User Guide
Introduction
This User Guide provides basic instructions for the successful usage of the Lone Worker Transmitter.
CAUTION! Reasonable effort was made to ensure that the specifications and other information in this guide are accurate and complete at the time of its
publication. Nonetheless, all information contained in this document is subject to change at any time without prior notice. Any modifications to this equipment
without prior written consent of Elpas Solutions Ltd. will void all warranties including the pertinent regulatory certifications and as such revoke your authority
to operate this product. Furthermore, unauthorized modifications may also result in damage to this device and may cause a safety hazard to the users.
Product Description
The Elpas Shield is a personal duress button device with optional pull cord and fall
detection capabilities. Elpas Shield is designed for real-time monitoring and tracking of
staff members and visitors, both indoors and outdoors. The LoneWorker Fall Detect
Transmitter is designed both for seniors in assisted living facilities or work place staff
members that may be subject to attack or injury in high-risk environments.
Alarms can be triggered either by squeezing the two side buttons. In the Fall Detect
version, when worn on a belt, a short rip cord may be attached to a belt loop so that
an alarm is transmitted when the device is pulled off the belt.
Note: Users can also wear the Shield as a pendant using a lanyard. If you choose to do so, make
sure you use a lanyard for which, the force required to unlatch the tether switch is less than the
force required to open the clasp.
The pull mechanism is particularly useful for seniors with arthritis who have difficulties
(Actual product may vary from photo)
pressing buttons.
The LoneWorker Fall Detect Transmitter also detects falls and alarms when tilted
horizontally. To prevent false alarms, the device indicates a pre-alarm by giving the
wearer a chance to cancel the alarm before it is transmitted by pressing on the front
cancel button.
Button press or pull cord (pull cord is present only in Fall detect version) should be
used as the primary means of calling for help even after a fall. The fall detection is
meant to alert in the event that the victim falls unconscious and may not trigger if not
sufficiently horizontal.
Elpas Shield based help call systems may be monitored by Elpas ELC controllers
and/or by Eiris Software which also receives alerts, through Eiris Cloud, from the
LoneWorker application that connects to Elpas Shield through Bluetooth, outdoors.
Elpas Low Frequency Beacons may be used to provide room level indoor location.
Outputs on all Elpas network devices may be used to drive sirens, strobe lights or PA
systems. Alerts may be sent to various handheld devices such as DECT handsets
using Eiris DECT interfaces or to IOS or Android smartphones using EirisGo apps.
Calls may be cleared by exposing Elpas Shield to a responder’s handheld LF beacon
requiring that staff arrive at the location of the caller.
The same Elpas infrastructure used for the duress solution may also be leveraged for
Access control, Asset tracking, Attendance and intrusion alarming making Elpas one
of the most competitive comprehensive solutions available today.

Cleaning & Disinfection Procedures
®
Use an appropriate antibacterial disinfectant such as Dispatch Hospital Cleaner Disinfectant with Bleach from Caltech Industries
(http://www.caltechind.com) to clean the Lone Worker Transmitter.
Since ‘Cleaning Procedures’ may vary according to facility guidelines, thus the procedures given below are for illustrative purposes only:
Option 1 – Using Dispatch Disinfectant Spray
Option 2 – Using Dispatch Disinfectant Towels
1. Lightly wet a disposable towel with Dispatch spray.
1. Open a new Dispatch pre-moistened towel
Do not saturate the towel
2. Wipe the outer surfaces of the sensor

Pull Switch Cleaning: Frequent use of the pull switch may result in a buildup of dust on the mechanism. Dust buildup causes friction
which requires added force to pull and restore the switch. Should this occur, clean the switch using a compressed air duster. Gently
spray on the pull switch, and use a brush (often included in the canister).
