Man-Down and No-Movement Alarm

Man-down alarm: If the handset is tilted (by default 45°) from a vertical position for a predefined period of
time (by default 7 seconds), the Man-down alarm is triggered. The accuracy of the tilt is + or - 10 degrees.
No-movement alarm: If no movement is detected during a preset time (by default 30 seconds), the No-
movement alarm is triggered.
All the default values to trigger the alarms can be changed by an administrator in the WinPDM/
Device manager. Refer to the Configuration Manual, Ascom d83 DECT Handset, TD 93426EN.
When an alarm is triggered, the following occurs:

− Press any key/button. The alarm is reset.
− Put the handset in a vertical position if the "Reset the man-down warning automatically" parameter is
enabled by the Administrator.

beep/vibrator/LED signal confirms that the alarm has been sent.
• An acoustic location signal (ALS) may be activated after the alarm has been sent, or a call may be
established to a predefined number. See
after Alarm, page 49.
• Information about the handset's location may be sent along with the alarm, see

false alarms when the user tilts the handset or does not move during the call. If the Man-down alarm and
No-movement alarm are disabled during calls, the corresponding icons are not displayed. Refer to the
Configuration Manual, Ascom d83 DECT Handset, TD 93426EN.
