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
