You have to know the model to determine what features yours has. You should have been given a booklet on your device which usually explains features. Additionally you should have been given an ID card which carries the make and model information so you can go to the manufacturer's web site and look up the features. My St. Jude's CRT-D has GPS and can even play Pandora, in stereo and a first alert siren to warn my wife when I am not following my treatment regimen

Your pacemaker card will have thee model on it.  it might be a name, might be a model number.  if you google the model number, it gives you the name.   Then, google to model to get the specifics about the alarm.

Mine beeps if anything is wrong, then it beeps 10 hours later in case you were asleep.

If I hear beeping, Im to call right away or head to the ER if its a weekend/holiday.

They gave me a demonstration at the first check up, so that I would recognize it, so far its just fine.  

I laughed cause it sounds like a microwave beep.  Id be looking for a cuppa tea!

A pacemaker completely solved my problem. In fact, it was implanted just 7 weeks ago and I ran a race today, placed first in my age group.
