Directing Test Results to Specific Rooms
The above configuration procedure is designed to have EIRIS
first validate whether or not the mother is in fact with the correct
baby and second trigger the correct green or red lamps on the
installed visual indicators. In other words, if a number of visual
indicators are installed throughout the facility, they will all
simultaneously indicate the results of the match tests regardless
of where they are.
Should it prove necessary to segregate the outputs such that
each room has its own visual indicator, then the following Elpas
hardware, EIRIS software extension and EIRIS alerts are needed:
• Each room must be equipped with an Elpas IR reader with
local processing, an Elpas External Box (EXB) and a visual
indicator (such as an Elpas Signal Tower).
• Using the optional Elpas Extension (since it supports the
ability to associate LF exciters with particular IR or RF
readers) combined HHLF/IR locations need to be defined for
each room in EIRIS.
• Additionally, subsequent Success and Failure alerts need to
be defined for each room in EIRIS.
