Enuresis Sensor
Part Number (41004/21)
Installation and User Instructions
Functionality
The Enuresis Sensor is a Telecare Sensor intended for use with the following Tunstall
Emergency Call Equipment:
– Telecom 4000+ and Telecare Overlay.
The Enuresis Sensor comprises a Telecare Interface Module (TIM) fitted with Enuresis
software (41004/20) and a Moisture Sensing Mat (S2209050).
The intended use of the Enuresis Sensor is to ensure client comfort by signalling an alarm
condition (by radio) in the event of the client’s bed becoming wet. The Enuresis Sensor is not
sold as a Medical Device and therefore should not be used for the diagnosis, prevention,
monitoring, treatment of or alleviation of enuresis.
The Enuresis Sensor is powered by 4 AA batteries with a minimum battery life of 2 years with
typical usage. The Enuresis Sensor automatically monitors the condition of the batteries and
as they approach the end of their life, the Enuresis Sensor will signal (by radio) this event to
the T4000 every 7 days (until the batteries are replaced or expire completely).
Installation
1. Install the Enuresis Sensor by placing the Moisture Sensing Mat underneath a cotton top
sheet and on top of any protective sheet. The shiny side of the Moisture Sensing Mat
should be uppermost and the centre of the mat should be located at the position where
bed wetting is most likely.
2. Insert the supplied batteries into the battery compartment in the base of the TIM in
accordance with the raised markings in the base of the battery compartment. A single
beep will be heard if the batteries are inserted correctly.
3. Connect the plug at the end of the Moisture Sensing Mat cable to the socket labelled
IP4/Prog on the front panel of the TIM. It is important that the blanking plugs fitted in the
other sockets of the TIM are left in place.
4. Program the Enuresis Sensor into the T4000+ (or Telecare Overlay system) using the
procedure detailed below.
5. The TIM should be located in a convenient place nearby, ensuring the cable is safely routed.
It is important that the TIM is not placed in a position where it may become wet. For
optimum radio performance the TIM should be mounted away from metallic surfaces.

Assigning to an emergency response system
Place your Tunstall T4000+ (or Telecare Overlay system) into radio trigger programming
mode.
‘Short’ the two metal studs on the Incontinence Sensing Mat together with a metallic object
(e.g. a key) as shown in the photograph below until a beep is heard. This signifies the radio
transmission has occurred.
The T4000+ (or Telecare Overlay system) will beep, indicating that
the sensor has been programmed into it. Leave programming mode
in accordance with the T4000 Advanced User Guide.
Check that the Enuresis Sensor has been correctly programmed into
the T4000+ (or Telecare Overlay system) by raising a test call. The
test call can be raised by generating a radio transmission from the
Enuresis Sensor in the same manner as described above.
User Instructions
The Enuresis Sensor will signal an alarm event once when a wet bed condition is detected.
After a wet bed event has occurred the Enuresis Sensor can be reset by disconnecting the
Moisture Sensing Mat from the TIM, cleaning it with detergent and a non-abrasive damp cloth,
and then drying it with a suitable non-abrasive absorbent cloth.
Once the Moisture Sensing Mat is dry, reconnect it to the TIM and replace in the dry bed.
It is possible that sweating during the night may cause false triggering of the Enuresis Sensor.
If this is the case then a folded cotton sheet or bath towel should be placed above the
Moisture Sensing Mat
Service Information
The TIM contains no user serviceable parts other than the batteries. The batteries should be
replaced when indication is received that the Enuresis Sensor is in the low battery condition.
Replacement batteries should be of the alkaline type and from a reputable manufacturer e.g.
Duracell. The battery replacement procedure is as detailed in Step 1 of the Installation
Instructions.
Old batteries should be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.
Should the Moisture Sensing Mat need to be replaced you can order a new mat from Tunstall
by quoting Part Number S2209050.
