Personal Safety

Alarmex, Inc. is proud to be on the forefront of the Personal Safety Industry. We recognize people want to feel safe regardless of whether they’re in their own home - or out and about. Accordingly, we offer two programs that are tailored to both the active person, and to people who spend a majority of time in the comfort of their own home.

Protection Away from Home - MyPersonna

For the mobile individual, Alarmex, Inc. takes advantage of the latest technology to offer MyPersonna, a mobile, hand-held Personal Emergency Reporting Device. Unlike other GPS devices, customers using MyPersonna from Alarmex will have an operator standing by at all times to assist you. Not only is there a built-in panic button on the device - but you can program the device via our secured web browser so that you are alerted in the event the device enters/leaves a defined "Geo-Fence".

The applications for this device are endless - but here are a few suggestions:

• Young children at school
• Teenagers driving their first car
• Skiers & others who enjoy remote winter sports
• Boaters
• Active senior citizens

Protection At Home:

For those who either spend a majority of their time at home or are primarily concerned about needing assistance only while in their home, we are pleased to announce our Personal Emergency Reporting System, a supervised wireless emergency reporting product designed for medical alert applications. The tabletop or wall-mount Console provides push-button emergency assistance to anyone who desires additional security and peace of mind. For the visually impaired, each button on the Console is molded with Braille characters to identify the button’s function.

The Console receives signals from up to 16 wireless transmitters. Activating a transmitter causes the Console’s digital communicator to send the appropriate alarm report to the central monitoring station via the standard telephone network. In addition to the central station report, audible and visual indications occur and the alarm relay energizes during an emergency activation.

The emergency alarm can be triggered by the large EMERGENCY button on the face of the Console or with a wireless transmitter. The fire alarm can be triggered by wireless smoke alarms.

The optional activity timer can be set for 8, 12 or 24-hour operation. The emergency alarm will trigger automatically if the time set elapses before an activity transmitter is triggered or the Console’s HOME button is pressed.

If the optional voice board is installed, the Console will talk to the user. The digitized voice will sound emergency, fire, timer done soon, and other system operation, setup, and supervisory prompts from a 38-word vocabulary.

The Console can be programmed to act as a remote-controlled speakerphone. With the speakerphone mode enabled, the Console will monitor the telephone line for an incoming call. Activating any emergency transmitter (or the Console’s EMERGENCY button) while the telephone is ringing will cause the Console to seize the line and begin full duplex voice communications. Activating any emergency transmitter (or EMERGENCY button) during the call will disconnect the line. The Console will auto-disconnect after 15, 30, or 60 minutes (programmable).

Supervised transmitters regularly send status reports to the Console and low-battery reports when their batteries are low. When the Console receives a low-battery report, the TROUBLE indicator flashes. If the Console fails to receive a status report from a transmitter for a period of 24 hours, the TROUBLE indicator will light. All supervisory conditions can sound a local annunciation and be reported to the central station.

Powered by a low-voltage plug-in transformer, the Console has provisions for a rechargeable backup battery for operation during AC power outages. A power switch allows for out-of-service storage of the Console without discharge of the battery. The battery is recharged and supervised by the Console. If the backup battery becomes low, the POWER light will flash and the condition can be reported to the central station.
