1Gustav
Gustav is a RFID beacon sending a specific position-ID to the surrounding
by a magnetic field. The coverage area is very distinct making it possible to
distinguish between different beacons. Different spots inside the building
can therefore have a position-ID assigned to it and passing radio trigger like
CareTech Elvis equipped with RFID logic can pick up the locations and
forward them to the system when necessary.
The main applications:
•Position indication
1
– A series of Gustav units is placed at different locations
inside a building. Each with unique position-ID (001-899) transferring it to
the surroundings with a coverage area that is not overlapping any others.
Elvis is passing trough the building and receives the positions. It is now up to
the radio trigger to forward the information to the system and this will be
done when an alarm is triggered by the user. Giving the personnel the
location of the last spot that the care taker has passed.
•Passage detection
2
– Gustav is mounted in a passage (normally a door). The
position-ID of Gustav is set between 900 and 999 which indicate a non
allowed passage. Gustav can be set to send the position constantly or first
when it is activated by an input or by a magnetic switch. When Elvis receives
the position is it up to the alarm trigger to forward the information to the
system or the carephone. This feature can be set enabled or disabled in the
alarm trigger making it possible for the personnel to carry alarm triggers
without generating false alarms.
Gustav’s features:
•2 programmable inputs for activation of RFID-beacon.
•1 programmable magnetic switch for activation of RFID-beacon.
•1 programmable switch for temporary deactivation.
•RS-485 interface for programming
•Range up to 1.8m
•Wide power supply voltage range 10.5 – 27 VDC.

Position indication requires System 5000 with Omni as a master.

The position-ID is only available when using Omni as a master. 950i/carephone will only
receive a door alarm (type 28) without position data.
