Preface
Introduction
This guide provides detailed information about the hardware components
and devices of the Quick Response Premiere Wireless Call System. It
provides instructions about installation as well as specific requirements for
mounting components that make up the system. The Quick Response
Premiere Wireless Call System is to be professionally installed.
The system immediately notifies staff when a resident requires attention,
and provides details that are essential in responding quickly and
competently to a resident’s needs. The system offers a variety of devices,
each of which interfaces with the Central Server to ensure that when a
resident is in need, staff is alerted.
A Quick Response Premiere device may be worn by a resident; it could
be mounted to a wall where it is easy to access; it could even be used in
conjunction with other systems such as the Wanderer Monitoring System
(exit controllers and electromagnetic door locks).
Devices send data to the Central Server on a regular basis. When an
event occurs that warrants a response, staff is alerted by an audible alarm
from the Central Server, a message is displayed on-screen, and the
designated staff is summoned to respond to the situation. Staff can also
be notified of an event via pager or phone.

Central Server
The first step in the installation of the hardware components is to set up
the Central Server. The Central Server computer can be placed on a flat
surface, and the monitor may be mounted on a wall. Optional wall
mounting kits are available from RF Technologies (PN 0120-0097 and
0120-0098). These mounting kits comply with VESA mounting standards.
Please follow the manufacturer's instructions for mounting the monitor.
WARNING: When installing the Central Server, proper
placement/mounting of the server is important. Adequate precautions
must be taken to prevent the server from falling, causing injury to persons.
Cables must be routed in a way to prevent tripping hazards.
Any rack mounted Central Server must be installed in a controlled
environment that maintains temperature between 50°F and 95°F and
humidity between 20% and 50%.
1. Check to see that you have all the required equipment for setting up
the Central Server:

Chapter 1 – Installing Hardware Components
NOTE: The RF lights do not flash on the Router or Gateway in response
to end device activity.
To install the Gateway directly to the Server computer:
1. Locate a mounting site for the Gateway that is within a 12-foot reach
of the Central Server. To minimize noise interference, the Gateway
should be a minimum of 10-feet away from the paging base or any
high powered electrical device.
2. Placement of the Gateway should not be located over a stud. The
Gateway should be at a one-foot distance from the bottom of the
enclosure to the ceiling.
NOTE: The Gateway must be mounted as high as possible from the
ground and situated where reception to affiliated Routers is not impaired.
3. Using the rear plate of the Gateway as a template, place it level
against the wall and mark the location of the two mounting holes.
4. Center punch each hole and insert two nylon wall anchors (included).
5. Make certain that the RS232/Power Cable is plugged into the
Gateway and that the ON/Off switch is in the ON position. After the
ON/Off switch is turned to the ON position, the LED’s at the bottom of
the device should flicker. If they do not flicker then turn the switch to
the OFF position and then turn it back ON.
6. Place the rear plate of the Gateway into the recess on the back of the
Gateway enclosure.
7. Make sure the antenna is screwed on, then with the antenna pointing
upwards, place the Gateway over the wall anchors in alignment with
the holes in the enclosure and insert two screws (included).
8. If preferred, mount the raceway for containing and concealing the
wires leading from the underside of the Gateway down to the Central
Server.
9. Connect the 9-Pin serial connector from the Gateway to the serial port
on the Central Server.
10. Plug the power supply into a standard outlet. Using an uninterruptable
power supply (UPS) is recommended.

To install the Gateway in or near a wiring closet:
1. Locate a mounting site for the Gateway within the wiring closet.
Placement of the Gateway should not be located over a stud. The
Gateway should be at a one-foot distance from the bottom of the
enclosure to the ceiling.
NOTE: In some circumstances where RF performance is impaired by a
shielded wiring closets or the location of the covered area is at a
significant distance from the wiring closet, the Gateway can be located
outside the wiring closet by making use of the provided 50 foot
RS232/Power Cable.
2. Using the rear plate of the Gateway as a template, place it level
against the wall and mark the location of the two mounting holes.
3. Center punch each hole and insert two nylon wall anchors (included).
4. Make certain that the RS232/Power Cable is plugged into the
Gateway and that the ON/OFF switch is in the ON position. After the
ON/Off switch is turned to the ON position, the LED’s at the bottom of
the device should flicker. If they do not flicker then turn the switch to
the OFF position and then turn it back ON.
5. Depending on which serial port server you use, do one of the
following:
 When using a 4-port serial port server (PN 9450-0910) with cable
(PN 0460-0101), connect the RJ45 connector from the Gateway
to the top side of the serial port server. The serial port server is
located within the black box mounting assembly.

