DXS-F1SUPERVISEDLONG RANGEFALL DETECTIONPENDANTTRANSMITTEROperation InstructionsPRODUCT DESCRIPTIONThe Model DXS-F1 is a battery powered, miniature, water-resistant*, supervised fall detection pendant transmitter designed for use with Linear PERS Consoles.The transmitter is supplied with an adjustable lanyard with a breakaway release.When a person’s fall is detected by the transmitter’s internal accelerometer, or when the pendant’s button is pressed, a digitally coded wireless signal is sent to the companion Console. The signal indicator on the transmitter lights green when the unit is activated. When activated using the pendant’s button, the transmitter can send a signal for up to 30 seconds per activation. To insure sending a complete signal, press the pendant’s button for a minimum of two seconds.The DXS-F1 transmitter is factory set to a unique code, so no fi eld coding is required. Consoles must be programmed to the transmitter’s code before system testing and operation. Refer to the Console instructions for details on programming.After the fi rst activation, the transmitter will send a status signal every two hours. Every two hours the transmitter also tests for a low battery. If the battery tests low, a low battery signal is sent. If the transmitter is activated with a low battery, the signal indicator will light red.The transmitter is sealed to provide water-resistance. The unit’s battery is not replaceable. The transmitter should be disposed of properly at the end of its battery life.

Radio controls provide a reliable communications link and fi ll an important need in portable wireless signaling. However, there are some limitations which must be observed.• For U.S. installations only: The radios are required to comply with FCC Rules and Regulations as Part 15 devices. As such, they have limited transmitter power and therefore limited range.• A receiver cannot respond to more than one transmitted signal at a time and may be blocked by radio signals that occur on or near their operating frequencies, regardless of code settings.• Infrequently used radio links should be tested regularly to protect against undetected interference or fault.• A general knowledge of radio and its vagaries should be gained prior to acting as a wholesale distributor or dealer, and these facts should be communicated to the ultimate users.This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules and Industry Canada license exempt RSS standard(s).
