Room Entered
The Room Entered Rule is used to detect when someone enters a resident’s room.
The infrared motion sensor located in the doorway is activated and then the ceiling motion sensor inside the suite is activated when a person enters the room. The Vigil System interprets this sequence of sensor activation as “Room Entered”.
Room Departed
The Room Departed rule is used to monitor when someone leaves a resident’s room.
The infrared motion sensor located on the ceiling inside the room is activated and then the doorway motion sensor is activated when a person exits the room. The Vigil System interprets this sequence of sensor activation as “Room Departed”.
Canceling a Room Enter/Depart
To clear a Room Enter or Room Depart use the Staff Cancel Switch on the outside of the room. Turn the switch OFF for a minimum of 5 seconds, then turn it back on again. This will cancel the call.
