Notifications
Any time that critical care specialists need to communicate
with you or send a notification, they first notify you silently
by sending a signal that causes the vital signs transmitter to
vibrate. Approximately five seconds after the vibration, a brief
message will be played for each of the following types
of notifications:
• Occurrence of an event that has not been transmitted to
the Clinical Monitoring Center because you are outside of
cellular coverage area
• Low battery level
• Insufficient battery level for normal function
• Call from Clinical Monitoring Center
• Vital signs transmitter has become too loose for
normal operation
To delay the automatic playing of a message following the
vibration, depress the Event Button immediately following
the notification vibration.
The message will be delayed 30 seconds before being played.
Please note that, for your safety, a 911 notification or similar
type of Emergency Event cannot be delayed by the depression
of the Event Button, and the incoming message will be played.
Message notifications that are received while you are not
wearing your vital signs transmitter will be stored and
automatically played back the next time you apply the vital
signs transmitter to your body. Refer to the “How to Wear
Your Vital Signs Transmitter” section for instructions on
how to apply the transmitter.
