1. Foreword
The HomeFree at Care Centers system was designed to monitor special
needs and Dementia individuals in the care center environment. The
Pendant (Panic button) is one of the many unique elements of this system.
The Pendant is a small, lightweight push button unit worn by the monitored
individual that alerts caregivers whenever the monitored individual activates
a panic alert. The Pendant is not for use outside the monitored area.
1.1. Activating the Pendant:
The Pendant is turned off by the manufacturer before shipment and must be
activated before use. To activate, hold the Pendant firmly in your hand and
press the panic button continuously for 2 seconds. The LED indicator
flashes indicating that the Pendant is working.

Once the pendant is working, it sends a status message to the monitoring
station. The monitoring station then indicates the current battery status. This
status message is sent until the Pendant is deactivated.
1.2. Activating a Panic Alert:
Press the panic button. The LED indicator flashes indicating that the
Pendant is in panic alert mode.
Once in panic alert mode, the Pendant sends a panic alert message to the
monitoring station. This message is sent until the panic alert is deactivated.
1.3. Deactivating a Panic Alert:
Press the panic button 6 times in quick succession (within 5 seconds). The
LED indicator lights up for 3 seconds indicating that the panic alert has
been deactivated.
Even though the panic alert has been deactivated, the Pendant is still
working. Therefore, the Pendant still sends a status message to the
monitoring station. This status message is sent until the Pendant is
deactivated.
1.4. Deactivating the Pendant:
Holding the Pendant firmly in your hand, press the panic button
continuously for 10 seconds. The LED indicator lights up for 3 seconds.
During this 3-second period, press the panic button 2 times in succession.
The Pendant is now in deactivated mode (turned off).
