Installing the Batteries
Pendant - small white batteries. The Pendant requires one of the white
Li-Ion (Lithium Ion) batteries at any given time. The pendant should be able
to run up to 2 months on a fully charged battery. The second battery is to be
charging in the Base unit when not being used in the Pendant. There is no
problem of over charging while in the base charger.
To install the battery - rotate the battery cap
90’ counter-clockwise. Pull the battery cap
straight up to remove. Install the battery
with the positive side up facing the cap.
Re-install the cap by aligning the cap as
per the diagram to the left. Then push the
cap back down and rotate 90’ clockwise to
lock in place.
When the battery is first installed into the
Pendant - you will hear an aubile announcment of the battery status: “Battery is ok”;
“Battery is low” or “Replace battery now”.
If the battery is fully discharged when you
get your unit - you may not hear anything
- at which point you will need to charge
one of the batteries up overnight in the
base charger before you will be able to
use the system.
You can check the battery status at any
time by simply pushing the gray battery
test button on the back of the Pendant for a second.
NOTE: These white batteries are very special batteries that are not available
at your local store. See Specification on page 28 for more details, or contact
LogicMark to purchase replacement batteries.

Place the extra Pendant battery into the front charging area of the Base unit
so that it will charge and be ready when its time to swap the batteries around.
The LED on the right side
will glow red when charging and green when fully
charged.
Base - larger green batteries: The
Base unit requires 4 rechargeable
NiMH batteries. Unlike the Pendant
battery - these are readily available
in many retail stores. These are to
provide you with up 24 hours of battery back-up protection in the event
of a power failure. They will not be
damaged by continually charging in
the base unit.
When you first get your unit - these batteries will probably be low, or even
fully discharged - and will need to be charged overnight before being able
to provide you the 24 hour battery back-up protection.
Unscrew the cover on the bottom of the Base unit with the supplied screwdriver. Install the 4 batteries as shown in the plastic engraving in the battery
compartment area. A few seconds after you install these, you might hear
“Running on battery power”. This will continue every 5 minutes for up to
30 minutes - then every 30 minutes until power is applied through the power
adaptor. (If you do not hear anything - this simply means your batteries will
need to be fully charged overnight. Or it may mean that you have already
plugged in the power adaptor - which is why it would not announce “Running on battery power”.
NOTE: the voice prompts of “battery is OK” etc only apply to the pendant
battery - not to the status of the base unit’s batteries. It is recommended that
you replace the base unit batteries with a new set of similar batteries every
two years.

Connecting the Base Unit
Power Connection. Simply plug in the AC Adapter in to the nearest electrical outlet. Plug the other end of the AC power adapter into the Base unit.
You need to push the plug into the opening in the Base unit and twist 90’
clockwise to lock in place. To remove in the future, simply rotate 90’ counter-clockwise and pull outward.
Caution: Do not plug the AC Adapter into an outlet which is controlled
by a switch. The switch could accidentally be turned off, thus rendering
the Base unit inoperable after approximately 24 hour when the back up
batteries become discharged.
Telephone Connection. No special phone line or special service is required
to use your FreedomAlert. Your phone will work with your existing touchtone phone line and existing service. It works the same way as any cordless
phone. (Touch Tone service is required). Simply plug one end of the
telephone cord into your telephone jack in the wall, and the other end into
either one of the telephone jacks at the back of the Base unit. Note - you
will feel a ‘click’ when the jacks are firmly seated in the wall and the Base
unit jack recepticals.
If you need to plug a conventional telephone into same outlet used by the
FreedomAlert, simply plug the telephone into the spare jack at the back of
the Base unit.