When using a single serial port server (PN 9600-0002) with cable
(PN 0460-0124), connect the 9-Pin connector from the Gateway
to the single serial port server. Run Cat-5 wiring using standard
568B and terminate each end with a RJ45 connector. Connect
one end to the Ethernet connector on the bottom of the single
serial port server and the other end to the Ethernet switch.
6. Now, either plug the serial port into the CPS observing the polarity of
the cable, red to (+ ) and black to ( - ) or plug the power supply into a
standard outlet. Using an uninterruptable power supply (UPS) is
recommended for standard output power.
7. Ensure that the wires are pulled through the wire tie wrap, secure
them tightly with the wire tie and cut off excess.
8. Place the rear plate of the Gateway into the recess on the back of the
Gateway enclosure.
9. Make sure the antenna is screwed on, then with the antenna pointing
upwards, place the Gateway over the wall anchors in alignment with
the holes in the enclosure and insert two screws (included). Verify
Gateway is firmly secured to the wall to prevent device from falling.
10. Using the software loaded on the Central Server select the COM port
assigned to the Gateway. Refer to the section “Poll Server Settings” in
the Software Administrative Guide.

Router
Routers receive signals from transceivers and re-transmit them to the
Gateway. There are two models of Routers, one with an internal antenna
and one with an external antenna for greater range. Routers can be
supervised; a routine signal is sent from each Router and if the signal is
not received by the system, a Device Fault event is generated in the
Event List at the computer.
Routers are powered by a plug-in power supply or central power supply. A
backup battery is also included in the Router enclosure. Routers can be
placed on either the wall or on the ceiling. If mounting to the ceiling, the
issue of bleeding through to the floor above must be considered. Other
factors that affect the placement of Routers are the availability of a power
source and sufficient coverage for the supervision of transceivers.
The Router has four (4) single-color LED lights; two green and two red.
For more information on LED lights and LED sequence refer to the LED
Sequence section
RF Fail-Good: The two sets of lights furthest from the Reset Button
indicate transceiver device communication status. These set of lights flash
briefly (once) every check-in (30 seconds by default), when a tamper
alarm is triggered or cleared, and when a data is forwarded.

Green indicates communication is good and data is forwarded
OK to the next Router.

Red indicates communication failure and data is NOT forwarded
to the next Router.
Serial Fail-Good: The two sets of lights closest to the Reset Button
indicate RS232 communication status with the Central Server. These set
of lights flash briefly (once) when data is transmitted via an external
RS232 device (i.e. Quick Look™) to the Central Server.

