there is one (1) red LED flash and one (1) beep, the Bed Beacon was already in bed mode and is now in
stretcher mode. Repeat the process to get the Bed Beacon back into bed mode.
1.2 Step 2: Installing the Bed Beacon (92053072)
The patient bed must be raised to a height of 32 inches from the floor to gain access to all of the mounting
locations.
Bed Beacon mounting
Mount the Bed Beacon on the center rail and secure the Bed Beacon with two 18" natural cable ties as
shown in Figure 1. Make sure the Bed Beacon and the mounting surface are clean and free of dirt and oil. A
soft cloth dampened with isopropyl alcohol works well to clean both surfaces.
1.3 Step 3: Installing the AC Line Power Sensor on the Bed’s AC Power Cord
The AC Line Power Sensor (see Figure 2) is mounted onto the bed’s black AC power cord located
underneath the bed. Use the supplied cable ties to secure the AC Line Power Sensor to the bed’s power
cord as shown. The Bed Beacon Patient Zone is only enabled when the Sensor detects AC power on the
bed’s line cord after it is plugged into an AC outlet. The Bed Beacon Patient Zone will be disabled while the
bed is unplugged. The Bed Beacon will send heartbeats in both the enabled and disabled modes.
