3. INTRODUCTION The SmartWire Nurse Call System complies with Australian Standard AS3811 1998 for Hard- Wired Patient Alarm Systems. SmartWire Nurse Call System is a Bus-connected system, with 4 wires connecting most of the components. The bus communicates to the SmartLink Monitoring Software via a Master Controller Unit. Some items (e.g. overdoor lamps) can be directly wired to intelligent Type A Call Points serving for independent operation in the event of a bus failure. A single bus with one Master Controller Unit can carry information relating to a maximum of 240 individually identifiable Call Point numbers. A maximum of 4 SmartWire Master Controller Units may be connected to SmartLink s Monitoring Software enabling 960 individual call points to be monitored. Each of these individual Call Points (Client Codes) can be assigned to signal 5 different types of call: 1. Patient Call 2. Wet Area (Patient Call) 3. Emergency 4. Staff Assist 5. Nurse Presence 4. CABLE SPECIFICATION Recommended cable type is 6-core multi-strand cable (6Cx14x0.20mm) All wiring must be in accordance with AS3000 for electrical installations (wiring) Please refer to section 6 for more details on System Cabling 4
5. COMPONENTS TYPE A (Call, Socket and Cancel unit) Type A units connect directly to the Main Bus and provide up to a maximum of three functions on one plate (including the cord-set socket which is always a standard Patient Call, but have the intelligence to generate any type of call (fully programmable). They can be used as a hub unit where several types of calls are desired from the one SmartWire Call Point number (i.e. Client Code) location. They are backlit and capable of operating a multicoloured door lamp. The MKII Type A call points also have the added features of Call Escalation and Common Corridor Light Assignment. Right: Patient Call with socket plug Left: Staff Assist call with Patient Cord-Set Example 1 In a rest home room with en-suite, the Type A unit would be located at the bed, and Type B units would be used in the WC and shower. MAIN BUS MAIN BUS TYPE A Call, Socket & Cancel (Staff Assist) DOOR LAMP (Yellow) SOUNDER (if required) More Wet Area Units (if required) TYPE B Call & Cancel (Wet Area Call) TYPE B Call & Cancel (Wet Area Call) 5
TYPE B (Call and Cancel unit) The type B units have no intelligence, and are simply plates carrying push buttons and lights. They can only be connected in series to a Type A Call Point and are backlit. Several Type B plates can be connected to a type A unit, but they must all be of the same type of Call. Right: Nurse Presence Call Type B units must all have the same function and Call Point number (Client Code) associated with them. For example, it is NOT possible to have the Wet Area Call Points and a Nurse Presence call point connected to the same Type A unit. If Nurse Presence was required, another Type A unit would be needed in the room, and this in turn could support further Type B units, to make Emergency Calls for example (see Example 2). Example 2 The room illustrated in Example 2 is capable of making all five types of calls using 2 different caller IDs (one per Type A branch from the Main Bus). MAIN BUS MAIN BUS TYPE A Call, Socket & Cancel (Staff Assist) TYPE A Call, Socket & Cancel (Nurse Presence) Patient Cord-Set (Patient Call) DOOR LAMP (Yellow) SOUNDER (if required) More Wet Area Units (if required) TYPE B Call & Cancel (Patient Call) TYPE B Call & Cancel (Patient Call) More Emergency Units (if required) 6
Patient Cord-Set A Patient Cord-Set can be plugged into any Type A (Call and Cancel units), and will generate a Patient Call if unplugged. If a Type A Call Point does not have a Cord Set plugged into its socket during power up it will assume that a patient cordset will not be used and hence will not generate an alarm. However, once a Patient cord-set is plugged into the Type A, it will expect the Patient Cord-Set to be continuously connected. Removal of the Cord-Set will generate an Alarm of type Patient Call. Resetting the power of the Type A call point will cause the Type A call point to return to its original state. Right: Patient Cord-Set (cord length not to scale) Left: Patient Cord-Set plug (plug not to scale) Shower Pull Switches A Shower Pull Switch may be ceiling or wall mounted, and contains a reassurance light, but no Cancel switch. When used in a shower or WC room, the Cancel button on the Type B (Call and Cancel unit) beside the WC can be used to Cancel the shower pull. If used in a stand-alone shower or bathroom, the pull switch should be used in conjunction with a Type A (Call and Cancel unit) installed in the same room. Shower pull switches are fitted with breakable links in the cords. Right: Pull Cord hanging from ceiling Corridor/Door Lamps (Multicoloured) Where required, lamps can be installed and wired directly back to the Type A Call and Cancel points they serve. A single lamp is capable of displaying the appropriate Green, Amber and Red light conditions depending on the type of call. The corridor light is a Tri-State LED that requires 3 connections at all times. The three connections are labelled +, G, R, or positive, Green and Red. The combination of these two colours forms the third colour Amber. Right: Multicoloured corridor light in its OFF state. 7
