Fall Sensor (Chiptech Pearl Adv/Fall)
If you have our standard transmitter, adding a second transmitter (including a Fall Sensor) will increase your monthly monitoring fees by $8.83. Alternatively, you can choose to swap your current transmitter for the Fall Sensor. To do this, please contact INS LifeGuard for assistance.
Pearl Advanced is an easy to wear pendant with fall detection technology. If a fall and impact is detected, or if the personal help button is pressed, Pearl Advanced will communicate bi-directionally with a Chiptech base unit to send an alert.
The Pearl Advanced fall detector has been designed to automatically help those who may be prone to falling, to give them confidence to go about their day to day activities around the home.
Pearl Advanced Fall Settings
This setting will suit 80% of end users. Typically users will have fallen before, are living independently and are mobile by themselves. In this setting Pearl Advanced beeps for 15 seconds, (the outer rim does not flash red at this stage). When the signal is confirmed with the base unit, the outer rim flashes red and the pendant beeps, there is also an audible confirmation from the base unit* that the fall alert is being sent.
2. Epilepsy
This is a super-sensitive fall detection algorithm for individuals who are frail or sedentary. In this setting, the Pearl Advanced requires a shorter ‘free-fall’ distance and less impact to detect a fall. The ‘Shake to Cancel’ beeps have a different warning tone sequence. When the signal is confirmed with the base unit, the outer rim flashes red and the pendant beeps, there is also an audible confirmation from the base unit* that the fall alert is being sent.
