All Rights Reserved. Contents Introduction Welcome to Home Heartbeat™—the world’s first personal wireless Home Awareness System! Home Heartbeat provides a new perspective on your home environment. The system helps you keep a watchful eye on the comfort and safety of your home. It can be extended to monitor the vital, yet often overlooked parts of your home, giving you peace of mind that all is secure. The compact, portable visual display—the Home Key™—organizes and presents you with the information you care about most. It can even automatically shift to alert you via your cell phone or email when you are away from home. This User’s Guide will introduce you to the Home Heartbeat system, assist you with initial setup, and explain how you can use it to monitor your home. Introduction Getting to Know Home Heartbeat The Home Heartbeat Starter Pack includes the following three essential components of a Home Heartbeat system: • Base Station • Sensor • Home Key You can expand your Home Heartbeat system any time by adding additional accessories, such as more sensors or Range Extenders. (Visit www.homeheartbeat.com for more information on the latest introduction of sensors.) The next two pages provide more details about the components you will find in the Home Heartbeat Starter Pack, and how they work together. This product is designed for in-home use only. Getting to Know Home Heartbeat Home Heartbeat Starter Pack Components Base Station The Base Station is the heart of the system. It communicates with the Home Key and all sensors and accessories wirelessly and maintains constant awareness of the state of your home. Place the Base Station in a central location in your home, at least one foot away from any other wireless devices you may have. Antenna Home Key Slide Channel Home Key Battery Charging Contacts Green Charging Status Light Red System Error Light Power Adapter The power adapter allows the Base Station to be plugged into a nearby wall outlet. Home Heartbeat Starter Pack Components Phone Cord and Phone Cord Splitter The phone cord and splitter are included so that you can set up and receive cell phone text message and email alerts when you are away from home.* Home Key Use the Home Key to: • Set up the Base Station the first time you use the system and set up individual sensors. • Determine whether system components are in range. • Visually monitor the status of your home while you are at home. • Get a snapshot of the current state of your home as you are leaving. • Automatically set the system to send cell phone text messages and email alerts after you have left home. *Note: When you plug in the Base Station, it will make an initial call to the server. The call will last less than a minute. Each time an alert is sent to your cell phone or email, the Base Station will make a quick call to the server. If your phone line is in use, Home Heartbeat will not send a message until the line is free. Open/Closed Sensor for Doors, Windows and Cabinets This sensor monitors the state of a door, window, or cabinet, letting you know if it is open or closed. The sensor body and magnet must be installed within 1/2 inch of each other to register as closed (as shown). Home Key Slide Channel Antenna Sensor Body Enclosed adhesive should be attached on back for placement Thumbwheel Magnet Eaton does not take responsibility for the transmission time required for alerts to contact your cell phone or email, as this is regulated by your service provider. Sensor Battery Keychain Each sensor is powered by one CR123A 3V lithium battery, included in the packaging.

Note: So that you can test your sensor later in the instructions, select Alarm on Opened (you can always change it later). 20 Getting Started Set "CallMe" Awareness? is the next question. When you leave home and take your Home Key with you, Home Heartbeat can automatically switch to a higher level of awareness and send all "CallMe" level alerts to your cell phone or email. ������������������ ������������������� �������������� When you see this screen, CLICK once and choose from the following options: Don't call me If you choose this option, you will not receive a text message or email alert regarding the status of this sensor. Call me on Closed, Call me on Opened If you choose one of these options and set up remote alerts in Step 4 on page 27, you will receive a cell phone text message or email alert about the status of your sensor. Getting Started 21 Now, pull them apart. The icon will show the sensor as open. So that you can test the sensor later in the instructions, select Call me on Opened. Then, click Done, Go back? Front Door Opened for 5mins Your Home Key should now show an Open/Closed icon beside the Home Key icon. If you set In-Home Awareness to Alarm when Opened or Alarm when Closed: Test the Sensor Take a moment to test your Open/Closed sensor. Open: Sensor parts are away from each other. If you set In-Home Awareness to Don't Alert: ������������ ���������� ������ Put the two parts of the sensor together and roll over the icon for the Open/Closed Sensor. It will show the sensor as closed. �������������������� Closed: Sensor parts are within 1/2 inch of each other. Front Door Closed