Description

The P137 is more than a pager, it is a complete Nurse Call Station in your pocket. It can monitor the status of up to 32 Alert-it alarm modules (nodes) using the Safelinktm radio protocol, within a range of up to 450m. Each alarm node can be allocated the client’s name and alarms are prioritised on the basis of 4 severity levels, with a different tone sequence for each. The pager can also warn of any breakdown in the radio communication link, before a client is left at risk. While, for quality control, there is a log of the number of times each alarm node/level has operated and the maximum time taken to clear the alarm. It is also possible to turn any node into a “wander” alarm, suitable for clients with Alzheimer's or Dementia. The pager will then warn if the clients moves outside a preset area by noting a drop in the radio signal strength. The pager can also be connected to a computer USB port via an optional docking station so that a full Nurse Call Station can be realised. It comes with the usual range of operational features that you would find in a cell phone such as backlit display, vibration for silent operation, power-save mode that can give over 80 hours operation. The unit is powered by two rechargeable AA cells, with a fast charge mode using the supplied mains adapter. The pager has a red beacon on top for clear indication of an alarm situation and a simple contact style output can be used to activate additional annuciator equipment, such as lamps, bells, nurse call systems or telephone diallers.
