Pillow speaker not included with HealtView TV.

The TV is capable of being controlled by a single- wire, serial data signal. This is a Zenith patented technology and is being implemented by certain brands of “smart” pillow speakers, such as Curbell’s “GEN-II” models.

Pillow Speaker Interface

This connector furnishes three control lines and an audio output. A patient-pendant remote control, or entertainment audio and nurse call system may be connected here. All lines are isolated from the AC power line and earth ground. (Opto-isolators isolate the control lines, and a transformer isolates the audio. There are no relays or inductive components in the control lines).

Pin no.

Controlling the TV with mechanical switches

Pin 4 (common) is momentarily connected to pin 1, 3, or 6 via push-action switches to control On/Off and Channel Up/Down. These pins are at +13 volts DC (when measured from pin 4) with the switches open. Current draw is 8 mA when a switch is closed. (This operation using the 5-Wire Interface except that only +7 volts DC was supplied and current draw was only 2.5 mA).

Impedance to earth ground is a 8.2- meg resistor

in parallel with a 1000 pf capacitor.

Isolated audio output. Nominal 14-ohm source
