Fire Station Display System
Real-time station dashboards on any screen
What is Fire Station Display System?
Station TVs displaying the news or a screensaver are a missed opportunity. Station Boss station displays turn any TV, monitor, or tablet into a real-time operational dashboard showing staffing levels, weather, active incidents, department announcements, and whatever else your department needs to see at a glance.
Displays are configured through the admin panel and paired to physical devices with a simple pairing code. No special hardware is required — any device with a web browser works. Multiple display layouts let you show different information on different screens — a staffing board in the bay, a weather and incident display in the day room, and an announcements board in the training room.
Displays update in real time. When a dispatch comes in, staffing changes, or a new announcement is posted, the display reflects it immediately without anyone touching the screen.
Key Capabilities

Pair any TV, monitor, or tablet to a display configuration using a simple code. No apps to install, no special hardware required.

Run different display configurations on different screens throughout the station for targeted information delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What hardware do I need?
- Any device with a modern web browser — a smart TV, a tablet, a monitor connected to a Raspberry Pi, or a dedicated display device. No special hardware required.
- Can different stations have different displays?
- Yes. Each station can have its own display configurations showing station-specific staffing, announcements, and operational data.
- Does it work without internet?
