Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How do I get started?
A. Contact CAMtech Monitoring at 209-472-3700 or click the “Contact Us” tab. A CAMtech representative will provide assistance with implementing SOBERLINK in your program.
Q. How many tests should I set for the participant?
A. SOBERLINK suggests 2-3 tests, spanning throughout the day and taking into consideration any times that may be a trigger for the participant. Informing the client of their test times reduces anxiety and lowers the likelihood of missed tests.
Q. What happens if a positive test is received?
A. Upon a positive test, the client receives prompts for retesting in order to provide evaluative data. Contacts who are enrolled to receive Alerts on a positive test will be notified immediately upon the test being received, allowing for quick response and intervention.
Q. How accurate is SOBERLINK?
A. The devices use a medical grade fuel cell sensor made by Dart Sensors, Ltd. The detection range is from .000 to .400 BrAC with an accuracy of +/- .005%. The device will recognize when recalibration is due, at which time the unit can be sent to CAMtech Monitoring. The device is court-admissible and validated.
Q. What is the difference between SLBLUE and SL2?
A. The SL2 contains a cellular module that uses Verizon’s private network to transmit results securely from the Breathalyzer to the monitoring site, no other equipment needed. The SLBLUE sends test results with the help of an iPhone oriPad via the device’s cellular or Wi-Fi connection. Because of this versatility, the SLBLUE is ideal for the frequent traveler.
