
Graphical User Interface (GUI) where both system configuration and control functions are performed.
The unit is self-contained and integrates with existing Cat 5 through Cat 6e ethernet systems. The
EAGL Server receives threat detection data from Gateways which wirelessly connect 1 to the FireFly®
Indoor and DragonFly™ Outdoor Sensors.

           Photo 2, FireFly® Indoor Sensor                              Photo 3, DragonFly™ Outdoor Sensor
The EAGL System uses proven science developed by the Department of Energy. The result of this
science produced a patented technology, used in both the FireFly® Indoor and DragonFly™ Outdoor
Sensors. Integrating these sensors with the EAGL Gunshot Detection & Lockdown System allows the
                                                                                                                2/6/2021

User Manual - EAGL Gunshot Detection System 1
Section 1: EAGL System Description (cont.)
The Duress Button allows for manual input to the EAGL System as the alert or “Duress” signal sent to
the EAGL system is treated as a unique energy detector input with the resultant pre-programmed
protocols to be acted upon by the system. Actions can include access control, live camera streaming
and ancillary equipment functions. The Duress Button allows for “direct access interface” which can
be useful in many workplace environments and situations.

                        Photo 4, User, FireFly® Duress Button – Closed & Open Cover Views

The views presented above display the cover both closed and open, either not allowing or allowing
button access, respectively. When the cover is open, the RED button can be engaged. This engaging
action will be displayed on the User Interface screen with the input being treated as a threat
condition. The preprogrammed adaptive response will be initiated along with all associated
NOTIFICATION actions.

The FireFly® Duress Button contains no user serviceable parts. Only the battery can be replaced.

Although the Duress Button has the ability to provide a degree of portability, it is designed to be
attached to a substrate using appropriate fasteners via two through-hole locations on the device.

**NOTE: The purpose of the cover is to prevent inadvertent / accidental switch
function as both an alarm condition will activate along with ALL the programmed
NOTIFICATION features!
                                                                                                       2/6/2021

              Photo 5, User, Panic Station – (A) Operational State, (B) Latched, and (C) Resetting Views

The photo above shows the Panic Station device that can be associated with the EAGL System. This
device purpose is similar to the Duress Button inasmuch as providing a system input representing a
threat, but device operation is completely different.
The item identified as View A shows the station in its operational state and ready for activation. The
station may be recessed in a wall or attached to a wall or other substrate surface. Station operation
consists of pushing the bar labelled “EMERGENCY” inward, grasping the “PULL” bar and pulling this
bar in a downward motion. This action latches the “PULL” bar as presented in View B and also
represents when a signal is transmitted to the EAGL System indicating a threat condition. Once the
station is latched, it can only be reset when an authorized party inserts and operates a station key,
View C, which opens the station faceplate allowing the “PULL” bar to be moved back into a ready or
operational state as depicted in View A.

**NOTE: The Panic Station operates similarly to a Fire Pull Station whereas, the
“PULL” bar needs to be placed and latched in a downward condition to initiate a
Panic signal for processing by the EAGL System. This is ONLY designed for manual
reporting of a threat condition which is NOT Fire related!
                                                                                                           2/6/2021

User Manual - EAGL Gunshot Detection System 1
Section 2: System Accessibility Levels
The EAGL Gunshot Detection & Lockdown System uses a system access hierarchy consisting of four
distinctive interface levels. Those levels are: Viewer, Basic User, Administrator, and Integrator.
Each interface level provides tiered system access control either enabling, disabling, or offering
specific system features. Each system hierarchy level is explained below.
Viewer: This level only allows viewing of the area having EAGL coverage. There are no manual
interface functions associated with this level.
Basic User: This level provides the most basic interface features. Although this level limits
accessibility to system administration, integration and other functional protocols, all system
monitoring capabilities are operational. Lockdown and Shots Fired Testing is available at this level!
Administrator: This level allows administrator functions that are not available at the Basic User
level. This level allows accessibility to control and monitor system functions in addition to adding or
removing system Users, setup threat detection email to text messaging capability, view, export shot
(threat detection) data and enabling or disabling FireFly® Indoor and DragonFly™ Outdoor Sensors.
Integrator: This tier level provides the highest order of system access and is reserved for use by the
system installer and system manufacturer ONLY.

