System
Components
The CareGard ® system is composed of
the control panel and a multi-purpose
panic sensor.
Control Panel
The control panel (60-883-95R) is the
processing unit for all functions. It
receives signals from panic sensors and
reports emergencies through the phone
line. Medication reminders and activity
timers are scheduled using the control
panel and reminders are given through
the panel speaker.
When the panel cover is closed, the
panel buttons operate the emergency
notification system. The user operates
the panel by pressing panel buttons. See
the CareGard User Instructions for
complete operating instructions.
When the panel cover is open, the but-
tons are used to program the emergency
notification system. The panel can be
programmed on-site by the installer or
user.
Multi-Purpose Panic
The Multi-Purpose Panic Sensor (60-906-95) is a wireless device designed to be used throughout
the installation site. The sensor is worn on the wrist, as a pendant, or on a belt. The panel can be
programmed to supervise the Wrist Panic.
Optional
Components
The usefulness of the CareGard system can be increased by adding the following wireless
devices.
The optional Pendant Panic Sensor (60-578)* is a wireless device designed to be used through-
out the installation site. The sensor can be worn around the neck with a removable cord
(included) or on the user’s belt with an optional leather belt holster. The panel can be pro-
grammed to supervise the Pendant Panic.
A Repeater (60-615-10-319.5)* can be added to the CareGard System in order to boost the range
of the wireless sensors.
Smoke Alarms (60-848-02-95)* can be added to the CareGard System to provide warning in
case of fire.
The optional Carbon Monoxide Alarm (60-652-95)* is used to detect hazardous levels of carbon
monoxide.
Freeze Sensors (60-742-95R)* send a signal to the CareGard panel when the temperature drops
below a certain level. They can be used to detect a broken furnace or windows left open.
Water Sensors (60-744-95R)* can alert users to a flooding basement or an overflowing bathtub
or sink.
Door/Window Sensors (60-670-95R)* can be added to the system and set up to work with the
activity timer function of CareGard.
Motion Sensors (60-807-95R)* can be added to the CareGard system and set up to work with the
activity timer function of CareGard. Motion sensors detect movement within a certain area. They
can be set up to reduce false detections caused by pets.
An Interrogator
®
200 Audio Verification Module (60-787)* can be added to the CareGard Sys-
tem to expand the range of 2-way voice communication to other rooms or floors of the home.
