What to expect.
As soon as an alarm is activated the Telephone Dialler will play a loud tune and show a steady GREEN light.
There is then a 20 second delay before dialling which gives the user time to reset any false alarm by either:
ŸClear the alarm by resetting the monitor e.g. Press the P135 HELP Button again
ŸTurn off the dialler (press 1234 (ESC)
After the delay a red alarm light will show which type of alarm message is being sent (fault or user) and the
dialler will start dialling the first number. The audible tone will change to give assurance to the user that dialling
has begun.
The recipient of the message should press * on their phone to acknowledge receipt. This will stop the tone at
the dialler and reassure the user that help is at hand, and prevent any further phone calls being made.
Action following an alarm:
The lights on the back help discern the cause of the alarm, and hence the action needed
After reset of any fault/alarms on the monitor(s) all light will extinguish, except for sporadic flash of the green
light if the Safelink protection signal is active).
No action to reset the dialler is required, it will automatically re-trigger if a new alarm is received

checking the GREEN light flashes in response.
Alternatively an alarm can be stimulated and the audible response heard. The alarm can then be cancelled
The Alert-it system has been designed with due regard to reliability and integrity. While it offers a highly
vigilant monitoring method,it is always possible that a distress condition can go undetected for a variety of
reasons (including malfunction) and in life threatening situations it is advisable to use the Alert-it system in
conjunction with additional monitoring techniques (e.g. video). Neither the manufacturer nor its agent can
accept legal responsibility to provide a system that is infallible. The carer is responsible for assessing the risks
of using this equipment and any settings pertaining to it.
