The first common way of transmitting emergencies to the Fire Department Communication Center would be 911 reporting. This is because there can be a particular telecommunicator who can be professionally active to interrogate about any incident of emergency via telephone. Text messages can also be utilized if permissible along with any kind of horns or sirens placed in the outdoors of a locality. There can also be the utilization and the application of CAD (Computer-Aided Dispatch) systems which can alert the members of the Fire Department by communicating effectively with the members of the Fire Department Communication Center.
