1: General Information
The Responder® 5 (R5) system is a highly configurable and flexible Healthcare
Communication System. The system is configured using the graphically-based R5Ware
Windows application suite.
As those familiar with such systems will note, R5 employs a simplified, intuitive wiring
strategy, allowing a single multi-drop Category 5 cable to distribute power, data, and voice
to Consoles, Corridor Lights, Domeless Controllers, Staff, Duty, Patient, and other
Stations. Cable and conduit costs are, therefore, much less than previous Responder®
generations.
Scope of this Document
Read this document if your tasks include system planning/design, installation, or

maintenance/troubleshooting.
Page 5 of 55
Alerts, Precautions, and System Limitations

All head-end components should be mounted in either the 351102 or NC2828 system
cabinets. Although these Responder® 5 system components will operate outside of these
enclosures, the installation will not meet UL 1069 or FCC performance standards.
The 351102 and NC2828 system cabinets provide protection from physical damage when
equipment is located within equipment rooms and allow for continuous uninterrupted nurse
call operation.
The 351102 and NC2828 system cabinets and head-end components include air ventilation
holes for proper cooling while in operation. Mount the components in locations with
sufficient air flow, in rooms with ambient temperature range between 32˚F (0˚C) and 122˚F
(50˚C). Preferred ambient temperature is 20˚C - 30˚C.
Since ventilation holes must be kept open and do not protect from accidental fluid sprays,
consider location of 351102 and NC2828 system cabinets housing head-end equipment away
from water and sewer pipes, but not out of range of fire protection nozzles should they be
present.
Observe ―Handle with Care‖, ―Caution‖ and ―Lift Properly‖ warnings when installing system
cabinets and head-end components since these units can be somewhat heavy and large.
Dropping these components could damage the components or possibly injure the installation
personal.
All system modules must be connected to earth ground (through a terminal lug provided or
case mounting screw and ―GREEN‖ ground wire) for proper ESD and RF noise protection.
Use only the AC power connection cables supplied with the 351003 for proper AC line and
ground connections to the power supply.
Be sure the 351003 battery wire connection lugs are properly seated on the battery terminals
and the battery switch is in the ―ON‖ position for proper operation of the battery charging
circuit.
Allow the battery to charge for at least 14 hours before it can be assumed that the 351003 will
have sufficient battery back-up charge to continue Nurse Call operation through an AC power
outage event. Full charge should not be assumed until after two full charge/no-charge cycles
of approximately 64 hours.
351003 Power Supply back-up batteries should be replaced every five (5) years.
Dispose of batteries removed after replacement using proper recycle procedures for the
batteries. 351003 contain sealed lead acid batteries.
Wiring directions are included within these installation manuals showing proper interconnects
between head-end components and other Responder® 5 system devices. Please follow closely
and observe all terminal polarity marks and color codes as directed to prevent possible
damage to component from reverse connection of voltage and signals. Although the system
components include a level of self protection to pass short miss-wiring events, unnecessary
stress from careless wiring errors can shorten the operating life of some components.

USB Diagnostics Connection

The USB Diagnostics port is used to connect to any PC running R5WARE. Once
connected in this manner, R5WARE will provide diagnostic details regarding the single
attached BRC. Should you wish to get diagnostic details (and/or engage in setup
management) for multiple BRCs on the closed R5 network, you must connect the
R5WARE PC to the R5 network via any Ethernet port on any BRC.
To Get Diagnostic Details for a Single BRC:

 Run a standard USB cable (USB ―B‖ to ―A‖) from the BRC USB DIAG port (USB
―B‖) to any available USB port (USB ―A‖) on the R5WARE PC. This is for low-level
firmware queries only which are not normally necessary during an install.
To Get Diagnostic Details and Download Configuration for a Single or Multiple

Networked BRCs:
 Run a standard (straight through) Ethernet patch cable from the any available BRC
Ethernet port to the NIC port on the laptop you are using to run R5WARE.
Ethernet Connections
The BRC provides 4 (four) Ethernet ports. The ports can be used to interconnect BRCs; to
connect 351200 Consoles, 351300 Staff Terminals, a 351004 8-port Ethernet switch, a
351006 Fiber Optic Adapter Module, and/or to connect to a facility‘s network (via the
integrated Ethernet switch controller). Connection to Ethernet devices is made using
standard RJ45-terminated CAT5 or CAT6 UTP cable. The Ethernet ports also supply
power to connected 351200 Consoles, 351300 Staff Terminals, and 351006 Fiber Optic
Adapter Modules.
You cannot use a hub or splitter to split an Ethernet connection. A 351004 8-port Switch is
required if you must connect to more than four (4) Ethernet devices from any given BRC.
Ethernet Cabling
All Ethernet connections are limited to 100 meters or 330 feet. A pair of 351006 Fiber
Optic Adapter Modules—connected by multi-mode duplex LC fiber optic cable—can be
used to increase run lengths to 5000 feet depending on fiber selection. Ethernet cables
should be wired according to the T568A standard:

Page 13 of 55
L-Net Connections
The L-Net is a multi-drop network. It communicates at 1.5Mbps via dual 768Kbps data
pairs. Each L-Net supports six (6) full duplex audio channels. The L-Net supports up to 96
Corridor Lights and Domeless Controllers. Each of its four (4) ports can support any
combination of 24 Corridor Lights and Domeless Controllers.
Each of the four (4) L-Net cable runs on a BRC cannot exceed 3000 feet. The L-Net can
only be split into a ―T‖ configuration by using a 350004 L-Net Hub. Each 350004 L-Net
hub reduces the length of the L-Net by 420 feet.
L-Net Cabling
L-Net cables should be wired according to the T568A standard:

Figure 5: T568A Wiring Colors (L-Net Ports)
L-Net Data, Audio, Power

The BRC always transmits control data and digital audio to those Corridor Lights and
Domeless Controllers connected to its L-Net ports. When supplemental power is fed from
the 351003 Power Supply to the L-Net power terminals (see Figure 6: L-Net Power
Connection), the BRC also supplies these units with power:
Figure 6: L-Net Power Connection
When L-Net supplemental power is present, each BRC will provide sufficient power for a
maximum of eight (8) typically configured rooms; however, the presence of multiple
stations in any given room may reduce the maximum total support to six (6) rooms.
Page 14 of 55
Battery Backup
 The BRC‘s RAM—which stores active call, and similar information—is backed up by
a replaceable high energy 3V/280mAh coin-type lithium battery (Rauland BD0105 or
CR2430), which should be replaced every seven (7) years. The original battery
installation date is provided on the cover of the BRC:
Figure 7: Battery Detail
To Replace the Battery:

1 Slide the battery to the right to remove the existing battery.
Figure 8: Backup Battery Compartment
2 Replace battery with fresh Rauland BD0105 or commonly available CR2430.

 Polarity matters; make sure the ―+‖ faces up (towards you).
3 Update the label on the device to show a new battery replacement date.
Getting it Ready
Once you‘ve made the appropriate connections, prepare the BRC unit as follows:
1 Connect a laptop bearing the R5WARE Configuration application to the BRC via an
Ethernet port.
2 Launch the R5WARE Configurator.
3 Access the Head End Devices screen (Screens | Head End Devices):
Page 15 of 55
Figure 9: R5Ware Configurator (Head End Devices)
4 Enter IP and MAC addresses.

