Units
Upon admission, a patient or asset must be assigned to a Unit. A Unit represents a protected area in your facility
that is monitored as a unit, such as the Nursery or Intensive Care. All devices in the area are assigned to the unit,
and are identified on a map or floor plan specific to the unit.
Some units may have more than one patient or asset occupying the same room. It is important when admitting a
patient or asset to a double-occupancy room that you specify which bed or side of the room the patient or asset is
assigned, for example room 101-A or room 101-B.
If an alarm occurs, the relevant alarm information, such as the patient’s or asset’s name, the type of event, and the
location of the event, is displayed at any Client computer that has been configured to monitor the unit. Some
System Properties, such as the time allowed for the discharge and adjust function, are defined at the unit level.
Supervised Transmitters
The Supervised Transmitter feature only applies alarming band transmitters and 9600 QR transmitters. A
Supervised Transmitter is the system’s way of ensuring that transmitters are operating properly and within range
of the receivers. When the Supervised Transmitter function is enabled, a Check Transmitter alarm will be placed
in the Event List if the system does not receive a signal from the transmitter within a specified time interval. The
supervision interval is configured in the Configuration-Units menu. The Supervised Transmitter function
defaults ON.
Global Lockdown
A Global Lockdown is when all of the doors are automatically locked, for example, during night hours or during a
Cut Band alarm. When a door is opened during a Global Lockdown, an alarm sounds at the Exit Alarm
Controller, a message is displayed on the Client computer(s) in the unit configured to monitor the door, and the
location of the Exit Alarm is indicated by a flashing icon on the map on the Client computer(s)
If your facility has enabled the Lockdown on Cut Band Alarms feature, a Cut Band Alarm triggers a Global
Lockdown. You can configure the Global Lockdown feature to lock doors at All exits or By transmitter units.
However, if a Cut Band alarm is triggered during an Escort or a Transfer, the system automatically locks All exits
and posts the alarms on all Client computer(s).