How to Handle VoIP & DSL
If Your Phone System is VoIP: Voice-over-Internet Protocol (VoIP) is a
telephone service that sends your call over the Internet instead of through
the regular telephone system. FreedomAlert will work well on most VoIP
systems.
It is important (if you haven’t already done so) that you register your physical address with your VoIP provider and check to insure that 911 service is
available to you.
If you are unsure if your phone system uses VoIP, or to find if your VoIP system
is capable of calling 911, please contact your telephone service provider.
To install FreedomAlert, simply plug the product into the telephone jack (or
adaptor jack) that you would normally plug a regular telephone into.. Note,
if you have both a working traditional phone line AND a VoIP phone system
we recommend connecting the FreedomAlert system to the traditional phone
line.
For more information on using the FreedomAlert product with your VoIP
system, visit our website at www.LogicMark.com and view the FAQ under
the OUR PRODUCTS tab.
How to Handle DSL: If your home has DSL
service for your computer, you will need to
use a DSL filter in line with the FreedomAlert
OR IT WILL NOT WORK. This filter can be
obtained from a local electronics supplier or
your DSL service provider. See illustration
to the right.

Locating the Base Unit: For best results and longest range, locate the Base
unit in an area away from household appliances which could present electrical
interference. These include microwave ovens, televisions, electric mixers
or blenders, hairdryers, wifi routers or other cordless phones. Do not place
on a metal surface.
If more than one FreedomAlert is to be used in one home, it is recommended
that the Base units be located at least 10’ apart.
Base Unit Options and Features:
The FreedomAlert can work right out of the box with no programming. To
avoid programming any telephone numbers, simply slide the slide switch
at the back of the Base unit to the “911 Only” mode. Then, when you push
the blue button on the Pendant - you will be immediately connected to 911
emergency services. Note: If no Friend’s list phone numbers are entered or
a mistake was made while programming the Freedom Alert, it will automatically default to 911 for each of the 3 slide switch settings.
If you choose not to program any Friends numbers, simply skip these next
steps on Programming Telephone Numbers and jump to page 14.
Friend’s List and Emergency Operator.
In addition to being able to call 911, you can also program up to 4 telephone
numbers of your choosing. You need not program all 4 - just one if you
like. Typically, you might have it programmed for 2 numbers - to call your
neighbor and if they are not available, to call a family member. Even if you
do program a number or more into the Base unit - you can still at any time
choose to call “911 Only” by just sliding the switch at the back of the Base
unit. Your numbers remain in memory and will be ready for use when you
10
FreedomAlert instructions v9-5 E10 10
FreedomAlert®
v9.5
10/24/2009 11:02:00 PM
slide the slide switch back to one of the “Friends” position. Note: Disconnecting power or changing batteries does not erase the numbers.
How does the Base unit know when to go to the next number? The base
unit will first dial the first number in the “Friends” list. About 20 seconds
into the conversation, the Base unit will interrupt the call and announce
“This is an emergency call. If you want to continue this call - Press 5 now.
Otherwise, we will hang up and call the next contact or emergency operator”. At this point - the person that is being called must press the “5” key
on their telephone if they want to continue the call. If they don’t press “5”,
then the Base unit will assume they do not want to talk, or that it may be an
answering machine or a child - at which point it hangs up and goes on to the
next number. It is important to instruct the people you have programmed
into your “Friends” list to press “5” when they get this call, and when they
hear this message.
Programming the Base Unit
Programming Telephone Numbers:
If you choose to only contact 911 - and not a custom telephone number - skip
these next steps (and go to page 14) - and make sure your slide switch on the
back of the Base unit is set to “911 only”.
NOTES:
• As you program the system using your telephone on the same line as you
have established the call with in the previous steps, you will hear the base
unit speak each number that is pushed as you push them.
• Dial slowly and listen for each number to be announced. If you did not
hear the announcement - the number was not recorded.
• The FreedomAlert can learn telephone numbers up to 16 digits long, and
you do not have to program all 4 numbers
• Need to add a pause in your number sequence......simply insert a “”
where ever you need a 1 second pause. Insert “” if you need a 2
second pause.
• Remember to program a 1 before any long distance numbers.
• Remember to program any AREA CODE numbers if needed.
• Remember to program any PREFIX NUMBERS (like 9 to get an outside
line) if needed.

