Preface
Overview
This guide provides detailed information about installing the components,
wiring the DuoLink to the exit controller, testing for RF interference, and
component specifications.
The 9450 DuoLink Exit Alarm Receiver is a component of the Exit Alarm
System which is part of the overall 9450 System. The 9450 System
monitors doors, elevators, hallways, and stairwells, to assist staff in
monitoring patients in a facility. A small transmitter is placed on the ankle
or the wrist of a patient. If a transmitter is detected in an Exit Alarm Zone,
an alarm sounds at the exit. Depending on which equipment is installed,
the 9450 System can automatically lock doors, deactivate elevators, and
activate remote cameras.
WARNING: The 9450 System is designed and intended to work in
conjunction with a facility’s overall patient security program, including
reasonable operating policies and procedures. The 9450 System, by itself,
cannot prevent the mismatch, abduction or elopement of patients.
Intended
Audience
The 9450 DuoLink Exit Alarm Receiver Installation Guide is intended for
those who install and configure the Exit Alarm System.
