Connecting to the GPS
When you first receive your device you
will need to turn it on and place it outside
for around 10 minutes. This is
recommended so that your device can
connect to the GPS satellite for the first
time in your area.
GPS Locator Function
Your device can tell your emergency
contacts where you are on a Google Map!
This is an invaluable aid in an emergency or
if you wander off. There is no stress to
figure out where you are, because this GPS
can identify your location to within 2.5m if it
has a fix on the satellites. Your contact can
text the command below from any mobile
phone to your devices mobile number and
they will receive a reply with your location.

Sometimes there are obstacles to getting
an exact fix to a satellite from poor
weather, underground carparks etc. If this
is the case then the device will show the
last known fixed position. To conserve
power, the GPS will sometimes go into
sleep mode if there is no movement after
10seconds. It will wake up again when it
senses movement and begin to refix to a
satellite. We cannot guarantee it will always
know its location, but please refer to the
LED lights on Page 6 for more information.
Turning Fall detection ON
We program Fall Detection ON for you by
default. You can adjust the sensitivity
settings, (with 1 being most sensitive and 9
being more relaxed) or even switch it off all
together at any time.

Your device will text a
reply confirmation that the fall settings
have been adjusted.
Like a mobile phone, your device
has a unique mobile number and
anyone that knows your number
can call you, even if it's not an
emergency. They are charged the
same as if they made a normal
outbound call- you won't be
charged! A handy feature if you
can't make it to the phone in time.
The device will answer with 2 way
handsfree communication
automatically after a few rings.
When they hang up, the call ends.
If you enter a command text to the device incorrectly, you may get a text
back saying 'Format Error'. Check your command prompt and try again