 Use the right arrow key to move your cursor between entry groups:
 R5Ware v1.05 (and later versions) makes three (3) digits at each position optional. If
necessary, add leading and/or trailing zeros. To use ―192.168.6.90,‖ for instance,
enter ―192.168.006.090‖ or type ―192.168.6.90‖.
 Alternatively, you may position the cursor in the MAC address entry field and use a
bar code reader to read the label affixed to the BRC.
 Putting the IP assignments in the BRC requires running the DHCP server application
which will read the MACID – IP address info from a file provided by the GUI
configurator and write the info in the BRC flash. Consult the Responder® 5 System
Design Guide (KI-2234) and the Responder® 5 Configuration Guide (KI-2237) for
more details.
Confirming it Works

Other Things to Know/Keep in Mind

 Each system supports a maximum of 96 BRCs. Each 351002 Network Adapter Module
is equivalent to a BRC and must be subtracted from the 96 maximum.
 Each BRC can support a maximum of 96 (4 ports x 24) Corridor Lights or Domeless
Controllers.
 Each Branch Regional Controller supports up to 16 Consoles.
 Each Branch Regional Controller supports up to 80 Staff Terminals (16 with coverage)
 The combined length of the four L-Net ports on a single BRC cannot exceed 3000 feet.
 The L-Net can only be split into a T configuration by using a 350004 L-Net Hub; each
350004 L-Net hub reduces the length of the L-Net by 420 feet.
 Connect an earth ground wire (#16 - #14) from a mounting screw to the earth ground
stud or screw in the system. The 351102 Wall mounting Equipment Cabinet provides
four (4) locations for this along the middle mounting rail.
351002 Network Adapter Module (NAM)

The 351002 Network Adapter Module is the network controller that allows an R5 to
interconnect and communicate with Responder IV nurse call system.
NAM Mounting
The NAM is 6.60‖ wide, 11.50‖ high, and 0.90‖ deep and can be mounted using a 351100
The 351002 Network Adapter Module makes up to four (4) possible types of connection:
1 Power (36 Volt DC): required connection from the 351003 Power Supply.
ONLY connect 36 Volts DC wires to NAM power connector terminals marked
―MAIN‖ (DO NOT connect anything to terminals marked ―L-NET‖).
2 DIAG (USB Diagnostics): optional connection to a PC — used for system
troubleshooting, and/or performing routine diagnostics.
Page 17 of 55
On the NAM the USB port is used to perform system diagnostics—querying devices,
for example; on the Switch, the USB port is used for management functions—
changing VLAN settings, turning specific ports on/off, etc.
3 Ethernet (E-Net1-4): connection to BRCs.
Ethernet is the message protocol between other Branch Regional Controllers and the
Network Adapter Module. Four (4) RJ-45 Ethernet ports are positioned at the top of
the unit. The Ethernet length is limited to the typical 330 feet per segment, but can be
extended with a 351004 Ethernet Switch and/or 351006 Fiber Optic Adapter Module.
The Ethernet ports are also the primary connection for the R5WARE PC to configure
the Nurse Call system or if necessary download new firmware.
4 X-Bus (Single RJ-45 with 8 Pin Splitter): connection to a Responder IV system.
The X-Bus maintains the message-passing protocol between the Responder IV nurse
call system via one RJ-45 connector on the bottom of the unit. The X-Bus is a Rauland
proprietary data and digital audio messaging protocol. Responder IV system X-Bus
Cable is usually terminated with a RJ-11 4 Pin Modular Plug that will fit into the
center 4 pins of the 8 pin Tee-Tap connector provided with the NAM.

a Responder IV system. The length of the cable connected to the X-Bus port must be
factored into the total X-Bus length limitation of 1400 feet when Long X-Bus option is
selected.
Fiber Optic Adapter Modules and cable cannot be used to extend the X-Bus cable beyond the
1400 foot total length (Long X-Bus) limitation.
Page 20 of 55
Responder IV system X-Bus cables should be wired according to the RIV 4 Pin RJ11
Plug standard listed in RIV cable guide and below:

Connect the NAM module to the other X-Bus devices using CAT5 UTP cable. Use the
provided X-Bus Splitter (SF0720) to connect the X-Bus to other Responder IV (NCGCM,
NCDATA).
Figure 15: X-Bus Splitter (8-pin version)
NOTE: The RIV X-Bus 4 Pin RJ11 cable connector will align itself into the center 4 pins
of the 8 Pin Splitter and latch in place properly.
Be sure to install the provided end of line terminating resistors (VP1391) at each end of the
X-Bus. The NAM may be at the beginning or end of the X-Bus – with one X-Bus cable
and a terminating resistor plugged into the splitter. Or the NAM may be between other X-
Bus devices – with two X-Bus cables plugged into the splitter and no terminating resistor.
Once you‘ve connected X-Bus devices using the splitter, make sure each RIV X-Bus
device is operating correctly. (Check the X-Bus Status LED on all X-Bus devices.)
Battery Backup
The NAM‘s RAM—which stores active call, and similar information—is backed up by a
replaceable high energy 3V/280mAh coin-type lithium battery (Rauland BD0105 or
CR2430), which should be replaced every seven (7) years. The original battery installation
date is provided on the cover of the NAM:
Page 21 of 55

When a 351002 Network Adapter Module is in operation, the ―MAIN‖ power can remain
connected during a battery replacement.
1 Slide the battery to the right to remove the existing battery.
Figure 17: Backup Battery Compartment
2 Replace battery with fresh Rauland BD0105 or commonly available CR2430.

 Polarity matters; make sure the ―+‖ faces up (towards you).
3 Update the label on the device to show a new battery replacement date.
Getting it Ready
Once you‘ve made the appropriate connections, prepare the unit as follows:
1 Connect a laptop bearing the R5WARE Configuration application to the NAM via the
Ethernet Port.
2 Launch the R5WARE Configurator.
Page 22 of 55
3 Access the Head End Devices screen (Screens | Head End Devices):
Figure 18: R5Ware Configurator (Head End Devices)
4 Enter IP and MAC addresses.

 Use the right arrow key to move your cursor between entry groups:
Figure 19: NAM ID, IP and MAC Address
 R5Ware v1.01 requires you use three (3) digits in each position. If necessary, add
leading and/or trailing zeros. To use ―192.168.6.90,‖ for instance, enter
―192.168.006.090‖.
 Alternatively, you may position the cursor in the MAC address entry field and use a
bar code reader to read the label affixed to the NAM.
 Putting the IP assignments in the NAM requires running the DHCP server application
which will read the MACID – IP address info from a file provided by the GUI
configurator and write the info in the NAM flash. Consult the Responder® 5 System
Design Guide (KI-2234) and the Responder® 5 Configuration Guide (KI-2237) for
more details.

 R5 system can include more than one NAM but each NAM can only supports one
X-Bus Network – a RIV System network.
 The length of the cable connected to the X-bus port must be factored into the total X-
bus length limitation of 1400 feet when Long X-Bus option is selected. Fiber Optic
Adapter Modules and cable cannot be used to extend the X-Bus cable beyond the 1400
foot total length (Long X-Bus) limitation.
 The Ethernet ports can be used to connect to a 351000 BRC, a 351004 8-port Ethernet
switch, and/or a 351006 Fiber Optic Adapter Module.
Page 24 of 55
 You cannot use a hub or splitter to split an Ethernet connection. A 351004 8-port
Switch is required if you must connect to more than four (4) Ethernet devices from any
given NAM.
 The ONLY 36 Volt DC Power Supply connection MUST be to the Terminals marked
―MAIN‖. The ―L-NET‖ power connection will NOT power the NAM and no 36 Volt
DC Power is sent to the X-Bus Connector.
351003 Power Supply with Battery Back-up

The Power Supply (PS) provides system power to 351000 Branch Regional Controllers
(BRCs), 351002 Network Adaptor Modules (NAMs), 351004 Ethernet Switch, 351006
Fiber Optic Adapter Module 10/100Mb, 352000 Corridor Light or 352020 Domeless
Controller.
PS Mounting
The PS is 4.43‖ wide, 11.50‖ high, and 2.59‖ deep and can be mounted using a 351100
The 351003 Power Supply makes up to two (2) possible connections:
1 AC Inlet: required connection to a 90–264 VAC (47-63 Hz) power source—via male
IEC connector.
2 DC Output: DC output to R5System devices—via 12-16 AWG wire.

