ADLife
The Tunstall Vi+ can be used to provide activities of daily living monitoring using its
ADLife functionality. Using ADLife, each time a telecare sensor (see Programming
telecare sensors for ADLife below) is activated the information is stored in the
Tunstall Vi+ along with the time of activation. Each night the Tunstall Vi+ sends this
data to the PNC5/6 monitoring centre which forwards the collected data over a
secure internet connection to the ADLife server where it can be accessed via the
ADLife website by authorised users. This allows the carer to view activity trends and
helps them to recognise potential declines in health before an incident occurs.
How to set up ADLife
1. Obtain an ADLife ID number from Tunstall
– this will be supplied when you take
out a 12 month ADLife licence with Tunstall
2. Determine the telephone number(s) of the PNC5/6 which will be used to receive
the ADLife data from the unit. This may be the same PNC5/6 that normal alarm
calls are sent to but can be a different PNC5/6 if required.
Programming telecare sensors for ADLife
ADLife uses only the following standard Tunstall telecare sensors to generate ADLife
data.
Electrical Usage Sensor
Universal Sensor (used for door usage or transmitter for the bed/chair sensor)
Bed/Chair Occupancy Sensor
Fast PIR
These should be installed and programmed to the Tunstall Vi+ in the following way:
1. Determine where in the property, the telecare sensors should be fitted
2. Assign the telecare sensors to the unit and ensure the correct location is
specified
– this can be done using ‘plug and play’ and quick code 4zxx (see page
16) or by using PC Connect.
3. If Bed/Chair sensors with a control unit (part number 41005/13) are being used,
then when using the PDA programming software, ensure the
‘Enable ADLife data’
box is ticked as shown in the diagram below.
