permanent marker. The usable life of this pad is 365 days.

Step 4: While the pager is in pairing mode, a red light should flash over the device number (#1-10) that you are attempting to pair the alarm with. While this light is flashing, press the button on the transmitter once to wake it up, then hold for 5 seconds until the alarm light on the transmitter flashes orange. Then release the button on the transmitter.
Step 5: The pager will beep to signal a successful connection. Then it will re-enter programming mode in case you need to connect other wireless devices. If you do not need to connect more devices press and hold both the UP and DOWN arrows on the front of the pager to exit programming mode.
Step 6: Test the connection by sitting down on the sensor pad and standing up. The alarm should sound on the pager and the connected channel number should flash in red while the alarm sounds. To silence the alarm press the STOP button on the pager. If this does not occur follow these steps again from the beginning or contact us for help.
Note: The wireless pager sounds the alerts given from the sensor pad. The pager is sold separately.