AC Inlet Connection
The PS should be connected to a reliable 90–264 VAC, 47-63 Hz source with a dedicated
circuit breaker (minimum of 1.97A per 351003 Power Supply.) using the supplied IEC
cable. The AC Inlet Switch can be used to turn the unit on/off.
Battery Backup Connection

Every 351003 Power Supply is equipped with a backup battery. The BATT CONNECT
switch removes the charge circuit from the battery and battery output during power faults.
Leave the switch in the ON position for normal operation. See ―Battery Backup
Replacement‖ below for instructions on battery replacement. The battery will provide
power for approximately three (3) minutes during a power failure (typical loading).
DC Output Connections
The unit supplies power via three (3) parallel DC output pairs (+ |). The total output is
36.5V—up to 2.4 amps. DC connection is made via pluggable screw terminal connectors.
All power supplies connected to devices on the same Branch Regional Controller 351000
must have the 0V tied together. Because the power supplies are floating, 0V must be
referenced on each device that is communicating on an L-Net.
Earth Ground
The 351003 Power Supply makes a connection to Earth Ground via the grounded AC plug.
The PS also provides a connection to Earth Ground for other Head-End devices via the
Page 26 of 55
pluggable screw terminal connector. For ESD and RF purposes, all Responder® 5
Head-End devices must be Earth Grounded. This connection can be made using a user-
provided 12-16AWG wire.
Three (3) AC Output Pairs
Earth Ground Connection
Figure 21: Power Supply DC/AC Monitor/Ground Connections
Short/Overload
In the event of a short or current demand overload, the PS will 1) stop outputting DC, but
automatically retry every 2-3 seconds—until a short is cleared; 2) the green DC PWR LED
will flash several times every 2-3 seconds; and 3) the AC PWR will not turn on. In the
event of short/overload, unplug the screw terminal block, and check the field wiring.
Status Indicator LEDs

The 351003 Power Supply is equipped with four (4) status indicator LEDs:
Figure 22: Status Indicator LEDs
1 DC POWER: (Green) this LED shows solid green when the DC output is between
35.3 and 37.0 VDC; it will flashes green when the supply is too low (33.8-35.3VDC)
or too high (37.0-38.0VDC).
 Remedy: if the LED flashes, remove the DC output connector and recheck field
wiring.
2 BATT REV: (Yellow) this LED shows solid yellow if wires to the backup battery for
this Power Supply are reversed. This LED is independent from the charge circuit and
switch.
 Remedy: if this LED shows yellow, reverse the battery connection wires; see
―Replacing the Backup Battery‖ below for details.
3 BATT CHARGE: (Green) this LED shows solid when the backup battery is charging.
The battery must be attached for the charge circuit to output and the green LED to
illuminate. To increase battery life, the unit will cycle charge the battery—14 +/- 2
hours on and 14 +/- 2 hours off. Cycling will not affect the backup duration.
4 AC POWER – (Green) this LED shows solid when the AC output is 90–264 VAC,
47-63 Hz. It flashes when the input AC supply is out of this range.
Page 27 of 55
 Remedy: if the AC Power LED flashes, check power source voltage.
Turning the Power Supply On

Once you‘ve made all connections, it is safe to turn the unit on.
To Power Up:
1 Place the AC inlet switch at the top of the Power Supply into the ―On‖ position.
Figure 23: AC Inlet Switch (shown in the “ON” position)
 The DC PWR and AC PWR LEDs should show solid green.

 The BATT CHARGE LED should turn on whenever AC power is first applied. You
should be able to measure 35.3 - 37.0 VDC at the DC output screw terminals:
Figure 24: Screw Terminals
Replacing the Backup Battery

The Power Supply cycle charges the battery automatically. Should the battery not charge,
or should you know it to be defective in any other way, replace it with a Panasonic LC-
R121R3P or use Rauland replacement kit 350009. (The typical battery life of this 12V,
1.3AH sealed lead acid battery is approximately five (5) years.)

1 Place the Battery Connect switch into the ―OFF‖ position.

diagnostic details regarding the single attached Ethernet Switch.
To Get Diagnostic Details:

 Run a standard USB cable (USB ―B‖ to ―A‖) from the MANAGEMENT PORT (USB
―B‖) to any available USB port (USB ―A‖) on the R5WARE PC.
UP-LINK TRUNK (G1-G2): Gigabit Ethernet Connections

The Ethernet Switch provides two (2) Network and/or UP-LINK TRUNK ports (G1-G2)
Gigabit Ethernet ports. These can be used to interconnect Ethernet Switches at faster data
transfer speeds than the available 10/100 Ethernet ports. These ports automatically
negotiate between 10M, 100M, and 1 G and match transmit and receive.
 UP-LINK Trunk Ports (G1-G2) are configured by default as normal ports.

 You cannot use a hub or splitter to split a Gigabit Ethernet port connection.
10/100 POE (ENET1-8): Ethernet Connections

The Ethernet Switch provides eight (8) Ethernet ports. The ports can be used to connect
351000 BRCs, 351002 NAMs, to connect 351200 Consoles, 351300 Staff Terminals,
and/or 351006 Fiber Optic Adapter Modules. Connection to Ethernet devices is made using
standard RJ45-terminated CAT5 or CAT6 UTP cable. The Ethernet ports also supply
power to connected 351200 Consoles, 351300 Staff Terminals, and 351006 Fiber Optic
Adapter Modules. Each powered Ethernet port draws ~ 11W to deliver about 10W at the
end of an Ethernet cable run of 330‘.
You cannot use a hub or splitter to split a 10/100 POE Ethernet port connection.
Ethernet (Gigabit and 10/100 Cabling)

All Ethernet runs are limited to 100 meters or 330 feet. A pair of 351006 Fiber Optic
Adapter Modules—connected by multi-mode duplex LC fiber optic cable—can be used to
Page 31 of 55
increase run lengths to 5000 feet. (This depends on the fiber cable used between
connections.) Ethernet cables should be wired according to the T568A standard:
BROWN
WHITE/BROWN
ORANGE
WHITE/BLUE
BLUE

 Each 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port supports one connection and one PoE powered
device.
 351006 Fiber Optic Adapter Modules connected to the Gigabit ports will cause the
Gigabit ports to auto-negotiate to 100 Mbps connection speed.
 For proper shielding, connect a ground wire (#16 - #14) from the ground stud to a
ground screw in the system cabinet 351102/NC2828.
 Position the 351004 on the mounting rails inside of a 351102/NC2828 with other
351004s or power supplies at least ¼‖ away—preferably ½‖—horizontal spacing
between devices.
 For higher than normal ambient temperature applications in 2828 cabinets, add a few
flat washers (or single ¼-20 hex nuts) underneath the mounting screws at each end of
the 351004 case to free up bottom side ventilation holes.
351006 Fiber Optic Adapter Module 10/100Mb

The 351006 Fiber Optic Adapter Module can be used in bridged pairs to extend the length
of Ethernet cable runs. It can also be used a fiber interface to a hospitals network.

Fiber Connection
The multi-mode duplex LC fiber connector can be used when cable runs to 351000 Branch
Regional Controllers, 351004 Ethernet Switches, 351200 Consoles, and/or 351300 Staff
Terminals extend between 331 and 5000 feet.
351006 Fiber Optic Adapter Modules are normally used in pairs. They can also be used as a single
with the other end connected to a hospital network switch with a 100 Mb multi-mode fiber
transceiver port.
Calculating an (ideal) Optical Power Budget:

The estimated Optical Power Budget (OPB) for the 351006 transceiver is 14 dB
Typical loss at fiber butt splice* = -1.5 dB
Typical loss at LC connector = -0.5 dB
Typical loss from aging of fiber and transmitter = -1.5 dB
Typical loss in fiber ―run‖** = -0.4 dB/km
*Accept two splices along fiber loop at the ends, if loss is no more than -1.5 dB per splice.
Any additional splices along the fiber run will add to the loss.
**Assume cable is OM1 = 62.5 um, OM2 = 50 um, or OM3 = 50 um tweaked beam at
aperture and losses are no more than these numbers. Fiber manufacturer should supply this
data.

Each cabinet supplies power to head-end equipment via one of the four (4) grounded AC
Power Outlets. The AC receptacles should be wired to a reliable 100V-250V, 50-60Hz AC
source with a dedicated 15A circuit breaker. (Up to two equipment cabinets can be used on
a breaker with seven (7) or less 351003 power supplies between both cabinets.) Make sure
to observe the correct polarity (hot = black, neutral = white, and earth = green) when
wiring; make sure, too, to connect the green ground wire to the green screw terminals on
both of the AC receptacles.

