Automatic Call if a Fall is Detected

potentialfall,itisdesignedtoautomaticallysignalthesystemtosend
an“Emergency”reporttothecallcenter.Thesystemsprovidelocal
sirentonesorannunciations,andcanbesetuptoinitiateatwo‐way
voiceverificationcallthroughconfigurationsettings.
IMPORTANT: Thesystemrequiresadequatebatterycharge
communicationconnection(eitherland‐lineorcellular)to
makeanemergencycall.Somefallsmaynotbedetectedeven
withadequatebatterychargeandcommunication
connection.
IMPORTANT: SAFETYINFORMATION
Ifyourequireassistanceatanytime,orifyouexperienceafall
thatcausesactualorpotentialinjury,manuallypushtheCall
Buttononceanddonotwaitforthesystemtoautomatically
placethecall.
Suggestions for Best Fall Detection
Performance
1 Whilethefalldetectionsystemperformswell,nosuchsystemis
100%reliable.
2 Thelanyardlengthshouldbeadjustedforeachuser:
Thependantisdesignedforoptimumperformancewhenworn
highonthesternum(breastbone),andunderclothingwhen
practical,tominimizefree‐swingingmovementofthedevicewhen
worn.
3 Thependantisdesignedtoallowuserstomovethroughmost
routinemovements,called“ActivitiesofDailyLiving”(ADL),
withouttriggeringafallevent,toavoidsendinganuisance
emergencyreporttothemonitoringcenter.
4 Thesystemisnotdesignedtobeusedwhileexercising.Vigorous
movements,suchasjumping,ormovementsthatcausethe
pendanttoswingandstopabruptlymaytriggerthefalldetector
tosendanemergencyreport.Usersshouldtalkwiththeir
caregiversandserviceprovidersaboutthemosteffectiveuseof
thesystemfortheiractivities.
5 Usersshouldbeadvisedofwhattodoifafallisdetectedand
reportedasan“Emergency”eventtothecenter.
• Someroutineactivitieswhicharenotfalleventsmaytrigger
thefalldetectortosendan“Emergency”report.
• Ifafalleventisreported,thesystemwillprovideasirenand
spokenvoicepromptstoalerttheuserthatthe“Emergency”
callisbeingplaced.
• Systemswithfalldetectionshouldbeenabledfortwo‐way
voicecommunicationsothatuserscanstayontheline
throughtwo‐wayvoiceverificationwithmonitoringcenter
personnel.
