The battery should be replaced within the next week.
“Replace battery now.”
The battery should be replaced now.
To replace the battery - simply exchange the battery in the Pendant with the
battery that has been charging in the Base unit.
Please note: If there is no response after pressing the button for one second
or more, the battery is dead and must be replaced
immediately.
The battery should be tested at least twice a month along
with the System Check outlined on the this page.
When it gets to the point after a few years that the pendant battery only lasts
4 weeks before needing to be charged - it is then time to replace both the
Pendant batteries. Note: This is a very unusual battery not available at most
outlets. Order replacement batteries from LogicMark as directed on page 35.
NOTE:
The pendants are monitored by the base unit. The pendant reports to
the base every 13 hours. If the battery condition is “Replace Battery Now”,
the base unit will call the first ‘Friend’ number and play the voice prompt
[Pendant number X, Replace Battery Now]. The voice prompt is played 10
times, then hangs up and resets.
And, if the base unit misses 4 reports from the pendant in a row (52 hours),
the base unit will call the first ‘Friend’ number and play the voice prompt
[Pendant Number X, Not in communication]. The voice prompt is played
10 times, then hangs up and resets.
Pressing the 9 on the phone keypad on either of these messages will stop the
announcement and cause the unit to reset.
If the first ‘Friend’ gets either of these announcements, please make arrange
-
ments as soon as possible to service or replace the pendant.
The unit will not call 911 to report a Replace Battery Now or Pendant Failed
condition. A ‘Friend’ number must be programmed for this feature to work.
