Telstra Mobile connection  

Your pendant is relying on a connection to the Telstra or Optus 4GX, 4G or 3G (rollback) mobile network to 
perform all of its emergency text and call functions. It also uses GPS, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5 to perform its 
location functions. The Telstra Network gives the widest coverage across Australia, covers 99% of Australia’s 
population over 1.3 million square kilometres. 

Telstra Mobile SIM card activation  

We have installed a Telstra mobile nano SIM card in your pendant and activated it. Please refer to the enclosed 
packing slip for the details of your mobile alarm number and the programmed contact numbers the device will 
text and call. 

Yearly recharge of your SIM card

  

We have allocated the first 12 months of credit to your SIM card. You will need to renew after each 12 month 
period. You do not need to check your credit, we will contact you every 12 months with instructions on how to 
renew. 

Emergency usage policy & excessive use advice  

The Live Life alarm is designed to be used in an emergency and not as a communication device such as 
a mobile phone. Your device comes under our ‘Fair Use Policy’ which means it is to be used for help in 
emergency situations. We have allocated a fair and adequate amount of voice and data to your device based 
on average usage patterns. Voice and text usage for every device is monitored by Live Life Alarms. Customers 
using the device’s ‘Side talk button’ or the ‘Location text function’ heavily will be contacted to discuss usage 
options. We reserve the right to apply further charges for excess use or discuss the option to move the SIM 
card into your name if you wish to use the ‘Side talk button’ and ‘Location text function’ frequently. 

4GX Mobile Signal in your home and other locations  

Before we processed your order we did a check on the Telstra 4GX, 4G & 3G coverage map to ascertain if there 
was coverage at your nominated user address. Most of the time, checking the coverage map will be adequate 
to ascertain whether the mobile alarm will have a strong enough signal inside the home of the user however, 
some homes can fall within coverage black spots due to hills, buildings and other obstructions. This is a 
common characteristic of all mobile networks. Therefore, we cannot 100% guarantee your Telstra 4GX, 4G & 
3G signal will be strong enough at your location. If you have problems with the mobile alarm getting a strong 
enough signal inside your home, consider testing a Telstra connected mobile phone at that location to see 
if you can get at least 1-2 bars consistently. If after doing this it appears there is a weak signal or no signal, 
then an option may be to try a SIM card that relies on the Optus Mobile Network. If you experience signal 
problems, please contact us to discuss other SIM card options.
