AfterthepatientwearstheDryBuddywiredBriefs,theSensor’smalesnapsareinserte dintothefemale
snapsoftheBriefstilltheyarefirmlyattached,andtheVelcroonthebrie fsattachedaroundtheSensor

Whenthepatienturinates,theurineisabsorbedby(soaksinto)thecottonbriefs.Whenthematerialof
thebriefsbetweentwoadjacentwiresiswet,thesensorwillbetriggeredandawirelessONsignalsent
totheReceiver.RemovingtheSensorfromthewetbriefsstopsfurthertransmission.


GeneralNote
:WhentheSensorsenseswetness,ittransmitstheONsignalforafractionofasecond.
ThisissufficienttotriggerthewirelessDryBuddyFLEXReceiver(s)andgeneratethealarm.TheSensor
staysinasleepstatefortwominutes,afterwhichtimeitwillagaintransmittheONsignal
ifitsenses
wetness.Thiswillberepeatedtwo(2)times,afterwhichthesensorwillstopsendinganyfurtherON
signals.However,tosensetheurineandtransmitasignal,theSensormustsenseaquickincreaseinthe
wetnesslevelforaboutonesecondtobecertainthatthe
wetnessisbeingcausedbyurineandnot
perspirationorsomeothergradualfactor. TheReceiver(s)onlyneedthefirstONsignalfromtheSensor
tocauseit/themtogenerateanalarm,andwillcontinuetogeneratethealarmuntiltheReceiver(s)
is/areturnedOFF.FurthertransmissionbytheSensor
isnotneeded,anditisadvisabletodisconnectthe
sensorfromthewetbriefssothattheSensor’sbatterypowerisnotwastedwithrepeatedtransmissions
forthesameincident.Werecommendthatthesensorbepromptlyremovedfromthewetbriefs.Before
washing/cleaningtheSensor,pleasebecertainto
turntheentiresystemOFFbypressingtheRemote’s
OFFswitchtwice(2times),ormanuallypressingtheMPSbuttonontheReceiver.


TheDryBuddyFLEXRemoteisusedtoremotelyturntheReceiver(s)ONtotheirREADYstate.Whenthe
Receiver(s)areOFF,pressingtheRemoteONbuttononce,
