Monitor
Latching: Requires staff to clear all local alarms by pressing the Reset
Button.
Non-Latching: Allows the monitor to be reset by re-applying weight to the pad
or by pressing the Reset Button.
Nurse Call Output
Note: The following descriptions apply to the Nurse Call output of the
monitor. Your Nurse Call system may behave differently depending on
how your system is configured. Test before using with the Nurse Call
system. See “Interfacing with a Nurse Call System” on page 30.
Latching: Nurse Call output stays active until the staff has cleared the monitor
by pressing the Reset Button.
Non-Latching: Nurse Call output stays active until either weight has been
reapplied to the pad or the Reset Button has been pressed on the monitor.
Note: Floor Pads always follow Latching behavior.
