6 Technical alarms
6.1 Accumulator alarm
If the battery in the home care phone gets too weak, an
Accumulator alarm
will
be sent to alert the receiving personnel that there is some kind of problem for
this user. The reason for the alarm can be:
• The AC adaptor isn’t connected and NEO IP/GSM has been battery powered
for a long time
• The rechargeable battery is getting old
To activate/deactivate Accumulator alarm, see Accumulator on page 38.
If the voltage is lower than the threshold value an
Accumulator alarm
will be
sent. The user will also be warned by the LED on the front of the unit and by an
acoustic signal. To deactivate this warning, see section 2.4.2.
The unit will check the backup battery status at regular intervals. When the AC
adaptor is connected the default is one check every 24 hours, but the time inter
-
val can be changed. If the unit is powered from the battery the status is checked
continously.
To set the AC mode battery check interval time (in hours), see 8.10.1 Alarm acti
6.2
Battery alarm
If the battery in ATOM or other equipment is getting weak, the unit will send an
alarm by radio to NEO IP/GSM. NEO IP/GSM will then immediately send a
Battery
alarm
, to alert the receiving personnel that the ATOM needs to be changed.
The radio alarm from the equipment can come alone or together with a normal
User alarm
. If the alarm comes together with the
User alarm
and NEO IP/GSM
is using CPC or Tunstall the alarm types will be combined and exchanged to
User
alarm from trigger, battery low
.
6.3 Radio interference
It is important that the ATOM is transmitting on a frequency that is free from in
-
terference and disturbances. If a continuous radio interference signal is detected
for 30 seconds, the unit will therefore indicate this by flashing all warning LEDs,
see section 2.3.2.
If the signal still is present after totally 2 minutes, the unit will send a
Radio
interference
alarm to the alarm receiver.
To activate/deactivate the Radio interference alarm, see Radio interference on
