or concrete objects placed on or near the radio path or deliberate jamming or other inadvertent
radio signal interference.
6.3.5 System Users
A user may not be able to operate a panic or emergency switch possibly due to permanent or
temporary physical disability, inability to reach the device in time, or unfamiliarity with the
correct operation. It is important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the
nurse call system and that they know how to respond when the system indicates an alarm.
6.3.6 Automatic Alarm Initiating Devices
Motion sensors, smoke detectors, heat detectors and other alarm initiating devices that may
be an ancillary part of this system may not properly detect an alarm condition or signal the
Central controller to alert occupants of an alarm condition for a number of reasons, such as:
the motion sensor, smoke detectors or heat detector may have been improperly installed or
positioned; smoke or heat may not be able to reach the alarm initiating device, such as when
the fire is in a chimney, walls or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors; and, smoke and
heat detectors may not detect smoke or heat from fires on another level of the residence or
building. Motion sensors must be kept clear of any obstacle to impede the sensors ability to
detect movement.

televisions, air conditioners or other appliances, or passing traffic. Audible notification,
however loud, may not be heard by a hearing impaired person.
