61.0 Introducing the MiCare Nurse Call and Emergency SystemThis chapter gives you a brief introduction to the MiCare Nurse Call and Emergency System, its application, and the types of devices that make up the Nurse Call and Emergency System.In this chapter you will find:•Overview of the MiCare Nurse Call and Emergency System•Contact Us
7Introducing the MiCare Nurse Call and Emergency System1.1 Overview of the MiCare Nurse Call and Emergency SystemThe MiCare Nurse Call and Emergency System from Mircom is an advanced nurse call solution that couples wireless mesh networking technology with ultrasonic signalling to accurately identify and respond to emergency events. To achieve this, the Nurse Call and Emergency System uses the highly reliable 802.15.4 wireless network. This network technology provides a self-forming, self-healing mesh type transport when routing messages to and from the Nurse Call and Emergency System Central server.There are three types of devices that make up the Nurse Call and Emergency System:•Coordinators: Coordinators connect to the Nurse Call and Emergency System Central server through a USB connection. They communicate on the 802.15.4 wireless network but are not programmed with the MiCare Nurse Call and Emergency System firmware. Their sole purpose is to transport messages back and forth between the Central server and the routers on the 802.15.4 wireless network. •Routers: Routers communicate with the Central server through the coordinators on the Nurse Call and Emergency System. They are programmed with the MiCare Nurse Call and Emergency System application firmware. Routers also listen for messages from end devices on the system, which they then pass on to the Central server. Finally, routers come with ultrasound transmitters that are used to locate portable MiCare end devices.•End Devices: End devices send messages about their status wirelessly to the 802.15.4 network. They do not communicate directly with the Central server. Their messages are instead passed on to the Central server through a router on the network. End devices are not programmed with the Nurse Call and Emergency System application firmware.Figure 1 shows a typical Nurse Call and Emergency System installation in a two-bed suite. This installation includes examples of both routers and end devices.Table 1 Devices in the Nurse Call and Emergency SystemDevice Type DescriptionNC-2100KCoordinator Bundle CoordinatorThe Coordinator Bundle passes messages between the routers and the Central server in the Nurse Call and Emergency System.NC-2000 Patient Unit RouterThe Patient Unit is ideally suited for patient rooms. Some of its features include inputs for 2 bed cords, two-way voice communication, an ultrasound transmitter, and outputs for 4-light dome lights, such as the NC-4LED corridor light.NC-210 and NC-211 Beacon RouterThe Beacon is used to extend the range of a Patient Unit or for use in areas where a Patient Unit is not required (for example, a hallway). It has an ultrasound transmitter for locating end devices.NC-103 Pull Station End DeviceThe Pull Station is a battery powered transmitter with a pull cord, 3 buttons, and an external input. These features make the Pull Station an ideal accessory to the Patient Unit, providing emergency call capability in areas where a Patient Unit is not required or feasible.

When an input becomes active the ZF3 sends the information wirelessly to the coordinator and the monitoring software.NC-500 Pendant End DeviceThe Pendant is a battery powered transmitter with one button. The Pendant is the only mobile device in the network and has an ultrasonic receiver for locating purposes, in addition to ZigBee capabilities.Table 1 Devices in the Nurse Call and Emergency SystemDevice Type Description+NC-2000Patient UnitNC-220ZF3 NC-103Pull StationNC-210BeaconDome Lights
9Introducing the MiCare Nurse Call and Emergency SystemCoordinators are usually installed in a server room with the Central server.Each nurse station has a computer with a browser connected to the Dashboard application on the Central server. The Dashboard application shows alerts that are raised by MiCare devices and plays an audible indication to notify nurses of alerts. Speakers must be installed on all computers running Dashboard.This manual contains information on how to install the routers, end devices, and coordinators that make up the Nurse Call and Emergency System.For information on how to configure the Nurse Call and Emergency System, see LT-2075, the MiCare Nurse Call and Emergency System Administrator’s Guide.For information on how to use the Nurse Call and Emergency System, see LT-2076, the MiCare Nurse Call and Emergency System User Guide.1.2 Contact Us1.2.1 Canada and USAToll Free: 1-888-660-4655Local: 905-660-4655Fax: 905-660-41131.2.2 Websitehttp://www.mircom.comAttention: In order to comply with UL 2560, the audible signal at the computers must be at least 60 dBA at a distance of one meter.

