2.2NurseCall N46 Wall Transmitter
The NurseCall N46 Wall Transmitter is a multifunction terminal radio transmitter, designed for
patients and nursing staff to make an emergency call, summon assistance or cancel a call
directly in the patient’s room. It is part of a NurseCall system, and is easily expandable.
In the NurseCall system, the NurseCall N46 Wall Transmitter allows the resident of a home or
the patient of a clinic to easily alert the care personnel if needed. The patient simply has to
push the large red button. The system is then able to control and to monitor the progress of
the care personnel.
The alarm and event transmission is performed by radio. There is no need for a wired
connection between the NurseCall N46 Wall Transmitter and the NurseCall Main Unit, this
makes the system installation easy and allows great mobility.
Depending on the model, two relay outputs are available and may be used to connect alarm
and staff presence indicators such as, for instance, the signal lamps installed above the door.
Two LED signal lamps allow the progress to be monitored on the device.
