Description of functions

Doro CareIP® Mobile is a digital alarm unit with a built in GSM module, the unit has possibility to transfer alarms over broadband/network connections and mobile telephone networks. The unit offers the user the possibility of two way voice communication using existing standard for VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) calling.
The unit uses SIP, a standard protocol to initiate speech and video over broadband connections. In addition to voice connected alarm calls, Doro CareIP® Mobile offers a platform for transfer of detailed alarm information, speech messages, online status etc.
The Doro CareIP® Mobile is assigned an unique identification number (ID) that is transferred and corresponding to personal information stored in the alarm receiving centre (ARC).
The radio trigger is adapted for use with the unit, see 9. Radio trigger on p. 12.

The assistance alarm can be activated:

  1. by pressing the button on a radio trigger.
  2. by pressing the red button on the Doro CareIP® Mobile.
  3. by pulling the pull cord (only available when Doro CareIP® Mobile is wall mounted). The pull cord can be ordered separately.

On activation, the Doro CareIP® Mobile calls an alarm receiver to summon help. There is a possibility to attach up to four (4) different wired triggers.

Alarm transmitters
Ten (10) radio transmitters can be programmed with the Doro CareIP® Mobile, e.g. a radio trigger. In the event of an alarm from a radio transmitter, the battery status of the radio transmitter is tested.
Alarm receivers
Up to ten (10) alarm receivers can be programmed. The alarm is identified using an alarm code which is programmed into the Doro CareIP® Mobile. An alarm placed to a private receiver is identified by a recorded voice ID.
The person receiving the alarm can then speak directly with the person raising the alarm and take appropriate action.
