Pendant Transmitter
1. INTRODUCTION
The MCT-241 is a PowerCodeTM miniature, microprocessorcontrolled personal UHF transmitter. It is designed to transmit coded alert signal in distress or in other emergency situations. The transmitter is waterproof and suitable for wearing in a shower.
The transmitter is activated by depressing the recessed oval pushbutton at the center of the unit (see Fig. 1). A built-in timer determines the transmission time to 3 seconds, even if the user maintains the transmission button depressed shorter or longer than that.
When triggered, the transmitter transmits a unique, factory programmed, randomly selected 24-bit digital alarm code. This code is selected from 16 million possible codes and is therefore unique and virtually impossible to reproduce.
Operating power is obtained from an internal 3V Lithium battery.
A red LED (see Fig. 1) lights steadily during the transmission, giving reassurance to the user and indicating that the battery condition is good. If the LED flashes each time the transmitter is activated, it indicates that the battery voltage is low and must be replaced as soon as possible.
The transmitter case is sealed (no screws) to enable the waterproof feature. Therefore, battery replacement can only be done in the factory.
If the transmitter is activated while the battery voltage is low, a `low battery' alarm code is transmitted. If the transmitter is not activated for a long period, the battery is self-tested every 12 hours. After three consecutive `low battery' states, a supervisory `low battery' alarm code is transmitted.
The transmitter case is waterproof, hermetically sealed (no screws) and therefore disposable. Do not attempt to open the transmitter case or replace the battery; such action will void the warranty.
The transmitter is supplied with two wearing accessories, a neck cord (to be worn around the neck - see figure 2) and a clip (to be attached to the user belt or shirt pocket - see figure 3).
The neck cord includes a built-in safety release mechanism. This neck cord must never be replaced with a cord that does not include a safety release.

3. MISCELLANEOUS COMMENTS
3.1 Product Limitations
Our wireless systems are very reliable and are tested to high standards. However, due to their low transmitting power (required by FCC, DTI and other regulating authorities) there are some limitations to be considered: A. Receivers may be blocked by radio signals occurring on or
near their operating frequencies, regardless of the code selected. B. A receiver can only respond to one transmitted signal at a time. C. Wireless equipment should be tested regularly (at least once a week) to determine if there are sources of interference and to protect against faults.
WARNING: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
3.2 Frequency Allocations for Wireless Devices in European (EU) Countries
433.92 MHz has no restriction in any EU member state.
315 MHz is not allowed in any EU member state
868.95 MHz (wide band) is allowed in all EU member states 869.2625 MHz (narrow band) is not restricted in any EU
member state.
3.3 Battery Replacement/Handling
The internal Lithium battery replacement can be done only in the factory. Since the product has a Lithium battery, please observe the following handling instructions: Do not dispose of batteries in fires. Do not short circuit. Observe correct polarity of cells. Do not crush. Do not puncture. Do not open. Do not dismantle. Do not expose to temperatures in excess of 60C
