NY5MAA01Remote Pendant for healthcare system

myActiveAlert User Instructions Version 1.0b April 27, 2015 Mytrex, Inc. 10321 Beckstead Lane South Jordan, UT 84095 2 | P a g e Introduction The myActiveAlert is a personal emergency response pendant manufactured by Mytrex, Inc. that features patented and clinically validated automatic fall detection algorithms developed by BioSensics LLC. Additional key features and benefits of the BioSensics technology include patented algorithms designed to reduce false alarms, monitoring the number of steps taken, and notifying providers when the pendant is not worn by the subscriber. The myActiveAlert also incorporates a water resistant HELP button to request help at the press of a button. The myActiveAlert may be operated in one of two modes: Basic and Enhanced. In either mode the device may be programmed to transmit a periodic supervisory or heartbeat signal to the Mytrex personal emergency response system (PERS); such as an MXD or MXD3G. This transmission enables the base unit to monitor the radio link, battery condition and activity level of the user. Detecting a Fall When the algorithms determine a fall may have occurred, the LED begins to flash slowly. A few seconds later the LED will flash quicker. Within a few seconds the LED will turn on steady and a FALL ALERT signal is transmitted to the PERS. A red LED indicates low battery and green indicates a good battery. During the FALL ALERT signal transmission, the LED will always illuminate steady for approximately two seconds. Note: Due to the many types of falls that can occur, the user should always press the HELP button whenever help is needed and not rely solely upon the determination of the fall detection algorithms. See “Other Notices”. Sending a HELP ALERT Signal To send a HELP ALERT signal to the PERS, press and release the HELP button on the face of the myActiveAlert. The signal for help is transmitted as soon as the button is pressed and will continue to transmit for an additional two seconds after releasing the HELP button. The LED will illuminate for the entire duration of the signal transmission according to Table 1. Clearing the FALL ALERT When the algorithms determine a fall may have occurred, the LED begins to flash slowly. While the LED is flashing, the algorithms continue to monitor movement. Transmission of the FALL ALERT signal is prohibited and the LED is turned off if the algorithms determine the user has taken three steps. Once the LED turns on steady, the FALL ALERT signal cannot be cancelled. Battery Monitoring The myActiveAlert periodically monitors the internal battery voltage. If the voltage is below a certain threshold, a LOW BATTERY signal is transmitted to the PERS. Once a low battery is reported, the myActiveAlert should be replaced within two weeks. 3 | P a g e Button Only Mode The myActiveAlert is shipped in the Button Only Mode. Movements are not monitored (fall detection disabled) in this mode which greatly extends the battery life. However, pressing the HELP button on the face of the myActiveAlert will cause a HELP ALERT signal to be transmitted. The signal is transmitted for approximately two seconds after the button is released and the LED flashes slowly. Green indicates a good battery and red indicates a low battery. Basic Mode This mode of operation includes the functionality of the HELP button, automatic fall detection, battery monitoring, and if desired, supervisory or heartbeat transmissions. To enable the Basic Mode of operation, the HELP button must be pressed 7 times within a 3-second period. Once the Basic mode is enabled, the LED will illuminate steadily when the HELP button is pressed as indicated in Table 1. NOTE: If supervisory (heartbeat) transmissions are enabled, it is important that your dealer activates the supervisory mode in the PERS as well. Enhanced Mode This mode includes all of the same functionalities of the basic mode. In addition, the activity of the subscriber (number of steps taken) and non-compliance alert signals (subscriber not wearing the myActiveAlert) may be transmitted to the PERS. To enable the Enhanced Mode of operation, the HELP button must be pressed 5 times within a 3- second period. Once the Enhanced mode is enabled, the LED will flash quickly when the HELP button is pressed as indicated in Table 1. NOTE: If supervisory (heartbeat) transmissions are enabled, it is important that your dealer activates the supervisory mode in the PERS as well. LEDs The myActiveAlert has a red and a green LED to indicate various modes of operation as shown in Table 1. The indicated LED status is applicable to both the Basic and Enhanced modes of operation. Table 1: LED Status definitions Green Battery Good Steady Basic Mode Flash Quickly Enhanced Mode Red Battery Low Steady Basic Mode Flash Quickly Enhanced Mode Battery Life Expectancy The battery of the myActiveAlert is not replaceable. The life expectancy is variable and is dependent upon which features are enabled and the operating parameters chosen. In addition, the higher the activity level of the subscriber, the lower the battery life expectancy. 4 | P a g e Specifications  Dimension: 2.165” x 1.468” x 0.603”  RF Transmission Frequency: 418 MHz  Operating Temperature: -10ºC to 60ºC  Battery Type: CR2450 Lithium  Battery Life: 1 year or more (2 years in Basic non-supervised mode)  Battery Voltage: 3.0V  FCC ID: NY5MAA01  IC: 9663A-MAA01 FCC and Industry Canada Notice  This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules and Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s).
