Preface
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 Quick Response Premiere Wireless Call 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 Quick Response Premiere Wireless Call 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.

CHAPTER 1 Installing Hardware Components
Install Routers
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.
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 “LED Sequence” on page 25.
The two lights furthest from the Reset Button indicate device transceiver
communication status These set of lights flashes 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.
The two lights closest to the Reset Button indicate RS232 communication status. These set of lights
flashes briefly (once) when data is transmitted to an external RS232 device (i.e. Quick Look™).

Green indicates that the external RS232 device loopback is detected.

Red indicates that the external RS232 device loopback is not detected.
Place a Pendant into Survey Mode
A Pendant in Survey Mode is used to survey the coverage area when installing Routers. Any
Pendant transceiver can be configured for Survey Mode. While in Survey Mode the Pendant
periodically blinks either green or red, depending on whether or not it is in range of a Router.
Pressing the button on a Pendant in Survey Mode does not generate or clear alarms.
Prepare Pendant for Survey Mode configuration
1.
2.
3.
Insert the 3V Lithium coin cell battery into the Pendant.
Allow the Pendant to sit “untouched” for two minutes while it downloads the site’s
channels.
Remove the battery from the Pendant.
To configure a Pendant for Survey Mode
1. Hold down the button on the Pendant transceiver.
2. While holding the button down, insert a 3V Lithium coin cell battery into the battery holder
of the Pendant transceiver.
3. Continue holding the button down until you see the light blink (approximately 2 seconds).
The Pendant blinks green or red every 1 1/2 seconds. Green indicates that the Pendant is

To take a Pendant out of Survey Mode
1.
2.
Remove the 3V Lithium coin cell battery from the Pendant
Insert a “new” battery into battery holder of the Pendant. Do NOT hold the button down.
The Pendant is now ready for normal use (refer to “Pendant Transceivers” on page 55).
CAUTION: A Pendant in Survey Node depletes the battery quickly. It is
important to insert a new battery into the Pendant for use after Survey Mode is
completed.
Determine Placement of Routers
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.
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.
1.
2.
3.
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.
Walk back into range.
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.

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).
Insure that the wires are pulled tight through the wire tie wrap and cut excess.
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.
Place the rear plate of the Router into the recess on the back of the Router enclosure.
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.
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.
If raceway is being used now is the time to apply it.
If the power is supplied by a wall outlet power supply, then plug in the power supply.
If the power supply has a mounting tab, secure it to the outlet using the screw provided.
Repeat the above steps for the remaining Routers.
Router Configuration in Multi-story Buildings
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.

Quick Look Router
A Quick Look Router is a Quick Response Premiere Router connected to a wireless Quick
Look Display or High Visibility Display. 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.
NOTE: The location data displayed depends on 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 to a unit only and not individual rooms, the nearest location data is
displayed.
The Quick Look Router 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
Routers in the event of an inoperable Server. In reflector mode it will display device names and
the nearest Router that received the alarm.
Quick Look Routers are supervised; a routine signal is sent from each Quick Look Router 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 Routers should not be added to multiple units. Since
Routers are used to determine location, inaccurate location data
could result.

rejoin the network. On the Router, this is indicated by observing the L2 flash off and back
on after 5-seconds.
2. 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.
3. 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).

Gateway/Router Channel Default
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 a facility with multiple
Gateways, it is recommended to power-up only one Gateway system at a time during
installation. Once the first Gateway/Router system is up and running, switch that system to
another channel, then commission the next Gateway system (refer to “Additional
Gateway/Router Installation” on page 26).

CHAPTER 1 Installing Hardware Components
Additional Gateway/Router Installation
In some instances, it may be necessary to install an additional Gateway to support additional Routers. By
default, the Gateway and Routers are automatically assigned to channel 25. Once the first installation of
Gateway/Routers is complete and configured into the system, you must change the channel to install 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: 25, 20, 15
and 11.

