OWNER’S MANUAL Model #MED01 OPTIONAL TELEPHONE CONFIGURATIONS IF YOUR TELEPHONE SYSTEM IS DSL: If you use DSL service, you should already have a DSL filter in place to use with the MediPendant™ system to ensure maximum functionality. If not, a filter can be purchased at a local hardware store, or by calling our toll free customer service number. See Figure 9A ER ILT LF DS Figure 9A (OPTIONAL ACCESSORY) IF YOUR TELEPHONE SYSTEM IS VoIP: Voice-over-Internet Protocol (VoIP) sends your calls over the Internet instead of through the regular telephone system. MediPendant™ will work on some VoIP systems; however, unlike traditional telephone services, some VoIP service providers are not compatible with the MediPendant™ system. (e.g. VONAGE, SKYPE) Please follow the steps on the previous pages to install your system and test it immediately to determine if it is working properly. NOTE: Medical Alarm Concepts makes no guarantee or warranty that the MediPendant™ will work properly at the time of an emergency when using it over a VoIP telephone service and strongly urges users to rely on a traditional land line telephone service when using the MediPendant™. You are now ready to test your MediPendant™ system. See TESTING YOUR MediPendant™ FOR THE FIRST TIME on page 10. IF YOU ARE HAVING DIFFICULTY INSTALLING YOUR MediPendant™ SYSTEM, PLEASE CALL THE CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT Phone #: _________________________________________________ MediPendant™ TESTING YOUR MediPendant™ FOR THE FIRST TIME STEP 1 Press and hold the LARGE ROUND GREY button for 3 seconds on the front of the pendant. See Figure 10A Figure 10A STEP 2 You will hear the pendant say, “Your emergency call is now being dialed, please stand by.” It will say this multiple times. The green light on the pendant will illuminate indicating that it has been activated and will remain illuminated during the entire conversation with the emergency operator. See Figure 10B Figure 10B STEP 3 You will then hear a dial tone, followed by a dialing sequence. This is an indication that your pendant is attempting to call the monitoring center. STEP 4 When dialing sequence is completed, your pendant will again say, “Your emergency call is now being dialed, please stand by.” STEP 5 Soon after, there will be a brief period of silence. This means that your pendant is talking to the monitoring center, and establishing communication. 10 OWNER’S MANUAL Model #MED01 STEP 6 Wait a few moments to hear the operator’s voice through the pendant identifying themselves and asking you if everything is OK. STEP 7 Identify yourself with the operator and tell him/her that you are simply testing your system. STEP 8 Follow the operator’s instructions to complete the test. NOTE: The operating range of the MediPendant™ depends on many factors. It is designed to work in and outside of your home. When in use, the pendant will emit a beep if you are out of range when talking to an operator. Before using it is required that you perform the proper tests in order to determine the unit’s operating ranges at the location(s) where it will be used in and around your residence. THE BASE STATION WILL EMIT A BEEP IN THE FOLLOWING SITUATIONS: • AC power is lost – In this situation, the POWER indicator on the top of the base station will flash RED • Battery power is low – In this situation, the POWER indicator on the top of the base station will flash RED • Telephone line is disconnected – In this situation, the PHONE LINE indicator on the top of the base station will flash RED, but the POWER indicator will stay GREEN NOTE: TO SILENCE ANY TONE FROM THE BASE STATION, simply press the Silent button on the top right corner of the base station.

