Registering a personal radio trigger
Lifeline 4000 can accept radio inputs from Amie and GEM personal triggers, as well as the Fall
Detector trigger. For background information on how radio triggers work with Lifeline 4000 please
see the Lifeline 4000 User Guide.
Lifeline can also accept radio input from other devices. For example, alarm pull cords, smoke
detectors, temperature monitors and many other types of device can each be linked to a Tunstall
Radio Output Module to allow them to send radio signals to Lifeline. This can save on the cost and
inconvenience of installing wires. This section deals only with registering Amie and GEM personal
radio triggers. See the section on triggers in the
Programming Reference
in chapter 3 for
information on registering and configuring different types of trigger.

How does Lifeline know which radio triggers belong to it?
Each radio trigger has an identification number automatically entered into it when it is made at
the factory. When a radio trigger is set off it transmits this identification number. Lifeline listens
for any radio transmissions on a particular frequency. If it detects a signal it checks the number
that has been sent. Next, Lifeline looks through each of the parameters that hold radio trigger
identification numbers to see if there is a match between the number it has received and one of
the numbers in its memory. In other words, Lifeline asks the question,
Does the transmitted number
match the number of any of the radio triggers that belong to me?
Registering a trigger
To register a radio trigger all you have to do is enter its
identification number in one of the radio trigger
parameters. This is a simple two-step process. First, you
select a parameter, and then you press the alarm button
on the GEM or Amie radio trigger. Lifeline listens for the
number that is transmitted and puts it into the parameter
you have selected.
More than three personal triggers
You can have more than three personal radio triggers registered to one Lifeline 4000 if needed. In
total, you can have up to 18 personal triggers. To register further triggers you need to consult the
section on triggers in the
Programming Reference
in chapter 3.