Chapter 1 – Installing Hardware Components
NOTE: A configuration map or floor plan of the facility is pre-determined
with most Quick Response Premiere Wireless Call Systems. Please rely
on the configuration map or floor plan in conjunction with the information
provided below to determine Router placement.
To determine placement of routers:
1. The first Router's location is in the proximity of the Gateway as
specified on the floor plan. Using a Pendant that is in Survey Mode,
walk a distance from the Gateway until the light on the Pendant starts
blinking red. This indicates that the Router is out of range of the
Gateway.
2. Walk back into range.
3. Mount Router within range of the Gateway and near a 110 VAC wall
outlet or at the termination point from the central power supply.
Repeat steps 1 and 2 to mount subsequent Routers.
NOTE: If using a 9V power supply, wiring from the power supply can
be routed inside the wall or (if preferred) mount the raceway for
containing and concealing the wires leading from the underside of the
Router down to the 110 VAC wall outlet.
4. For wall placement, the Router should not be located over a stud and
should be at a distance of one foot from the bottom of the enclosure
to the ceiling.
5. For ceiling placement, the Router should mounted down the center of
the hallway or centered in a room. Its orientation can be parallel or
perpendicular to the walls of the hallway. For optimal location, mount
Router in the center of the ceiling tile.
6. Using the rear plate of the Router as a template, place it level against
the intended mounting surface and mark the location of the two
mounting holes. If the wiring from the wall outlet power supply or
central power supply exits from the intended mounting surface then
locate the lower right corner of the rear plate (corner is cut out) over
the exit hole.
7. Center punch each hole and drill in two nylon wall anchors (included).
If the Router is located on a concrete mounting surface then you must
use the wall anchors designed for use with concrete (not included). If
the Router is to be installed on drop ceiling tiles use the threaded
drywall anchor taking care to not damage ceiling tile during installation
process.
8. Once the wiring has been run to the location of the Router attach the
power supply wires to the terminal block in the corner of the Router. If
using a central power supply up to seven (7) Routers may be daisy
chained by terminating the next Router to the second terminal block.
The minimum field wire size to be employed shall be 18 AWG (0.36
mm2).
9. Insure that the wires are pulled tight through the wire tie wrap and cut
excess.
10. Make certain that the Router's ON/Off switch is in the ON position.
After the ON/Off switch is turned to the ON position, the LED’s at the
bottom of the device should flicker. If they do not flicker then turn the
switch to the OFF position and then turn it back ON.
11. Place the rear plate of the Router into the recess on the back of the
Router enclosure.
Quick Response Premiere Hardware Installation Guide
0510-1099-I
Page 19 of 77
Chapter 1 – Installing Hardware Components
12. Place the Router over the wall anchors in alignment with the holes in
the enclosure and insert two screws (included). Verify Router is firmly
secured to the intended mounting surface to prevent the device from
falling.
13. For extended range Routers make certain that the external antenna
points over the top edge of the enclosure. Any other orientation will
reduce device performance.
14. If raceway is being used now is the time to apply it.
15. If the power is supplied by a wall outlet power supply, then plug in the
power supply.
16. If the power supply has a mounting tab, secure it to the outlet using
the screw provided.
17. Repeat the above steps for the remaining Routers.
NOTE: When configuring a multi-story facility the Routers should be
placed directly above one another as much as possible to provide
accurate location even in non-location required facilities.
To test the Routers:
1. For each router use a pendant that is in Survey Mode to test
reception. Walk to the far reaches of adjacent rooms and covered
area to ensure that acceptable coverage is achieved.
2. For Quick Look displays, verify location data and alarm information
appears on the display when an alarm is generated.
Quick Look
A Quick Response Premiere Router can be connected to a wireless Quick
Look Display or High Visibility Display so that when an alarm is sent from
the Server to the Router, the wireless display shows the type of alarm,
location data and transceiver number. As new alarms occur, they appear
immediately; the display then begins scrolling through each active alarm.
The Quick Look Display also acts as an integral part of the back-up
reflector mode. This reflector mode functionally allows the Quick
Response Premiere network to take over the responsibility of distributing
alarm information (transceiver number only) to the Quick Look Display in
the event of an inoperable Server. In reflector mode it will display device
names and the nearest Router that received the alarm.
Quick Looks are supervised; a routine signal is sent from each Quick Look
Display and if the signal is not received by the system, a Device Fault
event is generated in the Event List at the computer.
WARNING: Quick Look Displays should not be added to multiple units.
Since Routers are used to determine location, inaccurate location data
could result.
The location data displayed depends on the configuration. If a
Gateway/Router is assigned to a room, the Quick Look displays the room
and unit data. If the Router/Gateway is assigned only to a unit and not
individual rooms, the nearest location data is displayed.

32 Channel
Controller
The 32 Channel Controller consists of a Quick Response Premiere
Router, a 32 Channel Controller relay board and up to 16 bi-color Dome
Lights.
The 32 Channel Controllers are supervised; a routine signal is sent from
each Quick Response Premiere Router and if the signal is not received by
the system, a Device Fault event is generated in the Event List at the
computer.
Central Power Supply (CPS)
The Central Power Supply is used to connect the 32 Channel Controller
and Dome Lights to a single power source. The Central Power Supply
eliminates the need to run 120VAC to each detection zone. Note that the
Router is powered by the 32 Channel Controller.
Refer to the Class II Central Power Supply Installation Guide (0510-1036)
for detailed information on installing the Central Power Supply.
WARNING: It is crucial that the following steps be carried out in the order
listed. If the 32 Channel Controller is not powered and connected properly

