No. The Smart Safety Pro lockout tagout app can be downloaded from the public app store onto any device running Android or iOS. It works on cell phones and tablets, and scans barcodes with the device’s camera.
For companies with strict security requirements, the app should be installed on an enterprise grade mobile computer. This is a handheld device with an integrated laser scanner. It can be locked down to disable camera, bluetooth, WiFi, and any other prohibited feature.
Intrinsically safe mobile computers are also available for performing lockout tagout operations in C1D1 or C2D2 flammable environments.
Can I use digital lockout for minor servicing?SSsupport2025-12-23T10:43:24-04:00
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.
Can I limit what users have access to?SSsupport2025-12-23T09:59:18-04:00
Yes. The Smart Safety Pro lockout tagout software has built in user permission groups to ensure users only perform functions that they are authorized to do.
The user groups allow or block the ability to create procedures, approve procedures, perform periodic inspections, perform machine lockout tagout events, or run reports.
Admins have complete control over who is given access to various software. This ensures that only authorized employees have the ability to use the lockout tagout software to perform a digital lockout.
Do I need to print and file periodic inspection records?SSsupport2025-12-23T09:56:11-04:00
No. The lockout tagout software portal stores all periodic inspections in the database permanently. Periodic inspection reports can be run on-demand as needed.
During an OSHA audit, periodic inspection data can be produced for any equipment criteria and any date range at the click of a button.
How do I create a procedure report to attach to the machine?SSsupport2025-12-23T10:41:32-04:00
With the Smart Safety Pro lockout tagout app, a procedure is written at the machine using the 100% mobile procedure builder. Once complete, it is available for viewing on the main procedure dashboard.
The steps of the procedure are automatically compiled into a beautiful custom branded report, and include Scope, Purpose, and Authorization; application steps, equipment pictures, energy identification and isolation instructions, and return to service steps.
No extra formatting is required – simply press the print button and attach the report to each machine.
What is the benefit of mobile lockout tagout?SSsupport2025-12-23T10:33:53-04:00
Mobile lockout tagout software offers visibility and insights into machine status that are not possible with a manual lockout tagout program. When a machine is locked out, the authorized employee scans a QR code, views each step of the procedure, and confirms on the screen that the step was completed successfully.
This offers two major benefits. First, it ensures that the procedure is followed correctly and includes documentation validation. Next, it changes the status of the equipment to “locked out”.
The Smart Safety Pro equipment dashboard displays real-time operating status of all equipment so that program managers verify details without walking out to the machine.
