Intended use: The FA223S-LTH portable transmitter utilizes Ino-
vonics 900MHz Frequency Agile
®
technology. The transmitter,
intended to be installed and serviced by licensed professionals,
transmits messages to an Inovonics receiver. Once activated, the
transmitter “latches” in alarm mode until manually reset.
The FA223S-LTH has a water-resistant housing that protects the
pendant when worn in the shower, rain, or other environments
where the pendant may be splashed with water. It is not, how-
ever, designed to be submerged.
•
To activate the FA223S, press and hold the Transmit Button for at least
1 second. (Actual minimum activation interval is .700 second.)
•
Alarm signals are transmitted multiple times, and are indicated by the
blinking transmit LED.
•
When the button is released, the FA223S-LTH will complete its alarm
transmission, then will continue to send alarm signals every 3 seconds
until the Reset is pushed. It then sends a restoral signal.
