Shared features and functions

ColorTouch monitor

Both the staff console and the annunciator display information on a
touch screen. You can work with nurse calls and perform other
functions by lightly touching command buttons on the screen.
Staff consoles and annunciators sound a tone to alert you when
new calls are received and when reminders expire. The volume can
be adjusted and the alert tone can be silenced temporarily — the
tone will be automatically re-energized when the next call comes in
or when a preset maximum time elapses, whichever comes first.
While you can change the alert tone volume, it is not possible to turn
alert tones off.
The staff console and the annunciator only annunciate calls from
covered duty areas. If not configured to cover any duty areas, no
calls will be annunciated.

Screens displayed on staff consoles and annunciators

Staff consoles and annunciators display five separate pages or
screens — the Call screen, Audio screen, Reminders screen, Room
List, and Admin screen. This section shows the types of information
displayed on each screen, how to find the screen you need, and how
to use the command buttons and other controls found on each.
The Call screen
The Call screen lists incoming calls in order of priority and is the
default screen. It is used for monitoring and answering nurse calls.
