Deafgard X is activated by System X Acoustic. When Deafgard X receives a signal from System X, the Deafgard X bedside unit will activate the high intensity strobe and connected vibrating pillow pad. A flashing strobe and LCD provide visual indication that the fire alarm is sounding, allowing the deaf or hard of hearing person to leave their room to a place of safety.
