NOTE: The vibration and audible beep will operate for a maximum of (1)
minute to help preserve battery life. The LED will continue to flash the
received alert until the status changes.

SILENCE -or- SNOOZE MODE: If required, the remote’s audible and
vibration feature can be momentarily disabled after a signal is recognized
by holding the Remote Push Button until all four LED’s light and release.
The signal will still be received and indicated by the LED. Audible and
vibration alerts will resume after (3) minutes if the reason for the alert is
not addressed.

Typical Communication Range

The TechALERT

®

remote and base units have a typical open field

communication range of 700 feet. There are several variables that will
affect the total range. Such obstacles as metal buildings, concrete walls,
and other permanent fixtures can reduce the total range of
communication.

Remote Paging


This function is used to locate any Remote Modules that are
synchronized to a Base Module.

Paging a Remote from a Base Module

Press the Base Module Push Button for (1) second and release. The
Base Module will send out a “locate” PAGE signal to all remotes that are
synchronized to it. The remote will continually flash the assigned LED
for one second with a one second pause in between flashes. The
remote will also vibrate and emit an audible signal continuously in one
second intervals with one second pauses in between.

The paging function can be de-activated by pressing the Base Module
Push Button for (1) second and then releasing it.

If the Base Module Push Button is not used to de-activate the paging
function, it will time out after (3) minutes.

CAUTION: Because of the very sensitive measurement
that occurs during some machine operations, DO NOT
activate the Page function from a Base Module while that
machine is in service to avoid disturbing the equipment!
