- T-Safe runs as a stand-alone product, but can be integrated with other T-Suite software products.
- Antennae data can be imported directly from T-Site to eliminate the need to re-enter data. An automated data transfer utility makes this process fast and easy.
- Saves the output of the RF Analysis (graphs and data points) in a T-Site Compatible format convenient for easy viewing in a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet or for storage in the T-Site database.
- Real-time graphical representation of the tower simulation gives a first-hand glance at the currently selected tower of interest.
- Exposure limits can be automatically calculated as data are changed, based on the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) definitions.
- Antenna Control Panel provides an overview of the current location and the ability to toggle an antenna into On or Off states.
- Convenient Pop-Up Calculator assists with EIRP and ERP calculations.
- Select antenna information from a user-defined database, or, choose from pre-defined manufacturer's data. Manufacturer data will be eventually downloadable from our web site.
- Real-time indicator signifies when a dataset is sufficient for RF Analysis processing.
- Common default values are provided for ease of data entry.
- Easily choose between English and Metric units for data input.
- The analysis model is designed for accuracy, simplicity, and compliance with the specifications in the FCC's OET Bulletin No. 65, Edition 97-01.
- All antennae data are grouped by location.
- Up to 100 antennas may be modeled at one time at a single location or tower. Any number of towers or locations may be modeled, memory permitting.
- Model supports omni-directional antennas, as well as parabolic antennas in either the point-to-point or periscope alignments.
- Run "what if" scenarios by easily turning antennas on or off in the control panel.
- All data output is stored in a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet for easy viewing, data management, or for later storage into T-Site.
- The T-Safe analysis returns percentages of the controlled maximum permissible human exposure (MPE) limits based on FCC Bulletin 65 guidelines. The model is analyzed at 10 cm increments from the base of the tower to its tip to determine hot spots at any location on the tower. Combining this feature with the antenna "on/off" button lets you easily see the effect of adding a new antenna or simply turning one off. Three highly useful graphs are produced to plot the calculated MPE data along the tower:
- Percent of "controlled" MPE limits vs. the height of a tower climber (example)
- MPE time (per 6 minute interval) vs. the height of a tower climber
(example)
- Color coded power density diagram easily identifies regions of varying power density at any point along the tower.
(example)
- The analysis also returns percentages of the Uncontrolled MPE limits based on 10 cm increments starting at the base of the tower along the earth to 100 m from the tower. The antenna "on/off" controls can again be used to determine "what-if" scenarios on ground level exposures. One convenient graph is produced to plot the data along the earth in "uncontrolled" areas:
- Percent of "uncontrolled" MPE limits vs. the distance from the tower base.
(example)
- Buttons and menu commands are explained fully.
- Contains complete keyword index.
- Powerful topical search tool for keywords or phrases allows fast access to the desired information.
- Bookmark your favorite help pages for quick reference.
- Troubleshooting guide is provided for help with common data entry errors or perceived errors.
- Sample calculations are provided in the help file.
- Contains complete explanations of the fields required for the analysis, and also those fields that are optional.
- Find and Replace feature allows user to search through all Locations for strings with many replacement or search options.
- QuickJump popup menu gives one-click access to locations in the database.
- Easy insertion and deletion of data.
- The results of the T-Safe analysis are stored in a format that allows T-Site to import all analysis data into the T-Site database at the push of a button.
- Archives allow for easy storage, backup, data transfer and data recovery.
- Consultants can separate and store different client databases, and then retrieve and operate on other client databases.
- Compact and Repair Database utility keeps the database clean and compact for efficient use.
- Password Protection keeps unwanted visitors from reading T-Safe data.
- Data Encryption provides enhanced data security on saved and archived files to help protect against data viewing using utilities such as a hex editor.
- Microsoft Windows 98 or better
- Microsoft Access 2000. If you do not have a licensed copy of Microsoft Access 2000, a copy of the Microsoft Access 2000 Run-Time is provided with T-Safe. This is not a full version of Microsoft Access but it will still be able to execute T-Safe to its fullest extent.
- Microsoft Excel 2000

The Control Panel easily toggles antennas into active or inactive states. Now testing different tower scenarios and determining problem configurations is quick and easy!
Convenient Pop-Up Calculator assists with EIRP and ERP calculations using easily obtainable data such as antenna gain, line loss (both usually available from the
manufacturer of the transmitter line or the antenna), and output power.

Backup, protect, and secure your data with T-Safe Archives. Use the archives to store your data efficiently, and then encrypt the archive for further security. Use this to easily maintain antenna systems or groups of antenna systems. Consultants can separate and store different client databases, and then retrieve and operate on other client databases.
