3.16 Bed exit detection system (optional)
Bed exit detection requires no calibration and can warn if there is a variation in the
weight measured on the scales.
Press one of the buttons described below while the patient is in bed to activate the
function.
Key identification
Zone 1: Bed exit detection. The system will warn if the weight measured
in the bed reduces significantly, indicating that the patient is no longer
in bed.
Zone 2: Lateral motion detection. The system will warn if the patient
attempts to leave the bed. Please note that this option may cause false
alarms if the patient is agitated, or if the patient moves around the bed
while sleeping. When activating Zone 2, make sure the patient is in a
centered position in the bed to minimize false alarms and increase
system accuracy.
Also includes Zone 1 alert.
Zone 3: Frontal movement detection. The system will alert if the patient
attempts to leave the bed towards the foot end of the bed. Please note
that this option may cause false alarms if the patient is agitated, or if the
patient moves around the bed while sleeping. When activating Zone 3,
make sure the patient is in a centered position in the bed to minimize
false alarms and increase system accuracy. Also includes Zone 1 & 2
alert.
Alerts
If the patient moves and activates the alert, the system issues 3 types of warning.
Visual indication is provided by indicator lights located under the footboard interface.
When the system needs to warn staff, these indicators flash.
The buzzer can emit a sound to alert caregivers. You can activate or deactivate the buzzer
as required. To do so, press and hold the zone 1 & 2 activation button on the bed exit
detection system until one of the following beeps is heard:
1 beep: buzzer deactivated
