This guide provides detailed information about the hardware components
and devices of the Quick Response Premiere Wireless Call System. It
provides instructions about installation as well as specific requirements for
mounting components that make up the system. The Quick Response
Premiere Wireless Call System is to be professionally installed.
The system immediately notifies staff when a resident requires attention,
and provides details that are essential in responding quickly and
competently to a resident’s needs. The system offers a variety of devices,
each of which interfaces with the Central Server to ensure that when a
resident is in need, staff is alerted.
A Quick Response Premiere device may be worn by a resident; it could
be mounted to a wall where it is easy to access; it could even be used in
conjunction with other systems such as the Wanderer Monitoring System
(exit controllers and electromagnetic door locks).
Devices send data to the Central Server on a regular basis. When an
event occurs that warrants a response, staff is alerted by an audible alarm
from the Central Server, a message is displayed on-screen, and the
designated staff is summoned to respond to the situation. Staff can also
be notified of an event via pager or phone.

environment that maintains temperature between 50°F and 95°F and
humidity between 20% and 50%.
2. Set up all the components of the Central Server.
3. Plug the components into the back of the Central Server (monitor,
keyboard, mouse, printer).
4. Power the Central Server using a Plug-in Power Supply with a battery
backup unit (UPS). The UPS should be plugged into a backup
generator outlet.
The Gateway receives signals from Routers and transceiver devices and
sends them to the Central Server. The Gateway can be supervised; if no
information is received by the system from the Gateway for a specified
amount of time, a Device Fault alarm is generated in the Event List at the
computer.
The Gateway has four (4) single-color LED lights; two green and two red.
For more information on LED lights and LED sequence refer to the LED Sequence section.

5. Depending on which serial port server you use, do one of the
following:
When using a 4-port serial port server (PN 9450-0910) with cable
(PN 0460-0101), connect the RJ45 connector from the Gateway
to the top side of the serial port server. The serial port server is
located within the black box mounting assembly.
When using a single serial port server (PN 9600-0002) with cable
(PN 0460-0124), connect the 9-Pin connector from the Gateway
to the single serial port server. Run Cat-5 wiring using standard
568B and terminate each end with a RJ45 connector. Connect
one end to the Ethernet connector on the bottom of the single
serial port server and the other end to the Ethernet switch.
6. Now, either plug the serial port into the CPS observing the polarity of
the cable, red to (+ ) and black to ( - ) or plug the power supply into a
standard outlet. Using an uninterruptable power supply (UPS) is
recommended for standard output power.
7. Ensure that the wires are pulled through the wire tie wrap, secure
them tightly with the wire tie and cut off excess.
8. Place the rear plate of the Gateway into the recess on the back of the
Gateway enclosure.
9. Make sure the antenna is screwed on, then with the antenna pointing

