14 Sitter Elite
To Record a Message
The Posey Sitter Elite has a feature that allows a caregiver or family member to communicate a
verbal “warning” message about unassisted bed, chair or toilet exit to a patient without having
to be physically in the room with the patient.
1. Lift the programming control
protective cover (fig. 14).
2. Ensure alarm is on and either
sensor pad, chair belt sensor,
or magnet is attached to alarm.
Ensure pressure is on sensor pad,
chair belt sensor is connected, or
magnet is on face plate.
3. Ensure alarm mode is set to
“Voice and Tone” or “Voice”
(nurse call option only) to hear
recording.
4. Press and hold the RECORD
button on left side of alarm
(fig. 15).
5. Wait for the “beep” before
speaking. Continue to hold
RECORD button down until you
are done speaking.
6. In a normal voice, speak into microphone aperture
labeled MIC on front, top left corner of alarm (fig. 16).
NOTE: Changing alarm volume will not change message
recording volume. Your distance from the MIC and how
loud you speak controls message volume. To increase
volume, re-record message in a louder voice, with your
mouth closer to MIC.
7. Recording will stop when you release the RECORD
button or time (10 seconds) expires. If you exceed the
time allowed, recording will stop and the alarm will
“beep”.
8. Replace the programming control protective cover,
securing it into place.
9. After recording message, either disengage magnet,
remove weight from sensor, or unfasten chair belt sensor
to play message back. Ensure alarm mode is set to “Voice
and Tone” or “Voice” (nurse call option only) to hear
recording.
10. Check that the message is clear and volume is right for your patient. Re-record if necessary.
11. If message does not record, or if both the batteries and the AC power adapter are removed
for more than four (4) minutes, factory default message will play.
