Step 1 of 7 · Sensors
Three MA301+ sensors feel the ground.
Placed on the ground, middle and top floors, MA301+ sensors measure vibration at 100 samples per second (100 SPS).
Step 2 of 7 · The brain
EQ-Alarmer is the brain.
EQ-Alarmer receives seismic data from connected sensors and provides on-site status monitoring and configured earthquake alerts. Its screen displays real-time seismic information and alert status.
Step 3 of 7 · Earthquake
Far away, an earthquake begins.
The P-wave travels faster and arrives first. The S-wave follows with transverse motion and can bring stronger shaking. Surface waves can also cause damage.
Step 4 of 7 · Detection
The P-wave reaches the sensors.
Detection starts as the P-wave reaches the sensor. After a short validation and processing interval, EQ-Alarmer issues the local warning without waiting for the S-wave.
Step 5 of 7 · Alert
The warning outruns the earthquake.
EQ-Alarmer activates voice and light alerts. Configured relay and app connections can notify users and trigger protective equipment controls.
Step 6 of 7 · Safety
Use the warning time to take cover.
Protective action begins before the S-wave in this example. Indoors: drop, cover and hold on. Actual warning time can be very short or unavailable near the source.

Step 7 of 7 · S-wave
The S-wave arrives.
The red wavefront reaches the building. Stronger shaking appears on the waveforms while people remain in a protective position. Monitoring continues throughout the event.
