Transmitters The passive infra-red motion detector may be used as either a call transmitter or a resident check-in device. Place a call: Call is initiated by movement. Reset a call: Click on the call in the Events Monitor and then click the Acknowledge button.

Transmitters The door/window egress transmitter notifies staff when a door or window is opened. Place a call: Call is initiated by opening the door or window that the device is connected to. Reset a call: Depending upon how the device is configured: The call is reset automatically when the door or window is closed, or Click on the call in the Events Monitor and then click the Acknowledge button.

Event Monitor Event Monitor’s Call Display—The call display shows all active calls, including call type, transmitter device number, resident name, location, and time elapsed since the call was initiated.

Registers The Registers are at the bottom of the Event Monitor screen. The six pages are used to view resident and transmitter information. They can also be used to add residents, assign transmitters, and determine which staff pagers receive event notification.

Patients/Residents Register The Patients/Residents Register displays a list of residents, along with tabbed panes that display each resident’s information, assigned locations, and assigned transmitters. It can also be used to add or remove residents from the system. Patient/Resident Information fields are custom-created for a facility using the separate Config Tool programming software.

Transmitters Register The Transmitters Register displays a list of all transmitters and repeater/locators. Tabbed panes display the transmitter’s location, assigned resident and supervision settings. The Transmitters Register is also used to add or remove transmitters from a system, and to assign transmitters to residents.

Staff, Groups & Assignments Registers The Staff, Staff Groups and Assignments Registers are used to customize a system to send automatic text messages to selected staff pagers.

Text Messaging Using Tek-PAGING® equipment, Tek-CARE®500 automatically sends a text message to staff pagers in response to a resident call. To send a manual text message, click on the envelope icon at the bottom of the registers, select staff members, type a message and click the Send button.

Remote Event Monitor The Remote Event Monitor software may be installed on up to 9 of the facility’s personal computers (PCs) running Microsoft Windows®, and networked to the Tek-BRIDGE® server.
