TERMINOLOGY
Warnings, cautions and notes used in this manual have the following significance:
NOTE
Procedures and techniques that are considered important enough to emphasize.
CAUTION
Procedures and techniques which, if not carefully followed, will result in
damage to the equipment.
WARNINGS
Thank you for purchasing and using Honeywell products. Please read the
instructions carefully before using.
If you use, store or maintain the product in any way other than defined in
this manual, we and our agent refuse to assume all responsibilities.
You shall prevent the product from all the dangerous damage related to the
working environment, including but not being limited to high temperature,
electrical shock, mechanical impact, acid and alkaline solution, more than 1m
drop, etc.
Industrial operation environment is dangerous and complex, which may cause
serious accidents and injuries. We remind you that you will be responsible for
any accident or injury or death that occurs to you or a third party during or
after the use of our products.
Our products are for use only by competent persons who have received formal
training or operate under the supervision and guidance of a competent and
experienced person.
Make sure you are fully trained in using this personal protection product and
that you fully understand how it works. If in doubt, do not take risks. Seek
guidance from others.
Before using the device, check whether the device is suitable for the site
environment and ensure that the device can play its proper role. (cont.)
Please carefully check the configuration and connection of
your smartphone when connecting it to work to ensure that the Bluetooth and
GPS positioning functions of your smartphone device are enabled and the data
network connection is unblocked. We and our agent refuse to assume all
responsibilities for any consequences caused by the abnormal connection and
work of your smartphone.
If any component works improperly or if any component is lost or damaged, stop
using the equipment.
Before each use of the device, please check the working status of the device
and the connection between the device and the mobile phone. If there is any
problem, please contact authorized service for repair.
In order to avoid false alarms caused by jumping, fast movement and other
actions, the critical value of the equipment’s fall alarm is set to be
triggered by a free fall of 1.2 meters or more, and the free fall below 1.2
meters will not trigger the fall accident alarm.
Because this equipment has the function of fainting alarm, proximity alarm
etc., to avoid false alarm, please turn it off when you are off work or taking
a nap with the device on.
The proximity alarm function of the product is only used to remind the user of
the forklift approaching, and it cannot avoid actively the collision of the
forklift. In case of forklift collision accident, we and our agent refuse to
assume any responsibility.
When the device is in charging, all alarm functions will be deactivated even
when the device is powered on.
INTERFACE
The SMART MAIN MODULE communicates with the Safety Communicator App via
Bluetooth™. The data from the Safety Communicator App is then collected in a
cloud-based server and further evaluated in a Control Centre.
The PROXIMITY BEACON sends out UWB wireless signal that is detected by the
SMART MAIN MODULE to determine the distance of the two.
