151Ending Your Sensor Session and Transmitter Session
Sound/Vibration Prompts
Both the smart device and receiver provide sound/vibration prompts to tell you your
transmitter battery is low or the transmitter failed. Remember, if your smart device is on
Silent or Do Not Disturb, you may not get any sound notifications.
For more information on setting your sound/vibration prompts and how to confirm them,
please see Chapter 9.
Smart Device
Your smart device prompts you with a sound, and repeats every five minutes until cleared.
Receiver
The receiver prompts you with an initial vibration. If not confirmed, you receive a sound/
vibration twice, five minutes apart.