powered
Routers receive signals from transceivers and re-transmit them to the
Gateway. There are two models of Routers, one with an internal antenna
and one with an external antenna for greater range. Routers can be
supervised; a routine signal is sent from each Router and if the signal is
not received by the system, a Device Fault event is generated in the
Event List at the computer.
Routers are powered by a plug-in power supply or central power supply. A
backup battery is also included in the Router enclosure. Routers can be
placed on either the wall or on the ceiling. If mounting to the ceiling, the
issue of bleeding through to the floor above must be considered. Other
factors that affect the placement of Routers are the availability of a power
source and sufficient coverage for the supervision of transceivers.
The Router has four (4) single-color LED lights; two green and two red.
For more information on LED lights and LED sequence refer to the LED Sequence section
RF Fail-Good: The two sets of lights furthest from the Reset Button
indicate transceiver device communication status. These set of lights flash
briefly (once) every check-in (30 seconds by default), when a tamper
alarm is triggered or cleared, and when a data is forwarded.
Green indicates communication is good and data is forwarded
OK to the next Router.
Red indicates communication failure and data is NOT forwarded
to the next Router.
Serial Fail-Good: The two sets of lights closest to the Reset Button
indicate RS232 communication status with the Central Server. These set
of lights flash briefly (once) when data is transmitted via an external
RS232 device (i.e. Quick Look™) to the Central Server.
Green indicates that the external RS232 device loopback is
detected.
Red indicates that the external RS232 device loopback is not
NOTE: A configuration map or floor plan of the facility is pre-determined
with most Quick Response Premiere Wireless Call Systems. Please rely
on the configuration map or floor plan in conjunction with the information
provided below to determine Router placement.
To determine placement of routers:
1. The first Router's location is in the proximity of the Gateway as
specified on the floor plan. Using a Pendant that is in Survey Mode,
walk a distance from the Gateway until the light on the Pendant starts
blinking red. This indicates that the Router is out of range of the
Gateway.
2. Walk back into range.
3. Mount Router within range of the Gateway and near a 110 VAC wall
outlet or at the termination point from the central power supply.
Repeat steps 1 and 2 to mount subsequent Routers.
NOTE: If using a 9V power supply, wiring from the power supply can
be routed inside the wall or (if preferred) mount the raceway for
containing and concealing the wires leading from the underside of the
Router down to the 110 VAC wall outlet.
4. For wall placement, the Router should not be located over a stud and
should be at a distance of one foot from the bottom of the enclosure
to the ceiling.
5. For ceiling placement, the Router should mounted down the center of
the hallway or centered in a room. Its orientation can be parallel or
perpendicular to the walls of the hallway. For optimal location, mount
Router in the center of the ceiling tile.
6. Using the rear plate of the Router as a template, place it level against
the intended mounting surface and mark the location of the two
mounting holes. If the wiring from the wall outlet power supply or
central power supply exits from the intended mounting surface then
locate the lower right corner of the rear plate (corner is cut out) over
the exit hole.
7. Center punch each hole and drill in two nylon wall anchors (included).
If the Router is located on a concrete mounting surface then you must
use the wall anchors designed for use with concrete (not included). If
the Router is to be installed on drop ceiling tiles use the threaded
drywall anchor taking care to not damage ceiling tile during installation
process.
8. Once the wiring has been run to the location of the Router attach the
power supply wires to the terminal block in the corner of the Router. If
using a central power supply up to seven (7) Routers may be daisy
chained by terminating the next Router to the second terminal block.
The minimum field wire size to be employed shall be 18 AWG (0.36
mm2).
9. Insure that the wires are pulled tight through the wire tie wrap and cut
excess.
10. Make certain that the Router's ON/Off switch is in the ON position.
After the ON/Off switch is turned to the ON position, the LED’s at the
bottom of the device should flicker. If they do not flicker then turn the
switch to the OFF position and then turn it back ON.
11. Place the rear plate of the Router into the recess on the back of the
Router enclosure.
12. Place the Router over the wall anchors in alignment with the holes in
Quick Look
the enclosure and insert two screws (included). Verify Router is firmly
secured to the intended mounting surface to prevent the device from
falling.
13. For extended range Routers make certain that the external antenna
points over the top edge of the enclosure. Any other orientation will
reduce device performance.
14. If raceway is being used now is the time to apply it.
15. If the power is supplied by a wall outlet power supply, then plug in the
power supply.
16. If the power supply has a mounting tab, secure it to the outlet using
the screw provided.
17. Repeat the above steps for the remaining Routers.
NOTE: When configuring a multi-story facility the Routers should be
placed directly above one another as much as possible to provide
accurate location even in non-location required facilities.
To test the Routers:
1. For each router use a pendant that is in Survey Mode to test
reception. Walk to the far reaches of adjacent rooms and covered
area to ensure that acceptable coverage is achieved.
2. For Quick Look displays, verify location data and alarm information
appears on the display when an alarm is generated.
A Quick Response Premiere Router can be connected to a wireless Quick
Look Display or High Visibility Display so that when an alarm is sent from
the Server to the Router, the wireless display shows the type of alarm,
location data and transceiver number. As new alarms occur, they appear
immediately; the display then begins scrolling through each active alarm.
The Quick Look Display also acts as an integral part of the back-up
reflector mode. This reflector mode functionally allows the Quick
Response Premiere network to take over the responsibility of distributing
alarm information (transceiver number only) to the Quick Look Display in
the event of an inoperable Server. In reflector mode it will display device
names and the nearest Router that received the alarm.
Quick Looks are supervised; a routine signal is sent from each Quick Look
Display and if the signal is not received by the system, a Device Fault
event is generated in the Event List at the computer.
WARNING: Quick Look Displays should not be added to multiple units.
Since Routers are used to determine location, inaccurate location data
could result.
The location data displayed depends on the configuration. If a
Gateway/Router is assigned to a room, the Quick Look displays the room
and unit data. If the Router/Gateway is assigned only to a unit and not
individual rooms, the nearest location data is displayed.
WARNING: It is crucial that the following steps be carried out in the order
listed. If the display is not powered and connected properly to the Router
when the Router is initially powered on, the display will not function.
To install the Quick Look display:
1. Mount the High Visibility Display in the desired location, near a 110
VAC wall outlet. Use the following steps for mounting the High
Visibility Display as a wall-mount or counter-mount display.
2. Attach mounting brackets 281/8 inches apart, in desired location. If
mounting in drywall, screw anchors must be used.
3. Once brackets are in place, put the display between the two brackets
and secure it to the brackets with the two thumb screws provided.
4. To maximize visibility, first adjust the tilt of the display and then tighten
the thumb screws.
5. Plug the 7 VAC 4.8A power supply into the High Visibility Display and

The 32 Channel Controller consists of a Quick Response Premiere
Controller
Router, a 32 Channel Controller relay board and up to 16 bi-color Dome
Lights.
The 32 Channel Controllers are supervised; a routine signal is sent from
each Quick Response Premiere Router and if the signal is not received by
the system, a Device Fault event is generated in the Event List at the
computer.
Central Power Supply (CPS)
The Central Power Supply is used to connect the 32 Channel Controller
and Dome Lights to a single power source. The Central Power Supply
eliminates the need to run 120VAC to each detection zone. Note that the
Router is powered by the 32 Channel Controller.
Refer to the Class II Central Power Supply Installation Guide (0510-1036)
for detailed information on installing the Central Power Supply.
WARNING: It is crucial that the following steps be carried out in the order
listed. If the 32 Channel Controller is not powered and connected properly
to the Router when the router is initially powered on, the controller will not
function. The 32 Channel Controller must be set to its assigned channel
prior to assigning devices.
