Entering a Chart
in
emsCharts Mobile v3!
Version 3.1
emsCharts Mobile
Welcome to emsCharts Mobile Training:
How to enter a Chart in the Mobile v3
Remember:
emsCharts Mobile is not emsCharts! This is a tool to
be used in the field to allow crews to enter desired
data to be uploaded to emsCharts.com. The crew
will then complete/lock the chart on emsCharts.com.
Charts cannot be locked on emsCharts Mobile.
emsCharts Mobile
Because the Chart is not locked on emsCharts Mobile,
there are no strict guidelines as to what must be
completed there. All validation is completed on the
emsCharts.com version after upload.
emsCharts Mobile may be used as simply a note taker
or almost the entire Chart may be entered and
locked when uploaded. This process is at the
discretion of the user.
emsCharts Mobile
On the next few slides we will show what is located on
each page.
– You may enter as much or as little as you wish! Once the
chart is uploaded to emsCharts.com, it can then be edited
– All Final Validation is done on emsCharts.com
– Electronic Crew Signatures are obtained on
emsCharts.com
– Charts will be locked on emsCharts.com
– Final Charts are printed from emsCharts.com
– Draft/Incomplete Charts may be printed on
