Changing System Status 

When the user wants to leave the premises, the unit 
status must be changed to AWAY mode. The CHECK 
button ( ) should be held down for 5 seconds 
(3 seconds in Intrusion mode). The unit announces and 
displays (AMBER SELECT only) AWAY – REMINDERS 
OFF. In this state no medication reminders and no 
pendant checks will be announced. The unit's speaker is 
disabled and the yellow LED will turn off. In addition, in 
AWAY mode inactivity detection is also disabled. 
If the pendant transmitter button is pressed while in the 
AWAY mode, the unit will sound "EMERGENCY" and 
reports to the Monitoring Center. This initiates two-way 
communication through the speaker. In addition, any 
device that is alarmed while in AWAY mode immediately 
initiates a call to the Monitoring Center (as in HOME 
mode) and also initiates two-way communication. 
To return the status to HOME mode, hold down the 
CHECK button ( ) for 5 seconds. The unit's speaker will 
announce and display (AMBER SELECT only) "HOME – 
REMINDERS ON". The status LED (

) will turn on. 

System status conditions are indicated by the yellow LED.
