6.6.1  NIMS2 Electrical Connections and DIP Switch Settings

The medical rail socket (NIMS2) is an “active peripheral” which must be connected to one of the four 
room buses of a teleCARE IP room controller by the 4-pole room bus connector. The room bus connector 
includes the 5.5Vdc power supply for the NIMS2.

Each room bus offers individual addresses for up to four switch modules. The address is selected using 
the DIP switch on the switch module printed circuit board. Details of the DIP switch settings are given in 

6.4.10, Dip Switch Settings on page 67.
