Smart Patient and
Staff/Duty Stations
HC-PSTN1, HC-PSTN2, HC-CCPSTN
and HC-DUTY
Smart Patient and Staff/Duty Stations are a primary point
of two-way communications between patients and staff.
Equipped with three call buttons and a cancel button, they offer
users an easy-to-operate means of placing calls on the patient-
staff communications system.
With a built-in speaker and microphone, these devices also
provide patients with the means of having a full-duplex
channel of audio communications with attending staff, and
vice versa. On-board LEDs provide operational feedback as
well as status indication.
Smart Patient Stations (HC-PSTN1 & HC-PSTN2) provide separate
18-pin receptacles for the connection of pillow speakers. Each
Smart Patient Station also comes equipped with two 0.64 mm
(0.25 in) receptacles that can be programmed to accept either
an input from auxiliary equipment, or a bed call cord.
Single Smart Patient Stations (HC-PSTN1) provide one set of
connections. Dual Smart Patient Stations (HC-PSTN2) provide
two sets of connections. Smart Staff/Duty Stations (HC-DUTY)
have no bed connections or call cord jacks.
Call Cord Patient Stations (HC-CCPSTN) come equipped with
two 0.64 mm (0.25 inch) receptacles that can be programmed
to accept either an input from auxiliary equipment or a bed call
cord(s). Can be configured to support one or two patient beds.
All stations provide a NiteLite on-board lighting feature for
easy visibility under low ambient light conditions. They feature
a snap-together design with no mounting screws visible after
installation. Their clean, modern look complements any decor.
Smart Patient and Staff/Duty Stations are installed in
unobstructed areas next to patient beds. Single Smart Patient
Stations serve the needs of one patient. Dual Smart Patient
Stations are installed between two beds and have two sets of
connectors, one for each bed. Smart Staff/Duty Stations are
installed in break rooms and other areas where staff may be
reached. They do not have bed connections.
Calls placed on Smart Patient and Staff/Duty Stations register
and annunciate at ColorTouch VoIP Staff Consoles and
ColorTouch VoIP Annunciators. Connected Infinity LED dome/
zone lights will also operate appropriately depending on the
nature and urgency of the call. These stations also provide full-
duplex audio communications that allow users to speak with
Staff Consoles and Annunciators.
