Fall Detection – How It Works
The Fall Detection only takes a few seconds
to interpret the movement and determine if
an actual fall has occurred. If a fall is determined,
the device will send a signal which will initiate
a call to the emergency response center.
Remember, always press your button if able,
as some falls many not be detectable.
To cancel a call made due to a Fall Detect event,
aer you hear the announcement, press the
HELP button on your main device for two seconds
when prompted. The device will announce,
“Your call has been canceled.”
We recommend that you wear your device
around your neck so that it rests at chest level
to avoid unnecessary swinging. Make sure the
emergency button is facing forward, making
it easier for you to press in the event of an
emergency. Wear outside your clothing as
wearing it inside can reduce the percentage
of falls being detected.
The Fall Detection Pendant
does not detect 100% of falls.
Always press your button if you are able,
as some falls may not be detectable.
