1. EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION This 2611s Standard Falls Monitor is part of the FallAlert Bed/Chair Monitoring System product range and is designed to work with the cura1 range of Premium Bed/Chair Pads and Floor Mats. When used with a Premium Bed or Chair Pad, the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor detects changes in the Bed or Chair pad caused by a patient or resident rising or falling from a bed or chair. If this occurs the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor activates an alarm. Bed Pads are typically placed under the bed sheets, but on top of the mattress, in the patient or resident’s bed. Chair pads are typically placed directly on the seat of the chair used by the patient or resident. When used with a Premium Floor Mat, the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor detects changes in the Floor Mat caused by a patient or resident stepping onto the mat. If this occurs the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor activates an alarm. Floor mats are typically placed adjacent to the bed or in the doorway of the patient or resident’s bedroom. The 2611s Standard Falls Monitor itself is typically installed on, or near to the patient or resident’s bed or chair or sometimes in the doorway of the bedroom. It is connected by a lead to the Bed/Chair Pad or Floor Mat. The 2611s Standard Falls Monitor is powered from 3 x AA alkaline batteries or additionally it may be powered from a suitable 6Vdc plug pack. 2. EQUIPMENT BATTERY LIFE The average lifetime of 2611s Standard Falls Monitor batteries is dependent upon usage. Typical lifetime, in normal operation, would be in the order of 6 to12 months. 3. LOW BATTERY DETECTION If operating from batteries only, when the battery becomes “Low”, the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor will beep intermittently. The “Low Battery” Light on the front of the Monitor will also illuminate. The batteries should then be replaced immediately. The “Low Battery” warning cannot be silenced or suspended and will continue until the batteries are replaced. The batteries are housed inside a compartment in the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor. They can be replaced by removing the central screw on the back of the unit and sliding the battery cover up to access the battery compartment. 4. MISSING AC MAINS POWER SUPPLY DETECTION If operating from batteries and 6V plug pack connected to mains power, the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor has mains power loss detection. When the plug pack is removed or loses mains power, the Monitor will beep 3 times intermittently and the front “Reset” button will illuminate. The beeping can be stopped by either restoring the mains power or by pressing the front “Reset” button. Note: After resetting, the missing mains power alert will not reactivate until mains power is restored and then lost again.

5. PAD LOST DETECTION After connecting a Premium Bed/Chair Pad or Floor Mat to the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor if the Pad or Mat is disconnected for any reason the Monitor will beep intermittently and the “Pad Lost” indicator will illuminate. Pressing the front “Reset” button will stop the beeping and reset the pad lost detection feature. Note: After resetting, the pad lost alert will not reactivate until a Pad or Mat is reconnected and then disconnected again. 6. SECURE RESET OPTION When an alarm condition occurs normally the caregiver resets the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor by simply pressing the “Reset” button on the front of the Monitor. However, in the event of a difficult resident or patient or to prevent unauthorized people resetting the Monitor themselves, a secure reset option is available. By moving the recessed switch in the side of the Monitor to the “Reset Button OFF” position disables the front “Reset” button. The caregiver must now use a Caregiver Reset Key to reset the Monitor and this prevents unauthorized resetting of an alarm. The caregiver resets the alarm by placing the Caregiver Reset Key on the red circle on the front of the monitor. 7. EQUIPMENT INSTALLATION Power Supply: Plug Pack Operation of the Monitor from a suitable 6Vdc plug pack is recommended. A 6Vdc power socket is provided in the side of the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor. An AC mains power supply general-purpose outlet (GPO) should be provided at a convenient point near to the Monitor. Plug the 6vdc plug pack into the GPO and then connect it to the 6Vdc socket in the side of the Monitor. Switch on the GPO. Batteries Using a small Phillips type screwdriver, remove the central screw in the rear of the Monitor and open the battery compartment by sliding up the cover. Insert 3 x AA batteries into the battery compartment. Note: Whenever plug pack or battery power is connected the Monitor will beep once to confirm that power is connected. Mounting: The 2611s Standard Falls Monitor unit can be fixed to the wall adjacent the bed or chair by using the mounting screw holes at the back of the Monitor. Optionally, the monitor may be placed inside a suitable mounting bracket. There is also a “soft” protective cover available that fits snugly around the Monitor so that it can be placed directly on a bedside table or attached to a bed head or chair with the straps provided. Nurse Call Output: If a remote alarm indication is required e.g. to activate an existing Nurse Call System using the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor a “Nurse Call” output is provided in the side of the monitor. This uses a
