Lost Signal Alert
o The sensor pad is within 30 foot unobstructed range of the monitor.
o The transmitter in pocket has not been turned o and the red status in-use light flashes approximately every 30 seconds.
o The patient is not lying or sitting directly on the sensor transmitter.
o The transmitter and transmitter antenna are set up properly as illustrated in figure 2.
o Rubber bands and clips are used to secure the bed sensor pad to the bed so the sensor is properly positioned under
the buttocks area and the transmitter hangs o the side of mattress, preferably on the same side of bed/room as the monitor.
o No walls or metal objects are between the pad and monitor.
NOTE: Best performance and range is achieved by proper placement of transmitter and antenna in sensor pocket as
illustrated in figure 2 and the monitor is installed facing the transmitter as close together as possible (see figure 3). Many
structural factors like metal, body mass, and other construction materials can, and in some cases, dramatically reduce
range and performance. As a final check, try moving the monitor closer to the pad and re-test.
