CaretakerSentry® v3.11
Installing the Batteries:
Base - larger batteries: The Base unit requires 4 rechargeable 2400 mAH NiMH batteries (included). They
will 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. The ratings on these can be 2400 mAh or higher.
Whenyourstgetyourunit-thesebatterieswillprobablybelow,orevenfullydischarged-andwillneedto
be charged overnight before being able to provide you the 24 hour battery back-up protection.
Remove the cover on the bottom of the Base unit. 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”andREDPowerLEDwillash-whentheunitis operatingon thebackupbatteries.
(If you do not hear this
announcement
and the Power LED is on solid, the unit is already plugged
in to AC power).
Master ON/OFFSwitch:
CaretakerSentry has a Master ON/OFF switch on the bottom of the base unit – just right of the rechargeable
batteries compartment on the base unit. This switch controls all power – back up batteries and power from the
AC adapter. This switch should be ON at all times while the unit is in use. This switch should only be turned
OFF if the CaretakerSentry unit is taken out of service – during transportation or no longer needed.
Connecting the Base Unit:
Power Connection:
Simply plug the AC Adapter into 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.
v3.11 CaretakerSentry® 7
Telephone Connection:
A standard telephone line is required to use your
System.
Your phone will work with your existing touch-tone
phone line and existing service. It works the same way as any cordless phone.
NOTE: Touch Tone service is required.
Simply plug one end of the telephone cord into a telephone jack, and the other end into the “Line In” jack
atthebackoftheBaseunit.Note-youwillfeela‘click’whenthecordsarermlyseatedinthewallandthe
Base unit jack receptacles.
If you need to plug a
conventional telephone
into same
outlet
used by the Base unit, simply plug the telephone into
the spare jack labeled “To House Phone.”
Communication Protocol Options:
The CaretakerSentry unit supports 2 different alarm communication protocols – Contact ID and 4+2 - to help
the installer deal with any type of phone System that the customer may be using:
Contact ID alarm communication protocol is not recommended for use with VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol)
internet phone Systems such as Skype, MagicJack, Basic Talk, Vonage, Comcast, Fox, etc.
Presently
the
reliability
of such
services
is not
adequate
for use with Contact ID in an emergency situation. Check with your central
station for recommendations when your customer is using a VoIP telephone service.
4+2 is a “pulsed” alarm communication format that is much more reliable communication protocol with VoIP
phone Systems – but not all Central Stations support the use of 4+2 communication protocol. Please check
with your Central Station for
recommendations
before using 4+2 on a VoIP phone System.
How to Handle VoIP and other Internet phones: Check with your central station for recommendations
when your customer is using a VoIP telephone service.
Line Seizure:
The phone plugged into the “To House Phone” jack will have the line seizure feature. This means
that whenever the Base unit chooses to dial out during an emergency - it will seize the line from the phone that
is plugged into this “To House Phone” jack if it is in use - and disconnect it - so that the Base unit can dial out.
This is known as ‘Local line seizure’.
Notice: If you choose to have ‘Whole house line seizure’, you need to run all phones through this “To House
Phone” jack. This can only be done with professional installations.
Caution - If the Line Seizure feature is used and hooked-up, verification of Line Seize
capability should be made immediately after installation, and periodically thereafter,
in order to ensure that this equipment can initiate a call even when other equipment
(telephone,
answering System, computer modem, etc.) connected to the same line is in use.

CaretakerSentry® v3.11
Dealer Programming Instructions:
The System has several features to help with the programming. The System uses voice prompts and LED lights
toguideyouthroughtheprocess. Theygiveyouagoodaudibleconrmationoftheprogressasyouare
programming. Second are the LED lights on the base unit and the Pendant.
Here is the key for the LEDs:
Key to LED Status - Base Unit:
YELLOW BACK-UP BATTERY STATUS LED functions:
Off: Running on Battery Power
Solid: Normal Operation – Charging Batteries
Flashing: Low or Defective Batteries
BLUE PHONE CONNECTION LED function:
Off: Normal operation
Solid: Dialing/Talking
Flashing: No Phone Connection Detected
GREEN INFO LED functions:

