8.2.2 Wireless Nurse Call with Speech
Wireless transceivers can be used to generate calls to notify the staff that help is needed. These
devices don't support speech themselves. To be able to set up a speech session with a person that
initiated a wireless nurse call, the wired teleCARE IP speech modules are required.
To be able to support speech for wireless call, a phone number will be included in the message
towards the messaging devices, including speech options. When selecting the IM option “speech” on
the messaging device, a speech session will be started with the wired peripheral that is configured
with that phone number.
For wireless speech, hard-wired speech modules are required at all the locations that contain wireless
transceivers that are configured to use static locations. In static location mode, calls from the wireless
transceiver are always linked to the location that is selected in the configuration of the wireless
transceiver.
When the wireless device is configured to use dynamic locations, speech modules are also required at,
or close to the locations that are covered by location beacons NILF. When in range of a location
beacon the wireless device will store the location information which will be used the next time a call is
made.
Figure 176. Wireless nurse call example with speech
This example consists of two room controllers (NIRC3) with transceiver module (NIRX) mounted for the
wireless communication and three room controllers (NIRC) with five corridor lamps from an existing
teleCARE IP configuration with speech. Each location has a doorside module with speech unit and a
passive location beacon. The two main entry doors to the corridor are controlled by an active location
beacon with access control unit.
Wireless speech will be based on the location of the wireless transceiver.
For wireless transceivers that are configured to use a static location, the phone number of the hard-
wired teleCARE IP speech module at the location that is assigned to the wireless transceiver will always
be used in the IM “speech” option.
For wireless transceivers that are configured to use dynamic locations, the phone number for the IM
“speech” option will be automatically updated when the wireless transceiver moves between
locations that are covered by active location beacons NILF.
When using passive location beacons, the IM options will not be updated when moving between
passive locations, and the speech location will be the location where the wireless call was first made.
