Key Takeaways
- Onboarding requires no infrastructure installation or complex IT setup.
- Devices arrive pre-provisioned and ready for immediate use.
- Workers authenticate with NFC and begin using push-to-voice and multimedia tools.
- Supervisors receive training on dashboards, transcripts, alerts, and visibility tools.
Onboarding for the Walt Smart Radio System by weavix is designed to be fast, simple, and operationally focused. The system requires no repeaters, cabling, frequency coordination, or infrastructure installation. Devices arrive pre-provisioned, and frontline workers begin using push-to-voice, photo, video, and translation tools within minutes. Supervisors gain instant access to dashboards for communication logs, GPS visibility, alerts, and role-based permissions.
Onboarding emphasizes adoption and workflow alignment rather than technical setup.
What happens before devices arrive?
The process begins with a brief site readiness review to confirm LTE or private LTE coverage and determine the number of devices required. weavix provisions radios according to assigned roles, communication groups, and permissions so each device is ready for immediate use when delivered.
No IT builds, programming sessions, or network installations are required.
What do frontline workers experience during onboarding?
Frontline workers experience a quick and practical introduction focused on using the device, not configuring it. Training covers:
- NFC login
- Push-to-voice communication
- Push-to-photo and push-to-video (PT3) tools
- Reading and responding to translated messages
- Using SOS and safety features
Workers begin using the system on the floor the same day radios arrive.
What do supervisors and leads learn during onboarding?
Supervisors receive operational training on:
- Viewing communication transcripts
- Monitoring alerts and SOS notifications
- Tracking GPS locations
- Reviewing shift activity logs
- Adjusting communication groups
- Managing worker permissions
This training gives supervisors the visibility needed to coordinate teams and maintain operational flow.
How does onboarding align to existing workflows?
The Walt Smart Radio System integrates into existing roles, shift structures, and maintenance workflows without requiring process changes. Teams who previously relied on traditional radios or informal communication immediately gain clearer communication, documented activity, and real-time visibility.
Because onboarding focuses on functionality rather than configuration, adoption rates remain high and friction remains low.
How long does onboarding take?
Most sites complete onboarding within a single day. Frontline workers can begin communicating within minutes of receiving devices. Supervisor dashboard training typically requires less than an hour. Because all provisioning occurs before shipment, there is no technical installation phase.
Organizations with multiple shifts or departments complete onboarding in staggered sessions that align with operational schedules.
Why is onboarding faster than traditional radio deployments?
Legacy radio systems require:
- Programming every device
- Managing channels and talkgroups
- Installing repeaters
- Configuring encryption
- Coordinating with IT for device access
The Walt Smart Radio System eliminates these steps. weavix manages provisioning, security, updates, and network access as part of the managed service model.
This reduces onboarding time from weeks or months to hours.