Sounders Sounders are connected directly to the bus, and have a limited amount of intelligence. Their operation complies with the Standard s requirement that sounders and corridor lights should continue to operate if the main communication bus fails. The sounder monitors data on the bus and beeps according to the highest priority alarm. Right: Sounder with piezo-alarm output facing SmartLite Displays The SmartLite displays can run directly off the SmartWire Master Unit or from the SmartWire bus using a Display Controller Interface. Messages associated with a call point (Client Code) are displayed on the SmartLite Display when that particular call is initiated. Messages are prioritised in the order: Emergency, Staff Assist, Patient Call (Wet Area), Patient Call, followed by Nurse Presence. Zoning of messages is also possible with the use of the Display Controller Interface. SmartLite Displays can be either single or double sided for wall or ceiling mounted requirements respectively. (Supports RS232 and RS485 inputs) Above: SmartLite Display (Refer to Appendix 1 & 2) Wireless Remote Displays The Wireless Remote Displays are used to display SmartLink Alarm Calls on a BetaBrite or SmartLite LED display sent via POCSAG pager messaging. Alarms can be paged to a specific Cap Code recognised by the Remote Display Wireless Decoder which will then display the call with appropriate colours and priority for nurse call applications. SmartLink Alarm Calls are generated using SmartLink s Monitoring Software (SmartWatch XP). For more information, refer to the Remote Display Wireless Decoder Installation Manual or contact SmartLink International. (Supports only RS232 inputs) Above: BetaBrite Display with Remote Display Wireless Decoder unit 8
6. SYSTEM CABLING The system communicates via 4 wire bus system (+, -, A, B). Recommended wiring is 6-core multi-strand (6Cx14x0.20) flexible security cable. We recommend using the additional 2 cores to double up on the supply lines (+ and -) to reduce voltage drops. DO NOT use twisted pair cable such as CAT5 as this will interfere with SmartWire bus communications. For details on system cabling please refer to APPENDIX 1. 9
7. WIRING DIAGRAM 1 Ceiling Pull Cord The Ceiling Pull Cord, when activated, shorts the C terminal on the Type A Call Point to ground (-) causing an Alarm. The Alarm may be cancelled from the Type B Call points connected in parallel or in certain instances from the Type A Cancel button. As a general rule it is always advisable to connect Ceiling Pull Cords in parallel with a Type B Call Point as the ceiling pull cords do not have the ability to cancel Alarms. 10
8. WIRING DIAGRAM 2 Common Corridor Light Enabling the Common Corridor Light option (via DIP switches 6, 7, & 8) on the Call Point allows a single Corridor lamp to be activated upon activation of any of the Call points on the Common Corridor line. Setting a Type A Call Point to operate in this mode voids the use of Type B Call Points from that particular Type A Call Point. Please refer to the Section labeled Setting Call Types for activation of this mode. 11
9. WIRING DIAGRAM 3 Display Controller Interface The Display Controller Interface can be placed anywhere along the main bus to drive SmartLite LED displays. Each Display Controller can store Messages for up to 240 Call points on the SmartWire MKII bus. The Display Controller allows Zoning of displayed messages by only displaying information relevant to Certain Call Points. Each Display Controller Interface can drive up to 2 displays using direct RS 232 and up to 32 displays using an RS232 to RS485 converter. 12
10. WIRING DIAGRAM 4 - Zoning Displays The Display Controller Interfaces can be used to break up the system into zones, allowing only messages for certain call points to be displayed on specific LED displays. Each Display Controller Interface can drive a maximum of TWO displays up to 15 metres. Display Controller Interface to LED Display Wiring 13
11. WIRING DIAGRAM 5 - Interfacing Radio Receivers Typical Installation of the Radio Nurse Call Receiver onto a SmartWire MKII system The radio receiver is designed to work with the existing nurse call systems. The radio receiver interfaces through the local call point bus which makes integration extremely simple. The command messages of a radio key will activate the alarm through the local call point connections C and D. There is no requirement to program the radio keys as the radio messages will be validated by command and device type only. The radio receiver can be operated in two modes: Any Key Operation Mode and Programmed Key Only Mode. If operated in Any Key Mode the radio receiver will accept any SmartLink radio keys. If operated in Programmed Key Only Mode the radio receiver will only accept SmartLink keys that have been previously checked into the receiver (Maximum 40). Refer to APPENDIX 6 for more information on setting up a Radio Receiver. 14
12. WIRING DIAGRAM 6 - Interfacing External Devices External Devices such as Intercom Systems may be interfaced to the SmartWire MKII system by the use of a generic Modular Relay Board. The basic function of the relay board is to either short the C terminal on the Type A call point to Ground (for an activation) or to short the D terminal to Ground (for a cancellation). Other Proprietary SmartLink systems such as the Dementia and Patient Profiler or the SmartWalk system may be interfaced to the SmartWire system using the same principle. Note that the TR terminal on the Modular Relay Board is used to trigger the activation and cancellation of alarms. 15
