Using Your MedSmart
Testing & Operating
Dispensing Medication at Reminder/
Alarm Times
1. At the programmed reminder times the
MedSmart will emit the chosen alarm sound
and the reminder light will begin to flash.
Both audio alarm and light will continue to
flash as a reminder to take the pills now
available under the dispensing door.
2. To remove pills, pick up the MedSmart
Unit and tip it over so that the available
medications spill into your hand or an
available receptacle.
3. Place Unit back onto the Docking Base or, if
traveling, back onto an appropriate surface
on its own base feet. The MedSmart will not
advance if left upside down. Pack face up when
traveling.
When the Unit is tipped for dispensing, a
sensor signals both alarm and light to stop.
The Unit will now display the Reminder/Alarm
Time for the next dose to be dispensed.
NOTE: When lifting the MedSmart
Dispensing Unit be certain not
to lift the Docking Base as this
could dislodge the power cord
and cause the Docking Base to
stop functioning.
Always check to make sure that the
MedSmart Unit is properly seated
onto the Docking Base and the
POWER light is illuminated GREEN
.
If the POWER light is off, check
the connections to the Docking
Base and the wall. If the light
is still not illuminated go to the
Troubleshooting section of manual
on page 20.
