How FH Mobile works
The FH database is kept on a computer at your fire station, and is managed by your installation of FH Standard or FH Enterprise. FH Mobile applications are installed on a mobile computer such as a tablet or a laptop. Occupancy, inspection, patient care, and incident command records are then copied from the FH database on to the FH Mobile computer, creating a mobile database.
During an emergency, the FH Mobile applications display the information in a format designed for use while in transit and on scene. On the scene, firefighters and EMS personnel can enter data into the mobile database. Upon returning from the field, data from the mobile database can then be synchronized with the FH database at the station to update existing records and create new records.
Note: On workstations that already have SQL Server installed, an additional database instance is created for the local FH Mobile database.
Documentation for each of the applications in the FH Mobile suite is available in PDF files on:
