Top Lockout Tagout FAQs

Can I use digital lockout for minor servicing?2025-12-23T10:43:24-04:00

Yes. The Smart Safety Pro lockout tagout app includes a minor servicing module.

With this module, QR codes can be applied to individual energy sources. Scanning an energy source QR code launches a mini-procedure and changes the equipment status on the dashboard to minor servicing.

How do I return the machine to service?2025-12-23T10:32:40-04:00

When a machine is in a lockout or minor servicing status, scanning the procedure or energy source QR code launches the digital return-to-service process.

Using the same method as the lockout, the return-to-service steps are displayed one at a time on the screen and the authorized employee validates that each step is completed successfully.

When the return-to-service status is finalized, the real-time equipment status returns to operating.

What happens when a periodic inspection determines that changes to the procedure are required?2025-12-23T09:55:38-04:00

When it is necessary to change a procedure, the procedure can be unapproved and edited.

Changes can then be made to the existing procedure without having to start over. This includes editing image annotation and isolation steps.

After the changes are complete, the procedure is submitted for approval and assigned a new procedure ID number.

Is training offered?2025-12-23T09:57:17-04:00

The Smart Safety Pro lockout tagout software is easy to set up and can be used to start new or convert an existing lockout tagout program to a digital platform. Software training is available if needed, and an online knowledge base offers detailed instructions for using the software.

For companies who require OSHA training for authorized employees or assistance with procedure writing and understanding compliance, our partnership with safety consultants Rockford Systems offers onsite consulting services and expert software training combined.

How do I track when periodic inspections are due?2025-12-23T10:03:19-04:00

With the Smart Safety Pro lockout tagout app, program managers no longer need to manually track when periodic inspections are due. The software takes over tracking inspections and ensures that a period inspection is triggered every year.

The number of periodic inspections due is displayed at 30, 60, and 90 day intervals. This information is accessible via reporting, the web portal dashboard, and the periodic inspection workflow in the lockout tagout mobile app.

How does the procedure approval work?2025-12-23T10:34:48-04:00

After a LOTO procedure is finished and submitted it is ready for approval. The Authorized User can review the procedure in the mobile app, make any necessary changes, then digitally approve it.

This activates the procedure QR code so that it can be scanned to auto-launch the mobile procedure execution anytime lockout tagout is required.
