Trouble Shooting

If your system does not function when tested, follow these steps:

1. Verify that you are using a fully charged battery, if the

battery is low, the low battery light on the face of the

monitor will flash, and the monitor will emit a short beep. If

this occurs, immediately replace the existing battery with a

new battery. After the new battery is inserted, the warning

light will stop flashing and the short beep will stop. NEVER

use the device when the battery is low.

2. If using the AC adapter, verify that it is properly plugged in

to both the unit and the wall.

3. When using wired pads, verify that the pad is plugged

securely into the monitor.

• WArning - If the Pad Lost light is flashing and the alert is

beeping, the alert has lost communication with the wireless

pad. Make sure that the alert is within 20 feet of the wireless

pad, and is programmed properly.

4. For wireless pads, verify that the pad is programmed to

the Alert.

5. Determine which piece of equipment may need to be

replaced by either:

a. Taking a known working monitor and testing it with the

bed/chair pad; if the system works properly, the problem

is with the original monitor

b. Taking a known working bed/chair pad and testing it with

the monitor; if the system works properly, the problem is

with the original bed/chair pad.

• WArning – If these troubleshooting tips do not resolve

the problem, immediately take the Alert out of service,

substitute another working Alert, and contact Direct Supply

Equipment & Furnishings.

• WArning – Some generic 9V batteries have non-

standard terminal spacing that may cause interference

problems in the battery compartment. If you have problems

inserting the battery into the battery compartment, or if

the alarm fails to sound with a battery inserted, verify the

brand of the 9V battery being used, and replace with a

name-brand battery if appropriate.
