METHOD OF ACTIVATING A SUPPLEMENTAL VISUAL WARNING SIGNAL BASED ON FREQUENCY EMITTED FROM A GENERATOR OF A PRIMARY AUDIBLE WARNING SIGNAL
First Claim
1. A system for signaling users, comprising:
- a control device;
a transceiver electrically communicating with the control device, the transceiver having a specified frequency;
a first mobile signal device being activated by a first user to indicate a predetermined event, the first mobile device electrically communicating with a first transmitter having a selectable signal frequency, the first transmitter electrically communicating with the transceiver using the specified frequency;
a second signal device including a second receiver for receiving an activation signal from the transceiver, the second receiver electrically communicating with the transceiver using the specified frequency being selected by the control device, the second signal device being activated by the activation of the first mobile signal device using the transceiver for alerting another user.

Abstract
A system and method for signaling users including a control device electrically connected to a transceiver. The transceiver has a specified frequency. A first mobile signal device being activated by a first user and electrically communicating with a first transmitter having a selectable signal frequency. The first transmitter electrically communicates with the transceiver using the specified frequency. A second signal device includes a second receiver for receiving an activation signal from the transceiver. The second receiver electrically communicates with the transceiver using the specified frequency. The second signal device is activated by the activation of the first mobile signal device using the transceiver for alerting other persons.
