F-2 FAQ User Manual
Why do I get Loiter alarms?
Loiter alarms occur when a Tag lingers in a
monitored zone for longer than the preset
allotted time. If you experience an
abundance of Loiter alarms, consider that
your monitored zones may be extending into
common resident areas. Contact a
maintenance technician for further
assistance.
Why do I get a Band Alarm if the band has
not been removed?
Band Alarms occur when a BR42 Tag band
is loosened, cut, saturated, removed or
tampered with.
Is the band snug around the infant’s
extremity and the conductive fibers
are in good contact with the infant’s
skin? If not, snug up the band.
Is excess band material properly
trimmed? If not, trim appropriately.
Is the band wet? If so, replace the
band.
Is the Cam Lock completely closed?
If not, snap it closed.
Furthermore, due to the global response of
Band Alarms and possible overlapping of
zones to assure complete coverage, a single
Band Alarm event may register at multiple
zones.
As always, make sure your Tags are
handled, transported, and attached to infants
properly as well as turned off when not in
use.
How can I reduce nuisance alarms?
Nuisance alarms are typically caused by:
the mishandling of Tags
improper storage of Tags
Loiter alarm time being too brief
(passersby causing alarms or during
slow-moving patient transfers)
lost Tags
In addition, if you are experiencing an
abundance of nisance alarms, consider that
your monitored zones may be extending into
common resident areas and make sure your
Tags are handled, transported, and attached
properly as well as turned off when not in
use.
System (Maintenance):
How often should I test my zones?
Accutech recommends that Facility
Performance Testing (Chapter 7) be
performed (at the minimum) on a monthly
basis. However, each facility should review
and modify the testing procedures as
necessary to meet their own unique security
requirements.
Who do I contact if the system does not
seem to be working?

of your Accutech Security System, contact
your system maintenance technician first,
then your local area Accutech
Representative.

my system?
