System Overview and Introduction
Tek-CARE®550 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Tek-CARE®550 Wireless Nurse Call System is a complete UL® 1069 and UL® 2560 |
||||
|
|
|
|
|
® |
|
listed system designed to provide a range of communication options and system |
||||
|
functions to meet the needs of modern hospitals and care centers. The Tek-CARE 550 |
||||
|
system is designed for reliability, ease of installation, and ease of use. It can be equipped |
||||
|
with a variety of transmitters and receivers to allow communication between patients |
||||
|
and staff as well as communication within the facility staff by use of e-mail, text |
||||
|
messaging, and pagers. |
|
|
|
|
|
The Tek-CARE®550 system is comprised of the Tek-BRIDGE, a master station computer |
||||
|
that runs the monitoring and configuration software, remote Event Monitor software |
||||
|
installed on facility PCs, Gateways and Repeaters which transmit messages from the |
||||
|
system devices to the Tek-BRIDGE, and system devices such as pendant transmitters, |
||||
|
wireless dome lights, pull-cord and pushbutton room stations, and staff pagers. The |
||||
|

® |
|
|
|
|
systemiscompletelycustomizabletosuittheneedsofthefacilityitserves.Inaddition |
||||
|
|
|
|
® |
|
|
to Tek-CARE 550 devices, the Tek-CARE 550 system also supports the full range of FA |
||||
|
(Frequency Agile) and ES (EchoStream) devices used with the Tek-CARE 500 system. |
||||
|
The Tek-CARE®550 system can also be fully integrated with other TekTone® systems |
||||
|
and many other building systems such as fire alarm and security systems. |
|
|||
Tek-CARE®500 |
|
|
|||
|
The Tek-CARE®500 Wireless Emergency Call System |
®offers advanced security and |
|||
|
safety features for senior living facilities. The Tek-CARE 500 system®can communicate |
||||
|
with both®FA and ES devices, but cannot interface with Tek-CARE 550 devices. The |
||||
|
Tek-CARE 500 system offers a wide range of device choices including window and |
||||
|
|
® |
® |
|
|
|
door alarms, smoke alarms, and motion detectors as well as call buttons and pendant |
||||
|
transmitters. As with the Tek-CARE 550 system, the Tek-CARE 500 system also uses |
||||
|
a Tek-BRIDGE master station computer to run the Event Monitor and configuration |
||||
|
software. |
|
|
|
|
Installation of the both the Tek-CARE®550 and Tek-CARE®500 systems is designed to be simple and straightforward, and depending on the size of the facility can normally be accomplished by a single individual or a small team.

System Installation and Setup
TekTone® Wireless System SetupThe TekOverview-BRIDGE™ master station must be dedicated to the Tek-CARE® system. Due to the critical nature of the system, do not run applications other than those associated with the Tek-CARE® system on the Tek-BRIDGE™. Since the functions of the system are critical, all power saving features of the Tek-BRIDGE™ have been disabled.
The software suite used on the Tek-BRIDGE™ includes two applications-
, used to set up the system and make programming changes to theexistingLS450 systemConfigTooland the LS576 Event Monitor and Reporti g System, used to monitor all
calls and perform some system programming functions. The Event Monitor software enables hospital staff to watch call activity, monitor system status, review resident information, and much more.