21Installing the NC-2000 Patient Unit3.4 Dome Lights and Generic OutputsThe Patient Unit supports the following connections for outputs:•Dome lights: there are 4 powered outputs for an external 4-light dome light - see Figure 13. Mircom supplies the NC-4LED Corridor Light. Other dome lights are available through third party manufacturers.•Generic outputs: these are 4 generic dry-contact outputs to activate either normally open or normally closed external devices - see Figure 153.4.1 Connecting Third Party Dome LightsDome lights connect to terminal CN16, a 5-position screw down block. There are 4 live outputs and a common return for a 5-wire 4-light interface (see Figure 13). These relays are limited to 500 mA maximum each.Figure 13 Dome light connections on terminal CN16Wire dome lights by connecting each light to its active output and to the common return.Note: The outputs for the dome lights on CN16 are tied to the generic outputs on CN13. If, for example, you activate output 1, output 1 on CN13 and output 1 on CN16 both become active. For information on how to activate outputs, see the Rules chapter in LT-2075, the MiCare Nurse Call and Emergency System Administrator’s Guide.Note: Do not overtighten the screw terminals.iCOMLOWHIGHDome Light 4 Dome Light 3Dome Light 2Dome Light 1Common return for all dome lightsCN16CN13CN6CN2CN16i
22Installing the NC-2000 Patient Unit3.4.2 Connecting NC-4LEDThe NC-4LED corridor light has six wires.Note: Third part dome light manufacturers may use low current LEDs or higher current incandescent lamps. LED dome lights typically range from 5 to 50 mA each, and incandescent lamps typically range from 50 to 250 mA each. The dome light relays (CN16) supply up to 500 mA each. Ensure that the dome lights do not exceed 500 mA each (total of 2.0 A for 4 dome lights).When calculating the power supply requirements for the Patient Unit, you must include the power requirements for the dome lights.For example, with four 24 V incandescent light bulbs at 250 mA each, the following input currents are drawn by the Patient Unit (at 24 VDC output):• Patient Unit maximum current: 25 mA• 4 dome lights on: 1000 mAIn this example, use a power supply rated at 1.25 A or more.See section 3.8, Power, on page 27 for more information on power connections.Table 3 NC-4LEDColor Label Connect toRed R Output 4 on CN16Green G Output 3 on CN16Amber A Output 2 on CN16White W Output 1 on CN16Brown V/G Common return of dome lightsBlue L.F.

27Installing the NC-2000 Patient Unit3.7 Secondary Ultrasound TransmitterTerminal CN14 is used to connect the Patient Unit to a secondary ultrasound transmitter (see Figure 20). The second driver transmitter will have the same ID as the Patient Unit and it can be placed in a separate location from the Patient Unit.Figure 20 External ultrasonic emitter terminal CN143.8 PowerThe Patient Unit requires 24VDC for power. The maximum input current for the Patient Unit is 2.025 A, of which the dome lights are the major contributor. When you are calculating the power supply current requirements for the Patient Unit, you must add the following together:1. Patient Unit maximum current: 25 mA2. The maximum current for your dome lights (check with dome light manufacturer). The dome light relays are limited to 2.0 A maximum (4 relays x 500 mA per relay).The sum of 1 and 2 must not exceed 2.025 A and must be less than the maximum current output of your power supply.Note: Do not overtighten the screw terminals.Notes: When using the RB-MD-990 power supply to power more than one device, calculate the total amount of current required for all devices connected—Patient Units along with their dome lights—so as not to exceed the power output of the power supply or the power ratings for any connectors.COMLOWCN14Ultrasonic Drive +Ultrasonic Drive -ii

Attach the wires from your power supply to CN11.The inputs are polarity independent. There should be no exposed wire present. The screws must be set securely enough so that the wires cannot come loose.2. If there are jumpers on J3 or J4, remove them.Attention: In order to comply with UL 2560, you must do the following:• Connect all Class 2 power supplies for the Patient Units to a power-limited uninterruptible power source (UPS) for back up power.• Refer to Appendix 2: UL 2560 Requirements for UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) for more information about the UPS.Note: Do not overtighten the screw terminals.!J3 and J4OpenPower Terminal CN11 (24VDC) J3J4COMLOWHIGHCN16CN13CN6CN2CN1CN2CN8i
