1.1 General

teleCARE IP is a Local Area Network (LAN) based Emergency Call System for assisted living and independent living facilities. The LAN/WLAN infrastructure is used to communicate the information generated in the emergency call system, such as calls for help or assistance, staff presence, emergency alarms, technical alarms, etc. The IP integration is at room level with at least one IP port per room.

teleCARE IP operates on a Ethernet LAN based on 10/100 BaseT, using a Cat 5 (or higher) structured wiring for 100 BaseT. The network shall be a dedicated network.

The teleCARE IP system is modular, scalable and built around the Room Controller (NIRC). Power is supplied using an external 24Vdc power supply. teleCARE IP peripherals are connected to the room controller by a digital room bus. Each room controller includes 3 room buses with 8 addresses per bus.

The modularity of teleCARE IP makes it easy to extend and add new functions to already installed systems. The LAN technology allows easy installation of new room controllers and peripherals in order to extend the existing teleCARE IP system.

1.2 Installation and Commissioning

The installation and commissioning of teleCARE IP should only be undertaken by qualified technicians and carried out in accordance with all regulations. Only original teleCARE IP parts and components are to be used in any teleCARE IP installation. In order for the system to function properly these parts must be installed in accordance with the appropriate teleCARE IP installation instructions.

The teleCARE IP equipment should only be installed when the building work is completed and when the environment is clean, dry and totally weatherproof. All control and distribution equipment must be accessible for commissioning and servicing.

The acceptable environmental conditions for the teleCARE IP system, associated power supplies and related equipment are all listed systems and components and are in compliance with the safety requirements of ANSI/UL 2560 Standard for Safety, Emergency Call Systems for Assisted Living and

Independent Living Facilities and CAN/CSA No. 205-12, Signal Equipment.

Room Bus Cable Considerations

Max. Cable

Length

98.4ft (30m)

It is important to consider the factors of cable length and load when installing the room bus for the following reasons:

10 FEB 2014 / Ver A 8

Installation Guide teleCARE IP TD 93021US Rev A

• The resistance of the wires in the room bus cable increases with the length and this causes the voltage to decrease progressively along the length of the cable.

• The room bus voltage also drops in proportion to the load.

• The effect of “cross-talk” increases as the cable length increases.

Room Bus Power Considerations

The room bus power supply output from the room controller is limited to 300mA per room

bus but the maximum acceptable load on the room bus decreases significantly as the distance from the room controller increases due to the resistance of the room bus cable.

Room Bus Voltage Considerations

The power supply to the room bus at the output from the room controller is >5.5Vdc without load but this will drop as the room bus cable length and/or the load increases. The minimum acceptable voltage at any point on the room bus cable is 4.5Vdc.

Room Bus Cable Length and Power Limitations

The IP Room Controller offers up to three room buses. The load of any room bus must not exceed

300mA and the minimum acceptable voltage anywhere along the room bus is 4.5 volts.

When UTP category 5 cable (or higher) is used the length of any room bus cable should not exceed

98.4ft (30m), irrespective of the load. Below 98.4ft (30m), the maximum acceptable length of the room bus cable depends on the load (including third-party devices).

Installation Guide teleCARE IP TD 93021US Rev A

4 System Power

The teleCARE IP system power supply shall be sourced from an external 24Vdc power supply, utilizing a dedicated 2-wire power distribution bus. The external power requirement for teleCARE IP is 24Vdc, with an acceptable range of 21.6Vdc to 26.4Vdc.

WARNING: Use of any Power Supply other than those which are specified in this manual violates the UL 2560 listing.

4.1 24Vdc / 3 Amp Power Supply (Standard)

The 24Vdc / 3 Amp Power Supply, Ascom part number APS5000, must be used with the teleCARE IP system and can be purchased through Ascom.

The teleCARE IP Standard Power Supply shall be used to power the teleCARE IP system. This power supply converts 115Vac / 60Hz input power to a 24Vdc / 3 Amp, Class 2 Rated regulated output.

There is a built-in charger to charge sealed lead acid batteries. The batteries provide the Secondary

Power to the teleCARE IP system in the event of mains AC power failure. There is an automatic switchover to the batteries when input AC power fails. During switchover, there is zero voltage drop at the power output. The power output fuse is rated at 15A/32Vdc.

WARNING:

• Do not use the Standard Power Supply for installations that require seismic considerations. Use the

24Vdc / 8 Amp Power Supply (Seismic) described in section 4.2 instead.

• Make certain that the AC circuit breaker is off before making any wiring connections between the circuit breaker and the power supply.

• Always de-energize the power supply prior to servicing.

• When servicing, the AC mains circuit breaker should be in the off position and locked out to prevent accidental activation.

• When necessary, always replace the fuse with the same type and rating (15A/32Vdc).

• This power supply is intended for indoor use only. Do not expose the unit to rain or moisture.

• After installation or servicing make sure that the cover is secured with the provided Key Lock.

4.1.1 Power Supply (Standard) Installation

The teleCARE IP Standard Power Supply is provided with an Installation Guide that is packaged with the unit. The unit is intended for wall mounting at a fixed location. Follow the instructions in the

Installation Guide for mounting the power supply to a wall.

Note: Power distribution is best organized with the power supply unit located as close as possible to the rooms which it powers. This minimizes the voltage drop caused by the length of the power supply wires and the load of the powered teleCARE IP system devices.

For setup and configuration, refer to the illustrations in the Installation Guide to identify the switch which must be set for 24Vdc operation, and to identify the terminals for connecting the power supply board to the batteries and teleCARE IP system.

Re-energize the power supply.

4.2.2 Power Supply (Seismic) Operation and Maintenance

The HPFF8 Power Supply should be tested at least once a year for proper operation. Under normal load conditions, the DC output voltage should be checked for proper voltage level, which is 24Vdc for the teleCARE IP system.

Under normal load conditions, check that the battery is fully charged. Check for the specified voltage

(24Vdc) at both the battery terminals and power supply board terminals marked [+BAT-] to ensure there is no break in the battery connection wires.

Note:

• The maximum charging current under discharge is 0.75 amperes.

• Expected battery life is 5 years. However, it is recommended to change the batteries in 4 years, or less if needed.

The HPFF8 provides supervised functions of the field wiring for the following adverse conditions:

• Field-wiring fault (short or open) on the teleCARE IP power bus.

• AC failure or brownout at the power supply.

• Battery failure (no battery or battery voltage less than 20.5Vdc) condition at the power supply.

• Battery charger failure on the power supply.

• Ground fault condition.

• +/- Reference Resistor

There are 8 LEDs on the Control Circuit Board for indicating normal and trouble operation of the

HPFF8 Power Supply (see Figure 1.1 in the HPFF8 Installation Manual.) When viewed from top to bottom, the LEDs operate as follows:

Note:

Relates to the A+/A- terminals on TB4. Not used in teleCARE IP.

A battery fail indication can occur if there was an AC failure within the first 24 hours after initial power-up and the battery voltage had been discharged to a voltage of

20.5Vdc or less. The BAT TRBL LED may also illuminate steady, after a certain delay during charging, to indicate the battery was discharged and may not support full load. The delay is based on operational conditions (time remaining in the first 24 hours and time in stand-by) and will automatically reset if the battery charging has time to reach its full float voltage.

SIG4 TRBL through SIG1 TRBL associate with TB4 terminals 4L1/4L2 through 1L1/1L2 respectively.

The HPFF8 has Trouble Memory for the supervised outputs. This is useful as an aide in knowing when past troubles have occurred and if intermittent problems are present on the SIG4 through SIG1 output circuits.

If all four SIG TRBL LEDs are illuminated steady, check if the Reference Resistor is missing or doesn’t match the EOL resistor used to terminate the teleCARE IP Power

Bus. Otherwise, each power circuit probably has a trouble.

To restore a SIG4 – SIG1 blinking LED to normal, press SW2 on the Control Circuit

Board or, power cycle the HPFF8 OFF/ON.

5 Control Equipment

This section describes the installation instructions for the following products:

• “Room Controller” (details on page 19)

• “Blank Front Cover for the Room Controller” (details on page 22)

• “Corridor Lamp (NICL)” (details on page 49)

• “System Manager (NISM2)” (details on page 57)

5.1 Preparation

It is important to refer to the following teleCARE IP control module installation instructions for complete electrical connection and assembly details before starting the installation.

The Ingress Protection of the control modules is IP40, therefore the areas in which the teleCARE equipment is to be installed must be clean, dry and weatherproof.

The walls on which the control modules are to be installed should be finished (painted, wall papered etc.) before the control module is installed.

It is important to have the appropriate length of free cable pulled out at every location where the control module is to be installed. The length of stripped cable and length of exposed copper wire must conform to the relevant installation instructions. Electrical power to the equipment must be off before connecting any devices.

5.2 Room Controller

5.2.1 NIRC

Note: Except when specifically mentioned otherwise, the references to “room controller” used in this document are applicable to both the NIRC and NIRC3.