Step 1: Write out the numbers you are wanting to program into the system.
Below we will refer to Number 1 as the first number, Number 2 as the second
number etc. Include area-codes and a 1 or 9 if they are needed for dialing.
Step 2: Establish a phone connection with a friend or family member - or
with your cell phone. This is done as follows. From your home phone (on
the same line as the FreedomAlert is hooked-up to) call your cell phone (or
a friend or neighbor if you don’t have a cellphone). Answer the phone (or
wait until your neighbor answers the phone and tell them just to wait a minute
while you program your system). Note: If you don’t do this step, then as
you begin to program the unit with your telephone - the phone company will
think you are trying to dial an outline number and will try to complete the
call. By having the phone line already in use with your cell phone or friend
or family member - you are now ready to program the FreedomAlert.
Step 3: With the phone connection established in Step 2, slide the slide switch
at the back of the Base unit to “Learn Mode”. You will hear an audible
announcement of this position.
Step 4: Determine how many contact numbers you want to enter. Follow
the next steps to enter these numbers.
NOTE: The “#” key (the key in the lower right corner of your phone keypad)
must be entered before each phone number as shown in the work sheet on
the next page - and then pressed 4 times to exit out of programming.
Telephone Number Programming Worksheet:
Note: You will be using your telephone keypad on an open telephone line to
program the emergency call telephone numbers. The base will speak each
number that is pushed on the telephones keypad.
Dial Slowly – listen for each number to be announced, if you did not hear
the voice announcement – the number was not recorded.
The Freedom Alert can learn telephone numbers up to 16 digits long and you
DO NOT have to program all 4 contact telephone numbers. When you have
finished entering the telephone numbers that you want, skip to step 9.

Adding Additional Pendants to the System.
FreedomAlert comes with one Pendant. If you want to add addtional pendants
to your system - follow the directions here. If not, skip this section.
The Pendant’s unique ID code should already be learned into the Base unit
when it came from the factory. You can add additional Pendants (up to 16)
to the system by simply teaching each pendant’s ID code to the Base unit.
To program a new Pendant to the Base unit:
On the Base Unit:
1. Push and release the RED Code Learn button on the back of the base
unit. You will hear a voice prompt “Synchronizing Mode”
On the Pendant:
2. PUSH the Gray Battery Test button and then IMMEDIATELY push the
Blue Panic button –HOLD both buttons until you hear “Synchronizing
Mode” from the pendant - then release both buttons on the pendant.
• If “Base and Pendant out of Range” is heard from the pendant, STOP
- wait 30 seconds and start at step #1 again.
3. When Synchronizing has been successful you will hear “All Systems
are OK” and then it will announce the call setting that the base is set
to – Friends 911 Mode, Friends Only or 911 Only.
• If “Base and Pendant out of Range” is heard from the Base or Pendant, STOP - wait 30 seconds and start at step #1 again.
Notes:
• You have less than 10 seconds after pushing the RED Code Learn button
on the base unit to get the pendant to enter “Synchronizing Mode”.
• Teaching additional pendants does not erase previously learned pendants.
• The base unit will automatically exit the pendant learning mode after
several seconds.
• If you hear the voice prompt “Base and Pendant Out of Range” an error
has occurred, wait 30 seconds for the base to reset and repeat steps 1
& 2.

Battery Check:
The FreedomAlert has a built-in battery tester. When you press the Gray
button at the back of the Pendant, a voice announcement will inform you of
the battery condition. One of the following messages will be heard:
“Battery is ok.”
Check the battery condition twice a month.
“Replace battery soon.”
The battery should be replaced within the next week.
“Replace battery now.”
The battery should be replaced now.
To replace the battery - simply exhange the battery in the Pendant with the
battery that has been charging in the Base unit.
Please note: If there is no response after pressing the button for one second
or more, the battery is dead and must be replaced immediately.
The battery should be tested at least twice a month along
with the System Check outlined on the next page.
When it gets to the point after a few years that the pendant battery only lasts
3 or 4 weeks before needing to be charged - it is then time to replace both
the Pendant batteries. Note: This is a very unusual battery not available at
most outlets. Order replacement batteries from LogicMark as directed on
page 27.

