Drive 13601 Manual

Application

Alarm relies on infrared technology to detect motion. Alarm emits an invisible fan-shaped beam that will cover an area
approximately 60° horizontal and 6° vertical. Unit can be used as an alarm or warning device.

Installation

1. Select proper mounting location based on area to be detected.
2. Carefully spread bracket open and remove unit (Figure 1).
3. Slide battery cover off and insert one 9-Volt battery, included. Ensure
that battery contacts are securely snapped onto battery. Allow 20
seconds after battery installation before use.
4. Replace battery cover and secure unit in bracket. Orientate unit in
bracket so that when unit is mounted, power switch faces away from
patient (if possible) for easy access by staff or caregiver.
5. Position bracket for desired detection area and securely mount to wall,
headboard, or magnetic bracket. Magnetic bracket is included when
alarm with bed rail bracket is purchased. Swivel bracket is included for
wall or headboard mounting with Alarm Only. Mounting screws not
included (Figure 2 & 3).
6. Unit will only detect motion on side of bed it is mounted on. When
vertically at side of bed, projected beam is perpendicular to the floor.
When mounted above headboard horizontally, projected beam is
parallel to mattress.
7. Perform test after installation to ensure proper function. Unit
should chime/alarm when motion occurs in the desired detection area.
Re-adjust position of unit if necessary to obtain proper When power is
switched on, unit enters 10 second exit delay mode. When testing, wait
10 seconds before attempting to test for alarm/chime signal.
8. Detection beam extends up to 24 feet from unit. As false alarms can be
triggered by caregivers or other patient, privacy curtains can be utilized
to inhibit beam from extending beyond desired detection area.
Example: When locating unit at headboard, place curtain at foot of bed.

To Test

• Test unit prior to every use to ensure proper function and battery power.
Turn unit on and select ALARM or CHIME mode. When power is switched
on, unit enters 10 second exit delay mode. Wait 10 seconds before
attempting to test for ALARM/CHIME signal.
• If ALARM/CHIME fails to sound and there are no obstructions in front of
lens, replace battery immediately.
• Waving hand in front of the unit may not consistently activate alarm/
chime. To accurately test, install product and simulate actual use. Alarm
should sound when exiting bed.

Care

Alarm Mode:
a. Turn unit on and select "ALARM" position. There is a
10 second exit delay to allow staff or caregiver to exit
the room without activating alarm.
b. Once an object has penetrated the detector field,
unit will alarm for 30 seconds from initial detection
of motion and then automatically reset.
c. As long as sensor continues to detect motion in the
detector field, unit will alarm.
Care & Maintenance
Check unit before each use to ensure function. If motion fails to activate unit, replace battery.
If unit fails to work with new battery, check and clean battery terminals.
