Instructions For Use

For Trainees:
The RSAT module interface is comprised of four information frames:

  • Visual displays an illustration of the item currently in focus
  • Information lists information currently available pertinent to that item
  • Key displays general information about the scenario
  • Fire Scene which shows a graphicrepresentation of the fire scene

Once the module loads, make sure to get the general information about the call first. Study contents of the Visual, Information, and Key windows before accessing the Fire Scene. Once the general information about the scenario has been ascertained, use your mouse to highlight various to elements of the image. When you ‘Click’ on the individual elements with your mouse, information pertinent to that element will be displayed. To access the individual testimony of the family, click on the corresponding icons that appear in the Visual window.