13. CONFIGURING LED DISPLAY DESCRIPTIONS A 13 character SmartLite display can be connected to the SmartWire Master Unit or the Display Controller Interface. Call point alarms will be displayed with different colour messages for different types of alarm. Alarms will be displayed in priority and updated every 10 seconds. Only the highest priority messages are displayed. LED Display Alarm Priority Call Type Colour 1 EMERGENCY Red 2 STAFF ASSIST Yellow 3 PATIENT CALL, WET AREA & CORD OUT Yellow 4 NURSE PRESENCE Green The default text for each call point is CALL ID call point number. For example: CALL ID 25 will be displayed when call point 25 is programmed to CALL. If there are any EMERGENCY Alarms, only the Emergency Alarm messages are displayed. If there is more than 1 Emergency message, each message is displayed for 10 seconds. If there are no emergency messages, the next highest priority messages are displayed. Configuring Display Messages The call point descriptions can be changed by creating a HyperTerminal connection with: Baud Rate 9600, Data Bits 8, Parity None, Stop bits 1 Plug the PC running HyperTerminal to the RS232 Communication port on the SmartWire MKII and press the Enter key. The following prompt will appear: Enter Call point Number:_ Follow prompts to change display text. Enter Call point Number (1-240): 12<CR> CALL ID 12 Enter call point name or <CR> to keep: ROOM 1<CR> Enter Call point Number: _ Example strings: CALL call point 6 ROOM 6 EMERGENCY call point 8 BATH 8 NOTES: The display edit feature will time out after 60 seconds or when an <ENQ> character is received and a time out message is displayed. If <CR> is pressed when entering call point number, all 240 call point strings are displayed. Maximum call point description is 13 characters. 16
14. TECHNICAL NOTES System Polling When the Master Unit is powered up, it will poll all the Call Points on the Main Bus and store the addresses in its non-volatile EEPROM memory. If the Master finds that a Call Point is disconnected or damaged, it will report a POWER Disconnect alarm with the associated Client Code of the Call Point to the Monitoring Software. It is only reported once and is deemed to be removed from the system so as to prevent a removed call point being reported as Power Disconnect forever. When the Call Point is connected back onto the Main Bus, the Master unit will recognise it and cancel the POWER Disconnect alarm. If a new call point is added to the system while powered down, it will be detected on power up and reported as Power Disconnect restore. A new system will report all call points connected to it the first time it is powered up. Display Controller Interface The display controller controls the LED display through an RS232 connection. Although the master unit can also carry out this task of controlling a LED display the Display Controller Interface is required in some installations where more than one LED display is required. The Display Controller Interface connects to the main bus and listens-in on the messages transmitted by the call points and sends the corresponding messages to the LED display. The Display Controller Interface uses the same hardware as the master unit with transmitter of the bus A removed and brown out voltage reduced from 7.5V to 6V. Master Unit Buffer In the event that communications between the SmartWire master unit and the monitoring PC is broken, the master unit buffers all alarms that are activated or cancelled. When the communication between the SmartWire master and monitoring PC is re-established the SmartWire system reports the record of which call points were activated and cancelled along with the present state of the system. System Low Battery Reporting (Client Code 9917) The Master Unit continuously monitors its supply voltage. When it detects that the supply voltage has dropped below 9.5V, it will report a BATTERY Low alarm with the Client Code 9917. Once the supply voltage exceeds 11.5V the BATTERY Low alarm is Cancelled. The SmartWire MKII has a brownout voltage of 7.5V, the master powers up once the supply exceeds 8.7V. Backup Battery Requirements The selection of a suitable backup battery involves knowing the current consumption of the entire system in standby and alarm states. To determine the total current consumption, you will need to know the quantity and configuration of the different types components used in the system. See APPENDIX 2 for details. 17
15. SYSTEM SETTINGS Master Controller Interface Master Interface Units act as an interface between the SmartLink Monitoring Software and the SmartWire Hard-wired Nurse Call System. Each Master Unit can handle up to 240 individual Call Point numbers which are allocated to Type A and Type C units only (Type B units share call points numbers with type A units and should NOT be included in this count). A maximum of 4 Master Interface Units can be used per SmartLink Monitoring Software installation providing a total of 960 individual Call Point numbers (Client Codes).

