We have improved our FIND feature!

The following changes are effective on all BASE UNITS manufactured after September 1, 2004.

Customers who were monitoring several Wristags told us that when they used the FIND feature it was, at times, difficult to determine which tag was the one they were trying to FIND since all tags were beeping.  So we listened to what our customers said and provided an alternative.  BASE UNITS manufactured after September 1, 2004 now have a FIND ALERT feature added to their menu choices.  FIND ALERT allows you to set the BASE UNIT to alert ALL tags being monitored or just the tag you are FINDing.

If you have one of our newer units you can set FIND ALERT to your preference by following these simple steps.

  1. Turn on the BASE UNIT.

  2. Press the MENU button (the top button on the right-hand side of the BASE UNIT. The display should appear as in the photo below.

 

  1. Scroll up to the FIND ALERT option. The display should appear as in the photo below.

  1. Press the MENU / SELECT button again.  The display should appear as in the photo below.

  1. Choose, by scrolling, either ALERT ALL TAGS or ALERT ONE TAG.

  2. Press the MENU / SELECT button again to confirm you choice.  If you changed the ALERT to ALERT ONE TAG, then display will change and appear as in the photo below.

The BASE UNIT will then return to the MENU screen. The default setting is ALERT ALL TAGS.  When you make a change to the FIND ALERT feature the change remains even if you turn off the BASE UNIT.

How do I know if I have the FIND ALERT feature on my BASE UNIT?
Simply follow the above steps and see if the FIND ALERT option appears on the MENU screen.

What do I do if I want to add FIND ALERT to my BASE UNIT?
There is no way we can upgrade your unit over the Internet or by sending you an upgrade disk.  You need to return your BASE UNIT (and only the BASE UNIT) to us for the upgrade.  You will be responsible for paying shipping costs to BLUESPAN and we will pay shipping costs back to you.  You should use a shipment method that allows you to track your package (such as FedEx, UPS or by obtaining a tracking option at the US Postal Service).  You may want to insure your shipment as well.  (We recommend insurance for $100.00.)  Be sure you pack and pad your BASE UNIT well so it doesn't get damaged in shipping.  We will upgrade your BASE UNIT within one business day of receipt and will ship it back to you by FEDEX.

What are the shipping instructions I need to follow to upgrade by BASE UNIT?
You MUST ship your unit back to:
BLUESPAN
ATTN: BASE UNIT UPGRADE
2306 Masonwood Way
Round Rock, TEXAS  78681

You MUST include the following information:

  • Name
  • Shipping address for returning the unit to you. We CANNOT ship to PO Boxes
  • Telephone Number
  • Email address (we will send you an email confirming that we have received the Base Unit and will also let you know the FEDEX tracking number for the return shipment to you.)

Do I need to get this upgrade?
No.  This upgrade is optional and primarily affects units that are used for monitoring multiple Wristags. However, in this upgrade we also add some software enhancements that make your BASE UNIT operate slightly more efficiently.  You will not find any differences in range, battery life or other features by having this upgrade installed.

If you have further questions please feel free to call our customer service department at 888-8ionKids (888-846-6543).
