User Manual

the sensor by placing a clean metal conductor (such as a key, screwdriver or knife) across the two magnets and making good electrical contact. This activates the sensor. The steady Green is followed by blinking Green every 5 seconds. Ten (10) seconds after the Synch is set, the Receiver will switch itself OFF.Notes: If the new synchronization is not completed within 15 seconds, the Blue light will stop and the Receiver will revert to its synchronization before the new synchronization was attempted, and switch itself OFF. Once the Sensor has been activated it cannot be activated again for two (2) minutes.Do not synchronize the DryBuddy1 while the Receiver is indicating a low battery (Yellow blinking light). Insert fresh batteries and synchronize. The Sync button will not function when the power is ON.You must re-synchronize the Sensor and Receiver if either the Sensor or the Receiver are changed or synchronization is lost for any reason.DryBuddy1 Instructions & Details (Con’t)34 5 61 2The DryBuddy1 oers convenience, privacy and reliability to patients (or children) who need to be alerted when enuresis, bed-wetting or unintentional urination occurs. It is truly wireless, and can be used when the DryBuddy1 Receiver is being carried by the patient or is within proximity (up to 3 meters or 10 feet) of the wireless Sensor being used by the patient.DryBuddy1 ControlsAll controls of the DryBuddy1 are on the circular side of the DryBuddy1 Receiver. Except for the On/O switches, these switches are below the surface and can be reached and pressed by using a dull pointed instrument such as a small screw driver or straightened metal paper clip. This prevents any accidental or unintentional switching of the DryBuddy1.Switching the DryBuddy1 ON and OFFWhen the two Power ON/OFF buttons are pressed together for two (2) seconds, the power will be turned ON or OFF. When the power is turned ON, a Green light will ash twice. When the power is turned OFF, a Red light will ash twice. When the Receiver power is OFF, pressing the small control buttons (switches) on the side turns the Receiver on briey so that the buttons can function and the Receiver is set to the next new setting for the button being pressed. When the Receiver power is ON, pressing the small Mode button activates the Receiver and indicates the current setting of the Receiver. (Mode, Sound and Volume). The Vol. and Sound buttons will not function when the Power is ON.SynchThe DryBuddy1 Sensor and Receiver must be synchronized so that they work with the same code. A new DryBuddy1 system has been synchronized at the factory. To re-synchronize, rst make certain that the Power is OFF. Then:1. Press the Sync button in the side. A Blue light will ash, and the Receiver is placed in synchronization mode for fteen (15) seconds. 2. While the Blue light is ashing, short the two magnets on ModeThe Mode switch allows the user to change the mode or type of alert. When the power is ON: Pressing the Mode button plays the current settings for the Receiver. When the power is OFF: Each “press” of the switch will result in the alert changing in the following order:1. Sound only2. Sound + Strong Vibration3. Strong Vibration only4. Low Vibration onlyEach time that the Mode switch is pressed, the alert only changes in the direction 1. → 2. → 3. → 4. → 1.VolumeThe Vol + and - buttons increase or decrease the volume level of the sound. The DryBuddy1 has ve (5) volume levels. The mode must be set to Music so that the sound can be heard.When the power is OFF: Pressing the + or - button changes the sound setting to the higher or lower volume setting and this new volume is heard briey. If the sound volume is to be increased or decreased further, press the + or – buttons again. Note: The volume buttons set the sound volume to what will be heard if the DryBuddy1 is set to the Sound or Sound+Vibration modes.Note: The Volume buttons will not function when the power is ON.SoundThe DryBuddy1 oers two audible alarms – a Trumpet Fanfare and a Berlin Police Siren. The sound can be changed by pressing the Sound button. The mode must be set to Music so that the sound can be heard.When the power is OFF: Pressing the Sound button changes the sound to the next sound - either the Trumpet Fanfare or the Berlin Police Siren.Note: The Sound button will not function when the power is ON.Length of AlertIf the alarm’s alert is not turned OFF manually, the alarm can continue for a Short Alert time or a Long Alert time. With a Short Alert, the alert will stop after about 2 minutes, and the Receiver will be switched OFF. This is the default (factory) setting for the DryBuddy1.With a Long Alert, the alert will keep repeating its alert cycle till the Receiver is manually switched OFF or the batteries are drained. To set the length of the alert, rst press the Synch button. While the Blue sync light is ashing for 15 seconds:1. For a Short Alert, press the Vol. – button. A yellow light will ash once.2. For a Long Alert, press the Vol. + button. A yellow light will ash twice.The Receiver automatically turns itself OFF after the Yellow light ashes. The Receiver must now be switched ON again in order to continue using the DryBuddy1.When to SychronizeEvery DryBuddy1 Sensor has its own unique code transmitted to the Receiver. This allows many DryBuddy1 systems to be in close proximity without interfering with one another. If the Sensor is changed or synchronization lost for any reason, the Sensor and Receiver must be synchronized again.Do not synchronize the DryBuddy1 while the Receiver is indicating a low battery (Yellow blinking light). Insert fresh batteries and synchronize.DryBuddy1 Instructions & Details DryBuddy1 Instructions & Details (Con’t)Using the DryBuddy1 Using the DryBuddy1 (Con’t)DryBuddy1 Instructions & Details (Con’t)
Receiver• Uses two (2) replaceable AAA alkaline batteries. • Uses a unique coding system so that it can only be used with a DryBuddy1 Sensor. • Must be synchronized with a DryBuddy1 Sensor. • Typical reception distance is up to three (3) meters or ten (10) feet from the Sensor. The actual transmission distance depends upon object and materials between the Sensor and Receiver.Sensor• Can be attached to standard cotton briefs using the patented magnetic attachment system, or• Can be attached to optional DryBuddy wetness sensing briefs which contain patented redundant wiring. These briefs provide a reliable and very large wetness sensing area.• Uses a unique coding system so that it can only be used with a DryBuddy1 Receiver.• Must be synchronized with a DryBuddy1 Receiver.• Typical transmission distance is up to three (3) meters or ten (10) feet to the Receiver.
