Digimat Wireless Nurse Call Systems, has been designed and manufactured
for the purpose of informing the personals working in hospitals, health care

the cord handle. All made calls are displayed as room numbers on the LED
Display (dashboard). The created calls are listed in order with the last call shown
in large size on the home screen and the other calls shown in small size on the
side screen. In case of another emergency call comes, this call will be displayed
on the main screen and the old last call goes to the side screen at the top of the
other calls.
When the nurse call button is pressed, the door mounted lamp lights up red

warning is produced. The nurse sees either the red light on the warning lamp or
the number of the room that made the call and goes to handle the situation.

bedhead call unit, this way the red light of the door lamp and the related display
leds turns to green indicating that there is a nurse in the room. After the nurse
finishes with the patient she should press the green tick once more. By doing that
