In this article we will learn how enable and disable fall detection on LoRa firmware version 1.0.7 and higher.

First, access the menu by pressing the button at the bottom of the screen 5 times. Press the lower, red side button twice to navigate down the menu options until the fall detection setting is selected. Press the screen button to toggle fall detection off or on. 

"Falls: Alert" means fall detection is turned on - "Falls: Ignore" indicates that fall detection is turned off.

When fall detection is turned on, there will be an icon that resembles a person falling on the home screen:

Fall detection will trigger when the device detects a fall (acceleration then a quick stop). The screen will ask the user if they are ok. The user can press any button 3 times to cancel the fall detection alert from sending. If no buttons are pressed after the 30 second timer counts down, an alert will initiate from the device.
