Abstract
A fall impact signal transmitter device is associated with a fall arrest harness to provide an alert signal when a user has experienced a fall event and is suspended in the fall arrest harness. A transmitter is disposed within a housing and is caused to issue an incident signal when actuated by an engagement member when a fall event occurs. The transmitter may be Bluetooth® enabled to permit an incident signal to be communicated by the user's own cell phone, or to permit two-way communication through the cell phone between the user and a called number.
