Introducing Brady Lockout PRO

Welcome to Lockout PRO

Brady Lockout PRO allows you to create and implement a thorough OSHA compliant Lockout-Tagout program

throughout your facility with ease. Now you can work faster and more efficiently than ever before thanks to the

automated features provided by Lockout PRO. Lockout PRO uses the conventions that you are already familiar

with so that you can quickly begin creating your machine-specific lockout-tagout procedures using a

comfortable, familiar interface.

A few of the highlights within Brady Lockout PRO are:

• Separate files – Your machine-specific procedures are saved as separate files with all images embedded within. This

allows you to open, save, move, and otherwise use the files in the same manner that you are used to with other

Windows programs.

• Network friendly - You can save your procedure files onto shared network drives allowing anyone with Lockout PRO

to access them.

• Integration with existing systems – The use of separate files allows you to integrate the files with any Windows-

based program that can link to external files for opening and/or printing, including most modern CMMS, ERP, and

document management systems.

• User friendly – Lockout PRO is very easy to learn and use because it uses standard Microsoft Windows conventions

throughout. This means that you will immediately be comfortable with the navigation and use of the program.

• Self-Contained – All functionality needed to create graphical machine-specific Lockout-Tagout procedures is built-in,

including image editing and modification.

• Customizable – All text, titles, and procedure format settings can be customized and defined by the end user. This

included the available energy sources, predefined notes, and devices.

• On-screen tutorial – Lockout PRO features a tutorial that will walk you through the creation of a lockout-tagout

procedure. This tutorial will launch automatically the first time that you use the program, and is always accessible from

the Help menu.

regulation 1910.147 - The control of hazardous energy (lockout/tagout).

Corporate Policy – This section contains a generic corporate policy on lockout-tagout that you can use as a

show the proper application of each device.

Machine-Specific Procedures – This section provides you with a robust toolset that completely automates the

creation of the machine-specific procedures that are required for every machine within your facility that has

more than one energy source.

Creating procedures

File System

The machine-specific procedures that are created by Lockout PRO are saved as stand-alone files using the .lop

file extension. These files contain the entire procedure, including the images that you have inserted within them.

These files can be saved to any drive available to your computer. They can be moved, copied, deleted, etc. in the

same manner as any other Windows file.

Creating a new procedure

To create a new procedure, select the New command from the File menu on the Menu Bar, and then select the

format that you would like to use for the procedure, either Short Form or Long Form. You can also click on the

New File icon in the Toolbar. This will create a new procedure using the same form that you worked with last.

The procedure will be opened in a new window and a tab for it will be added to the Window Tab Bar.

- 7 -

Opening an existing procedure

To open an existing procedure, select the Open… command from the File menu on the Menu Bar. You can also

click on the Open File icon in the Toolbar. The program will present you with the Open File dialog box that

allows you to browse to the correct drive, folder, and file location and select the file you wish to open. Once you

have located the file that you wish to open, click it and then click the Open button.

The procedure will be opened in a new window and a tab for it will be added to the Window Tab Bar.

Saving a procedure

To save the procedure currently being viewed, select the Save command from the File menu on the Menu Bar.

You can also click on the Save File icon in the Toolbar. If the procedure has not previously been named, you

will be presented with the Save As dialog box. Select the location and filename that you would like to save the

procedure as and click the Save button.

If the procedure has been previously named, the program will save the changes to the file.

Saving a procedure with a new name

To save the current procedure with a new filename, select the Save As… command from the File menu on the

Menu Bar. You will be presented with the Save As dialog box. Select the location and filename that you would

like to save the procedure as and click the Save button.

Deleting a procedure

Lockout PRO files are deleted in the same manner as every other Windows file. To delete a procedure file,

locate it using the My Computer or Windows Explorer programs. Select the file and press the Delete key.

Import Lockout PRO v1.0 Procedures

You can import and open a single Lockout PRO v1.0 procedure, or convert all v1.0 procedures in a selected

directory.

To import and open a specific v1.0 procedure, select Import > v1.0 File from the File menu. You will be

presented with a file selection dialog box. Select the v1.0 .blp file that you wish to open and click the Open

button. The procedure will be converted and opened.

the File menu. You will be presented with a folder selection dialog box. Select the folder that contains the v1.0

.blp files that you wish to convert and click the OK button. The files will be converted and a dialog showing the

conversion progress will be displayed.

Procedure Layout

Machine-specific procedures can be created using either of two user-friendly graphical formats, the Short Form

and the Long Form.

Short Form Procedure Format

The Short Form layout provides a page-based organization of the Lockout process. By organizing the

information within the context of the available space on each page, the resulting procedure is concise and

efficient, but the space constraints may limit the amount of information that can be entered for each energy

source. If you do not need to provide extensively detailed information or use more than two images for one or

more of the lockout steps, the Short Form is a good choice.

Layout

The Short Form is comprised of the Header, Images, Energy Source Table, and Footer.

Header – This section contains information identifying the machine that the procedure applies to, the number of

lockout points on the machine, any special notes, and the Lockout Application Process.

Images – This section contains one or two images of the machine and the energy source labels identifying the

correct lockout points.

Energy Source Table – This section contains the steps necessary to lockout each individual energy source.

Footer – This section contains the Lockout Removal Process, the energy source color and abbreviation legend,

and the current and total page numbers.