3: Console, Staff Terminal, and
Related Accessories
The following Console, Staff Terminal, and related Accessories, and are supported by the
R5 system:
 351200 Console
 351201 Console Receptacle
 351300 Staff Terminal
351200 Console/351201 Console Receptacle

The 351200 Console (a.k.a. ―Responder® 5 Nurse Call Console‖) is typically located at a
local nursing station, work station, centralized communications center, or any place where
staff receive calls, communicate with other staff, or initiate any R5 functions. The Console
makes connection to a 351201 Console Receptacle, which in turn makes connection to the
head-end equipment. Using this 351201 Console Receptacle, the Console may be desk or
wall mounted.
Page 41 of 55
Figure 37: 351200 Console
351201 Console Receptacle Mounting

The Console Receptacle should be mounted in a grounded, single-gang electrical box. The
opening must be at least 1.70‖ wide, 2.00‖ high, and 1.30‖ deep.
When mounted flush to a wall, the faceplate of the Console Receptacle will be 3.15‖ wide,
4.25‖ high, and protrude 0.61‖ from the wall. In order to allow access, the unit should be
mounted with at least 0.75‖ clearance on all sides. The mounting screws should be
tightened to a torque of 1.25 in-lb or 0.141 N-m.
Always fully test a unit‘s functionality before snapping its faceplate into place—as these plates are
not easily removed.
The 351200 Console connects to the 351201 Console Receptacle‘s front-side Ethernet port;
while the Receptacle itself connects to a head-end device (351000 Branch Regional
Controller, 351004 Ethernet Switch, or 351006 Fiber Optic Adapter Module) via home-run
cable.

Figure 39: 351201 Console Receptacle Connections
The 351201 Console Receptacle provides two (2) Ethernet ports. The front-side port is
used to connect to the 351200 Console; the rear-side Ethernet port is used to connect to a
head-end device (351000 Branch Regional Controller, 351004 Ethernet Switch, or 351006
Fiber Optic Adapter Module). Connection to and from the Receptacle is made using
shielded RJ45-terminated CAT5 or CAT6 UTP cable. (Shielding directs ESD discharges to
Earth Ground.)
Ethernet Cabling
Optic Adapter Modules—connected by multi-mode duplex LC fiber optic cable—can be
used to increase run lengths to 5000 feet (depending on the fiber cable capabilities).
Ethernet cables should be wired according to the T568A standard:

Power Connections
Where run lengths do not exceed the 330 foot Ethernet cabling limitation, power to the
Console is provided by the 35100 Branch Regional Controller and the 351004 Ethernet
Switch over the Ethernet cable (POE). When the fiber optic solution is used to increase
cable run length, ―direct‖ power must be provided to the Receptacle via a 12-18 gauge
home run connection to a 351003 Power Supply—located within 300 feet of the Console.
Consult the Power Calculation Worksheet (System Design Guide) for details.
Handset Connection
The Console makes connection to the included handset via the bottom of the console
RJ-11.
Getting it Ready
Once you‘ve made the appropriate connections, prepare the unit as follows:
Setting Console and Staff Terminal Address/Identity

If Consoles and Staff Terminals do not get their address/identity via the DHCP protocol in
the GUI (as do other hardware devices); then the address information must be manually
input at each unit.
To Access System Information for a Console/Staff Terminal:

1 Press the unit‘s Cancel button four (4) times and then hold down for 5 seconds.
2 Let the button up and the ―System Set-up/Maintenance‖ buttons should appear.
 The device will enter maintenance mode.
3 Press the touchpoint associated with ―System Info‖ to view the current settings.
 Note the ―IpAddr,‖ the ―SubnetMask,‖ the ―PAddr,‖ ―ZAddr,‖ and ―ZPort‖
information.
 These settings can be entered in the Maintenance mode or by the DHCP server from
the GUI.
4 Press Cancel, or wait for the screen to automatically return to the diagnostic-menu.
Page 44 of 55
To Change a Console/Staff Terminal’s IP address and/or Subnet Mask:

1 Press the right-arrow key until you arrive at the ―Set IPAddr Mask‖ option.
2 Use the keypad to enter an IP Address (###:###:###:###:##, where each pound sign is
part of a valid IP string, and the colon [:] is used to represent a period).
 Entering ―192:168:27:5:24‖ would, for instance, make the address ―192.168.27.5/24‖
(see the Responder® 5 System Design Guide (KI-2234) or an IP reference manual
about CIDR notation).
 The ―24‖ appearing at the end of the string is used in a class-C network, i.e. a subnet
mask of ―255.255.255.0‖. Another likely scenario is to be a class-B network. The
subnet mask is ―255.255.0.0‖ and you should enter the last number as ―16‖, e.g.
―172:31:2:3:16‖.
3 Press the ―Set IPAddr Mask‖ key.
To Change to the <Z, P> Identity

A valid Z,P string consists of a Z address (1-96), a P address (97-112 for Consoles, 113-
148 for Staff Terminals), and a facility-specific UDP port number. (Each facility must
dedicate a port to R5 use, e.g., 5004.)
1 Use the keypad to enter a <Z, P> entry (―##:##:####‖, where each pound sign is part of
a valid Z,P string and the colon [:] is used to represent a period).
 Entering ―5:97:5003,‖ for instance would make the address ―5.97.5003‖.
2 Press the ―Set ZPAddr ZPort‖ key.
3 Press ―System Info‖ to confirm changes.
4 Use left/right-arrows and press ―Reboot Panel.‖
5 The console will reboot and receive configuration data from the BRC.
Adjust the Audio Levels:

Audio levels at the Console speaker are controlled by the speaker button pair on the left
side of the Console face. The top button increases the Console speaker level, while the
bottom button decreases it. The speaker level is shown on screen. 1 is the lowest level, 10
the loudest.
Audio level at the room is controlled by the BRC managing that Console and room
Corridor Light through Action button assignments on the console (or Staff Terminal).

 Each Branch Regional Controller provides a maximum of 12 simultaneous
Full-Duplex Audio slots per controller available to the Ethernet connection.
 Audio slots per BRC are divided across the BRC L-Net ports with a maximum of six
(6) being assignable to a particular L-Net port. Assignment is automatic on an as
needed basis driven by call request in the system.
 Make sure to use shielded RJ45-terminated CAT5 or CAT6 UTP cable between the
Console and the Console Receptacle; shielded cable directs ESD discharges to Earth
Ground.
 The 351200 console requires a 100 Mbps Ethernet connection with PoE for operation.
Page 45 of 55
351300 Staff Terminal

The Staff Terminal can be configured to play one of three (3) different roles in the
R5Nurse Call system: Mini-Console, Intercom Station, or Dynamic Button Panel.
As Mini-Console, it replicates most of the functionality provided by the Nurse Call
Console—allowing users to view and respond to calls, set/review service requirements,
review staff registration, upgrade call priority, monitor rooms, manage room privacy, etc.
As Intercom Station, it replicates most of the communication functionality provided by the
Nurse Call Console—most importantly, allowing users to view and respond to calls.
As a Dynamic Button Panel, it provides up to twelve configurable call touchpoints, which
can be changed as necessary to reflect actual needs. Multiple button panels can be defined
in the R5 GUI with a total of over 40 possible button names associated with action button
functions.
Figure 41: 351300 Staff Terminal
Mounting the Staff Terminal

The Staff Terminal should be mounted in a grounded, three (3) gang electrical box or
headwall with a three (3) gang opening. The opening must be at least 5.20‖ wide, 2.90‖
high, and 1.15‖ deep with added space to clear the cable connection.
When mounted flush to a wall, the faceplate of the Staff Terminal is 9.75‖ wide, 5.00‖
high, and protrudes 1.20‖ from the wall. In order to allow access, the terminal should be
mounted with at least 0.75‖ clearance on all sides. The mounting screws should be
tightened to a torque of 0.5 in-lb or 0.056 N-m.
not easily removed.
To Install the Staff Terminal:

1 Without a face plate snapped in place, remove the screw at the top of the station.
 The board and display assembly will pivot at the bottom of the station.
 A red cord will prevent the assembly from pivoting too far.

The 351300 Staff Terminal provides one (1) required Ethernet connection to either the
351000 Branch Regional Controller or 351004 Ethernet Switch. Route the cable through
the base RJ hole in the back panel. Connect the Ethernet cable to the Staff Terminal when
the screen is in the flip-down mode.
Grounding the Staff Terminal is essential; therefore, if you don‘t use a metal electrical box, or if
you use one, but the metal box does not make contact with the terminal‘s Earth Ground tabs, you
must run a grounded wire to the provided ground terminal.

