Setup Instructions
This section describes how to set up the InPower™ Personal Medication Assistant in your home and
load your first medications.
Device Placement
Allow two hours for the device to acclimate to the temperature and humidity of its new environment
after being unpacked and placed in your home. This is to ensure that the sensitive scales in the pod trays
can accurately measure the weight of the medications.
Cellular service is required in your area for the device to operate.
The InPower™ Personal Medication Assistant should be placed:
• in an area of your home where it will not be jolted.
• with enough room to open the door and pod trays.
• on a flat, level, and stable surface that is out of the reach of children.
• near a wall socket since it requires power.
Do NOT place:
• it near an air vent, fan, or open window because the airflow can adversely affect the sensitive
scales contained in the pod trays.
• objects on top of the device.
• the device near a ledge or in an area where you might easily drop medication onto the floor.
Once the device is set up in your home, you should avoid moving it.
Device Setup
After you have unpacked and placed the InPower™ Personal Medication Assistant in an appropriate place
in your home, plug the device into a wall socket. Then, follow these instructions to set up communications
between the device and your pharmacy, and load your first medications into the device.
Before performing this procedure, you should have with you the medication pods that you need to load now
given to you by your pharmacist in a polybag. Keep the pods in this bag until you are ready to load them into
the device. Make sure to inspect the bag and its contents prior to loading them.
CAUTION: Do not take or remove any medication from the pod until you have loaded
it into the device.
CAUTION: During initial setup, load medication pods into the device immediately when
you arrive home.
