This guide provides detailed information about the Mother Transmitter. It provides
detailed instructions about using the component as well as specific requirements.
The CA9450 Security System monitors doors, elevators, hallways, and stairwells,
preventing the unauthorized exit of infants, children, or residents from a facility. The
Mother/Baby Match system also identifies when a mother is given an whether or not it is her
baby.
A small Transmitter is placed on the ankle or the wrist of a child or resident. A small
Mother Transmitter is also placed on the mother’s wrist. After the two transmitters have been
linked, each time the baby is given to the mother, the Green LED on the Mother Transmitter
indicates that it is the correct baby.
If an Infant transmitter is detected in an Exit Alarm Zone, for example if a child is
being abducted, an alarm sounds at the exit as well as at a Central Server and its network of
Clients. The Central Server and Clients also identify which child or resident sounded the
alarm and the exit where the alarm occurred. The system can automatically lock doors,
deactivate elevators, and activate remote cameras. The CA9450 System provides further
security by alerting staff if a transmitter band is tampered with, or if any wire in the system is
cut or damaged.
About this Guide
The Mother Transmitter User Guide is intended for users who fasten, clean, and care for
Mother Transmitters. It includes detailed information about the Mother Transmitters and

Testing a Mother Transmitter
The Safe Place® System includes a Transmitter Tester to be used when checking the
operation of each Mother Transmitter. If the Mother Transmitter is operating properly, the
Transmitter Tester will detect its signal, the indicator light will flash, and a tone will sound.
To test a Mother Transmitter
Place the Transmitter Tester directly on the Mother Transmitter.
Press and hold the button on the left side of the Transmitter Tester. The
device will beep once when you press the button.
If the Mother Transmitter is working properly, the indicator light flashes
and a tone sounds once every 15 seconds. Wait for the flash of the
indicator light and the tone from the Transmitter Tester to verify that the
Mother Transmitter is functioning.
If the Mother Transmitter fails this test, check the battery in the device.
The Transmitter Tester requires a 9V battery.
Retest the Mother Transmitter. If it fails a second time, replace the
Transmitter.

The transmitters may be sprayed or rinsed during cleaning, but are not
intended to soak for an extended period of time.
Introduction
The CA9450 System monitors doors, elevators, hallways, and stairwells, preventing
the unauthorized exit of patients from a facility. A small Transmitter is placed on the ankle
or the wrist of a patient. If a transmitter is detected in an Exit Alarm Zone, for example if a
child is being abducted, an alarm sounds at the exit as well as at a Central Server and its
network of Clients. The Central Server and Clients also identify which patient sounded the
alarm and the exit where the alarm occurred. The system can automatically lock doors,
deactivate elevators, and activate remote cameras. The CA9450 System provides further
security by alerting staff if a transmitter band is tampered with, or if any wire in the system
is cut or damaged.
In addition, a small Transmitter is placed on the arm of a new mother. If when the
baby is in contact with the mother, the Transmitter flashes Green LED to indicate that the
baby is the correct baby for that mother. If there is a mismatch, meaning, the infant and
mother transmitters do not match; the Mother Transmitter flashes the Red LED three times
and sounds a beep three times.
The Central Server and Clients also identify which child sounded the alarm and the
exit where the alarm occurred. The Safe Place® System provides further security by alerting
staff if an Infant Transmitter’s special, alarming band is tampered with or cut.
The Mother Transmitter
The Safe Place® Mother Transmitter is lightweight and compact. It has a 1 year life
expectancy.

Fastening a Mother Transmitter
A Mother Transmitter is a small, yellow device placed on the wrist of a new mother.
When it is activated, it sends a signal that is received by Exit Alarm Receivers and Alarming
Band Receivers. If a mother is handed a child wearing a transmitter that does not match her
transmitter, the Red LED on the Mother Transmitter flashes and an alarm sounds to signify a
mismatch.
Cleaning and Caring for a Mother Transmitter
This chapter provides detailed information about cleaning and caring for a Mother
Transmitter.
To clean a Mother Transmitter after use
Test all transmitters prior to use to verify proper operation.
Remove the alarming band from the Transmitter and dispose of the alarming
band material.
In order to avoid nuisance alarms, cleaning procedures should be
performed at least 100 feet from any Alarming Band Zone.
Transmitter on a Mother
Pre-clean the Mother Transmitter using an approved cleaner.
Use the provided brush to clean the hard-to-reach areas.
Brushes should be sanitized after each use according to the manufacturer’s
instructions and your facility’s infection control procedures.
Use of non-approved cleaners on Mother Transmitters may cause
permanent damage to the Transmitter and the alarming band piercing
contacts and will void any and all warranties.
Sanitize the Mother Transmitter by spraying it with an approved cleaner.
Using an approved cleaner does not confirm the suitability of the cleaner to
meet your infection control standard; it only indicates that the Mother
Transmitter will not be harmed by the cleaner.
To fasten a Mother Transmitter
Cut off 6-7" of alarming band material.
Open the clamps of the Mother Transmitter by gently pulling them outward,
one clamp at a time, from the top of the Transmitter.
Insert the alarming band material through the slot on one side of the Mother
Transmitter, from bottom to top, with the printed fabric side facing out. Guide
the alarming band material through the slot at the top of the clamp.
Snap the clamp into place.
Allow the cleaner to remain on the Mother Transmitter for the amount of time
specified by the manufacturer. When using surface disinfectants and
decontaminant cleaners, always follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

Replacing a Mother Transmitter Clamp
Place the Transmitter and alarming band onto the wrist of the mother.
Insert the alarming band material through the slot on the other side of the
Mother Transmitter, from bottom to top.
In some cases, it may be necessary to replace damaged Mother Transmitter clamps.
This done by opening the existing clamps, snapping them off of the Mother Transmitter,
and inserting new clamps.
Again, guide the alarming band material through the slot at the top of the
clamp.
Adjust the band so that the Mother Transmitter is in a comfortable position on
the mother’s wrist; the band should be snug enough to prevent the Transmitter
from slipping off, and loose enough to prevent discomfort.
Snap the clamp into place.
To replace a Mother Transmitter clamp
1 Open the clamps all the way and gently remove them from the transmitter.
Insert the first clamp into the Mother Transmitter by inserting the right
oval shaped pin into the hole on the right of the Mother transmitter.
