DE2294RLU 1 MCT MCTMCT MCT- -- -241MD 241MD241MD 241MD RL RL RL RL Distress / Fall-detector PowerCode™ Transmitter User’s Guide 1. INTRODUCTION 1. INTRODUCTION1. INTRODUCTION 1. INTRODUCTION The MCT-241MD RL is a miniature, microprocessor-controlled personal UHF transmitter. It is designed to transmit coded alert signals manually (when the user presses the button) or automatically (when the user falls down). The transmitter is waterproof and suitable for wearing in a shower. Operating power is obtained from an internal 3V CR-2 Lithium battery. Transmission is initiated in the following cases: ! Depressing the recessed oval pushbutton (see Fig. 1). A built-in timer determines the transmission time to 3 seconds, even if the user maintains the button pressed shorter or longer than that. ! Tilting the transmitter by more than 60° in any direction. In this case, the 3-second transmission will take place after a 2- second delay. When triggered, the MCT-241MD RL transmits a unique 24-bit digital ID, randomly selected in the factory. This code is one of 16 million possible code combinations and is therefore virtually impossible to reproduce. The ID code is followed by the appropriate digital marker that indicates an “alarm” or a ‘fall-detector” event, as the case may be. A red LED (see Fig. 1) lights steadily during transmission, to reassure the user that a transmission is taking place and to indicate that the battery condition is good. If the LED flashes each time the transmitter is triggered, this indicates that the voltage is low and the battery must be replaced as soon as possible. If the transmitter is triggered while the battery voltage is low, a ‘low battery’ digital marker is included in the transmitted message. In addition, the battery is self-tested every 12 hours. A supervisory ‘low battery’ message is transmitted after detection of 3 consecutive “low battery” states. The transmitter case is hermetically sealed (no screws) to ensure complete waterproofing of the case. Battery replacement can therefore be carried out in the factory only. The transmitter is supplied with two wearing accessories, a neck cord (to be worn around the neck - see Fig. 2) and a clip (to be attached to the user belt or shirt pocket - see Fig. 3). The neck cord includes a built-in safety release mechanism. This neck cord must never be replaced with a cord that does not include a safety release.

OPERATION AND ENROLLMENT . OPERATION AND ENROLLMENT. OPERATION AND ENROLLMENT . OPERATION AND ENROLLMENT 2.1 Transport Mode New MCT-241MD RL units are shipped with the tilt (fall-detector) function in ‘deep sleep”, to prevent inadvertent transmissions until the unit is placed into service. To ‘awaken” the tilt function, the alarm pushbutton must be pressed at least 5 times in succession. 2.2 Tilt Alarm/Tilt Restore A built-in tilt sensor is activated once the unit is tilted over by more than 60° in any direction. The Base Unit will notify the user after 30 seconds, and the actual tilt alarm transmission to the central station will take place after an additional 30-second delay, throughout which the unit may be restored to 2 DE2294RLU the upright position. This allows the user to prevent an accidental “tilt alarm” message from being transmitted. If a tilt alarm had been transmitted and the unit was subsequently returned to the upright position, a “tilt restore” message will be transmitted. Note: Please refer to the POM3000 user manual for further details on this feature. 2.3 Low Battery Voltage Indication The battery is automatically tested under load once in 12 hours. If a low battery state is registered in 3 consecutive tests, a “low battery” message will be transmitted, and a “low battery” digital marker will be included in every transmission, “alarm” or “tilt”. In addition, when the battery voltage is low, the LED flashes while the pushbutton is pressed. 2.4 Transmitter Stand When putting the transmitter away, it is recommended to use the special stand included in the package (Fig. 5). The stand will maintain the unit in a vertical (upright) position, thus preventing accidental activation of the tilt sensor. Place the stand on a flat surface, then insert the bottom end of the unit into the stand. Figure 4. Transmitter Stand 2.5 Initial Test Upon press of the transmission button, the control panel will sound and display simultaneously CALLING SERVICE BUREAU... until contact is established. This means that the transmitter is working properly. Note: If for any reason the MCT-241 MD RL does not result in the above response from the control panel, please contact the central station at 1-800- 894-1428 and verify the PowerCode ID located both on the unit's package and on the reverse side of the transmitter. 2.6 Teaching the Target Receiver To provide the desired response, the target receiver must “learn” to identify the Transmitter ID code. Advise the Central Station (either by telephone or by fax) of the Transmitter ID located both on the unit's package and on the reverse side of the unit. 3 33 3. SPECIFICATIONS . SPECIFICATIONS.

