CENTRAL 1000 Monitored Personal Emergency Alert System
(490-2575)                 Operation                  Faxback Doc. # 32233

USING THE SYSTEM

To trigger an alarm, press EMERGENCY CALL.  The system sounds the siren.

Press STOP within 40 seconds to prevent the system from calling ORCA
Monitoring Services.  Otherwise, the system reports an emergency to ORCA
Monitoring Services.  They call to confirm the emergency.  If you do not
answer the phone, or answer and do not give the correct password, ORCA
Monitoring Services calls the appropriate emergency service and also
notifies the people listed on your agreement.

NOTES:  ORCA Monitoring Services can change the 40-second delay.  If you
        want a longer or shorter delay, call and let them know.

        The pendant is water resistant.  It continues to operate if water
        is splashed on it, as in a shower.  However, you should not wear
        it while swimming or bathing.

        The system calls ORCA Monitoring Services on its primary phone
        number first.  If that line is unavailable it tries ORCA Monitoring
        Services' secondary phone number.  It repeats this every 30 seconds
        until it reports the emergency.

        If you have a Plug 'n Power module installed with your system, the
        lamp connected to it flashes while the siren sounds and remains on
        after the siren is silenced.

RESPONDING TO THE MONITOR INDICATOR

The MONITOR indicator flashes when either ORCA Monitoring Services needs
to contact you or if the system was not able to contact ORCA Monitoring
Services when you pressed EMERGENCY CALL.  Immediately contact ORCA
Monitoring Services at 1-800-FOR ORCA if the indicator is flashing.

TESTING THE SYSTEM

You should periodically test the system to be sure it can receive the
pendant's signal, and also check the dialer to be sure the system calls
ORCA Monitoring Services.

NOTE:  You must set INSTALL/RUN (located under the flip-up lid) to RUN to
       test or operate the system.

Testing the System

To make sure the system can receive the pendant's signal (without having
the system dial ORCA Monitoring Services), press EMERGENCY CALL on the
pendant.  The siren should immediately sound.  Press STOP within 40
seconds to prevent the system from calling ORCA Monitoring Services.

If the siren does not sound:

  Check your pendant's battery.

  Follow the steps in "Activating the Pendant", on Faxback Doc. # 32230.

  Be sure the system is plugged in and the backup battery is installed.

Testing the Dialer

Before you test the dialer to verify that it calls ORCA Monitoring
Services, be sure you know your password.  (If you do not give ORCA
Monitoring Services the correct password, they call emergency personnel).
Then call ORCA Monitoring Services and tell them you are about to test the
system.

Press EMERGENCY CALL on the pendant or system.  The siren sounds.  After
the set delay time, the system calls ORCA Monitoring Services.

When ORCA Monitoring Services calls to confirm the emergency, give them
your password and tell them you were testing the system.

If the system does not call ORCA Monitoring Services:

  Check you pendant's battery.

  Follow the steps in "Activating the Pendant", on Faxback Doc. # 32230.

  Be sure the system is plugged in and the backup battery is installed.

  Be sure the system is plugged into the phone line.
