Understanding SmartMan Key Codes
All SmartMan key codes will work on any SmartMan program so long as there are valid seats remaining for that key code.
A Key Code allows a specific number of people to register to use SmartMan. Each Key Code contains the number of “seats” which were purchased.
When a person registers so they can use SmartMan, they need the key code and the seat number. The seat number is issued when they register and should appear automatically when the registration is successful.
Using More than One Key Code
When you purchase SmartMan you can have more than 1 key code assigned to you at no extra charge. Once you understand how they can be used to simplify your access to information you may choose to use several key codes instead of a single key code.
Here are a couple combinations in how you might order key codes with manikins.
- You could order several SmartMan manikins and have everyone use the same key code.
- You could order one SmartMan and make use of several key codes.
- You could order a key code for each SmartMan
If you have already been using SmartMan and now would like to make use of more than one key code. Please contact Ambu SmartMan on info@ambusmartman.com.
Using Multiple Key Codes on 1 Manikin
By using a second key code, when you use the SmartMan Admin Page you will be able to instantly identify different groups who have used SmartMan.
Example 1: You might normally have SmartMan in a single fire station. Then on another day you take SmartMan to a second location to test a different group. You can have the second group use a second key code. Go into the Setup Corporate Template. Change the key code to the new one. Save the corporate template. Now when they register with “Use Corporate Registration” the second key code will be automatically filled in to everyone.
NOTE: You must remember to change the Corporate Template BACK to using the previous key code when you return to use SmartMan to your regular group. The Corporate Template only stores the current changes.
Example 2: A second way to use a second key code, particularly if you only have a few people to test or if you have a mixed group, is to have the second group enter the second key code when they register.
Let say that you have 1 SmartMan in a fire station and you are generally using SmartMan for the EMT and Paramedic firefighters to practice and test their skills. Then one day you have 4 or 5 nurses come to use SmartMan and you want to keep their results separate. As an alternative to the above you can issue each of the nurses with a copy of the second key code. When they register with “Use Corporate Registration” have them delete the last five numbers of the key code they see and enter the one you have given them. They will know that they have entered a correct key code because a check mark will appear. They can then register as normal.
Because they have NOT made any changes to the Corporate Template, when your regular people go to register, they will still be using their normal key code
Using Multiple Key Codes on Multiple Manikins
The easiest way to make use of multiple key codes is to have a separate key code on a separate computer for each SmartMan manikin system you are using. To do this simply create a each corporate template with the key code you want on each machine. This is particularly useful if you have a SmartMan installation at different fire stations or perhaps they are in different sites around a county.
NOTE: You can greatly simplify the registration process by making use of the SmartMan “Corporate Template.” Please refer to the file related to that topic to learn more.
