3. SENDING AN EMERGENCY REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE
To send an emergency request for assistance, simply hold the EMERGENCY button
depressed for at least two seconds. When activated, the PAS screen will light up, the unit
will vibrate, and an ALERT SENT message will appear on the screen. You will receive a
RECEIVED ALERT message to confirm your alert has been received.
Your request for assistance, along with your location, will be sent to the receiving base
station, and authorities should be dispatched to your location immediately.
The emergency request for assistance is serious and should only be used in a real
emergency situation.
4. RECEIVING A MESSAGE
Some situations will require a message or messages to be sent to your PAS to provide
important information to you. If a message is received by your PAS, it is capable of
notifying you by applying one or a combination of three distinct indicators. Which indicator
is used is determined by the base station and is NOT user selectable.
4.1 Flash Screen
The backlight on the PAS’ LCD screen may flash on and off rapidly. This notification method
is silent and may be used in an event where noises could present a risk or have a negative
effect on the receiving party.
4.2 Vibrating
The PAS may vibrate to notify you of a received message. This notification method is more
effective in that it can alert you of a received message while out of sight, but without a
noisy disruption.
4.3 Beeping
The PAS may emit a series of beeps to notify you of a received message. This notification
method is the most disruptive.
5. WHAT DO I DO IF I RECEIVE A MESSAGE
5.1 Receiving Message
Receiving a message on your PAS is important, and it could be a life-threatening
emergency, so don’t ignore it!
5.2 Message Box
When a message is received by your PAS, a message box will appear in the center of the
LCD screen containing the text of the message. Long messages that contain too many
characters to fit on one screen will scroll to the next screen automatically. No action is
necessary.