The 351300 Staff Terminal provides a single Ethernet port—used to connect to the head-
end (351000 Branch Regional Controller, 351004 Ethernet Switch, or 351006 Fiber Optic
Adapter Module). Connection to and from the Receptacle is made using shielded RJ45-
terminated CAT5 or CAT6 UTP cable. (Shielding directs ESD discharges to Earth Ground
and reduces unwanted RF interference.)
Ethernet Cabling
Optic Adapter Modules— connected by multi-mode duplex LC fiber optic cable—can be
used to increase run lengths to 5000 feet depending on the fiber cable capability. Ethernet
cables should be wired according to the T568A standard:

Getting it Ready
Once you‘ve made the appropriate connections, prepare the unit as you would the Console
(see Setting Console and Staff Terminal Address/Identity).
Adjust the Audio Levels:

Staff Terminal audio levels are adjusted in the same manner as the Console; however, local
and room levels are adjusted using Staff Terminal action buttons (―Room Vol DN,‖ ―Room
Vol UP,‖ by default)—which are defined and assigned by the GUI for download from the
management BRC for each given Staff Terminal.
Entering Staff terminal ―EOL‖ menus for set-up was described above. More details are
included in the Appendix.

352000 Corridor Light
/352020 Domeless Room Controller
While the 352000 Corridor Light is used where visual signaling is necessary, both the
Light and the 352020 Domeless Room Controller offer the same connectivity.
Figure 1: 352000 Corridor Light
Mounting the Corridor Light

The 352000 Corridor Light should be mounted in a grounded single gang electrical box.
The box must be large enough to accommodate all of the service loop cabling.
When mounted flush to a wall, the Corridor Light is 4.78‖ wide, 5.48‖ high, and protrudes
3.79‖ from the wall. In order to allow room to install and possibly remove the Corridor
Light, it should be mounted with at least 0.75‖ clearance on all sides.
Corridor Lights are typically installed either above or to the side of room entrance doors—
at least 80” above the finished floor—or in a ceiling (wallboard, hard surface, or soft
panel). The mounting screws should be tightened to a torque of 0.50 in-lb or 0.056 N-m.
We strongly recommend that you do not locate CLs directly over, beside, or below lighting
fixtures or within a few feet of room lights—as to keep CL call light indication plainly visible.
To properly install the Corridor Light, the Ground Strap on the mounting plate must make contact
with a grounded electrical box or another earth ground.
Page 10 of 54
The 352000 1 Audio Corridor Light and 352020 Domeless Room Controller each make
two types of connections: 1) to the L-Net from a BRC and 2) to M-Net (Stations) in a
room. The M-Net connections can be further divided to in audio connections (M1 and M2)
and non-audio connections (M3).

L-Net Connection
The L-Net—which carries power, digitized data, and digitized audio—runs between
Corridor Lights and/or Domeless Controllers and the 351000 Branch Regional Controller.
22VDC-37VDC power runs through the blue/white blue and brown/white brown twisted
pairs; while data is transmitted on the green/white green and orange/white orange pairs.
Before you install any Corridor Light/Domeless Controllers, you must configure your system, print
out an L-Net Location Worksheet, and complete the Power Calculation Spreadsheet (System
Design Guide).
The Corridor Light/Domeless Controller is connected to the L-Net via a 350002 L-Net T-
Tap connector module or 350003 L-Net Termination Module.
Remote Power on the L-Net

If voltage on the blue/white blue and brown/white brown L-Net pairs to the Corridor
Light/Domeless Controller falls below 22VDC, remote power is required. You can provide
such remote power using the supplemental power terminals. (See Figure 3.)

(CUT)
Figure 3: Power Jumpers Cut and Remote Power Added to T-Tap
 Cutting the power jumper wires prevents a) power from the L-NET IN cable going to
the Corridor Light/Domeless Controller and to the L-NET OUT connector and b)
power back-feed, which will likely cause data problems.
2 Run 12-18 AWG wire from a 351003 Power Supply to the T-Tap screw terminals.
 You can use the Power Calculation worksheet (System Design Guide) to determine
wire gauge.
 The L-Net T-Tap can be hot plugged and unplugged on a 352000 Audio Corridor
Light and 352020 Domeless Room Controller
 Do not cut the L-Net cable while power is applied.
M-Net Connections
Audio Stations are connected to one of the top two 8-pin M-Net headers (M1 and M2) and
Non-Audio Stations to the third M-Net Header (M3) on the Corridor Light/Domeless
Controller. Never connect Non-Audio Stations to an audio connection (M1 or M2). This
will likely create nurse call audio noise.
18VDC runs through the brown/white brown power pair. Differential microphone audio
from the station runs over the green/white green pair (M1 and M2). Differential speaker
audio to the station runs through the orange/white orange pair (M1 and M2). M-Net data
runs through the blue/white blue pair.
Page 12 of 54
Setting the L-Net Address
Corridor Lights and Domeless Controllers have two decimal rotary L-Net Address
switches accessible from the back of the unit (top/center). Valid L-Net addresses range
between and include 1-96 with the tens dial on the left. Note in the Figure below the
position on the selector pointing at the ―0‖ selection. Rotate each selector clockwise to the
number determined in the system configuration process as the assigned P-Address
(Peripheral Address) for the controller.
Figure 4: L-Net Address Switches
To Determine an L-Net Address

1 Multiply the number of left switch by 10.
2 Add the result to the number on the right switch.
 For example, if the left switch is set to three (3) and the right switch is set to two (2),
the L-Net address would be 32: 3 x 10 = 30 + 2 = 32.
Confirming it Works
The Corridor Light and Domeless Controller are equipped with three status LEDs:
LED What it Means*

This LED will blink when L-Net data is seen by the Corridor
L-Net Activity LED (Green)
Light.
This LED will turn on when the voltage on the L-Net wires
Power Good LED (Amber) (blue/white blue and brown/white brown) is between
22VDC-37VDC.
o OFF – No blinking – CL is OK - This is the normal
condition after reboot and 5+ minutes has passed.
o 1 blink in unison with the green LED – CL is OK – after
boot for approximately 5 minutes.
o Uneven blink (long – short – long – short, etc) - CL Flash
download in progress.
Status LED (Red) o Strobe (fast Blink) – BRC detected by CL –
communications may or may not be OK.
o 3 blinks then pause and repeat sequence – Not properly
receiving unicast messages from BRC – may be an L-Net
problem.
o Slow Blink – 1 sec on – then 1 sec off – No FRP which
means no BRC connection.

Corridor Light & Domeless Controller Limits
 A maximum of 24 Corridor Light/Domeless Controllers can be attached on and L-Net
run from a port on a 350000 Building Regional Controller.
 An L-Net run from a 350000 Building Regional Controller cannot exceed 3000 feet
maximum. That 3000 feet limit is reduced by 420 feet for each 350004 L-Net Hub on
the net. This run length does not include power distribution decisions so it is not likely
—in practical installations—that a 3000 foot net run can be achieved.
 A maximum of 96 Corridor Lights and Domeless Controllers can be connected to a
single 35000 Building Regional Controller.
 Audio Patient Stations require a minimum of 14VDC for proper operation; non-audio
Patient Stations require a minimum of 8VDC—both measured at one of the M-NET
connectors on the station. The brown wire is +V and the white brown wire is –V.
 The M-Net cable run to a single Corridor Light/Domeless Controller cannot exceed a
total 250 feet (all connected Patient and Button Station cable lengths combined).
 No more than any combination of 16 Patient and Button stations can be connected to a
single Corridor Light/Domeless Controller.
 No more than three (3) audio stations can be connected to a single Corridor
Light/Domeless Controller. One of the three must be a Pullcord with Audio.

 Domeless Controllers have both ½‖ and ¾‖ knock-outs, which can be used to attach the
unit directly to conduit.

