NEVER use if the monitor cannot be securely mounted to the wheelchair, headboard, or door bracket.POWERING THE MONITORUNPACKING THE MONITOR TURNING THE MONITOR OFFThe CSM-BC400 is battery powered, with the ability to plug into AC power using the CSM-AC AC power adaptor/cord (sold separately) to minimize battery drain/replacement.Installation of four AA alkaline batteries is required, even when using the AC power connection. The batteries serve as a backup in the event of a power outage.NOTE: Once batteries are installed, the monitor needs to be either syncronized to a wireless pad (and kept within approximately 30 feet of each other) or have a corded pad plugged into it within five minutes, otherwise a PAD/SIGNAL LOST notification will occur.When you want to place the monitor out of use for any given period of time, remove all cords from the monitor and press the RESET button to cancel the alarm. The monitor will automatically be placed in a sleep modeNOTE: The pad will remain programmed to the monitor unless it is either sychronized to another pad or the monitor has a corded pad plugged into it. Therefore, if placing the monitor out of service for extended periods, removal of the batteries is recommended. This optional setting prevents the monitor from alarming for 30 seconds when pressing the Reset button while, for example, the caregiver takes the patient out of bed.1. Turn the PAUSE ON/OFF switch located in the battery compartment to ON to enable the monitor to operate the Pause feature. 2. The patient/resident should be positioned on the pad or have the seat belt fastened3. Press the RESET button to prevent it from alarming for 30 seconds. The LCD will read “STANDBY XX SEC.” indicating the number of seconds remaining in the pause mode. 4. During the 30 second Pause Mode period, the patient/resident may be removed from the pad or the seat belt can be unfastened without activating an alarm. If the patient/resident is placed back on the pad or the seat belt is fastened, the monitor will reactivate.NOTE: If the sensor cord is removed during the pause mode, the monitor will alarm when the 30 seconds have expired (no cord removal alarm will occur with the floor mat/pad).5. When the 30 seconds have expired:• If the patient/resident has not been placed back on the pad/seat belt refastened, the monitor will go into a sleep mode.• If the patient/resident has been placed back on the pad/seat belt refastened, the monitor system will reactivate.NOTE: When the PAUSE switch is in the OFF position, the RESET button will only serve to cancel the alarm.This optional setting allows the caregiver to place the monitor in a tamper resistant mode by turning the switch on left side of monitor from KEY OFF to KEY ON. When in the KEY ON mode:• The Reset/Pause, Volume, Delay, and Tone controls on the monitor will not function unless first overridden by the CareSense Key. This is accomplished by positioning the KEY icon on CareSense Key over the matching KEY icon on the top right face of the monitor (see illustration below) and holding it over the icon until one of the control buttons is pressed.• If the alarm has been activated, the alarm may be canceled as soon as the CareSense Key is positioned over the KEY icon on the monitor (there’s no need to press RESET button to cancel the alarm).NOTE: When the switch is in the KEY OFF position, the Reset/Pause, Volume, Delay, and Tone controls on the monitor are fully operational (no caregiver key is required to override).When connected to the monitor, a Nurse Call Cord allows the patient/resident to activate the monitor alarm and, if Nurse Call is connected, place a call to the Nurse’s Station (works with “normally open” nurse call systems only).• 1⁄4" call cord plug is inserted into the monitor receptacle labeled “CALL CORD”• The monitor alarms only when the call cord button is depressed (the LCD will read “NURSCALL ALARM”)– when the button is released, the monitor alarm will cease. Nurse Call, if connected, will remain on until it is reset at the patient station. • If the Call Cord is removed from the monitor, the monitor will alarm, and a call will be placed to the Nurse’s Station (if connected). The LCD will read “CALLCORD LOST”. The alarm may be cancelled by pressing the RESET button or reinserting the Call Cord jack into the monitor. Nurse call, if connected, will remain on until reset.CALL CORD USEWIRELESS CHAIR AND BED PAD USECORDED CHAIR AND BED PAD USEThis section applies to the following wireless chair and bed pads:• CSP-B45-TW10• CSP-B365-TW10• CSP-B365-TW20• CSP-C45-TW10• CSP-C365-TW10Activate/Install the TransmitterThe pad must first be connected to a wireless transmitter (CSP-TW-TX1), and the transmitter must be turned on. 1.
