Introduction
The Personal Safety Bracelet is a wrist worn Active RFID Tag that provides around-
the-clock monitoring of medical patients and assisted living care residents who
require added safety.
The bracelet bundles triple-tech Real-Time Location System (RTLS) technologies to
deliver precise real-time positioning data so that a host RTLS safety application or an
integrated physical security platform can track the whereabouts of the individual
anywhere within the facility.
The bracelet features a large duress call button designed especially for senior
citizens. Pressing the button causes the tag to transmit positioning data that identifies
the person requiring assistance and the precise building location of the involving
medical or safety incident for speedier and more effective response efforts.
The bracelet also enables immediate near-exit location awareness for administering
patient/staff escort procedures and for preventing unauthorized transfers into or out of
protected building areas.
It is important that you understand, and follow the instructions in this document.
Should you have any questions, please contact your Elpas support representative
before proceeding with the installation, operation or maintenance of these products.
