Calls for Help Even When You Cannot
The SEFD1 Fall Detection and Personal Help Button provides assistance that no other
personal help button can offer. The pendant alerts your emergency monitoring service
automatically
when it detects a fall, even if you are able to push the help button on the
pendant.
The SEFD1 is designed to work in and immediately around your home. The
pendant must be close enough to the receiver for a help signal to be transmitted.
The coverage area of the pendant will vary from one home to another. It is
important for you to know the effective range of your pendant.
The SEFD1 is designed to detect falls that meet certain criteria. It may not
detect every fall, especially slight falls that are generally not disabling. The SEFD1
Fall Detection device may also generate a fall alarm when you have not fallen.
For example, if the pendant drops on the floor, the device may alert the monitoring
center that you have fallen.
Operation
The SEFD1 pendant transmits three conditions:
• Push Button
• Fall
• Low Battery
