General description of Careline Anna/GSM
There are currently many types of telephony; therefore STT Condigi's new carephone comes in several models in
order to allow you to communicate in different ways. You can make an analogue emergency call or via GSM, or
calls can be sent as data traffic over IP or GPRS, this user manual describes the operation of the two analogue
models: Careline Anna and Careline GSM. The manual for the most part covers both models, but the part that
deals with GSM, of course, only applies to Careline GSM. When both models are referred to in the text it states,
Careline Anna/GSM.
Careline Anna and Careline GSM can transmit both speech and non-speech emergency alerts, to 10 different pre-
programmed alarm recipients via the analogue telephone network and/or GSM network, and Careline GSM can
also send alerts to 8 different alarm recipients via GPRS. The alarm recipients then forward the alarm to, for
example, mobile phones, local wireless phones or an alarm centre, depending on the time and day. Dialling to the
various alarm recipients is done in a predetermined sequence, and may differ depending on the type of alarm.
The alarm activation is done by pressing the red button on the carephone or by pressing the red button on the
portable alarm transmitter. If the transmitter is used the alarm signal is transmitted to the carephone using a radio
signal. The carephone transmits the alarm to the pre-programmed alarm recipient. If it is a voice alarm, like the
normal medical alarms, the emergency operator can hold a conversation with the person who activated the
alarm. The carephone is equipped with both microphone and speaker and works as a speakerphone, which
allows calls with no additional push of a button from the user's side. Conversation can be held in a normal sized
apartment with good sound quality.
The carephone Careline Anna/GSM is connected to the telephone network by a cable. If the carephone has GSM
functionality it connects to the GSM network through a SIM card installed in the intended SIM card holder. For
power supply the supplied AC/DC transformer is connected. In the event of a power failure the carephone is
powered by the built-in accumulator (see section 1.6).
In addition to the alarm transmitter, Tx4 can connect additional radio transmitted alarm accessories, such as door,
IR or smoke alarms. Fixed-line alarms can be used through the STT Radiobox 869, T-box 869 or via the additional
card in the carephone (note that it requires a specific model of Careline Anna which has an extra socket for this
purpose.) In total, 16 radio-based devices can be connected at one time, including the Tx4, the portable alarm
transmitter, which is supplied with the carephone.
