Programming Personal Help Buttons (PHB) and Other Devices -
Overview
The MXD3G unit can be programmed to recognize numerous PHBs and other devices. This is done in
the following high level steps:
1.
Place the MXD3G base unit in the programming mode for the desired group using the T/L and
RESET buttons in the sequences described below
2.
Send a signal from the device to the MXD3G base unit, so that the base unit can “learn” the
code into its memory
3.
Program additional devices, if any, into the selected group
4.
Select the next group into which devices are to be programmed
5.
Program the devices into the new group
6.
Continue until all devices are programmed into the desired groups
7.
Return the MXD3G to normal operation mode at any time by pressing the RESET button
8.
Test each device to verify that they are programmed correctly and are reporting to the response
center under the correct group
The following paragraphs describe each of the above steps in more detail.
MXD3G PHB and Other Device Groups
Device codes are stored in one or more groups for each type of device. The following groups are
available for each type of device:
Type of Device

Number of Devices that can be
stored in Each Group

PHB Groups:
Codes for up to four different PHBs can be programmed into
a single
PHB group. All devices within a
single group are treated by the MXD3G as if they were the same device when the MXD3G reports a
signal to the response center. This allows a subscriber to have more than one PHB that always is
recognized in the same way.
