A non-monitored, telephone based, emergency call system that comes with a base station and two push button pendants. When the button is pressed the alarm dials through a list of three pre-programmed numbers. The contact person must acknowledge the call by pressing any number on their phone. If the number goes to voice mail the system will continue to dial the next pre-programmed number.
General Details
Caution: Emergency Call Systems - '000'
It is important to be aware that 000 calls from automated devices (such as emergency call systems) cannot be guaranteed a response from the emergency services if they are unable to validate the condition, address and required response. It is therefore not recommended to program 000 into a non-monitored emergency call system (or autodialling system).
Caution: Emergency Call Systems - NBN
The planned National Broadband Network (NBN), if built as proposed, will replace the existing fixed-line copper telecommunications network. Telephone based emergency call systems supplied by companies who are members of Personal Emergency Response Services Australia (PERSA) are expected to work correctly when connected to the NBN. Please be aware that battery back-up time on the NBN will only work for a few hours during a power failure. Please ensure that your NBN customer equipment is set-up correctly to work with your emergency call system and that the Retail Service Provider (RSP) that you have selected to provide your broadband can support that set-up. If the NBN is rolling-out in your area, call your emergency call system supplier before you sign any contract for the NBN service so they can assist you to select an RSP that is likely to support the continued operation of your emergency call system over the NBN.
Extra product information
Any phone number can be programmed into the system, including mobile phones and 000. One of the two pendants is water-resistant for use in the shower or bath and the other pendant is splash proof.
The pendants have a range of up to 50 metres in open air. The range may lessen in indoor environments.
The base unit has a built-in speaker and microphone for hands-free communication within a 3 metre radius.
A 6 second message is recorded into the system at the time of setup and is played when the emergency contact answers the call to inform them that the call is an emergency call.
Access to a standard telephone line and mains power is required to operate the system. The base unit takes 4 x AAA batteries as a back-up in the event of power failure.
