A Comfort Beep is a single beep of the audible alarm at 60-second intervals that informs the
person using the MultiRAE that it is functioning. It can be turned on or off.
Man Down Alarm
The Man Down Alarm is a critical and potentially lifesaving feature of every MultiRAE. The Man
Down Alarm is based on the premise that if the instrument is motionless or fall-down when it is
not supposed to be, something wrong may be happening to its user. If that is the case, a
wirelessly enabled MultiRAE not only goes into alarm locally on the instrument to notify people
in the vicinity, but also remotely, over a wireless network, to transmit the alarm to remote safety
officers at a command center, that a person is down, so that help can be dispatched quickly.
Whenever the Man Down feature is enabled, the main screen displays a Man Down icon along
the top to indicate it is active:
The MultiRAE has a 3D gravity sensor that can track the slightest motion of the instrument in
any direction. If the instrument is not moved during that time, then a pre-alarm is activated to
alert the user, and shows the "Are You OK?" screen. Pressing [Y/+] clears the alarm and returns
the MultiRAE to its normal operation. Pressing [N/-] sets it into Man Down Alarm (and if
wireless connectivity is enabled, a Man Down message is sent in real time to remote observers).
If neither key is pressed, then after the countdown, it goes into Man Down Alarm (again sending
a message to remote observers if wirelessly enabled).