See Figure 12A Once connected, you can speak directly with the call center operator and explain the nature of your emergency. If you press the button but are unable to speak, the operator can still listen in for sounds of distress. If no voices/sounds are detected, the operator will dispatch help. Figure 12A NOTE: IF SOMEONE IS USING THE PHONE THAT IS CONNECTED TO YOUR BASE STATION AND THE EMERGENCY BUTTON ON THE PENDANT IS PRESSED, THE BASE STATION WILL AUTOMATICALLY END THE NORMAL CALL AND TAKE THE LINE FOR THE EMERGENCY CALL RIGHT AWAY. THIS IS CALLED LINE SEIZURE. IF SOMEONE IS USING A PHONE IN YOUR HOME NOT CONNECTED TO YOUR BASE STATION, THE PENDANT CAN NOT CALL OUT OR CONTACT THE CALL CENTER. THE PENDANT CAN ONLY INTERRUPT THE CALL ON THE PHONE CONNECTED TO THE BASE STATION. 12 OWNER’S MANUAL Model #MED01 BASE STATION FUNCTIONS The base station has a back-up battery that can provide emergency power. When the base station is plugged in properly, the POWER indicator on the top of the base station will remain illuminated SOLID GREEN. See Figure 13A On = System in Use On = System in Use POWER Blinking = Phone Line Trouble Silent POWER Blinking = Phone Line Trouble Silent SET UP SET UP Figure 13A In the event of a power outage, the POWER indicator on the top of the base station will FLASH RED and the unit will beep, indicating the base station has lost electrical power and is now functioning via the back-up battery. Press the SILENT/SET UP button at the top of the base station to stop beeping. See Figure 13B When the battery in the base station reaches minimum power required for operation, the POWER indicator on the top of the base station will remain illuminated SOLID RED, indicating that the system is no longer operational until power is restored. See Figure 13B On = System in Use On = System in Use POWER Blinking = Phone Line Trouble Silent POWER Blinking = Phone Line Trouble Silent SET UP SET UP Figure 13B Once the power is restored and the battery recharges, the RED light goes out and changes back to SOLID GREEN. See Figure 13A ALTHOUGH THE SYSTEM IS SUPERVISED AND CHECKS IN WITH THE CALL CENTER, WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU VOLUNTARILY TEST YOUR SYSTEM AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK TO ENSURE ITS FUNCTIONALITY. 13 MediPendant™ WEARING YOUR MediPendant™ Your pendant should be worn at all times. You have the option of wearing it around your neck, on a belt using the supplied clip, around your wrist, or simply carried in your pocket. ATTACHING THE LANYARD TO YOUR MediPendant™ See Figure 14A Our lanyard is designed with a break-away safety feature to help avoid accidents. See Figure 14B Figure 14B Figure 14A ATTACHING THE MediPendant™ TO THE BELT CLIP See Figure 14C Pendant slides down into holder which can be clipped to belt or shirt.

When the emergency response operator answers, speak in a normal voice and explain the nature of your emergency. There is no need to put the pendant up to your ear unless you are having trouble hearing. There is no need to hold the pendant up to your mouth. You will be clearly heard, even if the pendant is an arm’s length away. Figure 15A NOTE: IF YOU PRESS THE BUTTON BUT ARE UNABLE TO SPEAK, THE OPERATOR CAN STILL LISTEN IN FOR SOUNDS OF DISTRESS. IF NO VOICES/SOUNDS ARE DETECTED, THE OPERATOR WILL DISPATCH HELP. AT THAT TIME, YOUR PENDANT WILL AUTOMATICALLY RESET AND GO INTO A SLEEP MODE. NOTE: IF THERE IS AN ACCIDENTAL, UNWANTED ACTIVATION, you will still have the ability to speak directly into the pendant and inform the emergency call center operator that there is no emergency. NOTE: If you are connected to the emergency call center and your pendant emits a beep during the call, it is an indicator that you are getting out of range of the base station and should move closer. 15 MediPendant™ BATTERY TEST The MediPendant™ has a BATTERY/SYSTEM TEST BUTTON on the bottom of the pendant. It is used to check both the condition of the battery and to make sure the unit is functioning properly. This test should only be performed when your pendant is not being used in an actual emergency. To test the battery status, press and release the BATTERY/SYSTEM TEST BUTTON located on the bottom of the pendant. You will feel it click. It will then announce the battery condition. See Figure 16A You will hear one of the following messages: ‘Battery is OK’ This indicates the battery condition is fine and there is no need to replace it. The LED on the front of the pendant will illuminate RED for one second. See Figure 16A ‘Replace battery soon’ This indicates the battery should be replaced within the next two weeks. The LED on the front of the pendant will blink two times. See Figure 16A ‘Replace battery now’ Battery should be replaced immediately. The LED on the front of the pendant will NOT illuminate at all. See INSTALLING/REPLACING THE BATTERY on page 18. NOTE: Battery should be tested often. Figure 16A 16 OWNER’S MANUAL Model #MED01 SYSTEM/RANGE TEST You can manually test your system at any time. Simply press and hold the BATTERY/SYSTEM TEST BUTTON on the bottom of the unit for three seconds. See Figure 17A The unit will first announce the battery status followed by, "System check, please stand by.” The pendant will turn on and send a test signal to the base station to confirm all functions are working properly. This also confirms that the pendant is within acceptable range of the base station. Figure 