Modes of Operation

This mode occurs as a result of the absence of electricity and no activity has been
detected from the control panels for 5 minutes . Also, after 1 hour with no activity
when the bed is on DC power, the touch screen turns off and the sleep mode
occurs .
The Alarm Mode before Dead Mode occurs if, while the system is in the Sleep
Mode, the Bed Exit is activated and if there is no activity in regards to the control
panels of the bed for a period of 4 hours or the batteries are weak .
The Dead Mode is activated if, while the bed is in the Sleep Mode, the Bed Exit is
not activated and there is no activity on the control panels for a period of 1 hour
or the batteries are weak . This mode is also activated after 15 minutes if, while the
system is in the Alarm Mode before Dead Mode, the power is not back and there is
no activity on the control panels .
This is activated under the following conditions:
1 . The power is back or if any sign of activity is detected back on the control
panels .
2 . The touch screen is no longer in the calibration state .
If the power supply is back (that is, the bed is plugged back to the wall socket or
the power outage is over), the system will exit the Dead Mode to go to the Power Up
Mode if the batteries no longer have power and need to be recharged . The system
then goes to the Initialization Mode which goes back to the Normal Mode .
