9. Ward coupling
Usually, you look after only those rooms in your ward with your ComStation-
BUS-C
. If necessary, for example when there are few staff, several wards can
be coupled.
All calls and staff registrations in the coupled area are displayed on all
ComStation
BUS-C
units in the area.
All calls in the coupled area are forwarded to all of the area.
Wards can be coupled by you or by another call handling console.
If one or more wards are coupled with your ward, you will see the following
symbol in the title bar of the display:
Your system administrator has installed a maximum of 8 ward couplings,
from which you can select. There is a coupling of certain wards behind every
ward coupling. Ask you system administrator which wards will be coupled
with which ward coupling.
You can activate these ward couplings. At the same time, other ward cou-
plings can be activated, which you cannot influence. If a ward coupling is ac-
tive, the appropriate wards are coupled.
9.1 Activating / deactivating a ward coupling
This is how you activate an inactive ward coupling or how you de-activate an
active ward coupling.:
Press „Program“ > „Ward Coupling“.
= Symbol for ward coupling.
NOTE! Ward coupling disables shifts (see page 49 onwards).
This means that if a shift is active, it will be disabled. The ward
is no longer divided into zones.
