INTRODUCTION
WELCOME TO LINK–MOBILE
Care Innovations™ created Link–Mobile to help people
summon and receive help within the early minutes after a
life-threatening event like a stroke, car accident, heart attack
or fall. Timely response can mean recovering faster and
suffering less severe complications.
Link–Mobile pairs a cellular Communications Clip to
a discreet Wristband. The Wristband, which may be
comfortably worn day and night, can be set to manually
or automatically trigger a notification to be sent to friends,
neighbors, and loved ones or directly to our 24-hour a day
Emergency Response Center. The Communications Clip is
a pocket-sized device, so it is easy to take along when you
leave home. Carry it in a purse, wear it on a belt, or clip it
to a car’s seatbelt when driving. In the event of an incident,
your notification, along with your location, will be sent
automatically to the Emergency Response Center, and a text
message and email will be sent to listed personal emergency
contacts, enabling the Communications Clip to receive calls.
In addition to being ready to request help in an emergency,
Wearers can view their daily activity and set personal goals
to encourage healthful movement and other activities.
Immediate access to help minimizes the concern of not
being able to reach out in an emergency.

BEFORE YOU START
INITIAL SET-UP
Prior to using your Link–Mobile system for the first time, it
is important to charge all components fully. This will take
approximately three hours.
To charge the system, plug one end of the white charging
cable into the Dock, and insert the other end of the cable
into the AC power adaptor. Plug the AC power adaptor
into an electrical outlet.
To charge the components of your Link–Mobile system, first
place the Wristband on the charging Dock, then place the
Communications Clip on the charging Dock, as shown in
the photo. The LEDs in the Wristband and Communications
Clip will briefly light green when properly seated.
When you are at home, the Clip can be left on the Dock
and will always be charging. The Night Mode button on the
Dock allows you to dim the LEDs at night. Should the Clip
be misplaced while in the range of the Dock, pressing the
Find Clip button on the dock will cause the Clip to send out
Clip left on Dock will be kept
fully charged.
Wristband and Clip LEDs
will briefly light green when
properly seated, blink green
while charging, then be solid

