Question/Problem
Answer/Check points
What if I lose my bal-
ance and fall down for
just a few seconds
when walking on a
slippy road. Does the
sensor start alerting
right away?
You can set the sensor so that it allows some
time to pass before it reacts to this kind of
momentary tumble.
Key in a value to
No-alarm duration
. See
PAGE 54
.
Is there any way to
cancel the sensor alert
once this allowed time
(i.e.
No-alarm dura-
tion
) passes by?
Yes. By keying in a value to
Pre-alarm duration
,
you can determine "cancellation period" for the
sensor alert.
When the sensor starts alerting, the countdown
timer shows the time, during which you can still
cancel the alert (by lifting the phone up). See
PAGE 54
.
The sensor makes
annoying sounds dur-
ing cancellation
period. Is there any
way to get it silenced?
To silence the sensor tone permanently, set the
volume level to zero (volume tab located on the
leftmost edge) in the activated emergency envi-
ronment. See
PAGE 42
.
To mute the sensor tone momentarily, press
the left soft key
.
.
The emergency cycle
is over, and the sensor
is still making sounds
- every other minute.
Is there any way to get
it muted?
Yes. Lift the phone to vertical position.
The phone will make sounds in order to help
rescuers to find you in case you are half-dead,
unable to move yourself or use your own voice.
You can also determine, how often the sound is
made by setting a value for
Post-alarm interval
on
PAGE 55
.
I would like to use the
sensor as Horizontal
sensor.
The Vertical sensor turns to be Horizontal sen-
sor as you set
Alerts when vertical
.
(instead of
Alerts when horizontal
). See