As mentioned previously the available Call Types are: Patient Call, Wet Call Area, Staff Assist, Nurse Present and Emergency Call. Each Type A call unit has three available inputs that can be used to activate Calls and Alarms: Main (local button on Type A and call units) Remote (one or more Type B units connected directly to a Type A call unit) Socket (used for Patient Cord-Set and always activates a normal Patient Call) 20

The first press of the Alarm button will cause the Cancel button to flash once, and send a call of Type Patient Call, a second press will cause the Cancel button to flash twice and will send a call of Type Staff Assist and a Third (and final) press will cause the Cancel button to flash three times and send a call of Type Emergency. Any Corridor lights attached to the Call point will reflect the state of the Call point i.e. 2 presses will flash Amber, 3 presses will flash Red. Calls are displayed on over-door lamps in order of Priority (Emergency, Staff Assist, Wet Area, Patient Call followed by Nurse Present). Socket is not available with Emergency Call Points in regulation with Hard-Wired Nurse Call Speciation AS3811. 21

APPENDIX 1 - Cabling Guidelines System wiring guidelines based on current consumption The following tables have been provided to assist installers in determining max cable lengths and components per single run of cable that is part of a larger star configuration. The figures found in the tables have been calculated for 6Cx14x0.2 cable, using the extra 2 cores to double up on the supply lines. The use of any other type of cable or configuration will void these figures. Table 1 - Component Current Consumption SmartWire MKII Component Standby Current (ma) Alarm Current (ma) Current Consumption Relative to Type A Type A Call Point < 4 6 Type B Call Point 1 2 1/3 of a Type A call point Patient Bed Cord 1 2 1/3 of a Type A call point Corridor Light (steady) Nurse Presence, Patient Call 0 30 5 times a Type A call point Corridor Light (flashing) Staff Assist, Emergency 0 15 3 times a Type A call point Sounder (1 beep/second) 1 10 2 times a Type A call point Display Controller <30 30 5 times a Type A call point Master <30 30 N/A 1. Call Points placed at end of Single Cable Run (All call points are connected at end of the cable run, no successive call points) All calculations are based on the Type A call point. These may be substituted by any other component listed in the above table (taking into account the relative consumption).

System Configurations and Limitations The following are limitations based on 3 different configurations. The first configuration puts emphasis on large area coverage with minimum call points whereas the last configuration puts emphasis on small area coverage with max number of call points. Depending on your requirements you may choose either of the configurations. Table 8 - Large Area Coverage with Minimum Call Points SmartWire MKII Component Max quantity per entire star configured bus Type A Call Point 50 Sounder (1 beep/second) 20 Display Controller 5 Max TOTAL cable run (metres) 4000 Table 9 - Medium Area Coverage SmartWire MKII Component Max quantity per entire star configured bus Type A Call Point 120 Sounder (1 beep/second) 30 Display Controller 5 Max TOTAL cable run (metres) 3200 Table 10 - Small Area Coverage with Maximum Call Points SmartWire MKII Component Max quantity per entire star configured bus Type A Call Point 240 Sounder (1 beep/second) 40 Display Controller 10 Max TOTAL cable run (metres) 1600 Line Boosters In situations where the maximum component count or cable run has been exceeded, Line Boosters may be used to reduce the effects of system capacitance on bus communication by reducing signal rise times. For further information please contact SmartLink International Pty Ltd. Cabling Example Requirement: Medium sized hospital requires a hard wired nurse call system for its existing 90 beds. The installation also requires 4 LED displays, and 20 sounders. The installation should also be able to cater for an additional 30 beds in its new wing that will be located approx 800m from the master unit. Solution: Taking into consideration the future expansion and the number of call points required we would use figures from Table 9 Medium Area coverage. This will enable us to have a total of 120 call points, with 30 sounders, 5 display controllers and a total cable run of 3200 metres. Assuming that on average 20 call points would be required every 100 metres for the existing wings, and using figures from Table 6, we would require two runs of 200m cable. For the proposed new wing that will be located 800 meters away, we would use 3 separate runs of 800m cable each supporting 10 call points (figures taken from Table 2). So the overall total cable run would be 2800m, which is well within specification. 29
