Accessories

We offer a range of supporting accessories to our base units. Our Pearl transceivers (Pendants and Fall Detection), can detect falls and allow users to easily call for help when they cannot reach their base unit. Our pendants have an industry leading range of 300m+ so that an alarm can be raised from anywhere in the home. Chiptech can also connect to a wide variety on external devices through the SID range. If you have other devices you would like to connect to a Chiptech base unit then please get in touch.

Pearl Alarm Button

The Pearl range contains Chiptech’s standard alarm button offering with many wearing options including Brooch, Watch, Pendant or Easy Press.  

The Pearl range is IP68 waterproof and has a range of 300m providing superior protection inside the home and outside in the garden. Pearl also benefits from a transceiver meaning that it has advanced communication with the base unit. With its flashing lights around the outer edge, the unit gives confidence to the end user by providing reassurance that their alert for help has been received by the base unit. This feature helps installers to accurately range test around the house and garden area. Pearl can also be setup to self-test giving the optimum in safety and reassurance.

The Pearl Pendant has a surgical grade stainless steel chain with clasp, which will break if significant pressure is applied.

Pearl Advanced

 

Pearl Advanced is a smart, easy to wear pendant with fall detection technology. If a fall is detected, or if the personal help button is pressed, Pearl Advanced communicates bi-directionally with a Chiptech base unit, which sends an alert to the Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC), summoning help for the user.

Pearl Advanced is also a body worn Inactivity Sensor, providing alerts in the event if non-movement in a predetermined time.

Pearl Advanced has an elegant, discrete, casing that is hot waterproof and can be worn in the bath or shower. A 300m range of the base unit provides reassurance and safety around the areas of the home and garden.

International research has found that even if there may not be any direct injury from the fall, for those that lie on the floor for longer than an hour the consequences can be dire.

Pearl Advanced is a specialised help button worn as a pendant, or clip-on pendant. It is designed to detect and summon help automatically if the wearer has experienced a fall, and also features a help button in case of an emergency. It uses a comprehensive algorithm to detect a fall and subsequent impact. The six stage algorithm is designed to ensure that a fall by a person will automatically summon help and that false activations are minimised.

Pearl Advanced features a unique shake-to-cancel period. When a fall is detected, the pendant looks for significant movement which would automatically cancel an alert being sent to the base unit. If no movement is detected in this time period,  Pearl Advanced then sounds a warning beep to signify it is about to send an alert for help.

Significant movement within the warning beep time stops the signal from being sent to the base unit. Once the signal is received by the base unit, there is the standard pre-alarm period which gives the user another opportunity to stop the alert being sent by pressing the cancel button. If the user does not cancel the warning message, then a fall detected alert is sent to the monitoring centre. The operator follows a specific response procedure which may include trying to contact the person and sending help if required.

Pearl Advanced has four available settings; these can be changed to suit the end user requirements, including settings for people with epilepsy, those with cognitive disabilities, and high risk very frail users.

Wall Mount Help Button

The Wall Mount Help Button utilises Pearl RF technology to communicate wirelessly with Chiptech EVA and EVE base units. The Wall Mount Button is a fixed button for users to press to raise an alert for assistance and can be used as an alternative option to a Bogus Call or Pull Cord. Pressing the help button will initiate the base unit pre-alarm and subsequent emergency activation to be sent. This can only be cancelled by pressing the CANCEL button on the base unit.

The Wall Mount Help Button plate is an industry-standard sized fitting, and will retrofit over old wired call points, or can be used in new installation locations. It is learned into the Chiptech base unit in the same manner as a standard pendant, by activating the button during Learn Mode. In Range Test Mode, you will hear two counts as the Wall Mount Help Button is pressed, then released, sending an activation signal to the base unit.

Chiptech recommends regular monthly testing of all fixed Wall Mount Help Buttons to ensure they are working as expected.

SID Connect
