PERS-4200X Personal Emergency Reporting System Quick Guide

PERS Console Operating Modes

Your PERS Console operates in three operating
"modes". Each mode sets the Console to act differently
to match your lifestyle at different times of the day.
In any of the three modes, the Console is always ready
to report an emergency if you press the HELP
or activate one of your portable emergency sensors.
Home Mode
Home Mode is for when you are at home during the day. In Home
Mode, the Console knows if your emergency sensors are present
and ready to use. If a sensor does not regularly report to the
Console, a trouble report can be sent to your monitoring service.
Away Mode
Away Mode is for when you are going to be away from home. In
Away Mode, the Console knows that your portable emergency
sensors might be away from the Console and will abstain from
reporting any sensors that are missing. Console announcements
are also suppressed in Away Mode.
Night Mode
Night Mode is for nighttime when you are sleeping or do not wish
to be disturbed. In Night Mode, Console operates the same as in
Home Mode except that announcements are suppressed.
In Case of Emergency
If you need assistance, place a call to the monitoring
service by pressing the HELP button on the Console or
by activating one of your portable emergency sensors.
Remember, the portable emergency sensors send
radio signals to the Console, and there is a limit to the
maximum distance from the Console that the portable
emergency sensors can be used.
Do not press Cancel before talking to the monitoring
service dispatcher or your emergency call may be
canceled.
The Console will announce "Emergency call being
placed". When your monitoring service receives the
call, they will verify the nature of your emergency
and dispatch help for you. If the Console's 2-way
communications are active, the Console will announce
"Emergency reported, please stand by". The monitoring
service can talk and listen to you to through the Console.
