Telligence Patient-Staff Communication System Operation Manual
Most peripheral stations in patient rooms are intended for use by
the facility's staff only, although they may operate in concert with
patient stations. Peripheral stations can also be located in staff
rooms, operating in standalone mode or in conjunction with Smart
Staff/Duty Stations. Stations intended for staff use only include
presence stations, code blue stations, staff emergency stations, call
stations, remote cancel stations, and auxiliary input stations.

Code blue stations

The HC-PB2-CODE code blue station lets staff immediately alert
other staff about extreme emergency situations. Most often found in
intensive care units, emergency care rooms, and other patient care
rooms, the station may also be located in staff-only rooms, if only as
a precautionary measure for facility staff.
Figure 38: Code blue station (shown without pull cord)
The code blue station can be a standalone station, or can be
associated (and have its buttons linked) with either a patient station
or a staff/duty station. A code blue station has no audio capability,
and cannot be used to communicate with staff members at staff
consoles or annunciators.
An HC-PB2-CALLR call station may be reconfigured as a code blue
station if a cardiac arrest clock must be started, or if any other
device must be started or stopped for emergency purposes, by
pressing the station's Code button (or pulling the station's optional
pull cord).
1. Press the Code button on the code blue station (or pull the
optional cord) to send a code blue call to staff consoles and
annunciators.
