any chance of getting some pics of the new consoles/screens?

Not without breaking a few rules. Sorry.

Never heard of a death tap before, who knows.

A "deaf tap". Deaf people are taught to tap on ERS boxes as well as the phone to get PD, FD or EMS to respond. The dispatcher probably mispronounced it (as do most PD dispatchers).
