CONNECTING TO THE RESCUE GUARDIAN  

 

The Rescue Guardian is has two operational modes: Stand alone and wirelessly connected. 
The wireless mode is the preferred method as it allows the operator(s) easy access to collect 
date and manage the alarm settings and thresholds of the Rescue Guardian.  

 
Step 1 

Ensure all batteries and the mobile device are charged. See CHARGING PROCEDURES for 
detailed instructions. 

 
Step 2 

Once the batteries are fully charged, take the provided Battery Compartment Tool 5mm hex 
key tool and remove the Battery Lid.  
 

Step 3 

Insert two (2) fully charged batteries on the yellow ribbon in the battery compartment, while 
carefully observing polarity by lining up the button top with the positive terminal in the 
battery compartment.  The batteries should be inserted on top of the yellow ribbon to allow 
for easy battery removal.  Tuck the excess ribbon back in between the batteries to avoid 
interference with the sealing gasket of the battery lid. 
 

Step 4 

Re-install battery lid using the battery compartment tool.   

CAUTION

: DO NOT over-tighten the screw as it could cause damage to the threads. 

 

Step 5 

Press and hold both buttons on the front of the RESCUE GUARDIAN for 3 seconds until the 
display lights up and the multifunction LED turns blue, indicating the RESCUE GUARDIAN is 
initializing and powering up. The RESCUE GUARDIAN can take up to 20 seconds to complete 
the initial boot sequence.  
 

Step 6 

Open the Rescue Guardian application on a mobile device by clicking on the Paratech icon. 
The main dashboard will open in the 

Scanned

 screen. It will show all powered up Rescue 

Guardian units within range and available for pairing.  Click on the tile that contains the serial 
number of Rescue Guardian you wish to pair.
