10. Installation and Use

10.1 The Bracelet

The offender is fitted with a tamper resistant bracelet transmitter that

weighs a little more than 6 ounces. It is attached to a pre-sized strap

that comes in various sizes to fit all offenders and is ergonomically

designed to be unobtrusive. The bracelet may be worn under socks or

hose and reports conditions such as Bracelet Gone (from the vicinity of

the Portable Tracking Device), Bracelet Strap (removed or cut) and

Battery Status.

The bracelet transmitter is a wireless electronic tether to the Portable

Tracking Device. Bracelets are assigned to PTD’s through PCE (Pro

Tech Client Enrollment). Each bracelet transmits its own unique

encrypted RF signal. RF bracelet transmissions from other

manufacturers cannot be recognized by the PTD. Once a bracelet is assigned to a PTD, the

PTD will only recognize the signal from that bracelet.

10.2 Prior to Installing the Bracelet on an Offender

• Verify the bracelet is clean and that the inside of the channels, where the strap ends are

inserted on each side of the bracelet, are clean and free of dirt and oil.

• Choose a strap that will fit comfortably. A strap size should be chosen so that once

installed around an offender’s leg, the bracelet is not too constrictive and it is not too

loose. There are four standard strap sizes, small, medium, large and extra large. Special

length straps will be supplied by PRO TECH upon request. Requests for non standard

strap sizes must be accompanied by a measurement of the offender’s ankle. Ankles

should be measured by placing a cloth tape measure around the offender’s ankle at its

narrowest point and reading the measurement in inches.

• Slide one end of the strap into one of the channels located on the sides of the bracelet.

Ensure the strap end has been pushed into the bracelet channel

completely.

• • • • • • Match bracelet serial number on the back of the bracelet case to the number on the bracelet hardware list in PCE 3. Assign that bracelet number to the offender in PCE 3. Place the strap around the offender’s leg so that the channel openings located on the sides of the bracelet are facing down. This allows any water that may enter the channel to drain out. Slide the loose end of the strap into the remaining channel at the side of the bracelet.
