Introduction
This guide provides detailed information about the hardware components and devices of the Quick Response
Premiere Wireless Call System. It provides instructions about installation as well as specific requirements for
mounting components that make up the system. The Quick Response Premiere Wireless Call System is to be
professionally installed.
The Quick Response Premiere Wireless Call System immediately notifies staff when a resident requires
attention, and provides details that are essential in responding quickly and competently to a resident’s needs.
The Quick Response Premiere Wireless Call System offers a variety of devices, each of which interfaces with
the Central Server to ensure that when a resident is in need, staff is alerted.
A Quick Response Premiere device may be worn by a resident; it could be mounted to a wall where it is easy to
access; it could even be used in conjunction with other systems such as the Wanderer Monitoring System (exit
controllers and electromagnetic door locks).
Devices send data to the Central Server on a regular basis. When an event occurs that warrants a response, staff
is alerted by an audible alarm from the Central Server, a message is displayed on-screen, and the designated
staff is summoned to respond to the situation. Staff can also be notified of an event via pager or phone.
