Opening doors
Lifeline 4000 can be configured to open a door using a relay connected to its external output.
1. For details of how to make a connection to the external output see chapter 4.
2. For information on naming a user key and setting the key type to Relay , see Configuring
Keys on page 26.
3. The section on Configuring Keys also explains how to control the external output using a
key. A user key should be set to toggle the output, so that pressing it once opens the door,
and pressing it again locks the door.
4. It is possible that the resident could easily leave a door unlocked, and so you might consider
some sort of visual confirmation of state, such as a light connected to the relay.
Witness Protection
Lifeline 4000 can be configured to raise
an alarm if a resident believes they are
under threat. The following steps
should be considered:
1. Turn off any visual confirmation
of a call being made. See Trigger
Types and Actions on page 44.
2. Turn warnings and speech
synthesis off (see Warnings and
messages , page 30).
3. If any alarm calls are to be made
to personal recipients you might
want to silence these announcements at the Lifeline 4000 (see personal recipient
configuration, page 62).
4. If you are considering a hardwired input then you might wish to select one where the circuit is
normally closed (i.e. the circuit is normally made). If this sort of trigger is ripped out by an intruder
the circuit will disconnect and an alarm will be raised anyway. See chapter 4 for information on
making a hardwired connection. See page 43 for how to configure the hardwired input.
5. An intruder might use the Cancel button on the Lifeline 4000 to cancel an alarm call. This
button can be disabled. See page 29 for more information.
6. An intruder might disconnect the telephone line before entering the house or flat. Lifeline 4000
can be configured to make periodic calls. The gaps between these calls can range from 99 days to
just 1 minute if the high resolution option is used. If a person was at serious risk you might wish
to set the telephone to call in with an automatic, silent call every ten minutes.
Fall Detector. If you are concerned that an individual may be attacked then a Fall Detector could be
a useful precaution. If the resident is knocked to the ground it will automatically raise an alarm. In
addition, it will be difficult for an intruder to forcefully take the Fall Detector from the resident
without setting it off.
