ESV-0117-06Fall Detection and Personal Help Button

SEFD1 Fall Detection and Personal Help Button User Guide Page 2 P/N #####B© 2001 Detection Systems, Inc.SEFD1 User Guide Disclaimer Regarding Fall Detection Warning: The SEFD1 Fall Detection Device assists in automatically detecting conditions where the unit experiences a change in angle combined with a force exceeding a certain G force measurement. This reduces, but does not eliminate the risk, that an individual may experience an event where they require emergency assistance but are unable to obtain assistance on their own. There is a risk that the Fall Alert may not send an emergency signal in the event of a fall or a manual activation resulting in no emergency response despite a true emergency. A false alarm from the Fall Alert system could summon emergency help that is not needed and may result in false alarm fines or damage from forcible entry of emergency personnel into your home. The user recognizes that a properly installed and maintained personal security system may only reduce the risk of events such as burglary, robbery, personal injury and fire. It does not insure or guarantee that there will be no death, personal injury and/or damage to property as a result. Detection Systems does not claim that the Product may not be compromised and/or circumvented, or that the Product will prevent any death, personal and/or bodily injury and/or damage to property resulting from burglary, robbery, fire or otherwise, or that the Product will in all cases provide adequate warning or protection. FCC Compliance Notice This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

The pendant alerts your emergency monitoring service automatically when it detects a fall, even if you are able to push the help button on the pendant. The SEFD1 is designed to work in and immediately around your home. The pendant must be close enough to the receiver for a help signal to be transmitted. The coverage area of the pendant will vary from one home to another. It is important for you to know the effective range of your pendant. The SEFD1 is designed to detect falls that meet certain criteria. It may not detect every fall, especially slight falls that are generally not disabling. The SEFD1 Fall Detection device may also generate a fall alarm when you have not fallen. For example, if the pendant drops on the floor, the device may alert the monitoring center that you have fallen. Operation The SEFD1 pendant transmits three conditions: •Push Button •Fall •Low Battery Safety Instructions for the SEFD1 1.Please read all instructions carefully 2.Test the range of the unit upon installation of the system. 3.Test the operation of the unit in connection with the monitoring company’s instructions. 4.The unit is not intended to be machine washed or dried. 5.Do not open the unit except to replace the batteries. Modifying or tampering with teh contents of the unit may cause a malfunction or damage to the unit. 6.Use only fresh, AAA alkaline batteries. Page 4 P/N #####B© 2001 Detection Systems, Inc.SEFD1 User Guide How to Wear the SEFD1 The Fall Detection pendant automatically senses the conditions of a fall and sends an emergency alert when a fall occurs. To send an alarm that you have fallen, you must wear the pendant on your torso in an upright position. Do not wear the pendant on your arm or leg as the device may produce a false alarm or fail to alarm upon a real fall. Wearing the pendant in an incorrect position may cause it to not function properly. Suggested locations for wearing the SEFD1: •On Your Waist: The SEFD1 can be attached to a belt or the waistband of your pants. A belt clip is provided, designed to easily attach to a belt. To attach the pendant to a belt, pull the clip away from the device and slip it over the belt, or turn the device sideways and rotate it to slide it onto the belt (see below). •In a Shirt Pocket: The SEFD1 may be clipped to a shirt pocket. This option works best when the device rests on the inside of the pocket with the button facing your chest. SEFD1 User Guide© 2001 Detection Systems, Inc.Page 5 P/N #####B •On a Fabrifoam Belt: The SEFD1 can be attached to a fabrifoam belt accessory that is worn on the inside or outside of your clothing. This belt is purchased separately. •On a Brassiere/Garment Clip: If visibility is an issue, the SEFD1 can be worn underneath your clothing using a factory-installed, optional brassiere/garment clip. The clip is attached to the front of the device and the belt clip may be removed. Use the garment clip to attach the device to a brassiere to discreetly wear the pendant without compromising your safety or health. This clip may also be used to attach the device to a fabrifoam belt with a smaller profile than the belt clip. Battery Life of the SEFD1 The SEFD1 battery life is approximately 45 to 60 days. The device is always on and the Fall Detection sensor constantly monitors your position while you wear it. Low Battery Warnings When the SEFD1 senses that the AAA batteries inside the unit are low, the LED at the top of the unit flashes once per second until the battery is completely drained. The SEFD1 also sends a low battery signal to the base station which is then sent to the monitoring center. The monitoring center will call you at a convenient time to remind you to replace the batteries. CAUTION:If the SEFD1 is not in rnage of the base station when the battery is low,…
