Who should read this guide?
As its name suggests, this guide explains the more advanced features of Lifeline 4000. It is a
supplement to the main Lifeline 4000 User Guide, not a replacement. This guide is intended for
interested owners/users of Lifeline 4000, care and control centre staff, as well as installers and
service engineers. For information on basic installation, operations such as raising an alarm and
answering a call, please consult the main Lifeline 4000 User Guide.
How is this guide organized?
This guide is divided into four sections
• Common Tasks is intended for control centre staff. It explains how homecare management
entries can be made, as well as the basics of local programming.
• Common Installations explains the various ways in which a Lifeline 4000 can be configured.
It includes explanations and configurations for inactivity monitoring, intruder detection,
door control, among others.
• Programming Reference deals with all of the parameters in Lifeline 4000 that might be set
using local programming.
• External Connections explains how to make connections to Lifeline 4000’s input and output
ports.
Control centres and Lifeline 4000
Full use. The Tunstall PNC3 Vision control centre (version 5.4 and above) takes advantage of the
wide variety of new features offered by Lifeline 4000. In particular, PNC3 Vision (version 5.4 and
above) can handle the high-quality two-way speech Lifeline 4000 allows. PNC3 Vision also offers
remote programming of Lifeline 4000 through its new, easy-to-use programming utility.
Normal use. Other control centres will also be able to accept calls from Lifeline 4000, even
some older non-Tunstall control centres. This is because Lifeline 4000 uses standard codes and
protocols for communication with these older centres. However, these control centres will not be
able to take advantage of the new facilities offered by Lifeline 4000, and some non-Tunstall centres
may not be able to remotely program Lifeline 4000.
Tunstall grouped alarms (also called scheme alarms), such as Haven, Communicall and
Communicall Vision can accept alarm calls from Lifeline 4000 (but only when they have either a
Telephone Interface Card (TIC) or a UAC interface to the telephone network). There is no facility in
any grouped alarm to remotely program Lifeline 4000. However, the high quality-two-way speech
offered by Communicall Vision means that it can take advantage of the high-quality two-way
speech offered by Lifeline 4000.
