QUX-FDU-830Fall Detection Transmitter Unit

Part Number - 350100004 Revision – A00-000 Wireless Resident Monitoring Solutions 830 Fall Detection Unit Operational Instructions The HomeFree system was designed to monitor special needs and Dementia individuals in the care center environment. The Fall Detection Unit is one of the many unique elements of this system. The Fall Detection Unit is a small, battery operated device, connected to a chair or bed monitoring mat, that can be used to notify care center staff members whenever the resident gets out of the chair or bed. The Fall Detection Unit is positioned on the chair or at the bedside. The Fall Detection Unit is not for use outside the monitored area. Connecting the Fall Detection Unit Plug the chair / bed /Incontinence mat into the mat connection jack, ensuring that the cable between the mat and the Fall Detection Unit can move freely and is clear of any moving parts. The FDU-830 can be connected to the pressure pad and incontinence pad at the same time but not the same units at same time. Alarm Reset / Bypass Button Alarm Volume Panel Mats Connection Jack LED Indicator LED Indicator Part Number - 350100004 Revision – A00-000 Place the chair / bed mat into its required position (refer to the placement instructions for the appropriate chair / bed mat). Place the Fall Detection Unit on the chair or at the bedside. Activating / Deactivating the Fall Detection Unit Insert the batteries in order to activate the Fall Detection Unit. Loosen the screw located on the back lower panel of the Fall Detection Unit and gently remove the cover. Insert the required batteries into the battery holder. The LED indicator illuminates and a single beeping sound is heard. Gently replace the cover and tighten the screw holding the back lower panel. Once in active mode, the Fall Alert Unit automatically sends a transmission (every 20 seconds) indicating the current battery status and current location information. This status message is sent as long as the Fall Detection Unit is activated. To deactivate the Fall Detection Unit, simply remove the batteries from the unit. Setting the Fall Alarm Volume The level of the audible fall alarm depends on the level defined on the Alarm Volume panel. Holding the Fall Alert Unit tightly, press the Alarm button until the desired level is selected. The alarm level options are; silent, low or loud. The illuminated LED indicates the alarm level selected. Setting the Fall Alarm Delay The delay time of the audible fall alarm depends on the level defined on the Alarm Delay panel. Holding the Fall Alert Unit tightly, press the Delay button until the desired level is selected. The delay level options are; 2-second delay (non- illuminated LED and single beeping will sound) or 5-second delay (illuminated LED and single beeping will sound). The LED status indicates the delay level selected. Initiating a Fall Alarm The Fall Detection Unit begins to monitor for falls after the resident sits or lies on the chair / bed mat for more than 15 consecutive-seconds. At the end of the 15 seconds the LED indicator illuminates and a single beeping sound is heard. If the resident gets up from the chair or bed once the unit has gone into monitoring mode, an audible fall alarm is activated. Once in alarm mode, the Fall Detection Unit sends an alarm transmission (every 20 seconds) to the monitoring station. This message is sent until the fall alarm is reset. To reset the fall alarm, hold the Fall Detection Unit tightly and press the Reset button for approximately 5 seconds. The audible alarm is deactivated. The Fall Part Number - 350100004 Revision – A00-000 Detection Unit will continue monitoring once there is pressure on the chair / bed mat for more than 15 consecutive seconds. Bypassing the Fall Alarm Holding the Fall Detection Unit tightly, press the Reset button for approximately 5 seconds. The fall monitoring is deactivated for approximately 30 seconds (during the 30-second window, the green Status LED indicate bypass level selected). The resident can now get up from the chair or bed without initiating and alarm. If the monitored person is off the pad the FDU-830 enters to Of Mode. If the monitored person still on the pad the FDU-830 enters to On Mode. FCC Notices FCC ID: QUX-FDU-830 FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION (FCC) Part 15 STATEMENT The equipment 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. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: 1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna, 2. Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver, 3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected, 4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

FDU-830 (Fall Detection Transmitter Unit Operational Description The FDU-830 is a battery-powered device that is designed for use in areas covered by the HomeFree AMS system. This device is designed to provide two major functions: • Notification to the system that the monitored person has got out of their bed or chair. This is achieved using a pressure pad that is connected to the FDU. When the pressure exerted by the weight of the person's body is no longer detected, the device shall generate an alarm • Notification to the system that the monitored person has wet the bed. This is achieved using an “incontinence” pad that is connected to the FDU. When moisture is detected on the pad, the device shall generate an alarm. The FDU-830 comprises a printed circuit board (PCB) which includes an RF transmitter module with an integral antenna and a microcontroller that controls its operation. The FDU- 830 is powered by a replaceable 9V battery. During regular operation, the FDU-830 sends a supervision signal once every approximately 20 seconds (a random interval of 18-22 seconds). In the event of an alarm, the FDU-830 transmits a sequence of "Strong" and "Weak" signals shown in the diagram below until manual reset is performed. Each sequence of signals is separated by a randomly chosen interval of 9-11 seconds.
