the number of daily meals
D: Bedroom Detects activity in the bedroom or sleep area.
May also act as both bedroom and bathroom exit
detection sensor in cases where bathroom is in
bedroom.
F: Living Area Detects activity in the area the senior spends the
most time in the home outside the bedroom or
bathroom. This is usually a living room or T.V.
area. Also counts towards detecting AM
Bedroom Exit. If possible, place this sensor such
that it may also detect the client before exiting
the home, as well as the main living area.
G: Outside Bathroom Detects exits from the bathroom—to prevent a
false Possible Bathroom Fall alert. Also counts
towards AM Bedroom Exit.
K: Near Door Detects motion in entrances and exits of the
residence- to detect people entering or exiting
the residence for “bed-checks”, or if the resident
leaves the room when they’re not supposed to,
the optional “Wander” alert may be detected via
this sensor. This sensor role may be installed
with a “Door Contact” sensor as well to improve
reliability.
Door Contact Detects whether or not an entry way door is open
or closed. To be used in conjunction with Near
Door sensor with Motion Through Door and
Wander installations.
LabelingSensors
When servicing and maintaining the installed sensors, it is important to know what sensor you are working
with. To be sure a sensor is identifiable by sensor type, please be sure to use the labels provided in the extra
sensor package to identify the additional sensor.
If you are using a sensor from the existing room kit (for example, reassigning the Medication Sensor to be
Near Door sensor), be sure to take the sensor designation label off of the sensor.
ReplacingSensorBatteries
The QuietCare system sensors require two AA batteries (AAA batteries for the door sensor) to operate. When
the remaining voltage in the battery is too low, this may cause the sensors to send false motion events, or to
stop detecting any events, so it’s important to change the batteries as soon as you can, upon receiving a “Low
Battery” notification from QuietCare.
NOTE: QuietCare sensors are not interchangeable; each sensor must be placed back in its original bottom
bracket for the role to which it is assigned. It is a good practice to change batteries one sensor at a time to
ensure that each sensor is placed back in its proper place.
Complete the following steps to replace sensor batteries:
