9.6.9 NUWIR Wireless PIR Module
The wireless infrared transceiver module (NUWIR-HU) is a wall mounted teleCARE IP
wireless peripheral containing a 916 - 921 MHz RF transceiver.
The NUWIR contains a passive infrared sensor (PIR) with an adjustable 20 degrees (narrow) or 90
degrees (wide) field of view, covering a maximum distance of 6 meters / 20 feet.
A motion detected status LED is included on the circuit board, but this is only available for
installation purposes. In order not to disturb the residents, this LED will not function during
normal operation.
Based on the software configuration the NUWIR can be used to indicate that a resident is
for example in the toilet in order to alert the caregivers after a preset amount of time. The
NUWIR can also be used as an automatic resident check-in trigger, simply allowing the
resident to check-in by motion detection when the resident is up and about.
The NUWIR comes in a white plastic body with a mounting bracket and installation kit for
surface mounting and is suitable for use in senior care homes and other healthcare
facilities.
The NUWIR requires 2 x 1.5V AA Alkaline batteries (not included) with a battery lifetime of
> 3 years. An automatic low battery warning is transmitted if the battery voltage falls
below 2.4V.
Each NUWIR has a unique identity (ID) and this ID is transmitted with every event.
