Fall Detector™
312.00MHz
Installation and User Guide
What is the fall detector?
Your fall detector™ is a battery operated device
containing a microprocessor, detector and a radio
transmitter. It will automatically trigger an alarm call on
your personal emergency response system if it detects that
you have fallen. You can also use it to manually raise an
alarm call.

Installation and User Guide
Wearing the fall detector
Clip the fall detector to your belt or clothing in the upright
position shown in the drawing. It needs to be in the upright
position to reduce the possibility of false activation.
Correct upright position
Incorrect position
NOTE: An optional Belt and Holster is available (Part Number
D6609001C).

Automatic fall detection
•
•
•
•
•
Green light and two "beeps" indicate that the fall
detector has been activated.
The fall detector will then monitor for between 6
and 15 seconds to verify if there could have been a
fall. The green light will flash while it does this.
If the detector has decided that there is a fall, then a
red light and four "beeps" indicates that the fall
detector is about to trigger an alarm call (because it
has detected an impact and has not been upright
for between 6 and 15 seconds).
If the detector has decided that it was activated by
error then the green flashing light will stop after
between 6 to 15 Seconds and the unit will revert to
normal again.
Due to the complex dynamics of falling, all falls may
not be detected. In this unlikely event the manual
button can still be used to call for help.
Manual operation
•
•
•
Press the button on the fall detector to raise a
manual alarm call.
The fall detector will "beep" and a red light
indicates the fall detector is triggering an alarm
call.
If the red light flashes on and off, the fall detector is
still triggering an alarm call, but is also indicating to
you that the battery needs to be replaced.
Remember, the fall detector will only detect you falling if
you are wearing it.

The fall detector must be worn at or above the
waist, where it will detect the maximum number of
falls.
When removing the fall detector, handle carefully
to avoid false calls, place it on an even surface in
the upright position and preferably in the stand
provided.
If the fall detector does wake up and beep when
you know you have not fallen, you can prevent it
raising an alarm by ensuring that it is returned to an
upright position.
It is not recommended that you wear the fall
detector whilst in bed, as normal movement in bed
will cause the fall detector to trigger.

Battery Replacement
From time to time the battery will need replacing, you will
know this because somebody from your monitoring service
(if you have one) may inform you, or you may see the red
light flashing rather than staying on continuously when a
manual alarm call is made.
• The unit automatically tests the battery several
times within each 24 hour period. It is able to
automatically generate an alarm call when low
battery is detected.
• If it is necessary for you to change the battery, the
fall detector uses a 6 volt Duracell PX28L battery.
• After a year the battery should be replaced. Contact
your provider for a replacement. In many cases your
provider will change the battery for you. On the back
of this user guide is a handy table to help you
remember when the battery should be changed.

Installation and User Guide
To replace the battery
1) To access the battery, remove the battery cover
screw
2) Then remove the battery cover by sliding it in the
direction of the arrow.
3) Remove battery and replace it with the new battery,
remember to observe the correct orientation. When
the battery is first placed in the unit an automatic
test call will be generated (no lights will show and
no buzzer will sound).
4) Replace the sliding cover and the screw. Test the
fall detector by making a manual call. Inform the
operator that you are making a battery test call.
5) If the device fails to make a test call then check the
orientation of the battery. If this is correct then
contact your supplier.
NOTE: Dispose of used battery in accordance with the latest
legislation. Do not dispose of in household waste.

Care of the fall detector
•
•
•
•
•
Avoid getting the fall detector wet (if it does then
dry it quickly and make a manual test call to confirm
it is working correctly).
If required, the fall detector may be cleaned
periodically with a damp cloth and mild detergent.
It is recommended that you test the fall detector
once a month:
Make a manual test call.
Start with the fall detector vertical. Place the fall
detector horizontal and then tap within 3 seconds
after placing horizontal. After 5 Seconds the fall
detector should beep and the green light start to
flash. If you put the unit quickly back upright (in its
stand, for instance), the alarm call will not be raised.
