Receiver for the Lynx system built into an elegant wrist watch
Tactum forms part of Lynx – our wireless alert system for people with impaired hear-
ing. Lynx uses various types of transmitters and receivers that alert you to noises such
as a ringing telephone or doorbell, or the first signs of a fire.
Tactum is a receiver in the form of a watch, which alerts you via various vibrations
and symbols on the watch face when one of the transmitters in the system is activat-
ed. One or more Repeaters may also be installed in order to amplify the alarm signal
and thus extend its range.

Charging Tactum
You must charge Tactum before you can use it.
It takes approx. 7 hours to charge it fully. The
battery will then last approx. 20 hours. The watch
will receive an alarm even when charging!
A spare battery in the charger guarantees that it will operate
for 24 hours if there is a power failure, including 7 hours
charging the watch.
Place Tactum in its charger. A battery symbol is
displayed in the watch. This goes out when
charging is finished.
Installation and function test
1. Start by installing the transmitters that are to be used and one or more Repeaters,
if applicable. Read the user manual for the transmitters installed!
2. Test the system by activating the transmitters in the system one at a time. Tactum
starts to vibrate and the alarm symbol lights up. Check that the correct alarm is
indicated (see below).
Alarm indication
Tactum can receive seven
different types of alarm.
Tactum vibrates according to a
certain pattern and the symbol
for the relevant alarm comes
on. The vibration is repeated
once.

Battery warning
Tactum: When you have used the watch and the battery power begins to fail (after
approx. 18 hours), Tactum vibrates briefly and the battery symbol comes on. After
another couple of hours the watch vibrates briefly and the battery symbol flashes.
The battery is then completely flat and Tactum cannot receive any alarms.
NOTE: The watch mechanism has its own battery which is not dependent on charging.
Transmitters: When the battery power in one of the transmitters begins to fail,
the battery symbol together with the transmitter symbol will come on in connection
with an alarm.
Alarm at night
At night the Tactum watch should be placed in the charger. If an alarm comes from
one of the transmitters, the under-pillow vibrator will vibrate, the charger lighting
will come on and Tactum will display the current alarm symbol. Switch off the alarm
by pressing the charger button, or wait for 20 seconds.
Alarm call
To use Tactum to wake you up, proceed as follows:
1. Connect our alarm clock to the Tactum charger socket CLOCK.
2. Set the switch MIC ON OFF on the rear of the Tactum charger to the
OFF position.
3. Connect our under-pillow vibrator to the Tactum charger socket VIB.
4. Place the Tactum watch in the charger.
5. The under-pillow vibrator starts vibrating 20 seconds after the alarm clock starts
ringing.
6. Switch off the alarm clock in the usual way, or wait for 20 seconds.
It is sometimes possible to use a standard alarm clock instead of the one which is adapted for the Lynx
system. The Tactum charger has a built-in microphone which detects the sound from some alarm
clocks, depending on what ringing tone they have. Try it out.
1. Place the alarm clock next to the Tactum charger microphone.
2. Set the switch MIC ON OFF on the rear of the Tactum charger to the ON position.
Then follows steps 3-6 above.

Troubleshooting
Type of fault: Cause: Action:
Tactum does not receive an alert
from one of the transmitters. 1. The distance between Tactum
and the Repeater or between
the transmitter and Repeater is
too great.
1. Test by moving the Repeater
to another location. If you do
not have a Repeater installed,
you may need one to increase
the range.
2. The transmitter has a flat
battery. 2. Change the battery (see
transmitter user manual).
3. The transmitter is defective. 3. Contact the place of purchase
for repair.
Tactum does not receive an
alarm, even though the watch
mechanism is working.
The battery is flat. The watch
mechanism has its own battery
and is still working.
Place the watch on charge.
Tactum often receives false
alarms. Someone in the vicinity has the
same system installed. Change to another channel on
all units.
The under-pillow vibrator does
not vibrate when there is an
alarm from the alarm clock.
1. The under-pillow vibrator
connector or the cable to it has
been removed.
1. Insert the cables properly.
2. The microphone switch is in
the wrong position. 2. See the Alarm call section,
page 5, for the correct switch
position.
An incorrect alarm is indicated
when Tactum receives an alert
from a transmitter.
The transmitter alarm code has
been set incorrectly. Change the transmitter alarm
code (see transmitter user
manual).
Changing channels
The transmitters in the Lynx system transmit the signal wirelessly to Tactum. They can transmit on
a total of 16 different channels (0-9, A-F). Tactum and all transmitters must be set to the same chan-
nel so that they can communicate. They are pre-set to channel 9, and then operate together without
alteration.
In some cases, it may be necessary to change the channel setting. If two or more users live near one
another, the alarms can interfere. This can be rectified by changing the channel settings so that they
are different for everyone. Any channel can be selected except Channel 0. (Channel 0 is reserved for a
common alert such as a fire alarm.)
To change channels on Tactum you need the “Channel Selector, Lynx Tactum”, which you can
purchase from us.

charger. Clean the charging pins with a small brush. To change the battery for the clock mechanism or
vibrator, contact the place of purchase.

Ontvanger voor het Lynx-systeem in een elegant horloge
Tactum is een onderdeel van Lynx – ons draadloos alarmsysteem voor doven en
slechthorenden. Lynx maakt gebruik van diverse typen zenders en ontvangers die de
gebruiker waarschuwen voor geluiden zoals een telefoon, deurbel, of b.v. brandalarm.
Tactum is in staat verschillende waarschuwingssignalen van b.v. deurbelzender of de
telefoonzender te ontvangen. De symbolen verschijnen op de wijzerplaat en tege-
lijkertijd trilt het horloge. Het trilpatroon is afhankelijk van het ontvangen signaal.
Indien nodig kunt u het ontvangst bereik vergroten door extra Repeaters (versterkers)
te plaatsen.

Tactum opladen
Tactum moet volledig worden opgeladen voordat
u deze in gebruik neemt. Het duurt circa 7 uur om
Tactum volledig op te laden. De accu zal vervolgens
circa 20 uur werken. Ook tijdens het opladen zal het
horloge eventuele meldingen ontvangen!
Een reservebatterij in de lader zorgt ervoor dat de lader ook
tijdens een netstoring gedurende 24 uur zal werken, inclusief
de 7 uur die nodig is om het horloge op te laden.
Plaats Tactum in de lader. Op het horloge wordt een
batterijsymbool weergegeven. Deze verdwijnt wan-
neer het laden voltooid is.
Installatie en functietest
1. Voordat u de zenders installeert raden wij u aan eerst de gebruiksaanwijzing te lezen.
2. Test het waarschuwingssysteem door de aangesloten zenders één voor één te activeren.
Tactum begint te trillen en het desbetreffende indicatiesymbool licht op. Controleer
of het juiste alarm wordt aangegeven (zie hieronder).
Alarmweergave
Tactum kan maximaal zeven
verschillende meldingen
ontvangen.
Tactum trilt volgens een
bepaald patroon en het sym-
bool voor de bijbehorende
melding licht op. Het trilsig-
naal wordt één keer herhaald.
