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

We set three alarms. I do not remember needing to cancel or turn off the fourth one. It wasn't a concern and never came on. We are not using the unit at this time, but never had a problem with it.

I don't have it in front of me (its at my moms house) but I think I just progressed the time on each alarm and there was a spot where the time would vanish. (Probably just after 12;00 or 24:00)

By silencing the alarm you are in effect turning them off. The instructions walk you thru the process (holding certain buttons til dashes appear). You should get no movement or sound for those alarms(3 and 4). Hope this helped. It's been a life saver for me. Mom is fixated on her pills, and is always trying to get at them. As a matter of fact, I just ordered a second dispenser.

Check your instructions carefully, I had several trial and errors trying to figure this out, too. I believe you have to set 3 and 4 to 0:00 to stop them from coming on.

I don't have the book with me as it is at my mom's house. You can go out to you tube and there are videos to watch that will show you how to set the 2 alarms and turn off alarm 3 and 4. Hope this helps as this has been a lifesaver for us to show meds to be taken.

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

You do not need to use alarms 3 and 4 if you don't need to they are just an option. Activate the alarms as if you are going to set them and when you get to three and four. go until they are blank then they will not go off at all. Write back if you need more help

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.

Did you get a manual with your pill box? I think all you do is cancel alarms 3 & 4. You would set alarm 1 and 2 and then when it goes to alarm 3 you press button 2 until you see --:--. It should then go to alarm 4 and you would do the same. This way it just skips alarm 3 & 4. Hope this helps. I don't know about you but this pill box has been great for my mom and me! I had my husband drill little holes through the top to make it louder, too.

You can lock the keys. He will have to remember to unlock the keys in order to turn the alarm off. Unless you are setting it every day, I don't think this would be the solution for your medication reminder.

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.

There are 5 compartments that relate to the 5 times you can set to alarm. When you rotate the cover to remove the pills, the alarm is disabled for that time within a prior 15 minute span.

Put your finger on the screen and slide it until alarm off comes up. Like sliding from one picture to another.

You can set up to 4 pill dispense alarms a day. At every specified alarm the pill machine rotates the pill tray allowing access to the slot holding the next dose. The machine requires the use of the key to access the schedule settings as well as pill tray. I hope this helps answer your question.

The compartment rotates to the open spot on the wheel and stays available until the next alarm (how long depends on if you are dosing once, twice, or three or more times a day). Not getting up at the same time isn't the problem. If they don't hear the alarm they have to REMEMBER to look at the pill dispenser. My mom had Alzheimers so if she slept through the alarm she had no idea pills were waiting for her.

There is a switch on the side that has 3 positions: Off, Alert, Alarm. Just switch to off during the day.

If they forget to close the door, the alarm still sounds but the pills won't rotate. To turn the alert off you have to close, then open, then close the door again. But still, the pills will not rotate even after u do that.

You can set four different alarms for any time, they do not have to be in intervals. These alarms will go off at the same time every day. You can always change your alarm if your medication schedule is altered. Thank you for your interest!

Yes. If you only take one pill per day you can fill the box up with five days worth of pills and set your alarm.

There are three settings on the side: chime, off, and alarm in that order. We use the chime during the day in case our girls successfully open the door and the alarm at night. I usually manually switch it off when people come visit. Does that help?

Yes, you can set four different alarms. And they will stay set unless you need to change them.

I believe that may be complicated because there is a pre-alarm which occurs a few minutes before the actual alarm time. You would have to set something beyond 10 minutes and then ignore the pre-alarm. Perhaps someone else out there has figured a way to disarm the pre-alarm feature. This alarm works well, but I had to stop using it. It was so loud, my dog threated to leave home.

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

The alarm has to be reset each day. Press the alarm 1 button to set it on at night and again in the morning to turn off.
