
Press and hold the test button for 3 seconds.

After the button lights up green, the Base Station will announce “user auto-test.”


If you press your neck pendant or wrist button, the Base Station will say “test call sent to emergency response center” several times and your Mobile Device will beep.

Next, you will hear an announcement thanking you for testing your device.



If you did push your help button when prompted to do so and the Base Station announced “user auto-test failed, please contact support” please contact our technical support department at 1-877-827-6207.

If you did not push your button when prompted to do so, the Base Station will still announce “user auto-test failed, please contact support.” However, since you did not push your button when prompted to do so, there is no reason to contact support.

Why is the emergency operator having trouble understanding me?
The microphones in the Base Station and Mobile Device are very sensitive, and will pick up surrounding noises from your television, radio, wind from ceiling fans, and the like.

Why is my help button not activating my Base Station/Mobile Device?
Be sure to press the help button once firmly in the center to activate your Base Station and/or Mobile Device. A small red light below the pendant or wrist button will flash. If the Base Station and/or Mobile Device does not respond, check to ensure that the help button is in range of the Base Station and/or Mobile Device. If you still have issues with your system, call our customer support team at 1-877-827-6207 and select the technical support option.
