Setup with instructions Plugging into a landline jack and placing a phone in the cradle is straightforward, but getting full benefit — pairing with the CA360 base system and configuring remote receivers — requires following multi-device setup instructions. A family member or the user could accomplish this with the manual in under an hour, making guided setup appropriate.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · June 8, 2026

This transmitter monitors both a landline phone jack and a cradle where you rest a mobile phone, then flashes visual alerts whenever a call or text comes in — so someone who can't hear a ringing phone doesn't miss it. It's designed for people who are deaf or hard of hearing and need a visual or tactile substitute for auditory phone alerts. The unit works as a standalone alerting device but is also designed to integrate with Serene's CentralAlert CA360 system, triggering remote receivers (bed shakers, strobe lights) elsewhere in the home. It stores missed-call notification via flashing, so you'll know a call came in even if you were in another room. This is an add-on component — getting full whole-home alerting requires the CA360 base system and additional receivers, sold separately.

  • With a guide
    1. To integrate with the CentralAlert CA360 system, pair this transmitter with the base unit following the pairing instructions in the manual.
