Battery Backup
When you unplug the grey power cord, a triple beep indicates the bed
has lost power and the battery indicator blinks green indicating the bed
is operating on battery. The battery backup operates most bed frame
articulations on the caregiver control panel of the head rail.
Battery backup operates:
• All bed frame articulations except Boost® feature
• On GCI Touchscreen: FlexAfoot™ powered bed length adjustment
and <30° HOB Limit
Battery backup does not operate:
• Patient pendant
• On GCI Touchscreen: Stand Assist, Chair, Bed Flat
To activate, press and hold any frame articulation control until the
articulation starts. There will be a 1-2 second delay before the control
activates.
SideCom® Communication System (Optional Feature)
The SideCom® Communication System provides a control for Nurse Call and
entertainment features.
The connector is located at the head-end of the bed below the headboard. If
the SideCom® communication cable is not connected within 45-seconds of
the bed being plugged into power, a triple beep will sound and a message
will appear on the GCI Touchscreen.
If equipped, a verbal safety prompt, “Call light not connected“ will sound.
The triple beep and alert message will continue until the communication
cable is connected, or if you turn off the reminder by pressing “Close” on the
touchscreen.
The Nurse Call controls are only visible and active when the bed is connected
to a compatible nurse call system. If the Nurse Call control is not visible,
but the bed communication cable is connected, contact your authorized
maintenance personnel.
