Reporting Mains Failure
If Homelink loses mains power it turns off the green
a
light in order to alert
the user. Homelink can also report silently to the monitoring centre that it has
lost mains power. To set this up correctly:
1.
Switch Mains Fail "on" in the Reporting Map to select the phone
number to which Homelink should report this event.
2.
Select Mains Fail Delay
if you want Homelink to ignore short power
breaks. If the mains failure lasts for less than the time you have
programmed then Homelink will not report it.
Note that Homelink adds between one and 15 minutes to the time you
programmed. This is to make sure that the monitoring centre is not
flooded with calls from several Homelinks programmed with the same
delay.
3. Select
Mains
Fail
Warning if you want
an audible alarm to alert the
user.
4.
Select Mains Restoral on the Reporting Map to report to the monitoring
centre that mains power has been restored.
Note that this facility only operates if Homelink is fitted with a working backup
battery. Homelink can operate for a minimum of 30 hours from a fully-
charged battery. Once mains power is restored Homelink can recharge the
battery to 90% of its capacity in 12 hours.
Reporting Low Battery
If the battery is low Homelink flashes the green
a
light. Homelink can also
report this event to the monitoring centre.
After sending a battery low report Homelink can still make emergency calls
for a short period. Eventually, when the battery is almost fully drained
Homelink will switch off. At this point the user can still use the telephone
attached to Homelink. The user can also press the orange Emergency
button. Homelink will power itself up for the duration of the Emergency call.
To set up low battery reporting set Low Battery to on for the appropriate
telephone number in the Reporting Map. Use the Low Battery Warning
Option if you want to give the user an audible warning when the battery is
low.
Pendant Battery Low
All the radio triggers can report when their internal battery is running low.
They send the report when they are triggered during normal use. To program
Homelink to pass these reports on to the monitoring centre switch Pendant
Battery Low on against the appropriate telephone number in the Reporting
Map .
