the sensor by placing a clean metal conductor (such as a
key, screwdriver or knife) across the two magnets and
making good electrical contact. This activates the sensor.
The steady Green is followed by blinking Green every 5
seconds. Ten (10) seconds after the Synch is set, the
Receiver will switch itself OFF.
Notes: If the new synchronization is not completed within 15
seconds, the Blue light will stop and the Receiver will revert
to its synchronization before the new synchronization was
attempted, and switch itself OFF. Once the Sensor has been
activated it cannot be activated again for two (2) minutes.
Do not synchronize the DryBuddy1 while the Receiver is
indicating a low battery (Yellow blinking light). Insert fresh
batteries and synchronize. The Sync button will not function
when the power is ON.
You must re-synchronize the Sensor and Receiver if either
the Sensor or the Receiver are changed or synchronization is
lost for any reason.

The DryBuddy1 offers convenience, privacy and reliability
to patients (or children) who need to be alerted when
enuresis, bed-wetting or unintentional urination occurs.
It is truly wireless, and can be used when the DryBuddy1
Receiver is being carried by the patient or is within
proximity (up to 3 meters or 10 feet) of the wireless Sensor
being used by the patient.
DryBuddy1 Controls
All controls of the DryBuddy1 are on the circular side of the
DryBuddy1 Receiver. Except for the On/Off switches, these
switches are below the surface and can be reached and
pressed by using a dull pointed instrument such as a small
screw driver or straightened metal paper clip. This prevents
any accidental or unintentional switching of the DryBuddy1.
Switching the DryBuddy1 ON and OFF
When the two Power ON/OFF buttons are pressed together
for two (2) seconds, the power will be turned ON or OFF.
When the power is turned ON, a Green light will flash twice.
When the power is turned OFF, a Red light will flash twice.
When the Receiver power is OFF, pressing the small control
buttons (switches) on the side turns the Receiver on briefly
so that the buttons can function and the Receiver is set to
the next new setting for the button being pressed.
When the Receiver power is ON, pressing the small Mode
button activates the Receiver and indicates the current
setting of the Receiver. (Mode, Sound and Volume). The Vol.
and Sound buttons will not function when the Power is ON.
Synch
The DryBuddy1 Sensor and Receiver must be synchronized
so that they work with the same code. A new DryBuddy1
system has been synchronized at the factory. To re-
synchronize, first make certain that the Power is OFF. Then:
1. Press the Sync button in the side. A Blue light will flash,
and the Receiver is placed in synchronization mode for
fifteen (15) seconds.
2. While the Blue light is flashing, short the two magnets on
Mode
The Mode switch allows the user to change the mode or
type of alert.
When the power is ON: Pressing the Mode button plays the
current settings for the Receiver.
When the power is OFF: Each “press” of the switch will
result in the alert changing in the following order:
1. Sound only
2. Sound + Strong Vibration
3. Strong Vibration only
4. Low Vibration only
Each time that the Mode switch is pressed, the alert only
changes in the direction

Volume
The Vol + and - buttons increase or decrease the volume level
of the sound. The DryBuddy1 has five (5) volume levels. The
mode must be set to Music so that the sound can be heard.
When the power is OFF: Pressing the + or - button changes
the sound setting to the higher or lower volume setting and
this new volume is heard briefly. If the sound volume is to be
increased or decreased further, press the + or – buttons again.
Note: The volume buttons set the sound volume to what
will be heard if the DryBuddy1 is set to the Sound or
Sound+Vibration modes.
Note: The Volume buttons will not function when the power
is ON.
Sound
The DryBuddy1 offers two audible alarms – a Trumpet
Fanfare and a Berlin Police Siren. The sound can be
changed by pressing the Sound button. The mode must be
set to Music so that the sound can be heard.
When the power is OFF: Pressing the Sound button
changes the sound to the next sound - either the Trumpet
Fanfare or the Berlin Police Siren.
Note: The Sound button will not function when the power
is ON.
Length of Alert
If the alarm’s alert is not turned OFF manually, the alarm can
continue for a Short Alert time or a Long Alert time.
With a Short Alert, the alert will stop after about 2 minutes, and
the Receiver will be switched OFF. This is the default (factory)
setting for the DryBuddy1.
With a Long Alert, the alert will keep repeating its alert cycle
till the Receiver is manually switched OFF or the batteries are
drained.
To set the length of the alert, first press the Synch button.
While the Blue sync light is flashing for 15 seconds:
1. For a Short Alert, press the Vol. – button. A yellow light
will flash once.
2. For a Long Alert, press the Vol. + button. A yellow light
will flash twice.
The Receiver automatically turns itself OFF after the Yellow
light flashes. The Receiver must now be switched ON again in
order to continue using the DryBuddy1.
When to Sychronize
Every DryBuddy1 Sensor has its own unique code transmitted
to the Receiver. This allows many DryBuddy1 systems to be in
close proximity without interfering with one another. If the Sensor
is changed or synchronization lost for any reason, the Sensor and
Receiver must be synchronized again.
Do not synchronize the DryBuddy1 while the Receiver is
indicating a low battery (Yellow blinking light). Insert fresh
batteries and synchronize.
