FALL DETECTION
FALL DETECTION – HOW IT WORKS
Fall Detection only takes a few seconds to interpret
the movement and determine if an actual fall has
occurred. If a fall is determined, the device will
send a signal which will initiate a call to the
emergency response center.
• We recommend that you wear your Fall
Pendant around your neck so that it rests
at chest level to avoid unnecessary swinging.
• Make sure the button is facing forward,
making it easier for you to press in the event
of an emergency.
• Wear outside your clothing as wearing it
inside can reduce the percentage of falls
being detected.
• To cancel a call made due to a Fall Detection
event, let the call go through and tell the
emergency response operator that you are okay.
