Conventional Call System Operation
Depending on the type of calling devices used, the system can be set up to operate as a standard system on which standard (constant tone) calls are generated, or an emergency system on which standard and emergency (intermittent tone) calls are generated.

Standard Systems
The user calls for assistance by activating a ceiling pull, standard call point, monitoring point or infrared ceiling receiver. A red confidence light on the calling device illuminates to reassure the user that the call has been registered.

At the system’s indicator panel, an indicator light illuminates and a buzzer sounds to inform staff that someone is in need of assistance.  Relevant overdoor lights, remote sounders and area indicators also operate to provide additional audible and visual indication of the call.

Emergency Systems
In addition to doing everything a standard system does, a more urgent level of assistance can be summoned by activating an emergency call via an emergency call point or infrared ceiling receiver.

Once activated, the red confidence light on the calling device will flash to confirm the emergency call has been registered and the relevant indicator panel light and its buzzer will flash and sound a more insistent tone to attract attention. Relevant overdoor lights, remote sounders and area indicators will also pulse to provide audible and visual indication of the emergency call.

Choosing & Planning a System
The type of system required will depend upon the application and the needs of the user.

In residential care homes, a standard system is normally acceptable as the main requirement is for the reset function to be carried out at the source of the call. In nursing homes, however, some authorities insist on standard and emergency call facilities so an emergency system
may be required. In most other applications, such as shops, leisure centres, hotels and public sector buildings, the type of system and devices required will depend almost entirely on what the client needs.

The following points should be considered when designing or planning a call system.

Indicator panels should be sited internally in a clean dry area which is readily accessible to staff.

Call points, ceiling pulls and monitoring points will work on both standard and emergency systems but emergency call points will work on emergency systems only.

Specification / Technical Information

In its simplest form, a conventional call system:
  • Allows the general public, a member of staff or a patient to call for assistance
  • Confirms that the call has got through
  • Makes sure the caller is visited
  • If required, allows extra or more urgent assistance to be summoned using an optional ‘emergency’ call facility

Using the wide variety of options available, the system can also:
  • Inform staff that someone is being attacked via an optional infrared ‘staff attack’ facility
  • Monitor storage cupboards, cash offices and stock rooms for unauthorised access
  • Monitor doorbells, telephones and machinery for activation or failure
  • Send notification of calls to hand-held paging equipment
