Check Transmitter Alarm
A Check Transmitter alarm occurs when the system is unable to locate the transmitter within the required
supervised time.
To respond to a Check Transmitter Alarm
1. Always follow your facility’s policies and procedures to ensure patient safety and secure the area.
2. Verify transmitter is fastened correctly and without signs of damage.
For more information, refer to the appropriate Transmitter User Guide.
3. From the Client computer, click anywhere in the Check Transmitter Alarm Message Box to access the
Event Information window.
4. Select one of the following event causes:
• Clasp open —one of the clasps on the transmitter was open.
• Band cut—the banding material on the transmitter was cut.
• Band worn—the banding material on the transmitter is worn and must be replaced.
• Unauthorized open-—an unauthorized person opened the transmitter clasp.
• Adjust—a transmitter was being adjusted without authorization.
•Discharged —the transmitter was being removed in a discharge without authorization.
• Tes t —the system was being tested.
• Other—opens a Clear Reason window, user must enter the cause in this window.
You cannot clear an event until you select the appropriate cause for the event. The event is cleared from
the Event List of every Client computer configured to monitor the unit.
5. A Check Transmitter alarm may be an indication that Receiver coverage may be inadequate. Contact
your System Administrator.
WARNING: You must test all transmitters prior to use, and periodically
thereafter, to verify proper operation. Failure to test the transmitters before use
can result in system failure and/or an elopement or abduction. In addition, failure
to test transmitters voids the RF Technologies Product Warranty.
NOTE: You can click Silence to stop the alarm sound at the Central Server or Client
computer. The alarm is silenced at that computer only, for the configured length of time;
however, the event still appears in the Event List. The next event automatically restarts the
alarm sound.
