REPORTING EMERGENCIES
Medical
The medical alarm is operated by pressing a button accessible to anyone
who may need assistance. This alarm may be used in one of two ways:
>
the alarm is reported immediately.
>
the alarm is reported only if the medical button is not pressed
within a set time called the
Medical Alarm Delay.
For example, if this delay is set to 24 hours, then an alarm will only be
reported if the button is
not
pressed within 24 hours of the previous press.
When only 20 minutes of the time remains and the button has still not
been pressed, then all keypads will beep as a reminder. This will be
repeated 10 minutes later as a last reminder.
If the Medical Alarm Delay option is being used, an immediate emer-
gency alarm can be transmitted by pressing the button twice within a 12
second period. On the first press, all keypads beep once a second until
the end of the 12 second. If the button is pressed twice, this beep rate
doubles to indicate to the caller that the emergency alarm is being reported
and help is on the way.
Fire
If there are sensors in the building which detect the presence of smoke
and heat, then they will be connected to a special 24 hour zone which
gives an additional indication as shown.