for 45mins 22 Getting Started Depending on which option you chose, when you put the two parts of the sensor together or pull them apart, the Home Key will flash red and show a full screen alert. When you click the thumbwheel once, the screen will switch over to the alerting icon. If the Home Key is asleep, it will blink red each time the Home Key gets an update (the default setting is once per minute) to let you know there is an alarm. If you click the thumbwheel the screen will show the alert message. Getting Started 23 HIGHLIGHT and CLICK Check Range? to go to the Range Finder. After a few moments, the screen will automatically report the range. If you are within range, scroll up to Done, go back? and move to the next step. If you do not see the feedback you expect on the screen, check your settings by highlighting the Open/Closed Icon and DOUBLE-CLICK the thumbwheel. You will see the training questions again. Select In-Home Awareness? Select Alarm on Opened and then CLICK on Done, go back? Repeat the sensor test again. �������������� ������������ 3. Place the Open/Closed Sensor Check the Sensor Range It is important to check if the location where you want to place your sensor is within range of the Base Station. Carry your Home Key and the sensor to the location where you want to install it. Hold the Home Key right next to the intended location. SCROLL to the Base Station icon and DOUBLE-CLICK the thumbwheel. ����������� ���������������� 24 Getting Started �������� Take the Home Key along with the sensor to the location where you want to install the sensor. ������������ If the sensor is out of range, you should select a sensor location that is closer to the Base Station, or add a Range Extender to increase the coverage (see page 45 for more information). After checking the range, CLICK Done, go back? Getting Started 25 Attach the Open/Closed Sensor Once you are sure that the sensor is within range, you can place the sensor on your door, cabinet, or window. Check its position on your closed door and door frame. The two sensor parts must be positioned within 1/2 inch of each other to register as closed. The Open/Closed icon on your Home Key will show if it is registering as open or closed. Take the enclosed adhesive and remove the backing from one side and stick it to the back of each part of the Open/Closed Sensor. Remove the remaining backing from the adhesive, and place one part onto the door and one onto the frame, both within 1/2 inch of each other. If you prefer, you can mount the sensor with two #4 wood screws (not included). Remove the cover of the sensor to locate the holes that are positioned below the battery clip. If you would like to add, test, and place additional sensors or accessories (such as a Water Sensor, Reminder Sensor, or additional Open/Closed Sensor), you can do so now. Instructions for the setup of each sensor are included with their packaging. 26 Getting Started Depending on the design of your molding, you may want to place “Part B” on either the door or the molding itself. When you position the parts of the sensor, make sure they are within 1/2 inch of each other when they are closed. 4. Set Up Remote Alerts During this step, you will be completing the setup so that the system can send you cell phone text message or email alerts. When you plug the phone cord into the phone jack, the Base Station will make an initial call to the server to check in. This call will last less than a minute. After you register and choose a Global "CallMe" option on the Home Key to send remote alerts (see page 28), the Base Station will make a call each time an alert is initiated. If there is no long-distance service on the line, the Base Station may or may not complete calls to the server. After setup is complete, if you don’t receive remote alerts as expected, call Home Heartbeat Support at 1-800-813-2199 for assistance. PLUG the enclosed phone cord into the back of the Base Station and into a nearby phone jack.* *If you are plugging the Base Station into a wall jack with DSL service, use a DSL filter to isolate the signals and ensure unaffected service. Getting Started 27 Register your cell phone or email To register for cell phone text message or email alerts, call Home Heartbeat Support at 1-800-813-2199 and a friendly operator will assist you. You will be asked to provide the 16-digit serial number on the back of the Base Station, your cell phone number and service provider, or your email address. There is an annual activation fee to enable remote alerts with Home Heartbeat. Note: YYour service provider may apply a charge for individual text messages. Choose Global "CallMe" options on your Home Key The system is preset to Call me always so that you can try out the system during initial setup. You can change this setting anytime you would like by DOUBLE-CLICKING the thumbwheel on the Global "CallMe" icon. 28 Getting Started Using your Home Key, ROLL OVER and DOUBLE-CLICK at the Global "CallMe" icon. ��������������� �������������� HIGHLIGHT Set Global "CallMe"? and CLICK once. �������������� �������������������� ����������������� The following options will be listed: Don't call me If you choose this option, you