APPENDIX 2 Calculating Backup Battery Requirements Batteries must be installed in accordance with the manufacturer s recommendations. The Australian Standards for Hard-Wired Patient Alarm Systems states: Battery backup shall be sufficient to provide a minimum of 10 min operation with the capacity to supply an additional 50% of the power requirements with 25% of the loops operative. Rechargeable batteries shall be capable of being fully recharged from a fully discharged condition within 24h. Each battery container shall be legibly and durably marked with the month and year of installations, e.g. 1/98 meaning January 1998. Current Consumption Figures per Component We suggest that you use the following allowances when calculating battery capacity: SmartWire MKII Component Standby Current (ma) Alarm Current (ma) Type A Call Point < 4 6 Type B Call Point 1 2 Patient Bed Cord 1 2 Corridor Light (steady) Nurse Presence, Patient Call 0 30 Corridor Light (flashing) Staff Assist, Emergency 0 15 Sounder (1 beep/second) 1 10 Display Controller <30 30 Master <30 30 Battery Calculation Example For example, if we have a system with 50 Type A call points (25 Patient Call and 25 Emergency) with each having corridor lamps, 30 bed side plugs, 40 Type B call points, 10 sounders, 5 display controllers, and 1 master then our total max current consumption in alarm state shall be: Type A call points: 25 x 6 = 150 Steady Patient Call Corridor Lights 25 x 30 = 750 Flashing Emergency Corridor Lights 25 x 15 = 375 Bed side plugs 30 x 2 = 60 Type B call points 40 x 2 = 80 Sounders 10 x 10 = 100 Display controllers 5 x 30 = 150 Master controller 1 x 30 = 30 TOTAL Current 1695 ma Using a standard 12V Lead-acid battery with a 7 Ah capacity will power the entire system for approx 4 hours in a worst case scenario where all call points are in alarm state. This would be more than enough to satisfy the requirements of the Australian Standards for Hard Wired Patient Alarm Systems. 30

Appendix 5 - Autotex AM 34
Autotex AM FAQ Continued What is a Microbe Microbes are single celled organisms that are too small to be seen with the naked eye and must be viewed through a microscope. The naked eye is only able to detect the presence of microbes once they have multiplied to the hundreds of thousands. And under the right conditions, some microbes can double in number every 15-20 minutes. Types of microbes include bacteria, algae and fungi or mold. Is Autotex AM with Microban antimicrobial technology safe? Yes - Microban has undergone extensive independent laboratory testing and has a long history of safe use. Will scratching or scuffing the film diminish the effectiveness of the AM function No - Because the antimicrobial agent is evenly distributed throughout the texture, its effectiveness is constant even if the surface is damaged. Do we still have to clean the film Yes -Autotex AM provides continuous antimicrobial protection however if dirt or residue build up on the surface bacteria can grow on top of the build up. Normal cleaning practices should therefore be maintained. Does the anti microbial protection begin working immediately? The antimicrobial function of Autotex AM begins to work as soon as the microorganism comes into contact with the product surface. It then works continuously to maintain a consistently lower bio-burden than would be expected on a product without antimicrobial protection. Under the right conditions, microbes on an untreated surface can double every 20 minutes! Does the antimicrobial leach or migrate from the film? No - The antimicrobial is permanently locked into the texture and can not leach or migrate from the film. What is the Microban Certification Programme? The Microban brand promise to consumers is to deliver continuous, durable and effective antimicrobial protection. To ensure this is fulfilled, Autotex AM has been subjected to extensive testing prior to commercialization and is manufactured under stringent quality assurance guide lines in addition film samples from every production making undergo a rigorous testing programme carried out by LawLabs a leading, independent inspection body who are responsible for overseeing and regulating the Microban Certification Programme. Does the use of antimicrobials cause resistant strains of microorganisms? No - After more than 30 years of use in numerous consumer, industrial and medical applications around the world, there has been no evidence of resistant strain development. Will the film irritate, is it sensitizing? No - Autotex AM will not irritate skin and is not sensitizing. Is Autotex AM approved for use in food contact applications? No. What cleaning products can be used with Autotex AM? As far as we are certain, normal cleaning products can be safely used with Autotex with Microban. However, complete compatibility with all cleaning products can not be guaranteed and so in cases of doubt you should contact your local Autotype representative for further information. 35