CHAPTER 2
Installing Transceiver Devices
Introduction
This chapter provides detailed information about installing transceiver devices and testing the operations of the
Quick Response Premiere Wireless Call System with supported devices. Transceivers are devices that transmit
and receive alarm data. The transceiver devices listed in this section are supported by the Quick Response
Premiere Wireless Call System running the applicable 6.0 Series or above Software application. The Quick
Response Premiere Wireless Call System includes transceivers that are carried by the patient and fixed devices.
A fixed device is a stationary device that is assigned to a room or a unit. Fixed devices are not transported with
the patient but stay in the room or unit to which they are assigned.
WARNING: Before cutting openings or drilling holes through walls, you must verify
that you will not strike any wiring or plumbing.
Transceiver Devices
The transceiver devices are entered into the system by placing the device. Upon power up the device will join
the Zigbee network. The devices will then appear in the device list under Configuration Devices.
NOTE: Pull Cords and Universal Transceivers check in every 20 minutes; Pendants check-in
every 100 seconds by default.
The user must then update the device information; for example, give the device a name and/or enable features
(refer to the applicable Series System Administrator Guide).
The Quick Response Premiere Wireless Call System transceiver devices consist of the following:

Call Stations
Pull Cord/Emergency Call
Pull Cord with Check-In
Push Button Emergency Call
Nurse Call

Universal Transceiver

Door/Window Transceiver

Pendant Transceiver
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.

CHAPTER 2 Installing Transceiver Devices
Universal and Pendant Transceivers LED Light Indicator
The Universal and Pendant transceivers contain a two-color indicator light. In general, green indicates
good and red indicates bad.

No light—if the LED indicator does not blink within a few seconds of alarming or clearing an alarm,
this may indicate a dead battery; try replacing the battery. If the problem persists, contact Technical
Support.

3 green blinks—alarm, clear, or check-in had been transmitted and a confirmation has been
received from the Gateway.

10 green blinks—device has successfully received new configuration data from the computer.

1 green blink—alarm, clear or check-in has been transmitted but the device has not yet received a
confirmation from the Gateway. Wait up to 15 seconds for the device to try again by itself; do not
re-alarm the device. The Pendant will also blink green once each time the blue button is pressed; as
visual feedback that the button press was recognized.

1 red blink—device cannot find a Router to communicate with; device may be out of range or on
the wrong channel. For the Pendant model #9600-0251, the battery maybe too weak.

2 red blinks—join failed; the device found one or more Routers, but Routers indicate they cannot
accept any additional devices. An additional Router may need to be added to support a large number
of devices in the same area.

3 red blinks (Pendant model #9600-0251)— message sent to local Router parent, but device did
not get an acknowledgement back from the Gateway. Gateway may have lost power, or all
communication paths to Gateway are broken.

CHAPTER 2 Installing Transceiver Devices
Call Stations
There are 4 models of QR 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.
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:




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
Installing Call Stations
Nurse Call Transceiver
A Nurse Call transceiver 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 transceiver 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.
Push Button Emergency Call
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

computer.
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 Series Software Administrator Guide). For various types of check in see
below.
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.

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.
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.
Tamper
The Universal transceiver’s tamper functionality operates in several modes depending on the device and
the type of tamper interference. In either case, when initiated, a Tamper alarm event will be listed on the
Event List at the Central Server. The types of tamper events are:

Case Open Tamper— initiated when the case to the Universal transceiver is opened.


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 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.

Pendant Transceivers
The Pendant transceiver is a wireless, mobile transceiver that can be worn around the neck or wrist, or attached
to a belt. The protective boot protects the Pendant transceiver against dropping and water ingress. However, to
prevent water damage, avoid prolonged submersion and direct contact with a water stream.
The Pendant has one (1) light that is visible from the outside of the enclosure. The light flashes 3 times in rapid
succession when the alarm is triggered or cleared. A green light indicates communication with the Gateway/Router is good; red indicates communication failure and the device is not transmitting to the Gateway/Router.
The Pendant can be supervised; if no information is received by the system from the Gateway for a specified
supervision time, a No Signal alarm is generated in the Event List at the computer. Since the Pendant is a
mobile device, no installation is required.
Activate the Pendant Battery
The Pendant is shipped with a replaceable 3V coin cell battery. To activate the battery, use your fingers
to re-move the back cover and pull out the plastic battery tab. Be sure the battery stays in the battery
holder while the plastic tab is removed. Additionally, make certain that you are not pressing on the blue
button while activating the battery.
Set up the Pendant
With the Pendant transceiver within range of the system, alarm the Pendant by pressing and releasing the
blue button. If the alarm message has been delivered successfully, the green light will flash 3 times.
The green light will then blink once every 3 seconds while the Pendant remains in alarm. The system
senses the Pendant when it goes into alarm.
