Fault monitoring
Fault monitoring enables the settings to be changed to ensure the home unit reacts
in the required way when it senses a fault such as power, telephony and battery
failures. These are configured using PC Connect.
Inactivity monitoring
The home unit can monitor movement around the home and send an alarm call to
the monitoring centre if no movement is detected within a specific time period.
Inactivity monitoring has three different modes, Tunstall Vi+ supports all three modes.
Mode 1 - Simple
– generates an alarm if the user is inactive for a configurable 12 or
24 hour period (continuous period).
Mode 2 - Real Time
– generates an alarm if the user is inactive between a
configurable start and end time (time window). Two time windows are supported e.g.
7am
– 10am and 4pm – 7pm
Mode 3 - Elapsed
– generates an alarm if the user is inactive for a period of time
within a time window or continuous period. Two monitoring windows are supported
e.g. raise an alarm call if the user is inactive for any 1 hour period between 7am-
10am and any 40 minute period between 4pm
– 7pm
In all modes, before an inactivity alarm is raised an inactivity warning period will
occur. This is fixed at 10 minutes for Mode 1 and is configurable between 0 and 9
minutes for Modes 2 and 3. This warning period is intended to inform the user that an
inactivity alarm is about to be raised therefore giving them the opportunity to cancel
the alarm.
After an alarm has been raised, inactivity monitoring can either be suspended until
further activity is detected (all Modes) or can optionally restart immediately (Modes 2
and 3 only).
When configured using the quick code, inactivity monitoring is simplified using default
settings. The following quick code can be used to enable simple (mode 1) inactivity
monitoring.
51xx
Enable inactivity monitoring for a period of 12 or 24 hrs
Where xx is 12 or 24
Configuration of advanced inactivity monitoring must be done via the PC Connect
programming tool or monitoring centre.
NOTE
: To avoid false calls to the monitoring centre, inactivity monitoring should be de-activated when
the user leaves their home.
Activate (home mode)
- press the yellow away button (
unit announces ‘Home’ and the yellow
LED will turn off)
De-activate (away mode)

LED will turn on)
The home unit’s clock must be set to operate Inactivity monitoring.
