Asset Tracking
Alarming band transmitters can be used for asset management. When an alarming band transmitter is
attached to an asset and admitted using the Add Asset admit function, Blue alarms are generated and appear
in the Event List when an attempt is made to remove the assets from an Exit Zone or the band is tampered
with or cut.
Non-Alarming Band Transmitters
Mother Transmitter
A Mother transmitter is placed on the wrist of a new mother and then linked to an
Infant transmitter worn by her newborn. When the Infant transmitter is in proximity of
the Mother transmitter, the Mother transmitter flashes a green light to indicate that the
Infant and Mother transmitters match. If there is a mismatch, meaning the Infant and
Mother transmitters do not match, the Mother transmitter flashes the red light three
times, and sounds a three beep alarm. A Mismatch Transmitter alarm is also generated in the Event List
at the computer. If there is a linking problem, for example, the Infant transmitter may already be linked
to another Mother transmitter, a Link Transmitter alarm is generated in the Event List at the computer.
In cases where the Mother transmitter is linked but no longer active (e.g. the patient has been
discharged but the transmitter was never cleared) the transmitter will beep after 24 hours of
inactivity. If the transmitter goes undetected and allowed to beep for 15 minutes, it will clear and
discharge itself from the system. Tapping the Mother transmitter will temporarily stop the beeping
but the transmitter remains in a linked state until manually cleared, refer to the Mother Baby Match
Mother Transmitter User Guide (PN 0510-1020). If not cleared, the transmitter will beep again after
another 24 hours of inactivity.
Each transmitter is stamped with a warranty expiration date. This date indicates the date that RF
Technologies’ warranty on that transmitter expires (the last day of the month stamped). If the warranty
period has expired, discard the transmitter immediately.
NOTE: Although the Mother transmitter will link to an Asset transmitter, the software
does not support this functionality. If this happens, clear the Mother transmitter and re-
link the Infant and Mother transmitters.
CAUTION: The Mother transmitter can be worn in the shower; complete
submersion should be avoided. Prolonged submersion may result in equipment
and/or system failure and voids any or all Product Warranty.
WA R N I N G: Using a transmitter beyond the printed EXP date can result in
system failure and/or an abduction.
