Swinging a Station to a Duty Area (MENU, 3, 3, 2)
This menu selection allows you to “swing” designated stations from one duty area to
another. A duty area is a set of stations that have been grouped together. Stations can be
audio paged and monitored by duty area.
Notes:
•
This is a temporary assignment, until the station is assigned to another duty area.
Base master coverage is not affected by duty area assignment.
•
Only designated swing stations should be assigned in this manner. These stations
should be recorded in the Designated Swing Stations Chart on page 3-15.
•
Swinging a station from a duty area in one nursing unit to a duty area in another
nursing unit will also cause it to appear in that new nursing unit in any ESM client
applications that are installed.
