The Sonelco P6000 is an advanced system for patient-nurse communication. It is flexible and scalable, from those with the most basic facilities to those requiring multiple functions. In all cases, the system provides audible and visual patient call signalling. When a call is made, the room and bed (or bathroom) numbers appear in the control station display and an acoustic signal is heard, in accordance with hospital standard VDE0834. Also, for the module PH6011, a light appears in the corridor outside the room: red (for a normal call), red and white (a bath call) or flashing red and green (emergency...

The possible room configurations and their benefits are shown below:

1. Voice communication systems between the nurse control station and the rooms, and between the nurse in a room and other rooms. Functions: Setting presence, making of cancelling calls. Normal call This call is made by pressing the red button on PCH6030 call modules, the pear type pushbuttons PH6031 or the nurse presence modules PCH6020/ PCH6025. When a call is made, the LED incorporated in the module from which the call was made becomes reassuringly brighter. If the module has a display (PCH6025) in the room, the call is shown on it. When a call is made, a continuous red light is seen on the...

Calls can be cancelled from the floor control station (PH6000), any room with set presence (with the PCH6021 module) or from the actual room where the call was made (PCH6020 or PCH6025). cancelling from any room with a nurse present When answering a room call by intercom, it can be put on hold, and a reminder set to attend to it later. This is done via the PH6000 control station by pressing the green button. Ifanswered from a room with set presence, using the module PCH6021, the reminder is set by pressing the green presence key (on the PCH6020 or PCH6025 module). cancelling from the room itself...

This call is made by pulling the PCH6040 module cord. When making the call, the module LED lights up reassuringly. If the display module (PCH6025) is available in the room, the call is shown on it. This call takes priority over normal and disconnection calls. When making the call, a continuous red and white light is seen on the electronic module in the corridor (PH6011). An intermittent beeping sound and a signal on the display are emitted from the PH6000 control station, indicating the room from where the call was made and its type ■ Rooms with set presence The patient call also causes a beeping...

This call can be made from any module in the room or bathroom, providing the nurse’s presence is acknowledged (by pressing the green button). If the module has a display (PCH6025) in the room, the call type is shown on it. This call takes priority over all others, and a flashing red light is seen in the corridor electronic module (PH6011) after it is made. The green presence light is continuous, as well as the white light if the call was made from the bathroom. The PH6000 floor control point emits a slow beeping sound (with a frequency in accordance with the standard VDE 0834) and a signal in...

The patient call also causes a beeping noise in the rooms where a nurse set presence (with the green button pressed), and this will be shown as a green light on the electronic module PH6011 in the corridor. The beep is heard through the room speaker of a PCH6022 system. Additionally, the red LED on a PCH6020 module lights up with greater intensity, and the call is also shown in the room on a PCH6025 module display, if fitted. The call can only be cancelled from the bathroom or room from where the call was made if a PCH6050 module is fitted. Emergency or help call This call can be made from any...
