supervision, and network management solutions for wireless patient medical data collection systems.
®
The Beacon module is installed with a NaviCare
wireless RF signals for use in determining distance of nearby medical devices. The Beacon module is powered
by 15Vdc, which can be supplied from the Wall Hub using a two-conductor, 13.12 foot (4m) cable connected
between the two devices. This cable is included with the Beacon module. If needed, two Beacon modules can
be installed and powered by the same Wall Hub. The Beacon module can also be powered by a 15Vdc wall
power supply.

Precautions
Safety Precautions
PRELIMINARY DRAFT - FOR REVIEW ONLY
Precautions
This document uses the following warning and caution conventions:
Caution Cautions remind the reader to be careful. They alert readers to situations where there is a chance
that the reader might perform an action that cannot be undone, might receive unexpected results, o r
might lose data. Cautions contain an explanation of why the action is potentially problematic.
Warning Warnings alert the r eader to proceed with extreme care. They alert readers to situations where there
is a chance that the reader might do something that can result in personal injury or equipment
damage. Warnings contain an explanation of why the action is potentially dangerous.
Safety Precautions
The following items are warnings of a general nature relating to the installation and start-up of the Beacon
module. Be sure to heed these warnings to prevent personal injury or equipment damage.
Warning • A 15Vdc circuit powers the Beacon. Disconnect po wer before installation or servicing to prevent
electrical shock or equipment damage.
• Make all connections in accordance with national and local electrical codes. Use copper
conductors only.
• To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, install in a controlled environment relatively free
of contaminants.
• This device is only intended for use as a monitoring and control device. To prevent data loss or
equipment damage, do not use it for any other purpose.
• The Beacon contains no user serviceable parts. Do not disassemble the Beacon module.
Static Discharge Precautions
Static charges produce voltages high enough to damage electronic components. The microprocessors and
associated circuitry within a Beacon module are sensitive to static discharge. Follow these precautions when
installing, servicing, or operating the system:
Caution • Work in a static-free area.
• Discharge any static electricity you may have accumulated. Discharge static electricity by
touching a known, securely grounded object.
•
Do not handle printed circuit boards (PCBs) without proper protection against static discharge.
Use a wrist strap when handling PCBs. The wrist strap clamp must be secured to earth ground.

Connect Beacon power cable
After mounting the bracket, but before re-installing the Beacon module, install Beacon power cable from Wall
Hub (or optional wall power supply) to Beacon mounting bracket.
Warning • Input voltage is 15Vdc. Disconnect AC power to the Wall Hub (or optional wall power supply)
before installation to prevent electrical shock or equipment damage.
• Beacon can be powered by 15Vdc from either the Wall Hub or the optional wall power supply
(not both). Do not connect 15Vdc from both devices.

Procedure 2 Wiring power cable to Beacon mounting bracket.
Wiring Details
Step 1
Step 2
Turn off power to Wall Hub (or optional 15Vdc wall power supply).
If Beacon is powered by Wall Hub, connect one end of Beacon power cable to W all Hub 15Vdc power
output connector on Wall hub power distribution board. Secure with a cable tie inside Wall Hub (see
bottom of Figure 5).
Step 3
Feed other end of Beacon power cable (or wall power supply cable) through wiring access hole at
bottom of Beacon bracket (see Figure 4 on page 6).
Step 4
Step 5
Connect Beacon power cable (or wall power supply cable) to Beacon power jack (see Figure 5 ).
Insert Beacon module into right side of mounting bracket and slide module to the left until tab lock
engages.
Step 6
Verify connections.
Wiring Details
See Figure 1 on page 2 to locate connectors and other components on the Beacon module.
Communications Wiring
The Beacon uses an RS-232 DB9 serial port located on the bottom of the module for configuration only. Refer
to the NaviCare
communications and configure the Beacon module.
®
BioMed Configuration Station User Guide for instructions on how to connect serial
Power Wiring
The Beacon is powered by the Wall Hub’s 15Vdc power supply or by the optional 15Vdc wall power supply.
The acceptable range for DC input is from 10Vdc to 16Vdc.
Note The W all Hub has an On/Off switch located on the power distribution board, near the two connectors to
power Beacon modules. This switch
must be ON for the Wall Hub to operate—it does not switch
power to Beacon modules. To remove 15Vdc power to only a Beacon, you can unplug the Beacon power
cable from the connector on the Wall Hub’s power distribution board (see Figure 5 on page 7).
Power Up and Initial Checkout
Following all mounting and wiring, perform the following:
Procedure 3 Initial power up and checkout
Step 1
Step 2
Apply power to the Beacon by energizing the circuit powering the Wall Hub (or optional wall power
supply).
Verify that the green Status LED on the Beacon module illuminates.

About LEDs
Cleaning
PRELIMINARY DRAFT - FOR REVIEW ONLY
About LEDs
The Beacon provides a single Status LED which is located on the upper left corner of the front of the module.
The status LED should remain lit whenever the Beacon is powered, or else blinking during a communications
burst. If the status LED does not light while power is applied, contact System Engineering for technical support.
Maintaining the Beacon
This section provides information on the following topics:
• Cleaning
• Replacement Parts
• Returning a Defective Unit
Cleaning
Special care must be taken when cleaning a Beacon module to prevent damage to the unit.
Caution Follow these instructions to avoid damage to the Beacon module:
• Do not spray any cleaning solution directly onto the component. Doing so can cause excess
solution to leak into and damage the component. Spray the cleaner only to lightly dampen a
cloth and use the cloth to clean the component.
• Do not use harsh cleaners, solvents, or detergents. Doing so may damage the component.
• Use a soft lint-free cloth to clean the enclosures of all components.
• Spray a mild household disinfectant cleaner on the cloth to help remove stubborn soil and
stains.
• In the unlikely event that a Beacon module or cable is contaminated internally by liquids or
fluids, do not attempt to clean the component. Contact your Tridium representative for
replacement parts.
Replacement Parts
There are no user serviceable or replacement parts in the Beacon. Do not disassemble the Beacon module. A
new unit is the only replacement option.
New Replacement Unit
T o replace an entire unit, order and install a new Beacon. If the faulty Beacon is still in warranty , you can receive
credit by returning it to Tridium. Be sure to contact Tridium for a return authorization (RA) number before
shipping an item for return credit. See “Returning a Defective Unit,” page 10, for more details.
Note Before ordering a new Beacon, it is strongly recommended that you contact your normal technical
support resource to eliminate the possibility of a software issue or mis-configuration problem.
