Installing the Informer-Mate™System On a Chair
Chair setup
1. Place the chair sensor pad on
the seat portion of the chair
(Figure 6). An additional
cushion may be used on top of
the pad for patient or resident
comfort. If you use an
additional cushion, test the
system by pressing firmly on
the top of both cushions.
2. Mount the control unit on the
chair in a convenient location
with the mounting clip or
mounting strap provided.
3. Insert the sensor pad cable into the sensor pad receptacle on the
control unit.
4. If you are using the Informer-Mate™Deluxe system, set the desired
alarm tone by sliding the volume switch to position 1, 2, 3 or 4. If
connecting a nurse call cable to the deluxe unit, the alarm, when
sounding, will automatically be sent to the nurse call unit and the
local alarm will be disabled.
5. Test the Informer-Mate™monitoring system before each use and
inspect the pads and monitor regularly to make sure they are not
damaged. Test the system by pressing firmly on the pad for 3
seconds. When you remove pressure, the alarm should sound. Reset
the alarm using the 2-button reset.
