OVERVIEW
REALTIME CONNECTED SAFETY
What is G7?
G7 is the rst true work-everywhere, wearable, personal safety monitor. It keeps you
connected — whether it’s a gas leak, a health incident or an intruder.
Your G7 can trigger a facility evacuation, accounting for your location on a real-time
map. Should you require help, G7 delivers the instant situational awareness needed to
manage the fastest possible response to make a dierence.
G7 has your back at all times.
BLACKLINE SAFETY NETWORK
How am I connected?
The Blackline Safety Network is the cloud-hosted system used to monitor your safety.
It includes 2G/3G cellular networks, satellite networks, our Blackline Live™ web portal
application, your monitoring account and your personal safety monitoring device.
Each G7 device requires an active service plan in order to connect to the Blackline Safety
Network. Depending on your needs and requirements, there are various service plan
options available such as 24/7 safety monitoring by Blackline’s Safety Operations Center
and two-way voice communication. Contact your organization’s safety professional for
more information regarding the details of your service plan.

BLACKLINE LIVE WEB PORTAL
What is Blackline Live?
G7 utilizes the cloud-hosted Blackline Live web portal to monitor and manage all your
workers and devices.
With Blackline Live’s real-time alerting and live map with employee locations, you can
quickly locate and respond to a worker in distress. Real-time alerts show the employees
location on the map with the type of alert, enabling your team to eciently send the
help they need.
Blackline Live also allows you to create and customize conguration proles that
determine how a device or a group of devices operates in the eld. Similarly, alert
proles are set up to determine what contacts should be notied in the event of an
incident and what response protocol monitoring personnel will follow to ensure your
team gets the help it needs.
Blackline Live keeps track of alert history, calibrations and bump tests eliminates the need
to manually retrieve data logs from the eld. All G7 data is communicated in real-time.
G7 is capable of receiving text messages from Blackline Live, with the option of
receiving voice communications.
Blackline Live allows you to tailor user access depending on employee roles: employee,
supervisor, administrator and monitoring team. This ensures that everyone has access to
the right tools to accommodate their role in a comprehensive monitoring program.

What G7 model do I have?
There are two G7 models: G7c and G7x. The main dierence between them is how they
connect to the Blackline Safety Network.
If you are unsure of which G7 model you have, refer to the logo on the front of your G7.
G7c works anywhere with 2G/3G
cellular coverage in over 200 countries
to connect you directly to the Blackline
Safety Network. Depending on your
service plan, your G7c may have
two-way voice capabilities.

G7x works in conjunction with Blackline’s
G7 Bridge — a portable satellite base
station that keeps you connected in
remote locations outside cellular coverage.
G7x uses a 900 MHz radio to communicate
with G7 Bridge up to 2km away. One G7
Bridge can link up to ve G7x devices
to the Blackline Safety Network through
Iridium satellite or cellular data.
