Test
If you press the Test button while the Duress Device is in Off Duty or On Duty mode and detached
from its holster, it will beep and vibrate while it runs a self-test. The LED will blink orange, then
turn green to indicate a successful test. Press the Panic button once after the LED turns green
to switch to On Duty mode, or press the Test button again to switch to Off Duty mode.
If the test fails, the Duress Device will still enter On Duty mode but it will notify the user of the
failure with a “fail” beep and orange LED, and it will send an alert. The test can be repeated,
which may resolve the error. Pressing the Panic button when the LED is solid RED may clear the
error. If the test fails three times the device will be placed in a permanent error condition and
should be returned to TimeKeeping Systems.
Test results can also be viewed with the Guard1 software.
On Duty
On Duty is the normal operational state of the Duress Device. There is no alert condition, and it
is monitoring your status. The LED flashes green once per second when the batteries are good.