will not receive cell phone text messages or email alerts about anything, even if you set sensors to send "CallMe" alerts during the initial set up. This setting overrides any individual sensor settings. Getting Started 29 Call me always If you choose this option, you will receive cell phone text message alerts or email alerts about the sensors you have set to send "CallMe" alerts, whether you are within range of the Base Station or not. This is a good setting if you would like to leave your Home Key docked all the time or if you are installing this system in a location that you visit less frequently. Automatic call me If you set your sensor to "CallMe" and you choose this option, the system will automatically sense when your Home Key is out of range and will send you a cell phone text message or an email alert if the status of the sensor changes. When your Home Key is within range, it will automatically switch back to your In-Home Awareness settings, and will not send an alert. Test the System To test the system, try changing various settings (you can always change them back). Set Global "CallMe" to Call me always? and CLICK Done, go back? to return to the main screen. Set the Open/Closed sensor to "Call me on Opened". Now, go and open the door, window, or cabinet where your sensor is located. You should receive a text message on your cell phone within a few minutes. 5. Monitor Your Home In-Home Awareness In-Home Awareness allows you to monitor your home status via your Home Key while you are at home, when the Home Key is within range. To check on any sensor you installed, simply roll over the icon for that sensor and you will be able to see its status. For example, the icon on your Home Key for the Open/Closed Sensor changes visually to show you that the door, window, or cabinet you have chosen to monitor is open or closed: Note: If your phone line is in use, Home Heartbeat will not send a message until the line is free. Front Door Closed for 45mins 30 Getting Started Getting Started 31 If you have set a sensor In-Home Awareness to alert and the status of the sensor changes while your Home Key is “awake” it will beep, blink red, and show you a full-screen alert message. ������������ ���������� ������ �������������������� If you click the thumbwheel once, it will jump to the alerting icon. If the Home Key is “asleep” when it receives an alert, the screen will blink red, and when you click the thumbwheel it will show the full-screen alert message. If the battery is okay and the screen shows an amber backlight and a flashing question mark (?), this means that the sensor is out of range. When your Home Key is not docked, the screen will go to sleep after a few seconds of inactivity. However, the screen will blink green every time it gets an update (the default is once per minute) to let you know the system is continuing to monitor your home. If the status of a sensor changes while the Home Key is asleep, the screen will blink red (within a minute) to let you know of the change. To change the default settings, see Home Key Power Save Options on page 38. If you highlight a sensor icon and the screen backlight turns amber and shows the battery icon, it may mean that the battery for that sensor is low. CLICK once on the icon to check battery status. It should normally read: Battery OK. If it says, Battery LOW, replace the (CR123A 3V lithium) battery in this sensor. 32 Getting Started Getting Started 33 As You Are Leaving As you leave your home, bring your Home Key with you. It will automatically do two things once you exit the Base Station range: 1. It will freeze the last system update that it received from the Base Station. This snapshot of the system is based on the last “heartbeat” the Home Key receives and can be adjusted. (For more information, see page 38, Home Key Power Save Options). You'll be able to check at a glance if you left the front door open, for example. Snapshot mode is indicated with brackets [ ] that surround the sensor icon messages. 2. If you have set your system to Automatic utomatic call me, it will shift the system to send cell phone text messages or email alerts for sensors set to "CallMe" Awareness. 34 Getting Started "CallMe" Awareness Outside Your Home If you set the system to Automatic call me, bringing the Home Key with you when you leave your home automatically signals the system to shift to a higher level of awareness called "CallMe" Awareness. When this occurs you will automatically receive cell phone text message or email alerts, unless you have configured the system not to call you about a given sensor or sensors. If you set your system to Call me always, you will get cell phone text message or email alerts for all sensors set to "CallMe" Awareness. You will receive these alerts both at home and away, whether the Home Key is within range of the Base Station or not. Getting Started 35 Getting the Most Out of Home Heartbeat Check Home Key Battery Status The Home Key has a rechargeable battery that will provide about 5–7 days of use under normal conditions. To check the status of the Home Key battery: 1. ROLL OVER to the Home Key Icon and CLICK the thumbwheel once. 2. You will see a battery icon.

