Medical Emergency Alarms

Micron’s supervised personal emergency response system (ER-1) has been specifically designed for medical alert applications for the infirm and the elderly. In the event of a personal or medical emergency, the user presses a button on their emergency pendant, belt clip or wristwatch, or the main console, and ER-1 will call a central monitoring station over the public telephone network.

When the emergency activation is sent to the monitoring station the ER-1 console may be programmed to automatically answer the telephone and establish hands free telephone communication through the ER-1 console. The console also provides visual and audible indications of the event.

The monitoring station can establish end user communications via the ER-1 console in one of three modes, as selected by the central station operator. Communications can be hands free duplex, one way speak only or one way listen only. These communication modes are dynamic and are selected to ensure communications are clear and accurate.

After an emergency activation has been dealt with by the monitoring station, as specified by the user, ER-1 can automatically send up to three emails to care givers, family or medical practitioners.

ER-1 can be sited on a table top or mounted on a wall and can be programmed to accept up to 16 wireless transmitters. For the visually impaired, each button on the ER-1 is embossed with a universal symbol to identify the button’s function.

A user activated medication reminder function beeps the console for up to thirty seconds, at a pre-determined time every 24 hour period. This function helps ensure important medication is taken at the correct time, each day.

ER-1 is mains powered, with a rechargeable backup battery that provides power for emergency activations up to 40 hours after a mains power failure. ER-1 connects to a standard telephone socket and auto detects loss of the telephone circuit.

Includes one ERU-TX wristband/pendant/beltclip wireless transmitter.
