1. Features and Introduction
Your Universal Sensor
The Universal Sensor works as an interface between wired electrical devices and
Tunstall telecare enabled systems. These may include an existing intruder alarm
system, natural gas detector, carbon monoxide detector or pressure mat.
Programmed using the built-in buttons and LCD screen the Universal Sensor is easily
set to send a message to the home unit identifying which type of device it is linked
to. When the attached device is triggered the Universal Sensor sends the appropriate
message, providing the operator at the response centre with sufficient information
to respond accordingly.
The Universal Sensor can also receive inputs from normally open or normally-closed
contacts enabling it to be connected to a wide range of devices.
Responsibility for suitability and relevant standards compliance lies with the Service
Provider.

The Universal Sensor can be configured to transmit to a Tunstall Telecare enabled
solution as the following device types:
Virtual Bed The Virtual Bed sensor sends an event call if a client
has got in or out of bed (or a chair).
Door Contact Normally used with the magnetic contact and the
built in Reed Switch; this simulates the event call
when the door is opened and closed.
Enuresis Sensor When connected to an appropriate Enuresis Sensor
(available separately) if moisture is detected the
Universal Sensor will communicate with the Tunstall
Lifeline or Telecare Overlay System to enable care to
be delivered quickly.
Pendant The Universal Sensor will simulate the call from a
personal alarm trigger. This is used to enable third
party devices to send a personal trigger alert to the
Tunstall Lifeline or Telecare Overlay system.
Epilepsy Sensor When connected to an appropriate Epilepsy Sensor
(available separately) once movement is detected
the Universal Sensor will communicate with the
Tunstall Lifeline or Telecare Overlay System to
enable care to be delivered quickly.
CO Detector The Universal Sensor can be configured to work with
3rd party CO Detectors meaning when Carbon
Monoxide is detected the Universal Sensor will
communicate with the Tunstall Lifeline or Telecare
Overlay System to enable care to be delivered
quickly.
Door Guard Like the Door Contact mode, but an alarm is raised
when the door is opened. A carer can use the built-in
pause monitoring facility to enter and exit the
property without raising an alarm call.
Gas Detector The Universal Sensor can be configured to work with
3rd party Gas Detectors meaning when Natural Gas is
detected the Universal Sensor will communicate
with the Tunstall Lifeline or Telecare Overlay System
to enable care to be delivered quickly.
Smoke Detector The Universal Sensor can be configured to work with
3rd party Smoke Detectors meaning when Smoke
with the dwelling is detected the Universal Sensor
will communicate with the Tunstall Lifeline or
14
Telecare Overlay System to enable care to be
delivered quickly.
Bed Occupancy Sensor The bed/chair absence sensor generates an alarm if
a client has got out of bed (or chair) during a
monitoring time window (e.g.
night)
The bed/chair absence sensor works like the
conventional bed/chair occupancy sensor,
generating an alarm if a client has got out of bed (or
chair) during a monitoring time window (e.g.
night) for longer than a considered safe period of
time (configurable). When the client gets out of the
bed/chair (during the monitoring period), the timer
is started. If the timer expires before the client has
got back into the bed/chair then a Bed/Chair
Absence event is generated. However, the sensor
also provides the ability to extend the time period if
user activity is detected elsewhere in the property
e.g. client has gone downstairs to make a drink,
therefore reducing false calls. The home unit
supports two Bed/Chair Absence sensors. It is also
possible to set an alarm to be raised if the user does
not go to bed or fails to get up out of bed at a
configurable time.
15
Advanced Mode

Sensor is functioning. When activated the Universal Sensor sends
a signal to the home unit every 4 hours. If the Universal Sensor is
then taken out of the property or has its battery removed, these
signals will not be received, and the Tunstall Home Unit will raise
an alert at the monitoring centre if configured to do so. If the
Universal sensor is used in AP mode, the device will need to be
deleted from the system if it is removed from the property,
otherwise alarms will be raised.
Status – Battery
Using the “Status” menu it is possible to check the status of the internal battery. The
battery will either report “Normal” or “Low”. When “Low” is displayed the battery
should be replaced and at this stage the Universal Sensor will have sent an ALB alarm

The bed pad should be positioned: -
• Across the bed
• At around 1/3 of the distance between the head and foot of the bed.
• On a firm base – if the bed frame is not solid, then the sensor pad should be
fitted on a suitable sheet of plywood or similar
For a single bed, a single bed sensing panel should be used. If the person sleeps alone
in a double bed, two bed sensing panels should be used. One panel should be placed
on either side of the bed, each as described above.
If the person sleeps in a double bed with someone else, then only one bed-sensing
panel should be used, on the side of the bed that the person sleeps on. Note that in
this case the bed sensor cannot be relied upon to work correctly as correct operation
will rely on the other person in the bed not encroaching into the area of the bed
monitored by the bed pad.
