BASIC PROGRAMMING
Programming the device is done by sending SMS/Text commands from your own smart phone to the
device.
The device is a highly customisable personal alarm with multiple adjustable parameters that can be pro-
grammed for a wide range of capabilities specific to a users individual circumstances and needs. As such,
this quick start guide is designed to get the basics and essentials programmed.
The following programming settings are the basics based upon feedback from our REAL WORLD kiwi
customers who use this device on a daily basis, and covers what matter most for them. These settings
suit approximately 95% of our real world client scenarios, however further customisation and program-
ming instruction can be found in the SMS Programming guide and Master List documents.

Emergency sequence description if programming to above recommendations
If a user actives the SOS (Press SOS for 2 seconds), the device sends an SMS to all emergency contacts
simultaneously. Contacts will receive SMS message from the device including Name,
‘
Help Me
’
message,
time & location data with internet maps link. At this point, any available emergency contacts would im-
mediately respond by calling the device to make contact and establish communication. The user waits
for the first responder to call with the device automatically answering incoming calls after 5 seconds and
voice to voice communications are established (Like a speaker phone).
Please note; The Fall detection is already set to ON as default. Adjustments to sensitivity can be done by
consulting the SMS Programming guide.
* This sets the Emergency/SOS button to only send SMS messages to the nominated contacts and dis-
bales all
‘
Calling Out
’
functions. In real world scenarios, users will want the first available person to be
able to respond immediately instead of having to wait for outgoing calls to be answered which engages
the line preventing others making contact.