5
6.35mm audio type jack socket and presents “normally open” or “normally closed” volt free contacts rated at 0.5 amps maximum. An optional Nurse Call Cable is available to connect this output to the Nurse Call System input in the patient or resident’s room. Pads Or Mat Connection: Premium Bed/Chair Pads or Floor Mats are connected to the RJ10 modular socket in the bottom of the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor. It is important to loop the cable of the Pad or Mat through the cable strain relief adjacent the modular socket to help prevent damage to the Monitor or Pads or Floor Mat. 8. SETTING UP Adjusting Audible Alarm Volume: The volume of the audible alarm in the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor can be adjusted. This volume control is found inside the battery compartment at the back of the Monitor and is a thumbwheel adjustment labeled “Volume”. Volume can be adjusted from off to maximum Setting Melody Options There are three melody/tone options that can be selected to play when the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor goes into alarm. These options are selected using the three-position “Melody” slide switch found inside the battery compartment at the back of the Monitor. Setting Delays: There are three alarm delay options that can be selected to delay alarm activation. These options are selected using the three-position “Delay” slide switch found inside the battery compartment at the back of the Monitor. The three options are: 0 Sec Delay The alarm will activate immediately if the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor detects changes in the Bed or Chair Pad caused by a patient or resident rising or falling from a bed or chair. 2 Sec Delay The alarm will activate after 2 seconds if the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor detects changes in the Bed or Chair Pad caused by a patient or resident rising or falling from a bed or chair. This helps minimize false alarms caused by restless patients or residents moving around in bed or on a chair. 15 Min Delay The 15 min delay option allows for a mobile patient or resident to get out of bed, or out of a chair, then go to the bathroom for example, and return to the bed or chair without activating an alarm, provided they do so within the 15 min delay timeframe. Only if they fail to return to the bed or chair will the alarm activate. This reduces the need for caregiver intervention and allows the patient or resident a level of independence.

Note: The 15 min delay option will not work with a floor mat. The floor mat will activate the alarm immediately. 9. SYSTEM OPERATION There are 2 modes of operation for the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor; it can be used with either a Bed/Chair Pad or with a Floor Mat. Premium Bed/Chair Pads or Floor Mats are connected to the RJ10 modular socket in the bottom of the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor. It is important to loop the cable of the Pad or Mat through the cable strain relief adjacent the modular socket to help prevent damage to the Monitor or Pads or Floor Mat. Note: When used with a Bed/Chair Pad and pressure is applied to the pad i.e. patient or resident lying down in bed or sitting on the chair, the “Monitor Status” light will flash once every few seconds. This indicates that the Monitor is “Active” and monitoring the patient or resident. Bed / Chair Pad Operation Typically with a patient or resident lying in the bed or sitting in a chair, the equipment will operate as follows: 1. If the patient or resident vacates the bed or chair, the Bed/Chair Pad activates the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor. 2. The 2611s Standard Falls Monitor begins to alarm immediately (or after the selected delay time) and the “Reset” button on the front of the Monitor illuminates. This alarm condition will continue until one of the following events occurs: The patient or resident returns to the bed or chair: In this case, the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor cancels the alarm condition and “beeps” twice to acknowledge that the patient or resident has returned to the bed or chair. If the patient or resident does not return to the bed or chair, the alarm condition continues until the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor is manually reset. The caregiver goes to the bed or chair and resets the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor: The caregiver resets the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor by simply pressing the “Reset” button on the front of the Monitor or by applying the Caregiver Reset Key if the Secure Reset Option is selected. Floor Mat Operation If a patient or resident stands on the Floor Mat this activates the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor and the Monitor goes into an alarm condition. This alarm condition will continue until a caregiver manually resets the monitor. The caregiver resets the 2611s Standard Falls Monitor by simply pressing the “Reset” button on the front of the Monitor or by applying the Caregiver Reset Key if the Secure Reset Option is selected. Important: Test system operation before every use.
