GUARD1/tracking Duress Device User's Manual Introduction The Duress Device is a portable device that is worn on a duty belt or lanyard by officers, staff, or visitors. It monitors their status and transmits information to a control room monitor. It can be used to signal an emergency. The Duress Device sends a signal to the Guard1 Tracking system once each second. If this signal is interrupted, the panic button is pressed, or if a secondary condition is detected, an alert is raised in the Guard1 Tracking system. Using the Duress Device The Duress Device has a button on its front, for sending a panic alert. It has one LED, which is used to confirm it is operating and display battery status. The Duress Device has a vibration motor and a beeper. Either one of these may be enabled, or both. This is set at the factory, depending on your organization’s requirements. Charging To charge the Duress Device, place it in the charger. Charging takes approximately three hours. ● ♩ STATUS Single beep entering Charging mode The LED indicates the charge status. There are two stages to the charging process: Flashing red slowly Waiting to charge. Make sure the charger is plugged in. Solid Red Stage 1 Solid Orange Stage 2 Solid Green Charge complete You can remove the Duress Device and use it at any time during the charge sequence. Self Test If you press the button while the Duress Device is in the charger, it will beep and vibrate, and the LED will be solid orange. The Duress Device then returns to normal operation. It's a good idea to test the device each day, before you go on duty. ● ♩ STATUS One beep per second If you press the button for more than ten seconds while the Duress Device is in the charger, it will enter Shipping mode. This must be done before shipping the Duress Device to another facility or back to the manufacturer. To return the device to normal operation, remove it and re-insert it in the charger. Active Mode In active mode, the LED flashes once each second. ✹ ♩ STATUS Single beep entering Active mode The LED will indicate the battery status: green for good, orange for low, and red for discharged. If the battery is low or discharged, place it in its charger as soon as you are able to. Panic Alert To signal an emergency, press the button. This indicates that an emergency exists and you are summoning help immediately. The alert will continue until five minutes have passed, or the Duress Device has been placed in its charger. ✹ ♬ STATUS Double beep once per second The Duress Device will beep and/or vibrate once a second. The LED flashes once each second. As in Active mode, the LED color indicates the battery status. Pressing the button again extends the panic alert. The Duress Device will signal an alert for five minutes from the last button press. Secondary Condition Warning The Duress Device will signal a warning for thirty seconds if one of these conditions exists: The device is not vertical There has been no motion The device has been removed from the holster To stop the warning, correct the condition causing it. ✹ ♪ STATUS One beep every four seconds The Duress Device will beep and/or vibrate once every four seconds. The LED flashes once each second. As in Active mode, the LED color indicates the battery status. Some of these secondary conditions may not be enabled, depending on the requirements of your facility. Secondary Condition Alert If a Secondary Condition Warning exists for thirty seconds, the Duress Device will signal an alert. To stop the alert, correct the condition causing it. ✹ ♬ STATUS Double beep once every four seconds The Duress Device will beep twice and/or vibrate twice, and the LED flashes once each second. As in Active mode, the LED color indicates the battery status. Very Low Battery In normal operation, the battery LED will flash green, then orange, then red as the battery is depleted. After that, if the battery is not charged, the Duress Device will enter Very Low Battery mode. ✹ ♪ STATUS Short "chirp" once every minute The Duress Device will give a distinctive "chirp", and the LED will flash, once every sixty seconds In Very Low Battery mode, you can still use the button to signal a Panic Alert. The Duress Device will transmit a Panic Alert for as long as the battery lasts. Secondary Alerts are disabled in Very Low Battery mode. Once the Duress Device enters Very Low Battery mode, it only has enough power to operate for 20 minutes to one hour. You should return it to the charger as soon as possible.