                                          Figure 1, User LOGIN Screen

**NOTE: All User levels, except Viewer, use “Point-N-Click” technology to enable or

3.2 – System Display – Notifications Panel, Battery and Signal Data window

                           Figure 4, User, Notifications, Battery and Signal Data screen
The Battery Life icon on the NOTIFICATIONS panel is multifunctional as it can portray sensor battery
levels either at a glance (Default) or when an individual sensor is selected within the Battery Life icon.
There are three color assignments for Sensor Battery Life indications, GREEN (31-100%), YELLOW (11-
30%) and RED (0-10%). These indicators allow for rapid visual assessment of estimated current
sensor battery conditions, enhancing sensor maintenance scheduling, and can also aid in sensor
troubleshooting.

**NOTE: Battery Life represented above is based on the number of predetermined heartbeats
FireFly® and DragonFly™ Sensors provide on a daily basis. In this case the number shown is
indicative of sensors sending the EAGL System Server one heartbeat during a 24-hour period.

When selecting a particular sensor, this figure will open. The displayed table lists sensor
identification, location information and RSSI Signal Strength making this feature another useful
troubleshooting aid.

RSSI Signal Strength is also colorized to indicate power level as being acceptable - GREEN, cautionary -
YELLOW or unacceptable - RED. If the associated sensor power level is consistently registering as
cautionary or unacceptable, it may mean there is a high level of electromagnetic interference (EMI)
which may cause sensor communication to become unreliable whether for heartbeat or threat
reporting. This condition may require sensor relocation.
                                                                                                             2/6/2021

SYSTEM STATUS: This area displays the current system status and the color bar correlates to each
“Soft Button” color. NOTE: A “Soft Button” is active when it darkens AND APPEARS RAISED after
the password is entered! In this figure, only Unlock, System Normal and Map Tools are active.
DOOR GROUP: Represents the EAGL System monitoring of predetermined access controlled doors.
PASSWORD: Allows multilevel User interface with the system. Once a password is inputted, system
accessibility and credentialing control assigned enabling or disabling features. Figure 3, Action Panel
illustrates an example of accessibility as the 3D “Soft Buttons” displayed represent the only control
features available at this User level. NOTE: This figure illustrates that the LOCKDOWN feature is NOT
available in this instance for Basic User access as the LCKDOWN button does NOT appear in 3D!
“Soft Button” controls enable features when the cursor is placed on the feature and selected. User
level determines feature accessibility. Currently, there are five “Soft Buttons”. When they are
selected, these manual intervention inputs enable protocols to place the system either in an
activated alarm condition or disarm an activated alarm condition along with asset identification via
icons.
LOCKDOWN: Allows initiation of site-wide Lockdown (V1.8 – V2.0) or the default “Adaptive
Response” door group (V2.1) using the integrated access control system. Currently, when this feature
is selected, separate NOTIFICATION processes are NOT performed by the system, only locking doors.
UNLOCK: Allows User to unlock all site-wide access controlled doors allowing unrestricted access.
SYSTEM NORMAL: Allows User to enable the system to initiate normal, non-alarm state and return
the access control system to its normal schedule. Recommend selecting to transition system states.
SHOTS FIRED: Allows initiation of an alarm condition as if a gunshot event happened which will
lockdown controlled areas and allow NOTIFICATION processes as determined by preset protocols.
MAP TOOLS: Opens a drop-down menu with the following options: Show Legend, Hide Legend,
Floor Plans, Remove Floor Overlay as displayed below. Detector, door conditions or camera locations
are differentiated by floor.
                                                                                                          2/6/2021

Up to this point, we covered multiple visual representations of the EAGL Gunshot Detection &
Lockdown System when SYSTEM STATUS was in a NORMAL condition. The graphic below represents
the visual display when the EAGL System detects a gunshot. In this example, the camera window
presents a camera view and the detector icon closest to the detected gunshot location changes to
the Gunshot Detected icon. Additionally, the camera window will open and present live video from
the nearest camera to the FireFly® Energy Detector that identified the active shooter location.

While the EAGL System is in this condition, the word “Gunshot” in the RED
SYSTEM STATUS bar will blink and there will also be an audible alarm. When this alarm condition
occurs, preset protocols are immediately enabled, and lockdown processes are initiated. System
Status bar colors correspond to “Soft Button” conditions & colors.
                                                                                                       2/6/2021

**NOTE: A new “Soft Button” called MUTE will appear on the ACTION PANEL, on the left, during an
alarm condition. This button allows the User to ONLY disable the audible alarm at the User station!
