OVERVIEWOVERVIEW
In an eXI Asset Protection system (Halo, Roam Alert e.g.) user tags are
identified by the system when they enter a field of protection.
Additionally, some tags will automatically transmit a coded message that
the system will recognize as either an alarm message or a location
message.
With the Duress Tag, the user may manually initiate an alarm message
to an eXI Asset Protection System. The protection system may be
customized to provide appropriate indications to the system
administrators, depending on the encoded tag identification.
• A lanyard is supplied with the tag for convenience.

FUNCTIONALFUNCTIONAL
• To send a distress message press the push button.
• The green LED indicator will flash at the rate of 3 times per second to indicate message transmission.
• While the pushbutton is held on, the distress message is transmitted once per second.
• On release of the button, the message will continue to be transmitted once a second for 5 second and
then will be transmitted at the rate of once every 12 seconds for one minute and the LED will flash
once per message transmission.
• The Duress Tag remains inactive unless entered into a field of protection or the Duress Message is
initiated by the user.
eXI systems are designed to assist staff in providing a high degree of safety for people and therefore should only be used
as a component of a comprehensive security program of policies, procedures, and processes. As with every security
system, eXI highly recommends regular system operational checks to verify functional integrity.
