1. Introduction
The remote assistance device allows you to call recorded numbers by mobile phone and can be programmed by sending an SMS message to the phone number of the
SIM installed within it. The hands-free call is sent by pressing the “ALARM” push button on board or using the push button on the bracelet/pendant accessory supplied, or
another device connected to the interface art. 03895. The device can also receive incoming calls with automatic answering.
CAUTION: This is not a medical life-saving device. The correct emergency reporting may depend on external factors such as cell signal reception, status of the net-
work, availability of residual credit, etc.

2.2. The Power Supply
The remote assistance device can be powered by either AC power or backup battery.
AC Power
A DC 9V 1A SPS power adapter is provided for AC power connection.
- When AC power is connected, the Green LED will turn steady on to indicate AC connection.
- When AC power is disconnected, the Green LED will flash once every 5 seconds to indicate AC failure, the remote assistance device will signal an AC failure report.
Backup Battery
In addition to the AC power adapter, a rechargeable battery is installed inside 03890 to serve as a backup in case of a power failure.
- During normal operation, the AC power adapter is used to supply power to 03890 and at the same time recharge the battery. It takes approximately 72 hours to fully
charge the battery.
- If the battery switch is set to OFF, the battery will not be charged when AC power is connected and nor will it serve as a backup power source when AC power is
missing. You need to switch the battery to ON for it to be charged when AC power is connected and serve as a backup power source when AC power is missing.

4. Call cycle operation
This section presents the operation of the call cycle the device carries out. The logic depends on parameter 3 of the RPT programming control which specifies the group
the phone number to call belongs to.
Each programming slot can be associated with a single group.
4.1 Call cycle within the same group
If multiple phone numbers are programmed within the same group, the remote assistance device will call the numbers in the order defined by the programming slot (from 1
to 5). The device will stop calling as soon as one of the numbers answers the call. This means that the device will not call any numbers that may be left on the list and the
call cycle ends
Example
2 numbers have been programmed (parameter 2 of the RPT control) at programming slot 1 and 3 (parameter 1 of the RPT control) and both have been assigned to group
1 (parameter 3 of the RPT control). The remote assistance device will start to call the number saved in index 1 and if:
- the number called answers, the device will consider the call cycle ended;
- the number called does NOT answer, the device will call the second number on the list.
If the second number called answers, the cycle will be considered ended. If one or both numbers called do not answer, the device will attempt to call each number up to 4
times. After these first 4 call attempts for each number, the device waits 5 minutes then starts the call cycle again. At the third call cycle without answers, the device stops.
Supposing none of the numbers answer the representation of the cycle described in the example is as shown below.
Group 1
4 attempts per number
4 attempts per number
4 attempts per number
1st call cycle
2nd call cycle
3rd call cycle
5 minutes
5 minutes
If during any of the attempts within any of the call cycles one of the two numbers answers the cycle ends.

4.2 Call cycle for several groups
If 1 or more phone numbers are programmed to at least 2 groups, the remote assistance device will call the numbers in the order defined by the programming slot (from 1 to
5). After the first group has ended, regardless of whether there was an answer or not, the device will move on and call the numbers in the subsequent group. The device will
end the call cycle as soon as at least one of the call attempts to a number in one group was successful and all the numbers in the groups have been called.
Example
2 numbers have been programmed (parameter 2 of the RPT control) at programming slot 1 and 4 (parameter 1 of the RPT control) and 2 more numbers at slot 2 and 3.
Numbers 1 and 4 have been assigned to group 1 whereas numbers 2 and 3 to group 2. The remote assistance device will start to call the number saved in index 1 and if:
- the number answers, the device will consider the call cycle towards that group ended, moving on to the first number saved for the next group;
- the number does not answer, the device will move on to the second number in the same group regardless of whether there is an answer or not and will then move on to
the first number in the next group.
As in the previous case, the cycle will end after 3 call cycles. Supposing one of the numbers saved answers the second attempt the representation of the cycle described
in the example is as shown below.
Group 1
4 attempts per number in group 1
1st call cycle
2nd call cycle
5 minutes
Group 2
4 attempts per number in group 1
4 attempts per number in group 2
4 attempts per number in group 2
Number 4 answers
Number 4 answers so the device, after the call ends, moves on to the next group (where nobody answers). The cycle ends and is not repeated a third time because at least
one number answered in one of the two groups.
5. Voicemail
It is advisable to disable voicemail on the numbers programmed as recipients of the emergency reports. The device considers the reporting to have been made correctly
when it receives the “pick up” message from the recipient and in the case of a voicemail it could interpret the voicemail answer incorrectly and consider the call cycle as
ended.
To disable the voicemail on the programmed number please contact your phone operator
6. Power supply
In the event the mains power supply is interrupted for more than 5 consecutive minutes, in order to preserve its battery charge, the device sends a notification SMS message
and de-energises the cellular module. During the power supply outage, the following is therefore not possible:
- programming the device by sending control SMS messages (the latter will in actual fact be performed as soon as the power supply is restored);
- receiving incoming calls.
The emergency call function remains operational: when the button is pressed, the device re-enables the cellular module. What’s more, the periodic test message continues
to be sent to notify the status of the battery.
N.B.:
• It takes approximately 20 seconds to re-enable the cellular module, after which the device will start the call cycle consisting of 20 seconds guard time and the time required
to complete the call cycles (see the relevant section of the manual for details). At the end of the cycle, the device will return to energy saving mode, disabling the cellular
module again. The status LEDs during the device not powered and not calling phase will flash green (to indicate no power supply) and red (to indicate the cellular module
is off) respectively.
•If the battery charge level reaches 20% the device sends a flat battery notification SMS message: “VCP-LTE low battery, battery 20%”. When the battery is completely flat,
the red LED varies its ON/OFF frequency to once a second. In this state, the messages relating to the device status are not sent.
7. International dialling code
The programming of numbers preceded by an international dialling code to make calls is permitted both with the + prefix and with the 00 variant (e.g. +39 or 0039). To pro-
gramme favourite incoming numbers, the use of the prefix in the programming field is forbidden, otherwise the incoming call will NOT be received automatically.

8. SMS Remote Programming
The device is programmed by sending specific SMS message controls to the number of the SIM in the device. When each SMS message control is sent, the device answers
with a SMS message containing the name of the control sent followed by <OK>.
If no message is received or an ERROR message is received, followed by the control name, the sending/receipt/execution was not successful.
The word PROG is non-editable. The access code used (1111) corresponds to the last 4 last digits of the IMEI shown on the tracking label on the back of the device.
The general procedure is as follows:
1. Enter the SMS screen on your mobile phone or smartphone.
2. Enter the programming control (see the SMS remote programming controls tables below).
3. Enter a colon (:).
4. Enter SMS Keyword (default is PROG).
5. Enter a comma (,).
6. Enter the Access Code (default is 1111).
7. Enter a comma (,).
8. Enter the parameter(s).
9. The composition of the control is completed. You can send the control to 03890 now.