Mounting Non-Audio M-Net Stations
Non-Audio Stations should be mounted in a grounded, single gang electrical box or
headwall with a single gang opening. The opening must be at least 1.60‖ wide, 2.00‖ high,
and 0.65‖ deep. The 354018 2-Jack Input Station is larger and requires an opening 1.75‖
wide, 2.90‖ high, and 1.65‖ deep.
The mounting screws should be tightened to a torque of 1.0 in-lb or 0.113 N-m. The station
should mount flat against the wall. Excessive tightening can cause the edges of the plastic
to bow away from the wall surface, which may result in the station not operating properly.
If the electrical box is recessed behind the wall surface, using the included station adapter
plate can help prevent the station back-plate plastic from bending. Another solution to
prevent the station back-plate plastic from bending is to add #6 washers behind the
mounting screw holes of the back-plate.
When mounted flush to a wall, the faceplates of the 354001, 354010, 354011, 354012,
354015, and 354018 stations will be 3.15‖ wide, 4.25‖ high, and protrude 0.61‖ from the
wall. The 354002, 354016 and 354017 stations will be 4.72‖ wide, 4.25‖ high, and
protrude 0.61‖ from the wall. In order to allow room to install and possibly remove the
To meet code and American Disability Act requirements, all Non-Audio Stations should be
flush-mounted approximately 46‖ above the finished floor. Make sure the cord reaches to
within one foot of the floor, in order to accommodate patients who may have fallen. Note:
see ―Pullcord & Bell Replacement‖ for instructions regarding cord/bell
adjustment/replacement.
not easily removed.

Making Connections
The Non-Audio Stations make up to five possible connections. All M-Net connections on
the Non-Audio Stations are made using an eight (8) conductor UTP Category-5 cable with
350001/350018 connectors on each end.
1 M-NET (non-audio): required connection to M-Net position M3 on a Corridor Light,
Domeless Controller, or other M-Net without audio connection.
2 M-NET (non-audio): used as an M-Net extension to other non-audio stations.
(Located under the plastic tab)
3 OUT-1: optically-isolated interface to an elapsed timer.

Ground Connection
Proper earth grounding of the station is essential for ESD protection and system reliability.
All Non-Audio Stations can be earth grounded in one of two (2) ways:
 If the back box is metal and earth ground continuity is verified, the ground tab on the
back of the station will provide the suitable ground connection. Ensure the metal back
box has no paint or plaster covering the metal area where the tab will make contact.
 Use the earth ground lug and connect to a known earth ground. The lug is a 6-32 thread.
Do not use a screw longer than 3/8‖ long.

Alerts, Precautions, and System Limitations

 All head-end components should be mounted in either the 351102 or NC2828
system cabinets. Although these Responder® 5 system components will operate
outside of these enclosures, the installation will not meet UL 1069 or FCC
performance standards.
 The 351102 and NC2828 system cabinets provide protection from physical
damage when equipment is located within equipment rooms and allow for
continuous uninterrupted nurse call operation.
 The 351102 and NC2828 system cabinets and head-end components include air
ventilation holes for proper cooling while in operation. Mount the components in
locations with sufficient air flow, in rooms with ambient temperature range
between 32˚F (0˚C) and 122˚F (50˚C). Preferred ambient temperature is 20˚C -
30˚C.
 Since ventilation holes must be kept open and do not protect from accidental fluid
sprays, consider location of 351102 and NC2828 system cabinets housing head-
end equipment away from water and sewer pipes, but not out of range of fire
protection nozzles should they be present.
 Observe ―Handle with Care‖, ―Caution‖ and ―Lift Properly‖ warnings when
installing system cabinets and head-end components since these units can be
somewhat heavy and large. Dropping these components could damage the
components or possibly injure the installation personal.
 All system modules must be connected to earth ground (through a terminal lug
provided or case mounting screw and ―GREEN‖ ground wire) for proper ESD and
RF noise protection.
 Use only the AC power connection cables supplied with the 351003 for proper AC
line and ground connections to the power supply.
 Be sure the 351003 battery wire connection lugs are properly seated on the battery
terminals and the battery switch is in the ―ON‖ position for proper operation of the
battery charging circuit.
 Allow the battery to charge for at least 14 hours before it can be assumed that the
351003 will have sufficient battery back-up charge to continue Nurse Call
operation through an AC power outage event. Full charge should not be assumed
until after two full charge/no-charge cycles of approximately 64 hours.
 351003 Power Supply back-up batteries should be replaced every five (5) years.
 Dispose of batteries removed after replacement using proper recycle procedures
for the batteries. 351003 contain sealed lead acid batteries.
 Wiring directions are included within these installation manuals showing proper
interconnects between head-end components and other Responder® 5 system
devices. Please follow closely and observe all terminal polarity marks and color
codes as directed to prevent possible damage to component from reverse
connection of voltage and signals. Although the system components include a
level of self protection to pass short miss-wiring events, unnecessary stress from
careless wiring errors can shorten the operating life of some components.

Remote Power on the L-Net

To provide remote power to a Corridor Light or Domeless Controller, you will need to cut
the power jumper wires on the 350002 L-Net T-Tap and provide additional power via the
screw terminals. Cutting the power jumper wires prevents power from the L-NET IN cable
Page 17 of 48
®
from going to the Corridor Light and to the L-NET OUT connector. It will also prevent
back-feeding power and prevent data problems.
Add 12-16 AWG wire to from a Power Supply to the T-Tap screw terminals. Use the
Power Calculation worksheet to determine if the wire you have selected is the correct
gauge.

Things to Know/Keep in Mind

 Each Corridor Light or Domeless Controller in Responder® 5 using the L-Net requires
a 350002 or 350003 for system connection.
 Only a 350002 T-Tap can be used to insert power on an L-Net connection run.
 Each L-Net extension split from a 350004 L-Net Hub must be terminated at the end by
a 350003 T-Tap Termination module.
 Cutting both jumpers on the T-Tap may not be necessary when inserting power if
common mode connections between power supplies in not easy. See the ―Standard R5
Wiring Example - v7‖ or newer for directions.
350004 L-Net Hub

The 350005 L-Net Hub allows the L-Net to be split into a T configuration. Such splitting
may be necessary at hallway intersections, in corners, etc. Each 350005 L-Net Hub reduces
the maximum (3000 foot) L-Net length by 420 feet for all combined runs from the BRC
tap for each L-Net Hub on the run.
Multiple L-Net Hubs can be used. But no more than four (4) L-Net paths can be present on
any link combination between L-Net Hubs on a single L-Net port from the 351000 BRC.
(Trace paths from the last Corridor Light/Domeless Controller on a tap through all L-Net

1 L-NET IN: used to connect the L-Net connection to head-end equipment or previous
Corridor Light/Domeless Controller. Provides power to the Hub as well as the OUT
and TAP connections.
2 L-NET OUT (powered): used to connect to Corridor Lights/Domeless Controllers.
No more than 0.5 A will be supplied from the OUT on the power pairs.
3 L-NET TAP (powered): used to connect to Corridor Lights/Domeless Controllers. No
more than 0.5 A will be supplied from the TAP connection on the power pairs.
L-NET IN CONNECTION
The L-Net IN provides power to the Hub and is the input for the L-Net run from the
351000 Building Regional Controller (BRC) L-Net ports or previous Corridor Light
/Domeless Controller. Because of the amount of power required for the L-Net Hub, no
other L-Net device may be powered from the Building Regional Controller if power has
not been inserted at a 350002 T-Tap before the L-Net Hub connection.
L-NET OUT CONNECTION

The L-Net OUT connects to one or more Corridor Light(s) /Domeless Controller(s) to pass
the network connection along similar to the T-Tap connection at a Corridor Light. The
OUT connection will transfer up to 0.5 A on the power pairs from the L-Net IN
connection. The T-Tap following the OUT connection may need to have the power
jumpers cut to prevent multiple power injection paths.
L-NET TAP CONNECTION

The L-Net TAP connection provides an intermediate point in the L-Net where a connection
may be made. The L-Net Hub buffers the data to the TAP connection. This buffered data
reproduces the L-Net signal to that run of Corridor Lights/Domeless Controllers. The TAP
connection will transfer up to 0.5 A on the power pairs from the L-Net IN connection. The
T-Tap following the TAP connection may need to have the power jumpers cut to prevent
multiple power injection paths.

 The L-Net can only be split into a T configuration by using a 350004 L-Net Hub. Each
350005 L-Net Hub reduces the 3000 foot length of the L-Net by 420 feet.
 Close attention must be paid to the through power capability after the connection to the
L-Net Hub. The OUT and TAP connections are limited to 0.5 A. This is not the same
as for a 350002 T-Tap.
 A limited number of L-Net Hubs can use used on a single L-Net run connection from a
351000 BRC. See directions above.
350005 M-Net Divider

The 350005 M-Net Divider allows to split an M-Net. The M-Net may require splitting
because the Corridor Light and Domeless Controllers only provide (2) two audio and one
non-audio M-Net connection and most stations only have a single non-audio M-Net output.
Page 20 of 48

The 35005 M-Net Divider makes two (2) types of connections: 1) M-NET W/AUDIO, and
2) M-NET NO AUDIO.