If the Home Key needs charging, the green light on the left side of the Base Station will blink. When the green light no longer blinks, the Home Key is fully charged. It takes about three hours for a full charge. Home Key Power Save Options The Home Key shows you the status of your home on its screen because it receives periodic wireless updates from the Base Station. When it is “awake” and in range it constantly checks for updates. When sleeping, the default setting is 1min updates. The Home Key will flash green each time it gets an update. Customizing how often your key requests updates when asleep can extend how long your Home Key lasts before needing recharging. Quick updates give you a more responsive system, but use more battery power. Hourly updates use less battery power. 38 Getting the Most Out of Home Heartbeat To choose a Home Key Battery Life option: 1. HIGHLIGHT the Home Key icon. �������� ������������ 2. DOUBLE-CLICK the thumbwheel and choose Battery life? to reveal the options: • • • • • • Short, 10sec updates 30sec updates 1min updates (default setting) 2min updates 15min updates Long, 1hr updates 3.

However, you will need to check that the new position is within range of your sensors. After you move the Base Station and plug it in, wait 30 minutes for all of the sensors to “report in.” Then, use your Home Key and roll over each sensor icon. If the screen is amber and shows a “?”, the sensor is out of range. If the sensor is out of range, you may need to relocate the Base Station, or use a Range Extender (not included) to expand its range. The Base Station communicates with your Home Key and all sensors within range. Depending on the construction and size of your home, you may need to use one or more Range Extenders (not included) to extend the transmission zone of the Base Station. Range Extender Average home size with one Range Extender Managing Power Outages in Advance You can add battery back-up capabilities to your Base Station by installing two lithium CR123A 3V batteries (not included). Make sure that the Home Key is not docked on the Base Station. Then, open the Base Station front cover by pressing on the white tab on the bottom and swinging the cover out. Insert the two batteries, making sure to orient them correctly in the battery clips. Replace the front cover. 44 Getting the Most Out of Home Heartbeat If you are using the Automatic call me option, the system is programmed to send a cell phone text message or email alert when the Home Key is outside the range of the Base Station. This option works best if you are in range until you actually leave the confines of your home. Add a Range Extender for best results. Extending Your System The Home Heartbeat system can accommodate up to 32 total devices, including the Base Station, Home Keys, and sensors such as the Open/Closed, Reminder, Water, and Range Extenders. Large home size with two Range Extenders Getting the Most Out of Home Heartbeat 45 Managing System Updates Future Home Heartbeat remote devices will make use of this option, which is accessed by double-clicking under the Global "CallMe" icon and highlighting Send System Info? This option gives you the choice to send a sensor-wide update at different daily intervals, to manage instances when no alerts are generated in a 24-hour period. Troubleshooting If you experience difficulty with your Home Heartbeat system, the tips in this section may help you diagnose and fix them yourself.

Check the range of the sensor by holding the Home Key near it, highlighting the Home Status icon, and DOUBLE-CLICKING. CLICK Check Range? to go to the Range Finder. If the screen shows that the sensor is Out of range, you may need to move the Base Station closer to the sensor or add a Range Extender to widen the 46 Getting the Most Out of Home Heartbeat Troubleshooting 47 range of your system (see page 45, Using Range Extenders). If you relocate your Base Station, the sensors take a few minutes to check in after you plug it in. Until they do, they will display a “?” and report state unknown for the icon. If an icon on the Home Key shows a flashing battery icon and displays an amber backlight The sensor or the Base Station battery may be running low. If it is a sensor icon, CLICK once to check the battery status on the bottom line of the screen. If it says Battery low, replace the sensor battery with one CR123A 3V battery. If it is the Home Status icon and it shows a Battery low message below the icon, replace the two Base Station batteries with CR123A 3V batteries. If you do not see any feedback about a sensor on your Home Key screen Check to see if the sensor is within range of the Base Station. Go to the location where your sensor is installed and ROLL OVER the Base Station icon. DOUBLE-CLICK the thumbwheel and CLICK Check Range? The screen will show a Range Finder to help you determine whether the sensor is within range. 48 Troubleshooting �������� If the screen shows that the sensor is not in range, you may need to move the Base Station closer to the sensor, or add a Range Extender to extend the range of your Base Station (see page 45, Using Range Extenders). Check that the battery in the sensor is not low by rolling over the sensor icon. If the screen is amber in color and shows a flashing battery icon, the sensor battery is low. Remove it and replace it with one lithium CR123A 3V battery. If the Home Key is not responding The Home Key might need to be charged. SLIDE it into the Base Station and check the green light on the left side. When the Home Key needs charging, the light blinks. When the light no longer blinks, the Home Key is fully charged.
