What happens if I push my Help Button but cannot get to the Base 

Station?  

If you push your Help Button, stay where you are. An emergency operator will vocally 

communicate with you through your Base Station. 

How do the Emergency Responders know where I am? 

ADT  can  only  dispatch  emergency  responders  to  the  home  address  that  you 

provided  when  you  filled  out  the  ADT  Home  Health  Service  Agreement.  The 

Emergency Operator does not automatically know where your system is located. It is 

important  that  an  accurate,  current  address  be  on  file.  To  update  your  address, 

please call ADT at 800.568.1216 (option 1).  

What if I move to a different home or apartment? 

ADT can transfer your service to your new location if you notify us in writing at least 

30 days prior to your move. Please note that ADT may charge you a fee for each move. 

Why is the Test button on the Base Station blinking green? 

It is important that you test your system at least once a month. To help remind you, 

the  Test  button  will  blink  green  every  30  days.  To  test  the  system,  follow  the 

procedures outlined in “Step 4. Testing the Base Station” on page 10.