3 M-NET NO AUDIO: used to connect to a Non-Audio Station.
M-NET W/AUDIO
You can use the M-NET W/AUDIO in one of two (2) ways:
1 By connecting the M-NET connection to an audio connection (M1 or M2) on a
Corridor Light or Domeless Controller, you can use the M-NET W/AUDIO connection
to split the M-Net to two Audio Patient Stations or an Audio Patient Station and an
Audio Pull-Cord Station. When the M-NET connection is connected to M1 or M2, M-
NET W/AUDIO should only be connected to audio stations.
2 By connecting the M-NET connection to a non-audio connection (M3) on a Corridor
Light or Domeless Controller, you can split the M-Net to three Non-Audio Stations.
Avoid audio noise by never connecting Non-Audio Stations to the M-NET W/AUDIO port when
running the M-NET to an audio connection (M1 or M2).
M-NET NO AUDIO
The M-NET NO AUDIO connects to any non-audio station when the M-NET is connected
to ports M1, M2, or M3 on a Corridor Light or Domeless Controller.

 The M-Net cable run length (all Patient and Button Station cable lengths combined) on
a single Corridor Light/Domeless Controller is limited to 250 feet.

350300 Remote Tilt/Release DIN Station/350301

Remote Standard 8-Pin DIN Station
There are two (2) Remote DIN models: 1) the 350300 Remote Tilt/Release DIN Station
which serves as a DIN extension for Responder® 5 patient stations and can be used with a
3502xx Pillow Speakers, and 2) the 350301 Remote Standard 8-Pin DIN Station which can
be used with the NCESxxx or NCDSxxx Pillow Speakers or the CCDIN call cord.
The 350301 connects to a Patient Station. The other (isolated) end of the 350301 connects
to a Pillow Speaker. The 350301 has isolation components (opto-isolators) that transmit
button presses from the pillow speaker to the patient station without a DC connection.
The isolation is there for safety purposes. If an unknown device were to be plugged into the
350301 and it caught fire or was hit with ESD, the isolation would keep the nurse call
system safe.

5 Press the cancel button on the Patient Station.
6 Turn on the TV, and adjust the audio level.
Other Things You Should Know

 This D-Net cannot exceed 50 feet.
 D-Net cables cannot be split.
 The 350300 passes TV audio and data through the Audio Patient Station to the pillow
speaker. The 350301, however, requires direct TV connections on the back of the
350301 station.
 Match the pillow speaker to the TV model when using the 350301, as TV data lines are
also used to power the pillow speaker. (The same as for Responder® IV and Responder®
4000.)
 Because Remote DINs do not have address switches, only one is allowed per Audio
Patient Station.

Making Connections/Interconnect, and “How it

Works”
All of the 3502xx series Pillow Speakers make connection via a DIN plug using the
Responder® 5 Tilt-Release 9-pin DIN connector plug. The Tilt-Release function allows for
the cord on the pillow speaker (or call cord) to be pulled at an angle. The Tilt-Release jack
in the patient station turns slightly toward the angle of the cord pull. At the same time the
extended round flange on the cord at the Tilt-Release plug pushes against the station front.
These actions – tilt and push on the lever - push the plug out of the jack finally allowing
extraction with reduced stress on the cord and jack in the patient station.

Once you‘ve made the appropriate connections, use the following procedure to make sure
it works:
1 Connect the Pillow Speaker to the DIN jack.
2 Press the Nurse Button on the pillow speaker.
3 Verify the call assurance LED is lit and an audio path has been established to the
console.

 If applicable, confirm that the light buttons and/or TV controls are fully functional.
 Other call buttons on the pillow speaker may turn on call assurance LEDs.
350302 Feature Bed Interface

354100 Input Module – 2 Point

354101 Solid State Output Module - High Current
354102 Relay Output Module – Dry Contact
354103 Solid State Output Module – Low Current
The 354100 Input Module – 2 Point is designed to interface external latching alarm dry
contacts to annunciate through the Responder® 5 system. One module would be associated
with a single fire alarm or door alarm (Auxiliary) contact. The contact can be supervised
and annunciated upon failure at the Console. The compact size of the module permits its
easy mounting in a junction box or Corridor Light back box. The module is enclosed in a
plastic clam shell with two (2) plug-on insulation displacement connectors.
The 354101 Solid State Output Module - High Current is used where an electronic high
current contact closure output is needed. This module requires a separate external DC
power source (up to 28VDC). Being solid state, allows the unit many more closure
operations than a standard relay closure. This output contact can switch loads of 300mA
maximum.
The 354102 Relay Output Module - Dry Contact is used where two (2) dry contact
closure outputs are needed It can be used to switch AC contacts. The common, normally
open and normally closed pins are all available on each relay output.
The 354103 Solid State Low Current Output Module is used where an electronic
contact closure output is needed. Being solid state, the unit is capable of many more
closure operations than a standard relay closure. This output contact can switch loads of
2mA maximum.

354100 Input Module - 2 Point

In addition to its M-Net connection, the Input Module - 2 Point connects to a Fire Alarm or
other device that requires isolation.
Note: the contact connection to the 354100 Input Module - 2 Point units can be supervised
or unsupervised:
The 354100 to Fire-Alarm interface provided can only serve as a supplementary warning.
Underwriters Laboratory does NOT list Responder 5 as a primary alarm system. The 354100
inputs should only be used for redundant annunciation of high priority calls, such as ―Fire
Alarms.‖ Should you requite a fire alarm system, you must install that separately and
independently of the Responder® 5 Nurse Call system.
Supervised Contact (Typical)

The 354100 unit is supervised by default through software. To supervise the connection
(contact) itself, you must connect the included 27Kohm resistor in parallel, and as close to
the contact as possible (Figure 30):

You can disable supervision of the connection (contact) between the 354100 and the fire
alarm or auxiliary unit using R5Ware Configuration software.
Because the 354100 uses a solid state opto-isolator to sense a contact closure on the auxiliary
device, you must pay particular attention to polarity when wiring to auxiliary devices that do not
provide ―dry‖ contacts.

Jumper Settings
The 354101 is equipped with two (2) output jumpers, used with lamps and relays. For protection a ―flyback‖ diode is included between the ―Normally Open +V‖
and ―Common‖ contacts. Common power ―+V‖ and ground ―0V‖ are routed to the output connectors.
Removing the jumpers removes the external power supply from the common power and grounds. The outputs are then independent for selected output loads.
Depending on load, additional diodes may be added and power supplied separately.
See an equivalent circuit—with and without the output jumpers and highlighted connections—in Figure 33. Each pair of contact outputs is controlled by a solid
state switch similar to an open circuit relay with a measurable series resistance. When the solid state switch is ON, the contacts will have 17 ohms of resistance;
when the switch is OFF, the contacts will have a 1Mohm of resistance.

3: Console Operation
In the following chapter, you’ll learn about:
Console States
Incoming Station Calls
Answering Calls
Controlling Display Lines
Placing Calls
Screensaver, Idle, and Active Modes

The Console can either be in screensaver, idle, or active modes.
Screensaver Mode
When no activity has taken place for 5-30 minutes (user-configurable), the Console will enter
screensaver mode. Any activity—or pressing any key—will return the Console to active mode.
Figure 4: Screensaver Mode
Idle Mode
During those times when you are not actively engaged in a communication-related activity, the
Console is considered “idle.”
When a Console is Idle, its display shows only the current date (mm/dd/yy) and time
(hours:minutes:seconds) on the bottom line:
Page 12 of 71
Figure 5: Idle Display Mode
Active Display Mode

When calls are pending, when you are placing calls, and/or when you are using any of the Line
Selector or Menu Keys to perform system operations, the Console is considered “active.”
In active mode, the display reveals pertinent information regarding a maximum of three (3)
display entries at once:
Figure 6: Active Display Mode
You will not see any entries beyond the three (3) call display limit, but you can use the Line
Scroll keys to view others if the “Scroll to view more calls” message appears:
Page 13 of 71
Figure 7: Additional Calls
Function Indicators
Each Function Indicator is associated with a Function Selector key. During certain operations,
these indicators are highlighted:
Figure 8: Function Indicators
Incoming Station Calls

