Motion Sensor

The ACU contains a sensor which will report motion if the ACU is moved by the participant once

it has been installed. Normal household activities could cause movement such as the ACU being

bumped or being moved to clean.

When the ACU senses motion, it will immediately record a motion event. In order to move the

ACU any distance it would be necessary for the participant to disconnect both the AC power and

telephone. If the ACU records a Telephone Disconnect, Telephone Connect, AC Disconnect and/or

AC Connect event within two (2) minutes

before or after an motion event, the motion event will be

recorded as an “Alarm Motion”. If there is no Telephone or AC message, the motion event will be

recorded as an “..info motion” message.

The following examples show various ways the motion is reported and when a motion alarm would be

reported:

A. An AC or telephone event occurs, then within two minutes a motion event occurs, the ACU will

report the following:

Event reported

Explanation

Alarm No AC - AC was disconnected, no previous motion was recently evident

Alarm Motion - motion is sensed within 2 minutes of the AC disconnect.

B. A motion event occurs, there was no prior AC or Telephone related event, the ACU will report the

following:

Event reported

Explanation

..Info Motion - motion was sensed, no previous recent AC or Telephone event.

C. Motion occurs, then within 2 minutes an AC or Telephone disconnect occurs, the ACU will report

the following:
