StandDown
SD-1 Wheelchair/Seat Monitoring System
INSTRUCTIONS – QUICK START GUIDE
StandDown
is
a
completely
monitoring system.
There are no plugs to connect,
wires to route, or alert units to locate. Simply position
the sensing pad, seat patient, and move the tamper
resistant slide selector to the ON position.
SYSTEM PLACEMENT
Locate Pad on seat while allowing the Monitoring
Controls (see Fig. B) to slide between the seat and
backrest. The small StandDown logo should now be in
the front/right corner of the wheelchair seat. See Fig. A.
MONITORING
From the back of the wheelchair, with patient seated,
move the Slide Selector from the OFF position to the
ON position. Monitoring will automatically begin. See
Fig. B for Slide Selector location.
The system will not alarm as long as the patient remains
seated.
If the patient attempts to stand, alarm will
sound. If the patient sits down again, alarm will stop,
the system will automatically reset, and monitoring will
resume.
If a patient is being escorted from the wheelchair to a
temporary non-wheelchair activity such as toilet duties
or shower, the slide selector may be moved to the
PAUSE position.
In PAUSE position, StandDown emits a steady low-
volume sound indicating that the system is "standing by"
and neither monitoring (ON) or completely out-of-service
(OFF). Pause setting will remind a caregiver to move
the Slide Selector back to ON position when the patient

END MONITORING SESSION
Locate slide selector and move it to the OFF position.
NURSE CALL SYSTEM MONITORING
Remote monitoring is possible when StandDown is
connected to a nurse call station using the optional
SD-NC cable. See Fig C.
StandDown will now continue to provide local alarm
while simultaneously sending an alarm signal to
central monitoring personnel.
If another device occupies the only available port on a
wall station, the optional SD-NCA adapter can be used
to enable dual inputs. See Accessories.
ALARM VOLUME
Alarm volume is adjustable. The volume adjustment
screw is located on the control flap between PAUSE
and the audio speaker.
Using a small flat tip screwdriver, gently turn the screw
lockwise to decrease volume or counterclockwise to
c
increase volume. See Fig. D
