Call Box Functions
The AW-NCB4100(W) is designed to be used in a wide variety of applications
and the means of activating the call box are as follows:
Large Blue Button Press
Will activate the call box primary alarm transmission. This large button is easy
to see and easy to activate. Press the large blue button and the call box will
initiate its wireless alarm transmission.
Pull Cord Activation
All AW-NCB4100(W) are equipped with a pull cord installation option. Simply
connect an appropriate pull cord to the “pull string” pig tail located at the bottom
of the call box. Pulling the pull cord will activate the primary alarm transmission.
Dual Bed Cord Functionality
The AW-NCB4100(W) call box can independently accommodate up to two
bedside call cords. These cords connect to the nurse call box with magnetic
breakaway modules. These magnetic breakaway modules provide a cord
release mechanism that prevents damage to the call box or cord if pulled
aggressively from the call box.
Bed Cord Port One
The left port of the call box will activate the primary alarm transmission.
Bed Cord Port Two
The right port of the call box will activate the secondary alarm transmission.
If a bed cord is pulled from the call box, the call box will activate as if the button
has been pressed. The call box will not be able to be reset until the bed cord
and breakaway module have been reinstalled into the appropriate magnetic
breakaway port.
Note:
If bed cords are not used with the nurse call box, port jumper plugs must
be installed in the unused magnetic breakaway ports of the call box.
Small Orange Button Press
On the front of the call box is a dual-purpose orange button. Its functions are as
follows:
Reset Button
To reset an active call box, simply press the orange reset button. The LED’s will
flash green if a successful reset has been initiated.
Resident Check-In Feature
If utilized, the resident check-in feature is activated by pressing the reset button
when the call box is idle. Doing so will cause the status LED’s to flash yellow
and will initiate a resident check-in transmission from the call box. This feature
must be activated within the ODIN Care system.