6. Route the Router to the 32 Channel Controller Cable Harness from
inside the 32 Channel Controller to just outside the enclosure.
7. Connect the Router cable harness. At this point do not power up
Router and allow it hang free. It will be mounted to the wall following
system power up.
Dome Lights
Dome Lights are mounted in the corridor above or beside the door of an
associated room. The red light should be mounted up. Location should
provide for unobstructed visibility of the Dome Light in both directions.
Dome Lights can either be flush mounted or surface mounted based on
wall construction and wire routing. When flush mounting, the wiring can be
routed through a 3/4" hole in the wall. In this case the Dome Light will be
directly mounted to the wall.
Dome Light includes two indicator lights: a white indicator light for low
priority alarms and a red indicator light for high priority alarms.


Emergency Calls: Emergency calls are indicated by steady
illumination of the red Dome Light associated with the zone or area
from which an emergency call has been placed.
Normal Calls: Normal calls are indicated by steady illumination of the
white Dome Light associated with the zone or area from which a
normal call has been placed.

To wire power to Dome Lights:
1. Run wiring conduit from Dome Light to Dome Light and terminate at
the Central Power Supply. The current requirement for the Dome
Light is 50mA. Each circuit should be limited to 8 or fewer Dome
Lights. Use 16 AWG 2-conductor cable to connect the Dome Light
power terminals to the Central Power Supply.
2. Terminate the wires per the Wiring Diagram.
To wire Dome Lights to the 32 Channel Controller:
1. Run a 22 AWG 4-conductor or 8-conductor cable to connect one of
the Dome Light circuit’s terminals to the 32 Channel Controller.
2. Connect one pair of the cable conductors from the Dome Light’s
C1(+) and C2 terminals to one of the 32 Channel Controller’s relay
output circuits.
 Circuits 01 and 02 have both Normally Open (NO) and Normally
Closed (NC) contacts
The N/C contacts are open during normal operation
The N/O contacts are closed during normal operation
NOTE: The N/O contacts are in the closed state so in the event a
wire is cut, it will act as supervision and illuminate the dome light.

Circuits 03 thru 32 have Normally Open (NO) contacts.
These circuits are closed during normal operation. In the
event of an alarm state, these circuits then change to the
open state.
NOTE: The contacts are in the closed state so in the event a wire is
cut, it will act as supervision and illuminate the dome light.
3. Repeat the above step for the second Dome Light circuit (C3 and C4)
using either another 4-conductor cable or the 3rd and 4th pairs of the
8-conductor cable, if used.
4. Use the tie wrap provided to wrap around the terminated wires and
tightly attach it to the holes in the 32 Channel Controller circuit board.

To test the 32 Channel Controller:
When an alarm is sent from the Server to the Router, the 32 Channel
Controller acts as a relay switch and turns on the Dome Light mounted
outside the patient’s room. Once the 32 Channel Controller /Dome Light
setup has been configured and wired properly, you must test its operation.
1. Position yourself where you can see the Dome Light.
2. Have someone activate a transceiver device.
3. If the 32 Channel Controller and Dome Light have been wired
correctly, the Dome Light will illuminate and an Alarm event will be
listed on the Event List at the Central Server.
4. Reset the transceiver device and follow step 1– 3 to test all 32
Channel Controller/Dome Light setups.
Channels
The Gateway and Router default to channel 25. In a facility with a single
Gateway, it is recommended to leave the Gateway and Routers on
channel 25.
In some instances, it may be necessary to install an additional Gateway to
support additional Routers. Once the first installation of Gateway/Routers
is complete and configured into the system, you must change the channel
before installing the second set.
Channel selection will be site specific and dependent on the sites
environmental issues. Environmental issues include WiFi, 2.4 cordless
phones, microwave ovens, and architecture (multiple Gateways). There
are 16 ZigBee channels in the 2.4 spectrums numbered 11 to 26 (1–9 are
in the 900MHz spectrum). Channel 26 is unusable as the power output is
limited to half of the other channels due to its proximity to the edge of the
2.4. spectrums, and is configured “off” in our systems.
NOTE: Channel 25 is the default for all our devices. The preferred
channels are 11, 15, 20, and 25.

