Overview

Alarming occurs if a child succeeds in unlatching the gate, if the gate fails to re-latch after adult entry, or if a child wearing a Turtle wristband - see Child Immersion Alarm - goes in the water.

A standard wireless gate alarm consists of:

• One or more gate alarm sensors of the same color
• A "baby Turtle" coding plug for Base Station
• A Standard Base Station 

Features

The Safety Turtle wireless gate alarm offers many unique security and convenience features:

• It’s wireless, which allows you to decide where alarming occurs, within 250 ft. [75 m.] of gate. Other systems alarm only at the gate, where you may not hear it.
• The adult bypass switch on top of the unit means the Safety Turtle gate sensor never has to be disarmed. It provides an 11 second entry time so the alarm sounds on child entry but not on adult entry.
• Entry time can be extended by holding or repeatedly depressing the switch within 11 seconds.
• LED on sensor illuminates during bypass period.  It also confirms battery is functioning.
• Alarm qualified to operate in weather year-round.
• The alarm volume can be reduced temporarily for testing.
• Replaceable sensor battery [included] lasts 30,000 entries.
• Simple sensor low battery test.
• The Safety Turtle system can be progressively expanded through the purchase of additional sensors(s) of the same color.
• By using different colors of Turtle, neighbors can enjoy the benefits of Safety Turtle without triggering each other's alarms.

The Wireless Gate Alarm may be used in conjunction with the Child/Pet Immersion Alarm, which provides continuous protection of the wearer. Turtle Wristbands and a Wireless Gate Alarm of the same color, can share the same Base Station.
