Step 1: Write out the numbers you are wanting to program into the system.
Below we will refer to Number 1 as the first number, Number 2 as the second
number etc. Include area-codes and a 1 or 9 if they are needed for dialing.
Step 2: Establish a phone connection with a friend or family member - or
with your cell phone. This is done as follows. From your home phone (on
the same line as the FreedomAlert is hooked-up to) call your cell phone (or
a friend or neighbor if you don’t have a cellphone). Answer the phone (or
wait until your neighbor answers the phone and tell them just to wait a minute
while you program your system). Note: If you don’t do this step, then as
you begin to program the unit with your telephone - the phone company will
think you are trying to dial an outline number and will try to complete the
call. By having the phone line already in use with your cell phone or friend
or family member - you are now ready to program the FreedomAlert.
Step 3: With the phone connection established in Step 2, slide the slide switch
at the back of the Base unit to “
Learn Mode
”. You will hear an audible
announcement of this position.
Step 4: Determine how many contact numbers you want to enter. Follow
the next steps to enter these numbers.
NOTE: The “
#
” key (the key in the lower right corner of your phone keypad)
must be entered before each phone number as shown in the work sheet on
the next page - and then pressed 4 times to exit out of programming.
Telephone Number Programming Worksheet:
Note: You will be using your telephone keypad on an open telephone line to
program the emergency call telephone numbers. The base will speak each
number that is pushed on the telephones keypad.
Dial Slowly – listen for each number to be announced, if you did not hear
the voice announcement – the number was not recorded.
The Freedom Alert can learn telephone numbers up to 16 digits long and you
DO NOT have to program all 4 contact telephone numbers. When you have
finished entering the telephone numbers that you want, skip to step 9.