Router Depth
Page 30 of 77
It is important to install Routers efficiently as to minimize the number of
hops to the Gateway while still providing coverage at the furthest point
from the Gateway. The Router Depth option allows you to adjust Router
Depth by staggering 5-second Router resets by one, two, three or four
minutes. Each Router has an association limit of 6 Routers; the hop limit
for each Router is 4.

If a Router/Gateway does not have child Routers (at the end of a
branch in the tree structure), a 5-second reset will cause the
Router/Gateway to leave the network, and then rejoin the network. On
the Router, this is indicated by observing the L2 flash off and back on
after 5-seconds.
A 10-second or 15-second reset will cause a Router/Gateway name
to revert to factory default; Rout-xxxx/Gatexxxx, where xxxx are the
last 4 characters of the Router/Gateway MAC ID.
The Router will scan all channels and will join the first channel that
replied with the highest RSSI (and stay on that channel indefinitely
unless another 15-second reset is done).

End Device
Failure
When a single, limited function end device (i.e. Pull Cord, Universal) fails,
the following procedure will remove it from the short address table and
allow replacement.
To replace a failed end device:
1. Unpower and physically remove the failed device.
2. Delete the device from the Configuration >>Devices window in the
software. This results in a broadcast command to the Gateway to
remove the MAC short address from the Router table it was joined to.
3. With the replacement device within range of the Router, remove the
battery tab to activate the device. The replacement device will
automatically search all channels to find a “full function” device to join.
4. Physically install the replacement device.
5. Alarm and then Reset the device. The system recognizes the device
when it goes into alarm and places it into the Device List for
configuration.
6. Configure the replacement device in the software using the same
device name as the failed device previously deleted.
7. If necessary, configure the replacement device into a Unit.
8. If necessary, configure the replacement device into a Room.
Cloning
In case the router or gateway is still operating but needs to be replaced
due to faulty RF communication, etc, follow the steps outlined in the Quick
Response Premiere Router/Coordinator Cloning Guide (P/N 0510-0401).
Router Failure
When a full function device (Router) fails, its limited function device (i.e.
Pull Cord, Universal) will fail to communicate and will automatically search
for another Router to associate with for a check-in or alarm.
To replace a failed Router (router has lost all ability to operate):
1. In the software application, click Report on the toolbar and open the
Device Tree Report.
2. Sort the Device Tree Report by Comport and print the report.
3. Find the Router and all of its dependent Routers and make a list of
these Routers (any Routers that contain the defective Router name in
their path).
4. Remove power from each Router noted in step 3.
 If AC power is provided by a CPS, turn the CPS output off at
this time (all Routers will report low battery in 5 minutes, but
that’s OK).

If AC power is provided by individual wall transformers,
unplug the wall transformer for each Router

Remove battery power (turn battery slide switch to off position)
for each Router
5. In the software, delete all of the Routers noted in step 3 (check delete
then click save).

now.

If AC power is provided by individual wall transformers, plug
in the wall transformer for this Router.
10. Perform a 15-second reset on this Router
11. Wait for a visual indication Router joined the network (dual green
blinks for several seconds).
12. Secure the Router to the wall.
13. Repeat steps 9-11 for all remaining Routers noted in step 3
NOTE: Remaining Routers must be done in the order of shortest path to
longest path based on the tree report from step 2
14. Verify each Router noted in step 3 now appears in the software.
15. If AC power is provided by a CPS, re-enable the CPS output
16. Wait up to the supervision time for a Router and verify none of the
Routers are reporting low battery.
17. Restore each end device from step 6.
 With battery still removed, press the tamper switch a few times
(ensures caps are discharged and device performs a proper
power-up reset).

Insert battery.

Verify device light indicator blinks green 3 times. After the ON/Off
switch is turned to the ON position, the LED’s at the bottom of
the device should flicker. If they do not flicker then turn the switch
to the OFF position and then turn it back ON.