American Telecommunications Certification Body Inc. 6731 Whittier Ave, McLean, VA 22101 December 22, 2004 RE: Visonic Ltd. FCC ID: GSAMCT241MDRL After a review of the submitted information, I have a few comments on the above referenced Application. 1) When a low battery TX actually occurs, the manual states that the device sends 3 consecutive messages. What is the total TX time of these 3 pulses. Note that 15.231 states < 2 seconds per hour is all that is allowed. 2) Because the device is portable, it must be tested/placed in 3 different axis to determine worse case. The report does not appear to adequately reflect if this occurred. 3) The Maximum TX duty cycle reported on page 6 of 54 does not appear to match the data provided later in the report. 4) Please explain the tile restore TX parameters (i.e. transmit duration, etc.) and how they meet 15.231. 5) FYI.....The labeling shows IC labeling as well. Please note that we can also perform IC Certifications as well. Combining both FCC and IC Certifications at the same time usually produces a cost savings for your clients. Timothy R.

FCC ID: GSAMCT241MDRL In reply to e-mail dated December 22, 2004 Dear Mr. Johnson, Below are the answers to your questions. 1. There is no “special” transmission for low battery message; it is included in the regular ones as stated in Clauses 1 and 2.3 of the User’s Guide. 2. The device was tested / placed in three different axis as stated in the test report VISRAD_FCC.16101, Section 7.2 (pages 11, 15 – 26), Section 7.5 (pages 34, 37). The emissions from the device in position “Y” were determined as the worst case as recorded in the associated tables (VISRAD_FCC.16101, Section 7.2, Table 7.2.3 (page13), Section 7.5, Table 7.5.3 (page 36). 3. The duty cycle 67.7% represents Tx ON to Tx OFF time relation within one bit: 2/3 – ON, 1/3 – OFF, disregarding pauses between bursts. The actual duty cycle is much lower. Please find the updated test report VISRAD_FCC.16101_rev1, submitted via “Upload files to this application folder”, Test report folder on December 23, 2004. 4. The push button, tilt alarm and tilt restore transmissions are provided in Plots 7.1.1 to 7.1.6 of the test report VISRAD_FCC.16101_rev1 submitted via “Upload files to this application folder”, Test report folder on December 23, 2004. (Section 7.1, pages 9-11 of the test report) With great respect, Natasha

FCC ID: GSAMCT241MDRL In reply to e-mail dated December 24, 2004 Dear Mr. Johnson, Below are the answer to your question. 1. According to customer clarification, “The low battery message is one (the second) bit of the bits out of the 36 bits stream in the transmitted message (alarm or tilt). This second bit is the battery status bit, which can be either “zero” or “one” depending on the battery status. There is no special / automatic transmission when the battery is low. The User manual is addressed to an average user even without a technical skill, which does not know or care what a BIT is, however understands what a message is. This is commercial concern only.” With great respect, Natasha

It is designed to transmit coded alert signals manually or automatically. It has been designed to be used with personal security systems such as Home Healthcare Security system. 2 Scope This document describes the wireless protocol construction used with the MCT-241MD prepared for type approval testing. 3 General The MCT 241 MD is one-way transmission device with On Off Keying modulation. It is activated by pressing a push button or by tilting the transmitter more than 60°. 4 Protocol message construction The MCT-241 MD initiates messages transmission in response to activation. The coding uses return to zero pulsed width code. The following figure shows the start pulse and bit timing. "0""0""0""1"Start 1/3 T 1/32/32/31/3TTTT T = Bit period T = 1.2 ms The message starts with a start pulse after a pause of at least 2T ( ≥ 2.4 ms). The start pulse is of the duration of 1/3T (0.4 ms) , followed by the message bits (see figure). The end of the start pulse is used as time reference for the next bit, and the end of each bit is the reference for the next one. Bit “0” is starting at 1/3T from the end of the previous bit. Bit “1” will start transmission at 2/3T from the end of the previous bit. The transmission stops always at the end of the bit period. Wireless Development Group MCT241MDRL_description_16101.doc 3/3 12-Dec-04 The messages are transmitted in repeated blocks. Each message block is composed of a burst of 6 identical messages, separated by 4 ms from each other - see figure below A pause between messages 4ms one message -44ms A block time285ms - The blocks are transmitted six times. Each transmitted block is identical and there is a pause of 300ms between block transmissions.
