www.headrushtech.com | +1-720-565-6885 21
6.0 USING THE DEVICE
6.1 How it works – TRU-ALERT Height Sensor
The Height Sensor attaches to a climbing harness and the climber-to-Auto Belay
connection point (e.g. TRU-CLIP Key Link) to monitor climbing activity.
NOTICE
The Height Sensor is only compatible with TRU-CLIP, Self Belay, and Belay
Mate connectors. It is not intended for use with other auto belay connection types or climbing ropes.
When unsafe climbing activity* is detected, and the TRU-ALERT system has been
properly installed and tested, the Height Sensor emits audible and visual alerts
to notify the climber and nearby sta. There are two levels of alerts – Height
Warning and Safety Alarm.
*Unsafe climbing activity includes, but is not limited to:
Climbing without proper connection to an Auto Belay
Climbing with slack in the webbing line
Pulling webbing out of the Auto Belay prior to descending
6.1.1 PRIMARY FUNCTION – NORMAL MODE – PAIRED
For best results, Height Sensors must be paired to Reset Remotes. See the Device Pairing section for instructions. Paired Normal Mode is indicated by a slow
green flashing LED.
The Height Sensor uses an Elevation Detector to continuously compare climber
elevation with the average elevation of all paired Reset Remotes. For improved
accuracy, Head Rush Technologies recommends pairing at least five (5) Reset
Remotes to all Height Sensors.
Proper connection to an Auto Belay is monitored by an Orientation Detector
which is attached to the climber-to-Auto Belay connection link. The Orientation
Detector must be installed following the instructions in Section 5.3. When the
climber-to-Auto Belay connection link is pointed downward (i.e. hanging freely
from a climbing harness), the Orientation Detector assumes no connection or
improper connection to an Auto Belay.
22 www.headrushtech.com | +1-720-565-6885
Climber Disconnected or Improperly
Connected – Orientation Detector
pointing downward
Climber Properly Connected – Orientation Detector pointing upward
6.1.2 PRIMARY FUNCTION – NORMAL MODE – UNPAIRED
When unpaired, the Height Sensor uses an Elevation Detector to establish safe
level and continuously monitor climber elevation. Unpaired Normal Mode is
indicated by a quick green flashing LED.
Proper connection to an Auto Belay is monitored by an Orientation Detector
which is attached to the climber-to-Auto Belay connection link (e.g. TRU-CLIP
Key Link). The Orientation Detector must be installed following the instructions in Section 5.3. When the climber-to-Auto Belay connection link is pointed
downward (i.e. hanging freely from a climbing harness), the Orientation Detector assumes no connection or improper connection to an Auto Belay.
NOTICE
Using Height Sensors unpaired from Reset Remotes may result in false
Height Warnings. For best results, Height Sensors must be paired to Reset
Remotes.
www.headrushtech.com | +1-720-565-6885 23
HEIGHT WARNING
Height Warning activates when a climber – who is not properly attached to an
Auto Belay – climbs ~1.5m above ground level.
Height Warning is indicated by a slow repeating chirp sound and a slow repeating red LED flash.
NOTICE
Actual height may vary slightly due to facility conditions.
NOTICE
Height Warning activation height is less accurate when the Height Sensor is
used unpaired.
Height Warning will automatically deactivate when the climber descends below