Re-mount device.
18. Alarm and clear each end device and verify the PC reports each time
an alarm and clear is sent.
19. Open the Device Tree Report and verify that none of the Routers, or

Chapter 2 – Installing End Devices
Introduction
This chapter provides detailed information about installing end
(transceiver) devices and testing the operations of the Quick Response
Premiere Wireless Call System with supported devices.
End devices are devices that transmit and receive alarm data. The Quick
Response Premiere Wireless Call System includes end devices that are
carried by the patient and fixed devices (a stationary device that is
assigned to a room or a unit and is not transported with the patient but
stays in the room or unit to which they are assigned).
The Quick Response Premiere Wireless Call System end devices consist
of the following:

Pull Cord/Emergency Call Station

Pull Cord with Check-In Call Station

Push Button Emergency Call Station

Nurse Call Station

Universal Transceiver

Door/Window Transceiver

Pendant
NOTE: Pull Cords and Universal Transceivers check in every 20 minutes;
Pendants check-in every 100 seconds by default.
NOTE: Any transceiver devices that are to be assigned to a 32 Channel
Controller must be on the same PAN as the 32 Channel Controller.
Call Stations
Display
There are four models or Quick Response Premiere call stations:

Nurse Call

Push Button Emergency Call

Pull Cord

Pull Cord with Check-In
Call Stations have (2) LED lights that are visible from the front of the
device. The first LED light is red and is visible whenever there is a call for
assistance. When an alarm is initiated, the red LED will blink quickly.
When the alarm has been confirmed as received, the red LED will then
blink slower. If for some reason the alarm is not confirmed in 15 seconds
the red LED will stay on for 3 seconds and then shut off. At this point the
device will continue to try and contact the network.
Quick Response Premiere Hardware Installation Guide
0510-1099-I
Page 39 of 77
Chapter 2 – Installing End Devices
The second light is a green LED and is only activated by moving a jumper
(JP3) in place on the electronics inside the device. It is only recommended
that this be activated for service purposes only by trained service
personnel as its blinks are used for diagnostic purposes. When the jumper
is in place and the unit reinstalled in its original location the green light will
blink much fainter than the red alarm LED. The following is how the green
LED is coded:
Mounting

One green blink = message sent, but no acknowledgment was
received from Gateway

Two green blinks = all nearby Routers full

Three green blinks = checkin/alarm message was sent
successfully with an acknowledgment received from Gateway

Ten green blinks = device received new configuration data
To mount a call station:
1. The QR Premiere Call stations are surface mounted. A height of 48
inches is standard, however; mounting heights may vary. Before
mounting to the wall, pull the plastic battery tabs to activate the
battery pack.
2. Using the rear plate of the call station as a template, place it level
against the wall at the desired mounting height and mark the location
of the two mounting holes.
3. Center punch each hole and install two nylon wall anchors (included).
If the call station is located on a concrete wall then you must use the
wall anchors designed for use with concrete (not included).
4. Snap the front assembly over the rear plate and place a screw
(included) into the bottom of the assembly (as shown below) to
secure.
NOTE: For Pull Cords, determine the desired length of the red Pull Cord
string. The standard length of a Pull Cord strings is six feet long. However,
as mounting heights vary, the length of the string may need to be
adjusted.
To adjust the length of the Pull Cord string:
1. Gently pop the red alarm lever free from the enclosure and remove
the string.
2. Cut the string to the desired length and rewind it on the alarm lever in
the reverse order it was removed. There are instructions printed on
the side of the red alarm lever for assistance in winding the string.
3. Press the red alarm lever back onto the enclosure and route the pull
cord string through the small slit in the bottom corner of the enclosure.