Flashing: Pendant Learning or Problem with Pendant (battery or not communicating)
RED POWER LED functions:
Off: No AC power/No Back-up Battery Power
Solid: AC power
Flashing: Running on Battery Back-up
Programming Central Station Telephone Numbers & Account Codes:
The System must be
programmed
with the central station receiver
telephone
numbers and a 4 digit
account code before unit is operational. The System can learn 2 telephone numbers: the alarm receiver’s
toll free number as the “primary number” and the alarm receiver’s local long distance number as the
“secondary
number” as a back-up, in case the primary number is busy.
NOTES:
• YouprogramtheSystemusingatouch-tonetelephoneconnectedonthesamelineastheBaseunit.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 number
announcement - the number was not recorded.
• The System can learn numbers up to 32 digits long,
• If you chose to only program one central station number, simply enter “#” in place of the second number.
• If you 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.
Step1: WriteoutthenumbersyouarewantingtoprogramintotheSystem.Belowwewillrefertotherstphone
number as the
Primary
number, the second phone number as the secondary number. Include area-codes and a 1
or 9 if they are needed for dialing – just like you would need to dial the customers phone from their house.
Step 2: Establish a phone connection with your cell phone. This is done as follows.
From
the
home phone
(on
the same line as the
System
is hooked-up to) call your cell phone (or any other number - if you don’t have a
cellular telephone handy). Answer the phone (or wait until the number called answers the phone and tell
them just to wait a minute while you program your System).
v3.11 CaretakerSentry® 9
Note: If you don’t have an open line when you begin to program the System with your telephone - the phone
company will think you are trying to dial an outside number and will try to complete the call. By having the
phone line already in use with your cell phone or other called party - you are now ready to program the System.
Step 3: With the phone connection established in Step 2, slide the slide switch at the back of the Base unit
to Programming Mode. You will hear an audible announcement of this position.
Step 4: Start programming the System. Push the numbers slowly and listen to the voice prompts. Follow the
next steps to enter the numbers.
NOTE: The “#” key (the key in the lower right corner of your phone keypad) must be entered after the passcode,
after each central station number, and after the account code as shown in the steps below. Do not ignore
the “#” key.
Central Station Number, Account Code, Caretaker Telephone Number Programming:
Note: You will be using your telephone keypad on an open telephone line to program the System numbers.
The base will speak each number that is pushed on the telephones keypad. You DO NOT have to program a
secondary (or back-up) central station telephone number, but we highly recommend it.

REMOTELY PROGRAMMING THE System:
The System can be remotely programmed over a telephone line in one of two ways – Standard and Unaided
Remote Programming.
Standard Method:
1. Simply call the number of the residence where the System is connected.
2. Have the user slide the switch at the back of the base unit to “Programming Mode”.
3. Then, proceed to program the System as needed with the touch-tones of the phone on which you are
calling from.
4. Have them slide the switch back to Normal Operation when done.
Unaided Remote Programming:
1. The dealer calls the customers phone number that the CaretakerSentry is installed on.
2. The dealer allows the phone to ring 1 ring cycle - (equivalent to 1 ring back tone - about 6 seconds of
ringing).
3. The dealer then hangs up.
4. The dealer waits 10 seconds and dials the customer phone number again. The CaretakerSentry sees this
second call within a 30 second period and immediately answers the phon.
• The CaretakerSentry will only start this 30 second timer - waiting for a second call to ring the phone
ONLY if the phone only rings 1 time. If the phone rings more than 1 time, the
CaretakerSentry
unit will
not start the timer and will NOT wait for the second call - feature is canceled and reset.
5. As soon as the CaretakerSentry answers the call, [voice prompt – programming mode] is played.
6. The dealer enters the 4 digit passcode and then CaretakerSentry enters programming mode (unit will
program normally).
14
CaretakerSentry® v3.11
7. If no passcode or an incorrect passcode is entered within 15 seconds, the CaretakerSentry unit will
hang up and
reset.
8. The dealer will press ‘9’ to end programming, exit and reset the CaretakerSentry unit.
Note: The programming voice prompts will still be heard from the base while the unit is being remotely programmed
– this is designed to allow the customer know that changes are being made to their unit.
Adding Additional Pendants to the System:
Note:
When replacing pendants – due to loss or malfunction, ERASE ALL PENDANTS and re-learn just the pendant
that will be used. All pendants are supervised and the base will continue to “look” and send failure messages
to the central station for pendants that are no longer working or not currently being used. SEE SECTION –
ERASING ALL PREVIOUSLY LEARNED PENDANTS
The System comes with one Pendant. If you want to add
additional
pendants (for a combined total of 9) - 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 9) to the System by simply teaching each Pendant’s ID code to the Base unit.
When more than 1 Pendant is learned the base, the base unit will announce the Pendant
number - i.e.” Pendant #X, battery is OK” – when only 1 pendant is learned, the base will only
announce “Battery is OK”
Anytime the Pendant reports to the call center (even with pendant battery status), the pendant number
information is also transmitted to the central station – Zone 1, 2, 3,... for Pendants 1, 2, 3,...
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
“Pendant Learning”
On the Pendant:
2. PUSH the Gray Emergency Button on the Pendant.
• If“BaseandPendantoutofRange”or,“PendantLearningFailed”isheardfromthependant,
STOP - wait 30 seconds and start at step #1 again.
3. When the Pendant Learning has been successful you will hear “Pendant Code Learned”
•I f “BaseandPendantoutofRange”or,“PendantLearningFailed”isheardfromtheBaseorPendant,
STOP
- wait 30 seconds and start at step #1 again
Notes:
• Yo u have less than 45 seconds after pushing the RED Code Learn button on the base unit to get the pendant
to enter “Pendant Learning” mode.
• Te a c h i n g additional pendants does not erase previously learned pendants. It adds it to the list.The base
unit will automatically exit the pendant learning mode after several seconds or if Pendant Learning Failed
• If you hear the voice prompt “Base and Pendant Out of Range” or, “Pendant Learning Failed” an error has
occurred, wait 30 seconds for the base to reset and repeat steps 1 & 2.
• Only 9 Pendants can be learned. (If Pendants have been lost or replaced, we
recommend
you
erase
all
pendants
and
re-learn
all
current
Pendants.)
v3.11 CaretakerSentry® 15
Erasing All
Previously
Learned Pendants:
Simply holding down the RED Code Learn button at the back of the Base unit for 8 seconds. You will hear the
conrmationof“EraseAllPendants,AllpendantsErased”fromtheBaseunit. Afterthat,youcanprograma
new pendant to the base unit following the steps above as desired.
Basic Set-up and Test:
Lanyard, Wrist Strap
The System comes with 2 accessories for carrying the pendant. You can wear the Pendant using the
Lanyard or Wrist-strap. Note that the Wrist-Strap can also be used as a way to attach the Pendant to a wheel
chair. Choose the method that suits your customer’s needs.
The image above shows the method of attaching the lanyard to the Pendant. Note that the lanyard has a break-
away feature to release if it gets caught on something while around someone’s neck.
System Check:
• The CaretakerSentry has the ability to easily perform a full System check. Press and HOLD the CANCEL
button on the base unit until the base answers “System Check.”
• The GREEN INFO LED will turn on (the base will remain in this System Check mode for 3 minutes).
• You can end the System Check at any time by PUSHING the CANCEL button for 1 second. The base will
announce programming switch position and software version.
Push the Gray Emergency button on the pendant for 2 seconds (multiple pendants can be checked during the
same session) and the base unit will announce:
“All Systems are ok.”

