Frequently asked questions
Is FIRST-M already programmed to call 911?
Yes. M1 is set to 911 by default. Lift the handset and press M1 to place the call through compatible active telephone service.
Can M1 be changed from 911?
Yes. All four memory buttons can store your chosen numbers. Follow the included instructions and make sure everyone using the phone understands the selected setup.
Does it automatically call when I lift the handset?
FIRST-M uses memory buttons: lift the handset and press the desired button. For automatic dialing when the handset is lifted, choose FIRST.
How does the emergency announcement work?
Follow the included instructions to record your message, including any useful location details. During an emergency call, press SEND to play the stored announcement. The current model instructions also describe automatic transmission after approximately 30 seconds if SEND is not pressed. Verify your recorded message according to the instructions.
What telephone service does FIRST-M need?
Use an active analog telephone line or a compatible analog telephone port. If your service uses a cable modem, fiber terminal, PBX or VoIP adapter, confirm analog-port compatibility and emergency-call routing with your provider.
Will it work during a power outage?
The phone itself is powered by the telephone line and does not need batteries or a separate electrical outlet. It can work during an outage only while the connected telephone service or analog port remains active. Cable, fiber, PBX and VoIP adapters may depend on electricity or backup power.
Does it require an app or monitoring subscription?
FIRST-M does not require an app or a Med-Pat monitoring subscription. Compatible active telephone service is still required, and your provider may charge for that service.
Optional programming is available from Med-Pat Solutions for an additional charge if you would like us to set your preferred contact numbers.
Connection and emergency-call routing depend on your telephone service and installation. Follow the included instructions and your provider's procedures to verify the completed setup.