The Room Controller (NIRC) has been tested and found to comply with the emission levels for a Class

B device as described in EN55022:2010.

The input power for the NIRC shall be supplied over an external 24Vdc power supply bus,. The external power supply input requirement is 24Vdc ± 10%. The power input has an on-board, selfresetting fuse.

Each room bus has four wires, consisting of: data, voice, power (5.5Vdc) and ground (0V). The room bus power output is used for the power supply to the connected peripheral device. Each room bus power output has a self-resetting 650mA fuse.

The NIRC has a 6-pole output connector for an external corridor lamp with 4 LEDs. These outputs are in parallel to the NIRC’s on-board LED connectors. Additionally, the NIRC has an internal buzzer for optional audible signaling of calls and faults.

The NIRC can support up to 3 slave corridor lamps, however, the NIRC is capable of providing the power supply for no more than 2 slave corridor lamps. Each room bus can accept one corridor lamp and each corridor lamp has the fixed room bus address 5.

The NIRC can accommodate 4 LED Lamp Boards (NILDs), enabling the NIRC to be used as a corridor lamp. The NIRC also has the provisions to provide 24Vdc power for up to two teleCARE IP Corridor

Lamps (NICLs).

When an NICL data bus is connected to one of the three NIRC room buses, it becomes an active corridor lamp that operates independently of the NIRC. In this configuration, the NICL takes up fixed

10 FEB 2014 / Ver A 19

Installation Guide teleCARE IP TD 93021US Rev A

Room Bus Address 5 on the NIRC bus. When connected to the NIRC External Corridor Lamp Outputs bus, an NICL becomes a passive corridor lamp and the LEDs operate in parallel with the NIRC display lamps.

5.2.2 NIRC3

Warning

This is a class A product. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures.

Improved technology gives the NICR3 more speed and additional functionality. This includes the addition of a fourth room bus and the integrated Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability.

The NIRC3 can be extended with an optional voice piggyback module (NIVP) to include speech and with an optional transceiver module (NIRX) for wireless nurse call functionality.

The NIRC3 is compatible with all the existing teleCARE IP peripherals except for the corridor lamp

(NICL) which cannot be used together with the NIRC3.

IMPORTANT: The NIRC3 is not compatible with the corridor lamp (NICL). The corridor lamp

(NICL2) must be used when connected to an NIRC3 room bus. Therefore it is necessary to replace the NICL with an NICL2 whenever you replace an NIRC with an NIRC3.

5.2.3 Room Bus Addresses

Each room bus of the NIRC supports eight addresses. The lowest four addresses (0 - 3) are for teleCARE IP peripherals and the highest four address (4 - 7) are dedicated for devices, such as the duty selector, card reader and the corridor lamp.

The total room bus address applications are summarized in the following table:

5.2.10 Mounting the Housing without a Back box

The housing can be mounted on a flat surface, without a back box, using four suitable screws in the outer fixing holes, as shown in the illustration below. When the NIRC housing is without a back box the cables should enter and leave the housing through the two knock-outs in the sides of the housing.

Cable

Figure 20. Mounting the NIRC housing without a back box

Caution: Do not distort the NIRC housing when it is mounted with or without a back box. To prevent distortion only mount the NIRC housing on a smooth, level surface and do not overtighten the fixing screws! If the housing is distorted the top section will not fit properly and could fall off.

5.3 Preparing the Room Bus and Power Cables

It is important to prepare the cables appropriately and to guide the wires correctly inside the housing in order to avoid the wires pressing on the printed circuit board which could result in damage and also prevent the top section from closing properly.

The following instructions apply to the room bus cables, the power supply cable and the corridor lamp cables.

5.3.1 Stripping the Outer Jacket of the Cables

The first step is to strip the outer jacket of the cables to a length of 6.0in (150mm), then position the cable in the back box so that only the stripped wires enter the NIRC housing.

10 FEB 2014 / Ver A 26

Installation Guide teleCARE IP TD 93021US Rev A

Figure 21. Stripping and positioning the cables for the NIRC

Caution: Each room bus requires four wires. If the cable contains more than four wires the excess wires should be carefully stowed in the back box, away from the printed circuit board and other components to avoid electrical faults and safety problems.

10 FEB 2014 / Ver A 99

Installation Guide teleCARE IP TD 93021US Rev A

Figure 131. Card reader front and back view

The NICR allows staff members to register their presence in a room or to open an electrically locked door through a contactless proximity authorized smart card.

The NICR should be mounted in an accessible location (usually next to the entrance door of the room) so that the smart card can be held close to the reader when the staff member enters or leaves the room.

The NICR will read the smart card when it is at a distance of up to 0.8in (20mm) in front of the card reader. When a card is detected a buzzer in the NICR sounds.

The NICR has a red LED and a green LED which shine through the cover plate. The green LED shows for two seconds when an authorized card is detected, the red LED shows for two seconds when an unauthorized card is detected, and flashes for two seconds when the card reader is unconfigured. A short flash repeated every second on the red LED indicates that an error has been detected by the watchdog.

The NICR offers two auxiliary functions: a relay circuit for switching an external device, such as an electrically operated door lock, and a connection for monitoring, such as door open detection. The relay connection is a “normally open” potential-free contact and the monitoring connections consist of ground (GND) and an input line (IN).

A tamper alarm switch is mounted on the NICR printed circuit board detects when the card reader is removed from the backplate. The system can be configured, using the System Manager, to generate an alarm call when the tamper switch is operated.

The NICR is available in gray or white and it requires a single backplate which must be ordered separately. A spacer with installation kit is also available for surface mounting the switch module (see

6.3.2, Surface Mounting Spacer on page 63 for details).

8 Wireless Functionality

8.1 General

teleCARE IP with wireless functionality is intended for use in nursing homes and in assisted living facilities.

teleCARE IP is able to support wireless functionality through the NICR3 teleCARE IP room controller combined with the NIRX transceiver, which is piggy-back mounted on the circuit board of the NIRC3.

Figure 173. Wireless teleCARE IP and hard-wired teleCARE IP

The wireless call peripherals consist of the NIFX fixed transceiver, the NITX mobile transceiver and an optional low frequency beacon NILF.

The NIFX fixed wireless transceiver is a three-button wall mounted switch module. It comes as a socket version used for the connection of a patient handset or equipped with a pull-cord. Both variants of the

NIFX include a 125 kHz LF receiver and an NIRX 916 to 921 MHz Class 1 transceiver which is piggyback mounted on the circuit board of the NIFX. The fixed wireless transceiver switch modules can be powered by two AA disposable alkaline batteries, or connected to an external 12 - 24Vdc power supply.

The NITX mobile call transceiver can be attached to a wrist strap, or to a neck pendant. It can also be used as a mobile alarm transmitter connected to third party equipment. The NITX is powered by an internal three volt replaceable lithium battery. It includes a 916 to 921 MHz transceiver and a 125 kHz

LF receiver for receiving the location update information from LF beacons.

The NILF low frequency beacon includes a 125 kHz transmitter and can be extended with the piggyback mounted NIRX 916 to 921 MHz transceiver. The LF Beacon NILF is contained in a white plastic enclosure with a slim design that is suitable for surface mounting on walls or at a door post. The NILF can be powered by three C size disposable alkaline batteries, or connected to an external 24Vdc power supply.

8.2 Principle of the teleCARE IP with Wireless Functionality

The system is configured using the teleCARE IP System Manager - NISM2. The wireless server is a Unite application on the NISM2 serving as the central controller for all wireless devices in the teleCARE IP system with wireless functionality.

The wireless server has similar functions to those found in the teleCARE IP room controller, such as event handling, assignment handling and linking, with additional functions such as signal strength comparison. The main difference between the wireless server and the teleCARE IP room controller is that the wireless server controls all wireless devices in the system, whereas each room controller is responsible for only the devices which are hard-wired to it.

The NIRC3 room controller requires the piggy-back mounted NIRX transceiver module to give it wireless compatibility. When combined with the NIRX the room controller also serves as a base station and portal for the wireless devices.

The NIFX fixed transceiver has a piggy-back mounted NIRX transceiver, whereas the NITX mobile transceiver has its’ own internal transceiver.

Installation Guide teleCARE IP TD 93021US Rev A

8.2.1 Location Based Wireless Nurse Call Using LF Beacons

The addition of the NILF low frequency beacons gives location based wireless functionality available including access control. The NILF will send out its ID, including location information, at regular intervals using a low frequency 125 kHz signal that will be picked up by the wireless transceiver modules that pass by the NILF.

Figure 175. Location based wireless functionality

The range of an LF beacon is adjustable and can be up to approximately 6.5 feet (2 meters) with battery power and approximately 10 feet (3 meters) with external power.

When a wireless device comes within range of a passive NILF location beacon it will receive the beacon

ID with the location information. It then stores the location as the last known location. The stored last known location will be added to the next event that is transmitted from the wireless device, like a button press, battery low alarm, etc.

