Beginners Guide
If you've never used L.A.S.S.I.E. before, please consider the eLearning.
Collar ID
- The Collar ID is a number unique to every L.A.S.S.I.E. user (Security Operative). It always stays the same, regardless of the convention and regardless of the year.
- The Collar ID also acts as a Security Operative's call sign on the radio. Get used to listening for it.
- The Collar ID also is the username for L.A.S.S.I.E. login.
User Status
The Status is a way to tell the Dispatcher (through L.A.S.S.I.E.) roughly what a Security Operative is doing.
- Status 1: Security Operatives that are "On Duty", but otherwise free, are most likely in Status 1.
- Status 2: Shifts that are considered "Standby". If a Security Operative is in a Response Team, On Duty Squad or Medic Team, they are most likely in Status 2.
- Status 3: Any Security Operative responding to an incident should set their status to 3.
- Status 4: Fixed shifts like Door Duty, etc. If a Security Operative is on duty and bound to a specific location, they are most likely in Status 4.
- Status 5: If a Security Operative wants to talk to Dispatch without priority, they should set their Status to 5 for Dispatch to answer their call if convenient.
- Status 6: The Security Operative is off duty and can not be reached by Dispatch through regular means.
- Status 7: The Security Operative is on "Official Duty", e.g. ESO / Exec.
- Status 8: The Security Operative is active Dispatch.
- Status 9: The Security Operative has a personal emergency.
Further details about Operations Status can be found under Operations Status.
L.A.S.S.I.E. Bot
Any Security Operative can use the L.A.S.S.I.E. Bot on Telegram to quickly and efficiently communicate with L.A.S.S.I.E. while on the go.
- Set their status
- Call up their schedule (specifically the next 5 shifts assigned)
- Receive messages from Dispatch
Schedule
The respective Convention's L.A.S.S.I.E. Administrator will send out a notice when Security Operatives are able to look at the schedule. Depending on the convention, they will either be able to use the Self Scheduler to pick and choose their shifts depending on preferences and qualifications or use the Schedule tab to view the schedule. Further details about the schedule can be found under Schedule
