My Mom takes her pills 2 times per day. I set alarm1 and alarm2 and silenced 3 &amp; 4. How to I completely turn off alarm 3 and 4?

From reading the instructions, you have to set all the alarms at once, so you'll need to go through the alarm setup from the beginning. Press button 1 and then release. Set the time by using button 2 for hours and button 3 for minutes. When the time is right press button 1 again to save the alarm. It then advances to alarm 2 and you set it the same way. When you get to alarm 3, press button 2 until the display says --:-- which occurs after 11pm. It says to end by pressing button 1 until the alarm symbol stops blinking.

It took us a few months to realize that it will turn off sooner. Here's how to make the alarm go off. Make sure that the white plastic thing inside is pushed up as it says. Then you put the top back on. Slide the white door down to the pill compartment. When the alarm sounds it should go off when you open the door to take out the pills. Make sure that you close the door again after you take your pills out. I hope I explained it right. Good luck.

If you just want to turn the alarm off when it alarms. Push the button that you used to set the alarm time. If you want the alarm off completely, Push the alarm set button until the little alarm clock in the left hand corner no longer shows up.

I'm a light sleeper and it's next to my bed so I hear it. I usually leave it set on the ring....it runs through a set of "chimes" three times before it stops...makes a nice alarm clock as well as reminder to take your pills.

There doesn't seem to be a way to do that the way other alarms do. I press the alarm button to turn it off, then just turn it right back on again. And that resets it for the next day. And then I can not turn it on for the weekend. Maybe in a fancier version there is more programming capability?

Hi I don't think so. I have this alarm also and I do not know any way to mute the alarm. Thanks for asking Frank

There are 4 sections to the item. My wife takes pills 3 times a day and it works out well. The only problem with this device is the alarm sound isn't very loud and almost impossible to hear it when in a purse. I solved the problem by setting my smartphone to the times for pill taking.

I'd ask the manufacturer - but could set one alarm to respond after 6 rings, another at 7 and the 3rd to 8. Then once the first responds, go into the menu and turn change the response number of rings to 9; then repeat with the second unit and so on. This would be time consuming and would require multiple calls and adjustments.

The best I can explain it to you is that after you set alarm times 1 and 2, be sure to press button #1 again to set your alarm time (for each time) you set the alarm. Go on to #3, make sure you cancel out #3 alarm time, by pressing button number 2 until you get this display( --:-- ) this display will accour after 11:oo pm or 23:00 hours if you are using the 24 hour format. Let me know if this helped you at all. Tom

Forgot - you turn the alarms on or off by pressing the "F" buttons with a momentary press while the radio is OFF. I think I covered it. I hope.

Yes, there are two alarms; you can set them any way you like--weekday, weekend, daily, once.

According to the paper that came with it, you press either the sounds or the volume key to stop the alarm,. I tried it, but it doesn't work very well. The tune usually doesn't last very long, but there is one tune that goes on and on.

I had it set incorrectly the first night and the alarm sounded at 5:30am (sigh)... it's the third setting, not the forth. :-)

I gave the organizer to my parents as a gift. Before I sent it to them I took a look. I may be mistaken but I am pretty sure that there is no provision to prevent a patient from taking more than one days worth of medication at one time. Th organizer is a series of normal everyday pill boxes with a green end (Not yet taken) and a red end (Taken). you organize the pills for each day (morning, noon,& evening). Before the pills are taken the green end shows. once you take the pills flip the box over and the red end shows that the pills have been taken. I hope this helps. My sister in law organizes the pills for both Mom & Dad for the whole month, sets the reminder alarm and then it is up to them. She and my brother check in on them every so often & check the organizer as well. From what I understand It is working for them reasonably well.

There is a button on the unit to silence the alarm but it only works if the alarm is going off. There is no setting or button to disable the alarm if that is what you were asking.

I bought two of these, one each for my dad (93) and my mother-in-law (85). The light and sound alarms go for about 30 minutes. They DO NOT go on indefinitely or until you dump the pills out, so if the user sleeps through the entire 30-minute alarm, he missed it. I feel the alarm should continue indefinitely until the pills are dumped. The manufacturer was probably concerned about battery life. Just make sure the unit is in an area frequented by the user (near the bed in the morning and the easy chair during the day). Good luck.

Look on the rear of the clock. There are 5 buttons; L-R MODE, LIGHT, SET & UP & DN ARROWS. Press MODE until the alarm time appears in the window. Press SET and set your wake-up time. When finished setting the Wake-up time and with the MODE still in SET, press the UP arrow until there are three vertical dots between the hour and minutes numbers. If you want to disable the alarm, press the DN arrow until only two dots are visible. I hope this helps.