Chapter 2 – Installing End Devices
NOTE: Prior to any Call Device setup, the devices must be assigned to a
unit. This is what allows the device to be seen in the Event List. Refer to
the Software Administrator Guide for additional information.
Add Retention
If excessive pulling on the nurse call cord results in the Nurse Call Jack
breaking free from the wall plate, the solution is to add retention to the
nurse call cord (0800-0554 Nurse call Cord Retention Hardware, 10
pack). This retention increases the strength that the enclosure can
withstand.
To add retention hardware to the nurse
call cord:
1. Remove the enclosure cover screw
on the bottom side of the Nurse Call
Jack device.
2. At approximately three inches from
the nurse call cord’s plug, slip the
white plastic cord clamp over the
cord.
3. Place the flat side of the cord clamp
up against the bottom side of the
Nurse Call Jack device with the hole
in the cord clamp in alignment with
the enclosure cover screw hole.
4. Replace the original screw that was just removed with the pan head
screw. Tighten in place.
Nurse Call
A Nurse Call station is affixed near the bed of the patient. An Assistance
Required alarm event is reported in the Event List when a patient pushes
the button on the Nurse Call cord. The Nurse Call station is supervised; a
routine check in message 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.
To setup a nurse call station for use:
1. Plug in the desired Nurse Call Cord set into the Nurse Call station.
2. Activate the Nurse Call by pressing the button on the cord set.
3. If the Nurse Call station is working properly, an Assistance Required
alarm event will be listed on the Event List at the Central Server. The
system senses the Nurse Call when it goes into alarm and adds it to
its list of devices.
4. For latching type cord sets reset the Nurse Call station by pulling the
button back to the UP position. Momentary type cord sets can be
reset by pressing the reset button on the side of the device. The alarm
event will automatically clear from the Event List at the Central Server.
If Enforce Joint Commission is enabled, you must clear the alarm at
the Central Server or Client computer by selecting a reason.
5. At the Central Server, update the Nurse Call station information, for
example, giving the Nurse Call a name and/or assigning it to a room
or unit. Refer to the “Update Devices” section in the applicable
Software Administrator Guide.

NOTE: To configure the nurse call for momentary or latching style call
cords, make sure the jumper JP2 is set to the following:
Push Button
Emergency Call

Momentary: MOM

Latching: LAT
A Push Button Emergency Call is mounted on the wall. This device is
used to request staff assistance and is commonly used in common areas
and lunch rooms.
An Assistance Required alarm event is reported in the Event List when a
patient pushes the red button. The Push Button Emergency Call is
supervised; a routine check in message is sent from the Push Button
Emergency Call and if the signal is not received by the system, a Device
Fault event is generated in the Event List at the computer.
To setup a push button call station for use:
1. Activate the Push Button Emergency Call station by pushing the red
button. When pushed, the button remains in a recessed position
indicating the device is in an alarm state.
2. If the Push Button Emergency Call station is working properly, an
Assistance Required alarm event will be listed on the Event List at the
Central Server. The system senses the Push Button Emergency Call
when it goes into alarm and adds it to its list of devices.
3. Reset the Push Button Emergency Call by pushing the red button
again, the button pops out indicating the transceiver has changes
states and is now idle and ready for its next usage.
4. The alarm event will automatically clear from the Event List at the
Central Server. If Enforce Joint Commission is enabled, you must
clear the alarm at the Central Server by selecting a reason.
5. At the Central Server, update the Push Button Emergency Call
information, for example, giving the Push Button Emergency Call a
name and/or assigning it to a room or unit. Refer to the “Update
Devices” section in the applicable Software Administrator Guide.
Pull Cord
A Pull Cord is mounted on the wall. This device is used to request staff
assistance and is commonly used in bedrooms and bathrooms. It is
suitable for use in close proximity to showers or baths; however to prevent
damage, avoid any submersion.
An Assistance Required alarm event is reported in the Event List when a
patient pulls a cord. The Pull Cord is supervised; a routine check in
message 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.
To setup a pull cord call station for use:
1. Activate the Pull Cord by pulling the cord.
2. If the transceiver is working properly, an Assistance Required alarm
event will be listed on the
3. Event List at the Central Server. The system senses the pull cord
station when it goes into alarm and adds it to its list of devices.

4. Reset the Pull Cord by rotating the red HELP lever back to the UP
position.
5. The alarm event will automatically clear from the Event List at the
Central Server. If Enforce Joint Commission is enabled, you must
clear the white alarm at the Central Server by selecting a reason.
6. At the Central Server, update the Pull Cord information, for example,
giving the Pull Cord a name and/or assigning it to a room or unit.
Refer to the “Update Devices” section in the applicable Software
Administrator Guide.
Pull Cord with
Check-In
A Pull Cord with Check In enables the staff or patient to push a green
button to check-in. Pressing the green button indicates to the system that
the patient has checked in or been visited by staff. The type of check-in
depends on how your Pull Cord with Check In is configured (refer to the
applicable Software Administrator Guide). For various types of check in
see below.
NOTE: Setup for the pull cord with check-in is the same as the pull cord
station listed above.
Check-in types

Patient Check In: A patient pushes the button to notify the staff
that he/she is awake and does not require assistance.

