USER MANUAL
If, when simulating an alarm (see manual), the red
LED on the case flashes more than once per sec-
ond, this indicates weak signal strength, so using
the product is not recommended.
- A call may be missed during temporary over-
loading of the GSM network (e.g. during the
hour after New Year);
- Always check that the system is working correct-
ly before placing the unit on the mare.
2. ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION
The transmitter must be mounted on the anti-roll
bar. All the parts and fittings are included in the
packaging.
On and off
There is no on/off button on the transmitter. The
principle is simple: when the battery is connected
the transmitter is always in standby mode (the
power consumption in standby mode gives a max-
imum life of 3 months).
The transmitter only transmits when it is vertical (in
other words as soon as the mare lies down com-
pletely flat). The red signal light on the transmitter
will then come on.
In order to prevent the battery from being unnec-
essarily drained which could cause leakage, it is
advisable to take the battery out of the transmitter
if it is not being used for a long period. Otherwise
always hang up the transmitter in a horizontal posi-
tion when it is not being used.
The transmitter is damaged...
... Return the transmitter to us immediately. We will
test the transmitter for you and replace any dam-
aged parts.
Tip – how to use the girth

should be just a bit looser than a saddle girth.
If the girth is too loose, the Birth Alarm GSM can