In order to provide you with sufficient information regarding the nature and relative urgency of
calls, the Console uses its first three (3) display lines to show the Room Number and, if
applicable, Bed Number of the originating station, a Call Priority abbreviation, and, optionally, an
Elapsed Call Timer.
Having the Elapsed Call Timer display is optional. This feature must be enabled during system set-
up.
Page 14 of 71
The fourth display line provides information regarding time of day, system messages, more calls,
etc. The time of day appears on the fourth display line when fewer than three (3) calls are being
annunciated.
Display Order
As the following example illustrates, calls are sorted and “stacked” in the Console display by two
(2) criteria: call priority (higher before lower) and time of arrival (older before newer). In this
way, you can quickly determine in which order to respond to arriving and/or pending calls. In the
first of the following examples, three (3) calls are ordered based on their Priority level:
The highest Priority

call appears first.
Figure 9: Display Order (Priority)
In the second example, three (3) calls (of the same Priority) are ordered based on their “age”:
“Older” calls of the

same priority appear
first.
Figure 10: Display Order (Time)
Other Incoming Calls

The Console display also uses display indicators to distinguish between calls from other Consoles
and Staff Terminals.
Calls of these varieties are also sorted and “stacked” in the Console display in the order they were
placed:
Page 15 of 71
Figure 11: Other Incoming Calls
Controlling Display Lines

Here are some related things to keep in mind regarding the Console:
The arrival of new calls may cause existing calls to shift down in the Display list.
If a call arrives of Priority higher than any currently being displayed, the Display-window
shifts to display that call in the first line (“top” line), and it becomes the “selected” call—
unless you are in the act of dialing and there are dialed digits in the top line. In such cases, the
higher Priority call appears on line two (and is not selected).
You can use the up and down arrows to scroll up or down through calls, reviews, and or
messages. You’ll know you are at the end of the current list if the “End of List” message
appears.
The “Scroll to view” message only appear when there are more than three (3) items (calls,
reviews, messages, etc.) in a Display list.
Should you wish to remove dialed digits, audio, or paging from the Display, you may press
Cancel. Once you’ve cancelled a process, the Display returns to its three line state.
If you are not in communication with someone, in the process of dialing, or paging, tones will
begin to sound again when a call arrives (also see the Mute Tones section).
Tones do not sound over the Console’s speaker or handset during pages.
Tones are automatically muted when you communication begins. Tones will begin to sound
again if a new call arrives bearing a higher priority than the one you are in the process of
answering.
Answering Calls at the Console

Although calls arrive at the Console from a variety of Stations, other Consoles, Wireless Staff
Phones, Staff Terminals, etc., there are only a limited number of ways you can answer those calls:
1 Using the (optional) handset.
2 Using the (optional) handset in conjunction with the PTT key—to control when the caller
speaks and when the caller must listen.
3 Using the PTT key alone—to control when the caller speaks and when the caller must listen.
4 Using the PTT key alone to engage in handsfree conversation.
Page 16 of 71
5 Using the (optional) PC Console to select a call—and then using either the handset or PTT to
connect with the caller.
Additional Handset Considerations

If the Console is idle (no calls present) and calls arrive while you are off hook, you may also
answer the call by pressing and releasing the hook switch.
If calls arrive while you are off hook, you may also answer a specific call by pressing its
associated Line Selector key.
While in Handset communication pressing Cancel will not cause the system to automatically
answer any stacked calls.
Technical Note
The system supports two communication modes: 1) full-duplex (allowing both the caller and the
operator to speak simultaneously) or 2) half-duplex (where only the caller or operator may speak at
any one time).
Communication that takes place exclusively over the Handset is always full-duplex.
Communication that takes place using the PTT key can be either full or half-duplex.
• If you push and hold the PTT key for one second or less, the system will enter full-duplex
mode; if you push and hold the PTT for two seconds or more, the system will enter half-
duplex mode. In half-duplex, only you (the operator) or caller will be able to talk at a given
time. The operator will press and hold the Push-to-Talk and speak to the caller and then
release the Push-to-Talk to listen to the caller. Once the system enters half-duplex mode, it
will remain in that mode for the duration of the communication.
• Lifting the Handset at any time during PTT-initiated communication causes the system to
enter full-duplex mode.
Top Line vs. Line Select

You can either answer the call appearing in the Top display line or use one of the Line Selector
keys to select any of the stacked calls.
Top Line Options

You can either use the Handset or PTT key to “automatically” answer calls that appear on the
Top line of the display:
To Answer Top Line Calls using the Handset:

If you wish to answer the call that appears on the Top line of the display using the Handset:
1 Lift the Handset off hook.
A short tone will sound, indicating you are connected with the station.
The selection indicator will appear to the left of the line (@):
Page 17 of 71
Lifting the Handset will

automatically connect you
with the Top Line caller.
Figure 12: Answer Top Line Calls—Handset
2 Begin speaking.
3 Return the Handset to its hook, or press Cancel to end the call.
If a call is canceled at the Console or its originating station using Cancel, the next stacked call will
shift to the Top display line. To answer this new “Top line” call:
1 (With the Handset still off hook) quickly depress the hook switch or press Push-to-Talk.
• You’ll be automatically connected to that caller.
2 Begin speaking.
3 Press Cancel to end the call or return the Handset to its hook when you’ve finished.
To Answer Top Line Calls without Using the Handset:

If you wish to answer the call that appears on the Top line of the display without using the
Handset:
1 Press the Push-to-Talk key for fewer than two (2) seconds, and begin speaking.
Page 18 of 71
Pressing PTT (with the

Handset on hook) will
automatically connect you
with the Top Line caller.
Figure 13: Answer Top Line Calls—PTT
2 Press Cancel to end the call.
Manual-Select Options
You can either use the Handset or PTT key in conjunction with the Line Selector Keys to
“manually” answer stacked calls (those that appear on any line other than the Top line).
Note: pressing the PTT key for fewer than two (2) seconds will allow you and the patient to speak
simultaneously during communication; pressing it for longer than two (2) seconds will allow you
to control when the patient can speak.
To Manually Answer Calls Using the Handset:

If you wish to answer any pending call not shown on the Top Console display line using the
Handset…
1 Locate the call in the call list.
If necessary, use the Line Scroll keys to view stacked calls not already on display.
2 Press the Line Selector key associated with the appropriate call.

Placing Calls
When placing a call to any station, to another Console or to any Staff Terminal, keep the
following in mind:
If you attempt to place a call while the system is busy, the Console will sound a single “error
tone” and display the “audio busy” message. You can either wait for an automatic connection
with the Handset off hook, or hang up and try later.
If you attempt to enter an invalid room number, the Console will respond with the “invalid
number” error message and sound an error tone.
Placing a Call
You can place a call to 1) a Bed station, 2) a Staff station, 3) a Console, or 4) a Staff Terminal
with or without the Handset.
When multiple beds exist within a single room, station dialing numbers must include bed
information. Even though beds are typically lettered (A, B, C, and so on), the dialing number must
contain a numeric equivalent. That is A=1, B=2, C=3, and so on.
Placing a Call Using the Handset (On Hook):

With the handset on hook…
1 Use the keypad to enter the dialing number.
Should you wish to dial a particular Bed station in a room, use the “Bed” key (:) to separate
Room and Bed entries. For example, to connect with room 3045, bed “C,” dial 3-0-4-5:3
(where the first four digits represent Room 3045, the colon serves as the “Bed” key, and the
final digit represents the “C” Bed). Should you wish to any other destination, enter the
number—without the “Bed” key.
The dialed numbers will appear on the top Console display line:

Monitoring Room Stations

You can use the Monitor function to listen-in on one, several, or a maximum of twenty (20)
rooms from the Console; regardless of the number of rooms you monitor, you can only monitor
those rooms not set for Privacy.
If you select a single room, you can continue the monitoring process for as long as you wish. If
you select multiple rooms, the system automatically cycles from room to room after a
predetermined duration. You can use the Pause/Slower/Faster menus to change the monitor rate.
You cannot use the Console during monitoring procedures. If a call arrives at the Console during
any type of monitoring, the process is temporarily halted. When the Console returns to an Idle