Staff Check In: A staff member pushes the check-in button
once they have checked on a patient.

Staff Care Complete: A staff member pushes the check-in
button in response to an Assistance Required alarm once the

batteries.
To replace the AA Batteries for the Call Stations:
1. Remove the Nurse Call transceiver from its mounted location by first
removing the screw on the bottom of the enclosure.
2. Rotate the enclosure upward and remove from wall. The four AA
batteries will be visible. There is no need to disassemble anything as
the batteries are removable as they are. Pull all four batteries free
from the battery holder.
NOTE: Do not use a metal screwdriver or metallic instrument to remove
the battery. This may damage the device.
3. Insert four new AA Lithium Ion batteries into the battery holder. Make
sure to pay attention to the polarity of the batteries within their holder.
4. Verify communication is resumed by alarming the Nurse Call
transceiver and observing the LED through the front of the Nurse Call
transceiver. It should be blinking red.
5. Once communication is verified replace the front cover of the Nurse
Call transceiver and remount it to the wall mounting plate.
Universal
Transceiver
A Universal transceiver can be used to integrate your facility’s existing
equipment such as backup generators or other devices that can be
integrated with the software. Universal transceivers can be programmed
as either NO (normally open) or NC (normally closed) devices. They
automatically activate when the input from a monitored device has a
contact close or open. When this happens, the Universal transceiver
sends event information to the Central Server. The Universal transceiver
is powered by a replaceable 3V coin cell battery.
To wire the Universal transceiver connect the two 22-gauge, 2-conductor
stranded wire into the appropriate terminals on the existing device. Refer
to the device manufacturer’s instructions or contact the RF Technologies,
Inc. Technical Support Team at (800)-669-9946 or (262) 790-1771 to
identify the correct terminals.
Display
Page 44 of 77
The Universal has one (1) LED light. The light is visible when enclosure
door is open (i.e. during installation), but not visible during normal
operation when the enclosure door is closed. The light flashes briefly once
every check-in (20 minutes by default) and once each time the device
alarm is triggered or cleared. Green indicates communication with the
Router is good; red indicates communication failure and device is not able
to transmit to the Router.

Door/Window
Transceiver
A Door/Window transceiver is used to protect a door or window against
unauthorized egress. An Exit alarm event is reported in the Event List
when a monitored door or window is opened. The alarm automatically
clears when the door or window is closed. The Door/Window transceiver
is supervised; if no information is received by the system from the
transceiver for a specified number of minutes, a Device Fault alarm is
generated in the Event List at the computer.
The Door/Window transceiver comes in two pieces: the transceiver
enclosure and a magnet. The magnet is attached directly to the door or
window. The transceiver enclosure is mounted on the door or window
frame and can be mounting with the attached adhesive pad or a screw.
An alarm triggers when the devices are separated. The Door/Window
transceiver is powered by a replaceable 3V coin cell battery.
Display
The Door/Window transceiver has one (1) LED light. The light is visible
when enclosure door is open (i.e. during installation), but not visible during
normal operation when the enclosure door is closed. The light flashes
briefly once every check-in (20 minutes by default) and once each time
the device alarm is triggered or cleared. Green indicates communication
with the Router is good; red indicates communication failure and device is
not transmitting to the Router.
Mounting
To mount the Door/Window magnet to the door or window:
NOTE: When mounting the Door/Window magnet on a door, there is a
better sensitivity if the magnet is mounted closer to the opposite edge
from the hinges.
1. Determine placement of the magnet. The distance between the reed
switch in the transceiver and the magnet must be no more than 1/2
inch.
2. Using the Door/Window transceiver magnet as a template, place it
level against the door or window and mark the location of the two
mounting holes.
3. Drill holes where you made the marks.
4. Line up the holes on the magnet with the newly drilled holes and
mount the magnet using the screws provided.