BEFORE YOU START
a locator tone. There is a battery level indicator on the Dock
in front of each component’s charging slot. The battery icons
on the Dock show how much charge your components have,
even when the components are not attached.
Night Mode button turns off charging and
battery indicators on Dock and attached
devices (does not disable Panic or Find LEDs).
All battery level indicator bars will be green and will no
longer roll when the system is fully charged.
ACTIVATING
To set up your Link–Mobile system, go to www.Link-Mobile.com
or call our Customer Care center at 855-885-CARE (2273). To
complete the set up, you will need your unique Set ID, which is
located on the bottom of your charging Dock.
Online Set-Up: If using the website to set up your system,
follow the on-screen prompts. When you call to test your
system, you will be asked to confirm your profile and settings.
Phone Set-Up: When calling the Customer Care center, a
representative will walk you through the set-up steps
including fully testing your system.
BEFORE YOU START
FITTING THE WRISTBAND
The waterproof Wristband is so comfortable it can be
worn around the clock, even when you sleep. To get the
most comfortable and stylish fit, you can customize its
size. Before fitting your Wristband, you will need to have
the following items available to you: scissors, Phillips head
screwdriver, and pencil or pen. Begin by cutting the paper
ruler from the bottom of the Quick Start Guide.
CAUTION: Before cutting the Wristband, confirm that it
works by completing your initial set-up and testing with the
Customer Care center.
1. To get a measurement for the size of your Wristband,
wrap the paper ruler around your wrist and note the inch
measurement that best indicates a loose, comfortable
fit. Your Wristband should fit snugly enough so you feel
the vibrations when the alert is activated without having
it feel too tight. Because your wrist size can fluctuate
throughout the day due to changes in temperature, your
circulation, and the medications you take, you need to
experiment a bit.
CLOS E
OPEN
MARK
BEFORE YOU START
2. Set the paper ruler on a flat surface and place the
Wristband next to it. Ensure that the center of the
Wristband is aligned with the middle of your paper ruler
measurement. Mark both ends of your measurement
onto the Wristband (using a pen or pencil) to indicate
where you will need to cut.
5. Once you have determined the right fit for you, press
down the locking tabs on the clasps until they tightly
bite into the Wristband. (You may use a screwdriver as
leverage for this step.)
6. The two clasps on the Wristband connect magnetically.
To undo it, push on the two dots and twist the clasps.
3. To best customize the fit of your Wristband, cut just a
little off each end at first and wear it at least twenty-four
hours. Remember, if it’s too big, you can always trim it
shorter, but you can’t add length back.
4. Fit a clasp onto each end of the Wristband strap with the
plain side facing outwards. While you’re experimenting
with the fit, simply attach the silver clasps without
pressing down on the locking tabs.
BEFORE YOU START
TESTING COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE
WRISTBAND AND THE COMMUNICATIONS CLIP
TESTING COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE CLIP
AND THE MOBILE PHONE NETWORK
For proper operation, your Wristband needs to be in range
of the Communications Clip. This works best at distances
less than 150 feet in open air, but this range can diminish
based on obstacles such as
walls, doors, construction
materials, and other
electronic systems.
The Link–Mobile Communications Clip needs
a cellular network signal to operate properly.
To test cellular network strength, press and
hold either button on the Clip for one second
or until a short and long vibration pulse can be felt.
One Second
To test if the Wristband is in range of the
Clip, press and hold one button (either) on
the Wristband for one second.
If you are within range of the Communications Clip, the
Wristband will vibrate once and the LED will flash green
three times. If the Wristband is too far from the Clip, the
Wristband LED will flash red and an Alert will be sent to
your emergency contacts. If the LED flashes red when in
close proximity to the Clip, refer to the Troubleshooting
Section for resolution.
10
Within five minutes, the LED will flash orange where the
number of flashes indicates relative cellular signal strength:
Three flashes: strong signal
Two flashes: average signal
One flash: weak, but usable signal
If the LED flashes red, refer to the Troubleshooting
Section.
USING THE LANYARD AND KEY RING
There are two methods for attaching the lanyard:
A) looping the lanyard connector thread through the
Clip’s top peg and B) using the quick attach Accessory
USING LINK–MOBILE
Plate. To use the
Communications
Clip’s peg, loop the
lanyard line around
the peg and back over itself as shown.

To attach your keys to the Communications Clip, simply
pinch the Clip open and insert the Accessory Plate, tab first.
When you return from your outdoor adventure, remove the
Accessory Plate from the Clip and place the Clip back on
the Dock to charge.
USING LINK–MOBILE TO SEND
AN ALERT FOR HELP
Link–Mobile can send an Alert for help
in two ways:
U Manual — The Wearer intentionally
pinches the Wristband or Clip buttons
to request help
11
USING LINK–MOBILE
U Automatic — The Link–Mobile Wristband senses a
possible fall
3. Directly alerts the Emergency Response Center of your
need for assistance — (Professional)
MANUAL ALERT
* When your emergency contact receives this SMS, message rates
may apply.
You can send a request for help by squeezing both buttons
at the same time on either the Communications Clip or
the Wristband. In acknowledgement of your request,
both the Clip and Wristband vibrate and the LED pulses
blue continuously. The Clip sends an Alert signal to the
Help Center computers. Depending on your service plan
(Personal, Personal with Escalation or Professional), this
Alert signal either:
** Acknowledgments are performed by emergency contacts who
follow a link in the SMS or Alert email within the time allowed.
1. Sends an SMS* and email to your designated emergency
contacts — (Personal)
2. Sends an SMS and email to your designated
emergency contacts and then waits four minutes for an
acknowledgement** before escalating to the Emergency
Response Center — (Personal with Professional
Escalation)
12
Personal

