3.3 Coin Cell Low Battery Alert
When a low battery is detected, the transmitter will send a low battery alert,
and start a seven day countdown. If the battery has not been replaced
within two days from when the low battery alert message was sent, the
yellow low battery LED on the bottom of the pendant will begin to blink, and
will not stop until the battery is replaced, or the seven day countdown
expires.
If the seven day countdown expires without the battery being changed, a
high priority shutdown message will be sent to the application software and
the pendant will automatically go into storage mode. For more about
storage mode, see section 5, “Storage Mode”.
4 Coin Cell Battery Replacement
Note:
Inovonics has tested and recommends Panasonic®, Energizer® and
FDK® (formerly Sanyo) CR2032 coin cell batteries.
The waterproof pendant uses one standard CR2032 coin cell battery. To
change the battery:
1.
Use the ACC680 alarm clearance card or a quarter to turn the battery
door to the unlocked padlock icon.
2.
Remove the battery door.
3.
Remove the old battery from the battery compartment.
4.
Place the new battery in the battery compartment, ensuring that the
positive terminal (+) faces up.
5.
Seat the battery door over the battery so that the arrow on the battery
door is lined up with the unlocked padlock icon.
6.
Use the ACC680 alarm clearance card or a quarter to turn the battery
door to line up the arrow on the battery door with the arrow under the
locked padlock icon.
7.
Press the activation button to initalize the transmitter.
8.
Clear the resulting alarm per section 3.2, “Clear an Alarm”.
Note:
If the pendant is not activated after replacing the battery, the low
battery indication will not clear until the next check-in interval.
5 Storage Mode
Storage mode is an ultra low battery state designed to protect the life of the
internal battery for 12 months. The pendant is shipped from Inovonics in
storage mode. The device will also automatically go into storage mode at
the next check-in transmission time if the coin cell battery has been
removed.
Note:
When the pendant is in storage mode, it will not transmit alarms or
check-in messages.
5.1 Extended Storage
If a pendant will not be deployed to an end user for more than 12 months
from the date of manufacture that appears on the device or device
packaging, you must install the coin cell battery and press the button before
the 12 months elapses to ensure proper operation.
If the device has remained idle for more than 6 months, we advise a 72
hour charging period before deploying the pendant to an end user.
If the device will remain unused after installing the coin cell battery, it will
operate for approximately three years, assuming no button presses.
5.2 Put the Device in Storage Mode
Note:
The device should not be left in storage mode for more than 12
months. Devices should be stored in ambient conditions (69 to 73 degrees
Fahrenheit).
To put the device in storage mode:
1.
Use the ACC680 alarm clearance card or a quarter to turn the battery
door to the unlocked position.
2.
Remove the battery from the battery compartment.
3.
Press the activation button for at least one second.
• The red LED will flash and the pendant will vibrate briefly to indicate
that an alarm has been sent. This serves as confirmation that the
pendant is now in storage mode.
4.
Seat the battery door over the empty battery chamber, and use the
ACC680 alarm clearance card or a quarter to turn the battery door to
line up the arrow on the battery door with the arrow under the locked
padlock icon.
Note:
If the alarm activation button is pressed when the device is in storage
mode and the battery is not installed, a yellow LED will illuminate briefly on
the lower portion of the device to indicate a missing battery condition to the
user.
5.3 Take the Device out of Storage Mode
To remove the device from storage mode:
1.
Use the ACC680 alarm clearance card or a quarter to turn the battery
door to the unlocked padlock icon.
2.
Remove the battery door.
3.
Place a battery in the battery compartment, ensuring that the positive
terminal (+) faces up.
4.
Seat the battery door over the battery so that the arrow on the battery
door is lined up with the unlocked padlock icon.
5.
Use the ACC680 alarm clearance card or a quarter to turn the battery
door to line up the arrow on the battery door with the arrow under the
locked padlock icon.
6.
Press the activation button for at least one second.
• The red LED will flash and the pendant will vibrate briefly to indicate
that an alarm has been sent. This serves as confirmation that the
pendant is no longer in storage mode.
• When the button is pressed, an alarm message and reset message
are sent to the head end application.
7.
To cause the red LED to cease flashing, clear the alarm sent when you
activated the pendant per section 3.2, “Clear an Alarm”.
Note:
If the alarm activation button is pressed when the device is not in
storage mode and the battery is not installed, the red LED will blink rapidly
for five seconds, the pendant will vibrate, and an alarm will be sent with a
missing battery message. The alarm clearance function is not enabled in
this situation. Subsequent button presses will cause the yellow LED to
illuminate briefly on the lower portion of the device to indicate a missing
battery condition to the user.
6 Test the Transmitter
The transmitter should be tested after registration and then weekly to
ensure operation.
To test the transmitter:
1.
Press the activation button for at least one second and ensure the red
transmit LED lights, the vibration activates, and the alarm is received by
the receiver or gateway.
2.
Clear the alarm and ensure the red alarm transmission LED stops
flashing, and the blue alarm clear LED flashes.
7 Cleaning and Care
7.1 Cleaning
Caution:
Cleaning should only be performed with the battery door in place
and in the locked position.
Cleaning should be performed by hand using a damp cloth and mild soap,
or disinfectant wipes designed for household use.
Do Not Use
The following products should never be used to clean the EN1221S-60
series pendants:
• Strong cleaning agents such as ammonia, bleach, alcohol or
quaternary disinfectant.
• Abrasive or powder cleansers.
• Alcohol-based hand sanitizers.
The following equipment and processes must never be used:
• Steam autoclave or commercial sterilization procedures using heat,
chemical, gas or radiation techniques.
• Dishwasher or washing machine.
• Soaking or suspending the pendant in water or other liquids.
Using any of these products or processes will damage the pendant.
7.2 Care
The plastic used for the pendant is durable and designed to withstand
exposure to most common substances including soaps and skin lotions.
However, there are some types of creams, lotions or sprays which contain
chemicals that may dull the finish of the housing. These include insect
repellents containing DEET, sunscreen and topical analgesics. If an end
user is using these types of products, they should avoid having the
pendant come into direct contact with them.