29Installing the NC-2000 Patient Unit3.8.2 Optional BatteryA rechargeable nickel-cadmium battery (part number NC-PBAT) can be purchased from Mircom to provide standalone power for the Patient Unit. The battery connects to the battery terminal CN8 (see Figure 22). To secure the battery, loop a cable tie through the two holes in the circuit board and then tighten it around the battery.Figure 22 Battery terminal CN83.9 Mounting the Patient UnitThe Patient Unit mounts on the supplied mounting plate, which attaches to a standard 3 gang PVC box. Note that the Patient Unit is not intended to be used in an Oxygen-Enriched Environment.Note: Do not overtighten the screw terminals.Attention: The battery alone does not meet the requirements for UL 2560 because it does not power the dome lights. In order to comply with these standards, connect the Class 2 power source for the Patient Unit to a power-limited uninterruptible power source (UPS).Note: Prior to mounting the Patient Unit, record its MAC address and location (building, wing, floor, and room). This information is needed to add the Patient Unit to the MiCare Central server.

Nature of Warnings. The within warnings are communicated to the reader out of an abundance of caution and create no legal obligation for Mircom Group of Companies, whatsoever. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this document shall NOT be construed as in any way altering the rights and obligations of the parties, governed by the legal documents that apply in any given circumstance.2. Application. The warnings contained in this document apply to all Mircom System and shall be read in conjunction with:a. the product manual for the specific Mircom System that applies in given circumstances;b. legal documents that apply to the purchase and sale of a Mircom System, which may include the company’s standard terms and conditions and warranty statements; c. other information about the Mircom System or the parties’ rights and obligations as may be application to a given circumstance. 3. Security and Insurance. Regardless of its capabilities, no Mircom System is a substitute for property or life insurance. Nor is the system a substitute for property owners, renters, or other occupants to act prudently to prevent or minimize the harmful effects of an emergency situation. Building automation systems produced by the Mircom Group of Companies are not to be used as a fire, alarm, or life-safety system.NOTE TO INSTALLERS:All Mircom Systems have been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. However, there are circumstances where they may not provide protection. Some reasons for system failure include the following. As the only individual in contact with system users, please bring each item in this warning to the attention of the users of this Mircom System. Failure to properly inform system end-users of the circumstances in which the system might fail may result in over-reliance upon the system. As a result, it is imperative that you properly inform each customer for whom you install the system of the possible forms of failure:4. Inadequate Installation. All Mircom Systems must be installed in accordance with all the applicable codes and standards in order to provide adequate protection. National standards require an inspection and approval to be conducted by the local authority having jurisdiction following the initial installation of the system and following any changes to the system. Such inspections ensure installation has been carried out properly.5. Inadequate Testing. Most problems that would prevent an alarm a Mircom System from operating as intended can be discovered by regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should be tested by the local authority having jurisdiction immediately after a fire, storm, earthquake, accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside the premises.