Professional Escalation
USING LINK–MOBILE
TYPES OF ALERTS
Your Link–Mobile system sends Alerts when the Wearer
manually requests help by squeezing the buttons on the
Wristband or Communications Clip or when the Wristband
senses movement indicative of a fall.
Clip or Wristband Alert — When the Emergency
Response Center Agent sees an Alert, the Agent will call
the Wearer via the Communications Clip to ascertain their
needs and then seek to arrange the appropriate assistance.
Following the Wearer’s predefined sequence, emergency
contacts will be notified by phone. If help is needed from
local emergency service providers (police, ambulance, fire,
EMT), the Agent will contact them on behalf of the Wearer.
If the Emergency Response Center Agent cannot make
contact with or hear the Wearer, a call will be made
to the emergency contacts in the order listed in the
Wearer’s profile. When the call to the Communications
Clip has ended, the Link–Mobile Communications Clip
will automatically be reset by the Help Center computers,
ready to work again when needed. A tone on the Clip will
indicate the voice communications session has ended.
Automatic Fall Alert — If the Wristband detects an event
such as an abrupt shock or rapid change in acceleration,
the Link–Mobile system is designed to interpret this as a
potential fall. Both the Wristband and the Clip will vibrate
and the LED on both will flash blue continuously.
If in range, the Wristband will send an Alert to the
Communications Clip, which then sends an Alert signal to
the Help Center computers over the cellular network.
13
USING LINK–MOBILE
Depending on your service plan, this Alert signal triggers
one of three actions:
1. An SMS and email are sent to your designated
emergency contacts
2. An SMS and email are sent to your designated
emergency contacts. If no acknowledgment** is received,
the Emergency Response Center is contacted.
3. The Emergency Response Center is directly alerted of
your need for assistance
** Acknowledgments are performed by emergency contacts who
follow a link in the SMS or Alert email within the time allowed.
Cancelling an Automatic Fall Alert
1. If an Alert is triggered accidentally, it can be cancelled
before the Alert signal is sent to the Help Center
computers. To cancel an Alert, squeeze and hold both
buttons on either the Clip or the Wristband until the LED
on both units briefly flashes green and then goes out.
14
2. NOTE: As a safety feature to protect a confused Wearer,
if both buttons are squeezed three or more times within
thirty seconds, the Alert cannot be cancelled and will
be sent to the Help Center computers. This will be
treated as an Alert and, depending on your service plan,
predefined response actions will follow.
In addition, Link–Mobile can trigger an Alert to be sent to
emergency contacts (SMS and email notifications) on other
monitored events including:
Low Battery — If Clip or Wristband battery levels are
too low, the LED on the respective device will flash
amber intermittently until the unit is placed on the Dock
and battery levels recover. NOTE: Please allow three
hours for a full charge.
Out of Range — If the Clip cannot communicate
with the cellular network or the Wristband cannot
communicate with the Clip, the LED on the respective
device will pulse red twice every five seconds. The red
USING LINK–MOBILE
flashing LED will go out when communications are
restored.
Activity — If the activity measured by the Wristband is
either above or below a threshold set in the Link–Mobile
Dashboard, an Alert is sent. No indication of this Alert is
portrayed on the Wristband or Clip.
Zone — If the Communications Clip enters a restricted
map area or leaves a safe map area outside designated
hours, an Alert is sent. No indication of this Alert is
portrayed on the Wristband or Clip.
TYPES OF SERVICE PLANS
Personal — All Alerts, including Panic and Fall, are sent
only to emergency contacts (friends/family/neighbors), as
defined in the Wearer’s profile.
Personal with Professional Escalation — Clip and
Wristband Alerts are sent to emergency contacts AND
will roll to the Emergency Response Center if not
acknowledged, within four minutes, by a click on the
link contained in the SMS/Email. After the Emergency
Response Center Agent acts, an email will be sent to all
emergency contacts summarizing the actions taken (afterincident report). All other non-emergency Alerts are sent
directly to emergency contacts only. NOTE: The links in
the email and SMS are active for fifty minutes, after which
they expire.
Professional — Clip and Wristband Alerts are sent directly
to the Emergency Response Center. An email is sent to all
emergency contacts summarizing the actions taken (afterincident report). All other non-emergency Alerts are sent
directly to emergency contacts only.
Professional Plus — This service plan includes all
the features of the Professional plan, plus advanced
functionality and enhanced alert monitoring and reporting.

