2. Two beds with Bed Beacons in separate but adjacent rooms separated by a wall.
In both cases, the range of communication of a given Bed Beacon may overlap or interfere with a nearby Bed Beacon. If
this occurs, the HCW’s Badge may communicate with a nearby Bed Beacon instead of the intended Bed Beacon. This
miscommunication can result in the system reporting contact with the wrong patient. To eliminate the possibility of
miscommunication, the range of Bed Beacons in close proximity may be decreased, at any time, to insure that a HCW’s
Badge will communicate with the intended Bed Beacon.
6. Metadata Entry
6.1 New Bed Beacon Metadata Entry
Activate the Bed Beacon with a Badge, twice, at the hospital. The events will be transmitted to the server to be viewed
on the dashboard. To locate the active Bed Beacon, login to the dashboard and select the “Device” tab and select “Bed
Beacons” from the drop down list as shown in Figure 14.
The metadata can only be accessed by restricted logins. Read the Bed Beacon address on the product label. The Bed
Beacon hexadecimal address will start with a 1E. The 1E at the beginning of the address is the device type and tells the
dashboard that this is a Bed Beacon. Enter the full address into the “Device ID” column search window. In the example
below, the address is 1E00048A (see Figure 19). Click the “Click To Edit Device” icon under the “Action” column to open
the device’s metadata page.
