2 Features
The Carephone HTS50 is used to transmit emergency calls over
the telephone network.
The person requiring emergency assistance activates a call by
pressing a button on the HTS50 or by using an RF transmitter.
This action establishes a telephone connection between the
person requiring assistance and the emergency call recipient,
enabling information to be exchanged and emergency
assistance measures to be initiated.
In addition, the HTS50 can be used to report an emergency
(when used in conjunction with a fire detector, for example).
The device has two basic operating modes:
1. The HTS50 forms part of a social alarm system that
consists of a call centre that can be reached at any time
using the Carephone. Emergency calls are sent to this call
centre.
2. The unit is operated as an individual phone. Emergency
calls are sent to private phones.
The HTS50 can be connected to up to 10 RF detectors.
The unit can also be programmed to initiate service calls
(e.g. "meals on wheels") at the touch of a button.

5.2 S Button
Cancel emergency call
You can use the grey S button to cancel an emergency call,
e.g. if you have pressed the emergency call button by mistake.
To cancel an emergency call,
Xpress the S button until the unit announces stop.
To stop false alarms and emergency calls being made by
mistake, the HTS50 has a pre-alarm.
The pre-alarm is the waiting time which elapses after the alarm
button is pressed and during which the alarm is transmitted.
The time in which the pre-alarm can be cancelled (pre-alarm
time) can be programmed to suit your individual requirements.
The emergency call cannot be cancelled once the pre-alarm
time has expired.
Service call
The S button can also be programmed as a service button.
If you press the button and hold it (for at least 2 seconds), the
unit dials a call number that has been programmed for the
service call, e.g. "meals on wheels".
When this function is activated,
Xpress the S button until you hear the announcement
service call.
The service call number is dialled.

5.3 RF Transmitter
The RF transmitter that is supplied with the HTS50 is used to

and security.
XAlways carry the RF transmitter around with you whenever
you are home.
To make an emergency call using the RF transmitter,
Xpress the button on the RF transmitter.
The indicator light lights up once as confirmation.
The HTS50 sounds the announcement radio button and the

monitoring centre or by a private individual who takes the

An emergency call made in error can be cancelled during the
pre-alarm by pressing the S button on the HTS50, see
Section 5.2 S Button, Page 9.
!
CAUTION! The radio range between the RF transmitter and the
HTS50 depends largely on the environment in which the
devices are used. Test the range within your own home
environment!
