The unboxed transmitter can be connected to a thirdparty device to initiate an
alarm call on an Advent XT2 assisted living system, a Reach IP at-home alarm
unit or a Carer Response local Carer alarm unit.
The third-party device the transmitter is being connected to must have a
momentary action, normally open clean contact relay output that closes on
alarm.
The transmitter is factory programmed with the relevant radio code for the
type of device it is being connected to.
Positioning
The transmitter should be mounted inside the third-party device and be connected to its alarm output terminals. Secure the transmitter in place with the self-adhesive pad provided on the battery.
Alarm Condition
When the third-party device is activated an alarm call will be transmitted. A new alarm will not be triggered until the device has reset and is activated again.
Low Battery Condition
A low battery condition will be reported automatically to the Alarm Receiving
Centre (ARC) or the local Manager. The transmitter should be replaced as soon
as possible within 30 days. The transmitter can be returned to Tynetec for
battery replacement.
Out of Range Notification (Reach IP)
The Reach IP can monitor all radio peripheral devices to determine whether they have been damaged or removed from an installation. Should the Reach IP be unable to detect a device’s heartbeat it will automatically generate a “radio out of range” notification. Firstly, investigate if there’s a genuine reason for the alert, if not, arrange for the peripheral device to be replaced immediately. The “Radio out of range timer” can be set from 30 hours to 99999 hours in Pulse CMP. “Radio supervision” can be disabled by unchecking the tick box associated with each peripheral device in Pulse CMP.
Maintenance
Test the transmitter once every month.
Disposal
**** Waste electrical products should not be disposed of with normal household waste. The unboxed transmitter is ideally suited for disposal within the waste electronic and electrical equipment (WEEE) recycling scheme. Please recycle where facilities exist. Check with your local authority or contact your supplier for recycling/disposal advice.
Warning
The transmitter contains a Lithium battery. If tampered with the battery may
be damaged and create a fire hazard.
No attempt should be made to remove or replace the battery. Do not incinerate.
How to install the Transmitter
The transmitter is designed for internal use only, it is not suitable for
external applications.
The transmitter should be mounted inside the device it is being connected to.

the black and orange wires on the transmitter as shown here 
Perform several test calls to check the third-party device is
