Transmitters
The transmitters are lightweight and
compact. They can be left on the patient
during bathing but prolonged exposure to
wet conditions and complete submersion
should be avoided.
SUBMERSION—Prolonged submersion may
result in equipment and/or system failure and
voids any and all Product Warranties.
How do the transmitters work?
When activated, a transmitter sends a signal
that is received by Exit Alarm and Alarming
Band Receivers. If a patient wearing a
transmitter is detected in an Exit Alarm Zone
and the door is open, an alarm sounds at
the exit as well as at a Central Server and
its network of Client computers.
RADIO FREQUENCY: The radio frequency
(RF) characteristics of certain metal crib carts
may interfere or block the Infant transmitter’s
signal during transport, preventing detection
by the system’s Exit Receiver.