17A When the test mode is active, the RED LED on the front of the pendant illuminates for two seconds followed by an audio announcement confirming all functions are okay. You will hear one of the following messages: ‘System check all functions are OK’ Once it’s completed the pendant will return to standby mode and is ready for use. ‘System test failed’ See TROUBLESHOOTING section on page 19. If problem persists, call customer service immediately to determine the nature of the problem with your system. NOTE: DO NOT PRESS BATTERY/SYSTEM TEST BUTTON DURING AN EMERGENCY CALL OR THE PENDANT WILL HANG UP/DISCONNECT THE CALL. NOTE: The operating range of the MediPendant™ depends on many factors. It is designed to work in and outside of your home. Before using it is required that you perform the proper tests in order to determine the unit’s operating ranges at the location(s) where it will be used in and around your residence. If you fail to properly test for the unit’s range in your residence, the system may fail or otherwise become temporarily inoperable if the User strays beyond the communication range between the pendant and base station. If this occurs, the pendant will emit a beep during use indicating it is out of range. In that case, the User may not receive the medical attention sought and risks serious personal injury or death. It is the User’s sole responsibility to determine how far from the base station in any particular residence the pendant will operate. 17 MediPendant™ INSTALLING/REPLACING THE BATTERY The pendant operates on one (1) lithium photo 123 battery. While your pendant comes with one battery pre-installed, a second one is provided for your convenience and should be stored in an easily accessible place. Lithium photo 123 batteries are available at most drug and convenience stores – or can be purchased through our toll-free customer service number. The pendant allows up to 6 hours of talk time and under normal use, the battery will last 6 to 12 months (depending on talk time). PENDANT BATTERY INSTALLATION See Figure 18A O-ring STEP 1: Remove cover on back of pendant by removing screws using supplied screwdriver. BATTE RY STEP 2: Insert battery following + / – indication inside pendant. STEP 3: Slide screw through O-ring, placing O-ring at top of screw before fastening. STEP 4: Replace cover on back of pendant replacing screws. Figure 18A NOTE: Screws for battery door are 2 different lengths. Please make sure longer screws are at top of pendant and O-rings are properly installed. BASE STATION BATTERY INSTALLATION See Figure 18B Your base station battery is pre-installed and should not have to be replaced. If the battery does need to be replaced, follow the steps below. STEP 1: Remove cover on back of base station. STEP 2: Unplug used battery from terminal clips. STEP 3: Install new battery to terminal clips. Make certain terminals line up properly to avoid accidental damage. STEP 4: Replace cover on back of base station. 18 Terminal Clip Base Station Battery Base Station Cover Figure 18B OWNER’S MANUAL Model #MED01 TROUBLESHOOTING QUESTION: I’ve followed all of the installation instructions and my pendant still doesn’t work. What can I do? ANSWER: Check the base station connections. Ensure the AC/DC adapter is plugged into a live power outlet and also into the base station. The GREEN POWER indicator on the top of the base station should be illuminated. If power outlet is controlled by a wall switch, make sure that the switch is in the ON position. See STEPS 2-4 of INSTALLING YOUR MediPendant™ on pages 6 and 7. Confirm that the telephone line coming from the wall jack is plugged into the base station in the YELLOW jack marked PHONE LINE IN FROM WALL OUTLET. See STEP 5 of INSTALLING YOUR MediPendant™ on page 8. Press and hold the BATTERY/SYSTEM TEST BUTTON on the bottom of the pendant for 3 seconds. See Figure 17A on page 17. The unit should announce battery status followed by, "System check, please stand by.” The pendant will turn on and send a test signal to the base station to confirm all functions are working properly. If nothing happens, the most likely cause is that the battery is dead or has been installed improperly. See INSTALLING/REPLACING THE BATTERY on page 18. PENDANT/BASE STATION SYNCHRONIZATION The pendant and the base station are connected by a wireless radio signal. They need to be synchronized to work. All systems are synchronized prior to shipment. However, in some cases, you may need to re-synchronize your system. Press the button on the base station marked SILENT/SET UP for three seconds. The RED PHONE LINE INDICATOR LED will illuminate. Press and hold the LARGE GREY BUTTON on the pendant simultaneously with the BATTERY/SYSTEM TEST BUTTON on the bottom of the pendant for a few moments until the green LED on the right side of the pendant blinks. Once the pendant and the base unit are synchronized, the green LED on the pendant and the red LED on the base station will go out and your pendant will now be synchronized to the base station. If done properly, you will hear the voice announcement, “System check. All systems are okay.” IF YOU STILL HAVING DIFFICULTY WITH YOUR MediPendant™ SYSTEM, PLEASE CALL THE CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT Phone #: _________________________________________________ 19 MediPendant™ GENERAL WARNINGS 1 The MediPendant™ is designed ONLY for residential use with tone dialing systems.