Ifyoureceiveafailurenotication,pleaserefertotheTROUBLESHOOTINGguideonpage17 of this manual
to determine the cause.
Remind your customers to perform a System Check at least twice a
month.
NOTE:
The Pendant does
a
self test
on
the pendant battery every
13 hours.
When the battery level gets to the
“Replace battery now”
level,
it will send a signal to the central station to notify them of this
situation.
This pendant does not have any user serviceable parts – if a low battery condition or if failures
occur, the pendant MUST BE replaced.

CaretakerSentry® v3.11
The Base also counts these
13
hour
checks. If 4
reports are missed
in a row (52 hours
later),
the Base
unit will send a loss of RF
signal
to the
central
station.
This System Check feature is very useful -allowingyoutoconrmthattheSystemhascoverage
from all parts of the home. Put the base into the test mode and simply walk to the various parts
of your home and push the Gray Emergency button until you hear “Battery is OK” voice prompt.
If you did not hear the voice prompt, check the System more carefully.
NOTE: If your telephone service offers voice mail and the voice mail System uses a Stutter Dial
Tone to notify you of message, the System test may fail – “cannot detect dial tone” if a message
is waiting. This is normal as the CaretakerSentry is “listening” for a conventional dial tone. Check
your messages so the dial tone returns to a solid tone and test again. In the event of an emergency,
the CaretakerSentry will dial the emergency number regardless of a standard or stutter dial tone.
Operating Range:
The operating range of the System will depend on many factors including intervening walls, electrical interference
or various appliances such as vacuum cleaners, refrigerators, microwave ovens, mixers, coffee grinders, hair
dryers and other sources of electrical noise around the house. The System should cover the entire home and
a short distance into the front, side and back yards. Perform the System Check on page 15 to determine the
boundaries of the System to know the limits of operation in your home and surroundings.
Testing:
Be sure to have your subscriber (customer) fully test the System with the central station. Please keep in mind -
when using the 433 MHz 1-way pendant, the pendant will activate the base unit well beyond the voice
audible range of the speaker and microphone. Please consult with your customer and central
station on procedures and policies if the central station receives a emergency call but they cannot
communicate with your customer.
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 turn the
Master ON / OFF switch to OFF so that the “Running on battery power” announcement doesn’t repeat for the
next 24 hours. Remember to turn the Master ON / OFF switch ON in the Base unit when it is put back in service.
Caution - If the Line Seizure feature is used and installed the installer, customer or user must verify
that the telephone line and equipment will work properly when the System is turned OFF and/
or removed from service.

TROUBLESHOOTING
GUIDE:
What if I can’t get the System to work?
Step 1 – Push the Black 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 Emergency button and look for the RED LED to turn ON
What to expect:
The RED LED on the pendant should turn ON for 2 seconds
If nothing happens, the most likely cause is that the battery in the pendant is dead – make plans to replace
the pendant as soon as possible.
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. Make sure the
Master ON / OFF switch is ON.
What to expect:
The Red POWER LED will be on solid if the Base unit is connected to power.
TheBluePHONECONNECTIONLEDshouldbeOFF–ifashing,thereisproblemwiththephone
connection.
If the POWER light is on and the Base unit is connected to a working phone line, go on to step 4.
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 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 15) to make sure all is well.
If the System is still not working, call tech support. See page 24 for telephone number.