62Warranty and Warning InformationThe testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devices and any other operational devices that are part of the system.NOTE TO USERS:All Mircom Systems have been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. However, there are circumstances where they may not provide protection. Some reasons for system failure include the following. The end user can minimize the occurrence of any of the following by proper training, testing and maintenance of the Mircom Systems: 6. Inadequate Testing and Maintenance. It is imperative that the systems be periodically tested and subjected to preventative maintenance. Best practices and local authority having jurisdiction determine the frequency and type of testing that is required at a minimum. Mircom System may not function properly, and the occurrence of other system failures identified below may not be minimized, if the periodic testing and maintenance of Mircom Systems is not completed with diligence and as required. 7. Improper Operation. It is important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the alarm system and that they know how to respond when the system indicates an alarm. A Mircom System may not function as intended during an emergency situation where the user is unable to operate a panic or emergency switch by reason of permanent or temporary physical disability, inability to reach the device in time, unfamiliarity with the correct operation, or related circumstances.8. Insufficient Time. There may be circumstances when a Mircom System will operate as intended, yet the occupants will not be protected from the emergency due to their inability to respond to the warnings in a timely manner. If the system is monitored, the response may not occur in time enough to protect the occupants or their belongings.9. Carelessness or Safety Hazards. Moreover, smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits or children playing with matches or arson.10. Power Failure. Some Mircom System components require adequate electrical power supply to operate. Examples include: smoke detectors, beacons, HVAC, and lighting controllers. If a device operates only by AC power, any interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does not have power. Power interruptions of any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage Mircom Systems or other electronic equipment. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure that the system operates as intended.11. Battery Failure. If the Mircom System or any device connected to the system operates from batteries it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be fully charged, in good condition, and installed correctly. Some Mircom Systems use replaceable batteries, which have a limited life-span. The expected battery life is variable and in part dependent on the device environment, usage and type. Ambient conditions such as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large temperature fluctuations may reduce the expected battery life. Moreover, some Mircom Systems do not have a battery monitor that would alert the user in the event that the battery is nearing its end of life. Regular testing and replacements are vital for ensuring that the batteries function as expected, whether or not a device has a low-battery monitor.12. Physical Obstructions. Motion sensors that are part of a Mircom System must be kept clear of any obstacles which impede the sensors’ ability to detect movement. Signals being communicated by a Mircom System may not reach the receiver if an item (such as metal, water, or concrete) is placed on or near the radio path. Deliberate jamming or other inadvertent radio signal interference can also negatively affect system operation.
63Warranty and Warning Information13. Wireless Devices Placement Proximity. Moreover all wireless devices must be a minimum and maximum distance away from large metal objects, such as refrigerators. You are required to consult the specific Mircom System manual and application guide for any maximum distances required between devices and suggested placement of wireless devices for optimal functioning. 14. Failure to Trigger Sensors. Moreover, Mircom Systems may fail to operate as intended if motion, heat, or smoke sensors are not triggered. a. Sensors in a fire system may fail to be triggered when the fire is in a chimney, walls, roof, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke and heat detectors may not detect smoke or heat from fires on another level of the residence or building. In this situation the control panel may not alert occupants of a fire. b. Sensors in a nurse call system may fail to be triggered when movement is occurring outside of the motion sensors’ range. For example, if movement is occurring on the other side of closed doors or on another level of the residence or building the motion detector may not be triggered. In this situation the central controller may not register an alarm signal.15. Interference with Audible Notification Appliances. Audible notification appliances may be interfered with by other noise sources such as stereos, radios, televisions, air conditioners, appliances, or passing traffic. Audible notification appliances, however loud, may not be heard by a hearing-impaired person.16. Other Impairments. Alarm notification appliances such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn or waken a sleeping occupant if there is an intervening wall or door. It is less likely that the occupants will be alerted or awakened when notification appliances are located on a different level of the residence or premise.17. Software Malfunction. Most Mircom Systems contain software. No warranties are provided as to the software components of any products or stand-alone software products within a Mircom System. For a full statement of the warranties and exclusions and limitations of liability please refer to the company’s standard Terms and Conditions and Warranties. 18. Telephone Lines Malfunction. Telephone service can cause system failure where telephone lines are relied upon by a Mircom System. Alarms and information coming from a Mircom System may not be transmitted if a phone line is out of service or busy for a certain period of time. Alarms and information may not be transmitted where telephone lines have been compromised by criminal tampering, local construction, storms or earthquakes.19. Component Failure. Although every effort has been made to make this Mircom System as reliable as possible, the system may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a component.20. Integrated Products. Mircom System might not function as intended if it is connected to a non-Mircom product or to a Mircom product that is deemed non-compatible with a particular Mircom System. A list of compatible products can be requested and obtained.WarrantyPurchase of all Mircom products is governed by:https://www.mircom.com/product-warrantyhttps://www.mircom.com/purchase-terms-and-conditionshttps://www.mircom.com/software-license-terms-and-conditions
