Vibra - Call Receiver
Model – VC4002-2
General
The new Silent Call Vibra-Call
M
receiver is a body worn portable alerting device that alerts the user with coded
vibrations It is used in conjunction with any Silent Call transmitter such as the telephone, doorbell, smoke
detector and/or sound monitor. When this receiver detects a signal from a Silent Call transmitter, it activates its
vibrator with a predetermined output vibration for each type of transmitted signal.
Operation
Turn the Vibra-Call receiver on by moving the power switch to the ON position, to the right when worn on the
belt. When turned on for the first time, the vibrator will pulse continuous short pulses (FIRE) , signaling the last
alarm that was received as this is the factory default test used. These are a couple of the distinguishing features
of the new revised Vibra-Call. Another is the pushbutton used for programming that replaced the dip switch.
Each time the Vibra-Call receives a signal from a Silent Call transmitter with a matching code; the Vibra-Call
receiver will vibrate a particular type pulse. The Vibrator will remain on until the distinguishing pulse pattern
has been completed. Switching the On / Off switch from OFF to ON activates the recall function which will
turn on the vibrator pulses of the last transmitted signal the Vibra-Call received. The Vibra-Call receiver battery
may be tested by moving the power switch momentarily to the TEST position, push to the left when worn on
the belt.
The Vibra-Call receiver is supplied with a rechargeable Nickel Metal Hydride 9V battery. In normal operation,
the unit will function for approximately two to three days per charge. However, for the most reliable operation,
recharge the battery each night when you go to bed by using the Sleep Alert Charger. Also, do not leave the
unit on when you are not using it as the battery can be damaged by running it completely down. Not all “9V”
rechargeable batteries are the same, and we recommend you purchase replacement batteries from Silent Call.
Although it is not recommended, except in an emergency, the Vibra-Call receiver may be operated with a
standard alkaline battery. However, if you use an alkaline battery YOU MUST NEVER ATTEMPT TO
RECHARGE THE BATTERY. Doing so will cause the battery to burst and destroy the Vibra-Call circuitry,
voiding the warranty.

your transmitters.
