System Overview
System Overview
The Code Alert 630 System has been designed
to assist in the area of Fall Alert. The control
unit, sensor pad and accessories function as a
stand-alone system or can be configured to
interface with the current Series Software. When
interfaced with the current Series Software, a Fall
alarm is activated in response to the applicable
event.
The CA630 can be supervised; a routine signal
is sent from the transceiver and if the signal is
not received by the system, a Device Fault event
is generated in the Event List at the Computer.
The default check-in time is 140 seconds.
WARNING: The CA630 System may not be suitable for patients who are
“AT HIGH RISK FOR FALL.” Other monitoring measures may also be
required. The CA630 System should not be a substitute for a routine visual
monitoring protocol by caregiving personnel.
