1.3 Step 3: Installing the AC Line Power Sensor on the Bed’s AC Power Cord
The AC Line Power Sensor (see Figure 3) is mounted onto the bed’s gray 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 field 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 field will be disabled while the bed is unplugged.
The Bed Beacon will send heartbeats in both the enabled and disabled modes.
1.4 Step 4: Adjusting the Bed Beacon to Proper Field Range
1. Connect the AC Line Power Sensor to the Bed Beacon via any RJ11 jacks as shown in Figure 4.
2. Plug the patient bed’s AC power cord into a 120vAC power source. This will activate the Bed Beacon so
that the range setting and all testing can be performed. Refer to section 6 - Adjusting the Patient Zone in the
main section of this document for instructions on adjusting the communication range.
