Staff/duty station lights

Two white "front light" lights, one for each button or vertical pair of
buttons, are present on Smart Staff/Duty Stations to illuminate the
buttons in dim light conditions.
Additional lights indicate specific states:
• Each staff/duty station button has an associated light.
• Call lights show the status of nurse call requests from a station.
• One bi-color Status light on the staff/duty station signals audio
connection, staff follow, presence, privacy, or error.
The following section describes how the system responds when a
call is placed by pushing a staff/duty station command button.
Individual button lights
• A steady red button light indicates that the button was pressed
and that the following actions, specific to each button, have
taken place:
• For the Code, Emerg, and Assist button lights, a nurse call was
placed.
• For the Privacy button, privacy mode was put into effect.
• The Cancel light flashes when Cancel is pressed to remove a
"stuck" presence.
• All lights in slow flash indicates that the station is in cleaning
mode.
• All lights in fast flash indicates a no communications error.
Call status light
• A steady red Call status light indicates that a staff member has
placed a nurse call by pressing the Code, Emerg, or Assist
button on the staff/duty station, or on any station associated
with the staff/duty station.
• A flashing red Call status light indicates an alarm condition.
Status light
• A steady red Status light indicates that a staff member has
registered presence.
• A flashing red Status light indicates a staff follow call. The flash
rate is based on the priority of the call.
• A fast flashing red Status light indicates an alarm condition; the
flash rate indicates the error type. (See "Resolving staff station
problems" on page 115.
• A steady green Status light indicates an ongoing audio
connection.
