Alarm Activation
A Tag detected within the detection zone of a sensor unit causes an audible alarm to sound, followed
by a human voice indication of the risk.
For a single sensor system “Look Out! Person near you”. For dual sensor system “Look out! Person in
front of you” or “Look Out! Person behind you”. The high brightness LEDs on the front panel (in the
shape of a STOP sign) will begin to flash. The siren will repeat approximately every 5 seconds while
the Tag remains in the detection zone, and the LEDs will continue to flash.
When the Tag leaves the detection zone, the LEDs will stop flashing and siren will cease. The alarm
takes around 1 second to stop after Tag leaves the zone.
Mute
If the driver presses the mute switch while an alarm is active, a voice will advise “Speaker Muted” and
the repeating siren will cease. The LEDs will remain flashing as long as the Tag is still in the detection
zone. If the Tag leaves the zone OR another Tag enters, then the alarm resets and starts again
automatically. The driver cannot permanently mute the speaker.
Driver Tag Lockout
The Driver Tag Lockout is a feature that enables the driver to wear a Tag without activating his or her
own vehicle alarm.
Two methods are available:
1.
Press and hold MUTE button longer than 3 seconds, while alarm is active. The driver Tag must
be only tag in detection zone. This method works ok for intermittent use but not
recommended for long-term use due to higher battery consumption. Use Rechargeable Tags
for long-term use. The Driver Tag will UNLOCK automatically when the vehicle is switched off,
ensuring the Tag cannot permanently lock out.
2.
Tag “Disable Pouch”. This pouch mounts to the vehicle. Tags disable while in the pouch and
automatically enable when removed. The driver places the Tag into pouch when operating
the vehicle and then removes the Tag when leaving the vehicle.
