Automatic Dial Testing

If a Rescue Alert subscriber prefers a silent test that requires no interaction, the medical alert may be programmed to preform the Automatic Dial Test instead of the Automatic Voice Test. If you choose to use the Automatic Dial Test, we encourage you to perform a Manual Test on your medical alert at least once a month.

The following occurs during an Automatic Dial Test:

• The medical alert automatically sends a silent test signal during midnight hours.
• If your telephone is being used, the medical alert system waits until the line is available.
• The Response Center computer acknowledges the test signal.
• The circuitry of the medical alert base unit is tested.
• If the Response Center does not receive the expected test, a friendly attendant will contact you the next day to help determine the cause.
• Testing can be scheduled for any regular interval.