When a wireless device comes within range of an active NILF location beacon, it sends a location update message to the wireless server. In addition, based on the received location information, the wireless server can check to see if the person carrying the wireless device is allowed to access that location. Doors can be opened or stay closed depending on the access rights. Automatic alarms can be generated when a person leaves or enters a certain location.

Whenever a call is made from a wireless module the location will be transmitted to the wireless server, when the wireless module is not in range of an LF beacon the last two known locations will be transmitted.

10 FEB 2014 / Ver A 128

Installation Guide teleCARE IP TD 93021US Rev A

8.2.2 Wireless Nurse Call with Speech

Wireless transceivers can be used to generate calls to notify the staff that help is needed. These devices don't support speech themselves. To be able to set up a speech session with a person that initiated a wireless nurse call, the wired teleCARE IP speech modules are required.

To be able to support speech for wireless call, a phone number will be included in the message towards the messaging devices, including speech options. When selecting the IM option “speech” on the messaging device, a speech session will be started with the wired peripheral that is configured with that phone number.

For wireless speech, hard-wired speech modules are required at all the locations that contain wireless transceivers that are configured to use static locations. In static location mode, calls from the wireless transceiver are always linked to the location that is selected in the configuration of the wireless transceiver.

When the wireless device is configured to use dynamic locations, speech modules are also required at, or close to the locations that are covered by location beacons NILF. When in range of a location beacon the wireless device will store the location information which will be used the next time a call is made.

Figure 176. Wireless nurse call example with speech

This example consists of two room controllers (NIRC3) with transceiver module (NIRX) mounted for the wireless communication and three room controllers (NIRC) with five corridor lamps from an existing teleCARE IP configuration with speech. Each location has a doorside module with speech unit and a passive location beacon. The two main entry doors to the corridor are controlled by an active location beacon with access control unit.

Wireless speech will be based on the location of the wireless transceiver.

For wireless transceivers that are configured to use a static location, the phone number of the hardwired teleCARE IP speech module at the location that is assigned to the wireless transceiver will always be used in the IM “speech” option.

For wireless transceivers that are configured to use dynamic locations, the phone number for the IM

“speech” option will be automatically updated when the wireless transceiver moves between locations that are covered by active location beacons NILF.

When using passive location beacons, the IM options will not be updated when moving between passive locations, and the speech location will be the location where the wireless call was first made.

8.3.4 NILF Low Frequency Beacon

The low frequency beacon NILF is contained in a white plastic enclosure with a slim design that is suitable for surface mounting on walls or at a door post. The NILF is powered by three 1.5V “C” (R14) alkaline batteries. In situations where battery power is not suitable a 24Vdc external power supply can be used.

An optional transceiver module NIRX can be mounted on the NILF circuit board used to monitor the

NILF through a heartbeat signal, The NIRX will send out a tamper alarm upon front cover removal detection or send a low battery alarm.

Figure 189. NILF - Low Frequency Beacon

The NILF operates at 125 kHz producing a spherical magnetic field with a range of up to 6.5 feet (2 meters) when battery powered or 10 feet (3 meters) when powered from an auxiliary 24Vdc power supply. The magnetic field strength can be adjusted to suit the requirements. A master/slave configuration can be used to extend the range of the LF field.

DIP switches are used to set the 12bit ID code, to select the transmission rate allowing a suitable interval between 0.1 - 2s and to set the output power, ranging from 0.30m to 3m.

Note: Setting the beacon mode to “Active” will automatically set the most significant bit

(bit 11) of NILF ID, therefore the ID range for active location beacons will be from 800 to

FFF, see “NILF ID” on page 145 .

Passive Location Beacon

Wireless devices that enter the LF field of a passive location beacon will receive a location update message that is stored locally by the wireless device as the last known location. When a call is made the last known location will be added to the message for linking and messaging.

Active Location Beacon

Wireless devices that enter the LF field of an active location beacon will be triggered to send out the location update message directly to the wireless server whenever the wireless device enters or leaves an LF field. Depending on the system configuration the location update messages can be used for access control, wanderer control and automatic location updates when moving from one active location to the other.

Placing the Batteries

The NILF requires three 1.5V “C” (R14) alkaline batteries. The battery voltage is continually monitored. A red LED will indicate low battery status (1 flash per minute) and tamper alarm

(continuous rapid flashing). Under normal circumstances the battery life is minimum one year.

Figure 205. Placing the three 1.5V “C” (R14) alkaline batteries

Note: Optionally an NIRX transceiver module can be mounted on the LF location beacon -

NILF for actively monitoring the state of the NILF like tamper and low battery alarm conditions.
