To activate patient movement detection, press either the
In
Bed
button or
Egress
button for two seconds.
The threshold display indicator will flash to show the alarm
threshold level.
The further to the left the flashing indicator is, the lower the
alarm threshold, and small movements of the patient in bed will
be detected.
The further to the right the flashing indicator is, the higher the
alarm threshold, and only large movements, such as the
patient exiting the bed, will be detected.
To increase the patient movement detection threshold:
Press and hold the
Egress
button; the flashing indicator will
move towards the right. When the required threshold is
reached, release the button.
To reduce the patient movement detection threshold:
Press and hold the
In Bed
button; the flashing indicator will
move towards the left. When the required threshold is reached,
release the button.
After a few seconds the indicator will stop flashing and remain
lit to show that patient movement detection is active.
If movement of the patient above the set threshold is detected,
an audible alarm will sound and the threshold indicator will
flash.
To cancel the alarm or deactivate patient movement
detection:
Press the
In Bed
button or
Egress
button once.
The alarm will be silenced and the threshold display indicator
will go out to show that movement detection is deactivated.
WARNING
Before using patient movement detection, verify that the alarm can be
easily heard by caregivers, e.g. at the nurse’s station.