10/24/2009 11:02:01 PM
We highly recommend that you perform this System Check at least
twice a month to confirm that your system is working properly
and that the pendant and base unit are in good communication
and that the base unit can get a dial tone. It is also recommended
to perform this system check after a lightning storm that could
damage the base unit which is plugged into the phone line.
Emergency Dialing Using the Pendant:
In the event of an emergency, press the blue panic button on the front of the
Pendant. When this button is pressed for more than 1 second, the FreedomAlert will automatically start dialing from the list of numbers.
If set to the “911 only” mode, then the 911 emergency operator will be called.
When the emergency response operator answers, speak in a normal voice
and you will be heard.
If set to the “Friends only” mode - the system will dial the first telephone
number in the list. If no one is available for that number, it will dial the
second number, etc - until it gets to the end of the list. It will then repeat
from the top of the list.
If set to the “Friends and 911” mode - the system will dial the first telephone
number in the list. If no one is available for that number, it will dial the
second number, etc - until it gets to the end of the list. After that, it will then
dial the 911 emergency operator.
Operating Range:
The operating range of your FreedomAlert will depend on many factors including intervening walls, electrical interference or various appliances such as
vacuum cleaners, microwave ovens, mixers, coffee grinders, hair dryers and
other sources of electrical noise around the house. The system should cover
your typical home and a short distance into the front, side and back yards.
Perform the System Check on page 17 to determine the boundries of your
system to know the limits of operation in your home and surroundings.

Water Resistance:
FreedomAlert will resist occasional splashes from water - i.e as in the shower.
However, it should never be submerged or exposed to water continuously.
Periodic Testing / Maintenance
It is highly recommended that you preform a full System Check (see page
18) at least twice a month. This will confirm that the Pendant battery is in
good condition and that the Base unit is able to get a dial tone.
Replacing Batteries: Replace the Base unit batteries every 2 years - or as
needed. Be sure to purchase NiMH AA batteries with 1,500 mAh or greater
capacity. A set of batteries in good condition and fully charged will supply
24 hours of back-up in the event of a power outage. You can test this by unplugging the AC Adapter and hearing the voice prompts. The Base unit will
announce “Running on battery power” once every 5 minutes for 30 minutes
- then once very 30 minutes until the batteries are depleated.
Out of Service Storage or Transportation: When storing the Base unit
-or taking it on a trip - or sending it in for repair - it is recommended that
you remove one or all of the AA rechargable batteries from the base unit so
that the “Running on battery power” announcement for the next 24 hours
doesn’t drive the postmaster crazy. Remember to re-install the 4 batteries
in the Base unit when it is put back in service.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
What if I can’t get the FreedomAlert to work?
Step 1 – Push the gray RESET button with a pen at the back of the base
unit (next to the power cord). Check the system. If it is now working skip
the remaining steps.
Step 2 – Check the PENDANT.
What to do:
Press the Gray Battery Test / System Check button on the
back of the Pendant.
What to expect:
A voice should announce the condition of the battery.
A light on the front of the Pendant will come on.
If nothing happens, the most likely cause is that the battery is dead or has
been installed backwards.
If the Pendant says “Battery ok”, go on to step 3.
Step 3 – Check the connections on the BASE UNIT
What to do:
Make sure the AC Adapter is plugged into a live AC outlet
and into the Base unit.
What to expect:
The Red POWER light will be on if the Base unit is connected
to power.
If the POWER light is on and the Base unit is connected to a working phone
line, go on to step 3.
Step 4 – Make sure the Pendant and the Base unit are communicating
with each other.
Background information: The Pendant and the Base unit are connected by

10/24/2009 11:02:01 PM
a wireless radio link. They must be synchronized to work together. They
should have already been synchronized at the factory, but resetting this is
simple.
What to do:
Follow the steps on page 14: Adding Additional Pendants to the
System
Now perform the System Check test again (page 18) to make sure all is
well.
If your FreedomAlert is still not working, call our TECH SUPPORT
department at 703-934-7934 (option 2 for customer service).

but not all areas, the sum of the RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain
of the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total
RENs, contact the local telephone company. Since our product has no ringer - the
REN is on the order of 0.2.

may be required. But if advance notice isn’t practical, the telephone company will
notify the customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be advised of your right to
file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is necessary.
f) The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that could affect the operation of the equipment. If this happens the telephone company will provide advance notice in order for you to make
necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupted service.
