Posey 8235NCS Nurse Call Adapter Cable Set Instruction Manual
You can connect the following Posey alarms: Sitter Elite (8345), KeepSafe Deluxe (8374, 8374NP) and Sitter Select (8361) to your facility’s nurse call system to communicate with the nursing station in one of two ways:
Instructions for Use
- The 8282 will connect the alarm to a nurse call system if the wall outlet has a ¼” jack and you want to connect the alarm only.
- If the wall outlet is not a ¼” jack or if you need a nurse call button in conjunction with the alarm, you will then require the Nurse Call Adapter Cable Set (adapter and nurse call cable). We offer the following set of part numbers that include both adapter and nurse call cable for use in tandem. (See list below.)
To Connect the Nurse Call Cable Only
Insert one end of cable into aperture labeled “Nurse Call” jack on the
appropriate side of alarm (8345 right, 8374 left, 8361 left).
Insert other end of cable into wall jack of nurse call panel.
- Do not stretch or strain cable to avoid possible damage and possible malfunction.
- Do not attach cable to moving parts of the bed or chair that will cause strain or damage if the bed or chair is repositioned.
- Always position the cable so that moving parts (side rails, wheels, etc.) will not cause strain or damage the cable.
- Do not run over the cable with carts or equipment.
- Do not wrap the cable tightly during storage.
- Always remove the cable by pulling on the jack. Do not pull on the cable.
- Always secure the cable out of the way so that it will not be a tripping hazard.
- Always test alarm and nurse call function prior to leaving the patient unattended. Activate the alarm (remove pressure from sensor, unfasten chair belt sensor) and make sure the nurse call light for the proper bed and room activate in the hall and at the nurses’ station.
- Do not use the alarm sensor if they don’t activate each time weight is removed from the sensor or the chair belt is unfastened. Replace alarm and sensor with working units and retest before leaving patient unattended.
Nurse Call Adapter Cable Sets – NC Series (12 ft. cable)
Nurse Call Adapter Cable Sets – NCSL Series (3 ft. cable)
Connecting the Adapter to Nurse Call Cable
If you require an adapter to connect to the nurse call cable to communicate with the nursing station:
Insert one end of the nurse call cable into one socket of the adapter. Then place the nurse call cable system connector into the wall outlet. Plug your existing call cord into the other socket of the adapter.
When using a nurse call cable, ensure the nurse call cable is plugged into both the alarm and wall jack before leaving the patient unattended. Verify that an alert is received at the nursing station if the cable is unplugged from the wall jack.
NOTE: There will be no alert at the nursing station or at the bedside if the nurse call cable is unplugged from the alarm.
