Fall Detector

 

Your fall detector is a battery operated device containing a microprocessor, detector and a radio transmitter. It will automatically trigger an alarm call on your emergency alarm system if it detects that you have fallen. You can also use it to manually raise an alarm call.

Wearing the fall detector

The fall detector can be clipped onto your belt or clothing in the upright position. It needs to be in the upright position to reduce the possibility of false activation.

Automatic fall detection

  • Green light and two "beeps" indicate that the fall detector has been activated
  • The fall detector will then monitor for between 6 and 15 seconds to verify if there could have been a fall. The green light will false while it does this
  • Once the fall detector has determined that there has been a fall, then a red light and four "beeps" indicates that the fall detector is about to trigger an alarm call (because it has detected an impact and has not been upright for between 6 and 15 seconds)
  • If the detector has determined that it was activated by error, then the green flashing light will stop after 6 to 15 seconds and the unit will revert to normal again
  • Due to the complex dynamics of falling, all falls may not be detected. In this unlikely event the manual button can still be used to call for help

Manual operation

  • Press the button on the fall detector to raise a manual alarm call
  • The fall detector will "beep" and a red light indicates the fall detector is triggering an alarm call
  • If the red light flashes on and off, the fall detector is still triggering an alarm call, but is also indicating to you that the battery needs to be replaced
  • Press the button on the fall detector to raise a manual call
  • The fall detector will "beep" and a red light indicates the fall detector is triggering an alarm call

If the red light flashes on and off, the fall detector is still triggering an alarm call, but is also indicating to you that the battery needs to be replaced.

  • The fall detector must be worn at or above the waist, where it will detect the maximum number of falls
  • You can remove the fall detector at any time. It will detect shocks, so it should be handled carefully to avoid false activation
  • When removing the fall detector, handle carefully to avoid false calls. Place it on an even surface in the upright position preferably in the stand provided