18
Leaving Home
Initial testing with the Emergency Response Center will
help you determine if you can leave your Communications
Clip on the Dock while you wear the Wristband around
the house. Since the Link–Mobile Wristband needs to be
in communication with the Communications Clip to work,
you will need to remember to take your Clip with you
when you leave home. If you forget your Communications
Clip, your Wristband LED will flash red and the Clip will
send an SMS or email to your phone (if you add yourself
as an emergency contact) and an Alert to your emergency
contacts. Attaching the white Accessory Plate to your house
keys can be a helpful reminder to bring your Clip with you
when leaving home.
USING LINK–MOBILE

Auto Alert by calling the Emergency
Response Center or visiting
www.Link–Mobile.com.
If you still have questions, contact
Customer Care.
Excess Low
Battery Alerts
NOTE: Batteries in
the Wristband and
Communications Clip
are lithium ion type
and do not suffer from
“memory” problems
typical in previous
rechargeable battery
technologies. Wearers
do not need to allow
devices to periodically
discharge in order to
extend recharge life.
Both the Wristband and
Communications Clip will indicate
to the Wearer when they need
recharging via the LED on the device,
the LEDs on the charging Dock, and
by sending an SMS/email to those
whose profile indicates they should
receive such notices.
To reduce the number of notices
about battery, instruct the Wearer to
return the devices to the charging
Dock when the LEDs on the Dock
indicate a recharge is required.
Expected life after a full charge is
three days for the Communications
Clip and seven days for the
Wristband. Please allow devices to
remain on the charging Dock for
at least three hours to obtain a full
charge.
If you still have questions or believe
battery life is too short, contact
Customer Care.

Zone Alerts
The Communications
Clip generates an
Alert based on
parameters defined
by the Dashboard
manager, who defines
a geographic area
from which the Wearer
exits (inclusion zone) or
enters (exclusion zone).
In ideal conditions, the GPS signal
received by the Communications
Clip can indicate a location within
three meters of actual location.
Areas with tall buildings or placing
the Communications Clip in an area
with an obstructed view of the sky
can result in the device mistakenly
reporting a location at the far edge of
device accuracy, often more than 300
meters from its actual location.
To reduce the number of notices
about zones, be sure that the zone
has been drawn large enough to
account for occasional stray GPS
signals. For help drawing, see
demonstration video on
www.Link–Mobile.com under Help.
If you still have questions or need
help creating zones, contact
Customer Care.

Out of Range
Alerts
The radio link between
the Communications
Clip and the Wristband
can be reliably
maintained at distances
of up to 150 feet in
clear space.
A range test can be performed at any
time by placing the Communications
Clip on the Dock in the desired
recharging location and pressing
one side of the Wristband button.
Do this while wandering around the
living space. A green LED on the
Wristband indicates a completed
connection with the Communications
Clip. The number of flashes (one to
three) indicates signal strength where
three is the strongest. A red LED
indicates the Wristband is no longer
communicating with the Clip.
To reduce the number of notifications
about the Wristband being out
of range, the Wearer should carry
the Communications Clip when
they expect to move beyond the
range that can reliably maintain a
connection.
A home’s construction
materials and
interference from other
devices can reduce the
distance the Wristband
can travel from the
Communications
Clip and still retain a
connection.
If you still have questions, contact
Customer Care.
A break in the
connection is reported
on the Wristband by a
red LED.

No Comms
Alerts
The Communications
Clip requires a cellular
signal to send its
information to the
Emergency Response
Center.
Atmospheric conditions, a home’s
construction materials and
interference from other devices
can reduce the signal transmission
between the Communications Clip
and cell towers.
To reduce the number of notifications
about the Communications Clip losing
connection with the cellular network,
considering adjusting the “Device not
Communicated” slider to the right
(slider can be found under Contacts
section under System Notifications).
Be aware that the ability to notify
emergency contacts in the event of a
panic or fall is not possible when the
Communications Clip is not receiving
a cellular signal.
Since this can be intermittent,
Dashboard managers have the ability
to adjust the time interval before the
Emergency Response Center will
send a notification to emergency
contacts saying that the connection
with the Communications Clip and
the cell tower has been lost.
