How does the Pill Dispenser Advance work?
The Pill Dispenser Advance will sound an alarm, flash a red light and the display will show "TAKE MED" when it's time for the
user to take their medication.
It will make the correct dosage available at the correct time each day, at all other times the pills are securely locked inside the
dispenser.
When the alarm sounds the shutter will be unlocked, the pills are removed from the dispenser by
o
tilting it through 90 and pouring them into the hand. The tilting action will silence the alarm
then re‐lock the shutter again after 2 minutes.
If the dispenser is not tilted the alarm will continue to until the programmable "after" time
has expired (5 minutes to 5 hours).
When half the "after" time expires an alarm call will be transmitted. When the full "after" time
has expired another alarm will be transmitted and the shutter will lock to prevent the possibility
of 2 doses being taken within a short time (i.e. potential double‐dosing).
Pills "ready" and pills "taken" times are also transmitted and logged in the Reach Plus or Advent xt
This data can be analysed using Tynetec's iCare software.
Loading the Pill Dispenser
The Pill Dispenser is provided with clearly printed discs. These discs identify the day of the week and the appropriate number of
doses per day (between 1 and 4). A blank disc is provided for those on 5 or more doses per day.
Place the appropriate disc for the required pill dosage on top of the tray taking care to
line‐up the holes and push down over the 4 locating pins.
Use the disc as a guide when placing the pills.
Certain medication should not be exposed to the air and therefore should not
be placed in automatic dispensers; if in doubt check with a Pharmacist.
After filling, position the tray so that the compartment with the first dose to be taken by
the user is to the right of the opening. The photo here shows Mon Eve is the next dose
Resetting the Doses Left Display
Each time medication is dispensed the number of "DOSES LEFT" will reduce by 1.
When the tray is re‐filled it is important to reset the counter by pressing button 2 until "TRAY Z" is displayed.
If the dispenser is working in the "SECURE" mode the tray will move a half turn to lock the shutter.
The number of "DOSES LEFT" will now be the same as the number entered in the "FILLED" quantity setting.
Close the lid and lock with the key supplied.
The refill frequency will depend on the number of daily doses; once a day refill every 28 days, twice a day refill every 14 days,
three times a day refill every 9 days, four times a day refill every 7 days, etc.
