The P162 is based on the familiar infra-red intruder alarm, modified to assist in the
care of those who would be at risk if mobile and unsupervised.
The P162 is perfect for discrete monitoring of clients at night as it is totally portable
and can be placed in the room at any stage and connected to the infrastructure
Nurse Call system.
Nurse Call Connectivity
The P162A is supplied with a lead configured for
use with any Nurse Call or Remote Annunciator
or Telecare (including P117B telephone
autodiallers). The output can offer both normally
open and normally closed switch contacts
Activation
The system is armed by the carer using a small key
fob, who then has 30 seconds to leave the area.
If there is subsequent movement in the room, then
after 4 seconds the output alarm is activated if not
disarmed with the key fob
Power connection
First time activation:
On arrival, remove the battery isolating tab
shown by pulling out.
This handbook is intended to assist carers install, configure and use the monitors.
The carere therefore needs to understand the needs of the user and asses that the
monitor meets those needs and if any supplementary monitoring is needed taking
into account any health risks.
For stand alone systems the P162B features a radio link to the P137/P138 pagers.

Installation
Location:
ŸThe unit has a horizontal window covering approximately 1.5 meters (the
length of a bed) from a distance of 1.5 meters. It also has a narrow vertical win-
dow (±20 cm from the base) at this point. Hence if positioned on the floor
pointing at a bedside, at a distance of 1.5-2.5m, it will detect feet descending to
the floor, while being immune to body movement in bed. This makes it ideal
for monitoring bed vacation,
ŸIf positioned on furniture or wall mounted using the bracket supplied, at a
height of approx. 50 cm above the bed height with a clear view of the bed, it
will detect someone sitting up while being immune to normal movement
around the bed.
ŸIf positioned viewing a door or on a corridor wall at body height it will operate
when someone comes into view, but can be immune to pets etc at floor height.
The range is up to 5 metres.
ŸIt can also be mounted centrally above a door, pointing down. It will then
alarm if someone passes through the doorway., but not if they are further away
than a typical door mat.
To ensure reliable operation it is essential to ensure that there are no sources of
rapid heat change within the viewed area. Such sources could be radiators,
windows, dangling decorations, bathroom doors
Securing
The bracket supplied should be used to secure the main unit to a wall or other fix-
ture. Screws and wall plugs are supplied
Connecting to Nurse Call:
The unit will be supplied with a connector to mate with any specified Nurse Call.
This is often supplied as a an extension lead to the standard RJ22 Female connector,
using the normally open or closed contact as necessary. Plug the unit into the wall
socket, replacing any call button. Alert-iT can supply “splitter adapters” that allow
the call button to be used along with P162.
Pairing the Keyfob
After first enabling the battery power, or following battery replacement, the
supplied keyfob has to be paired with the main unit by pressing ARM while
pointed at the front. The red led should flash and pairing is complete.

Operation
Arming the unit:
Point the key-fob at the unit and press ARM. The red led will flash. You now have
30 seconds to leave the area without triggering the alarm
Disarming:
Point the key-fob at the unit and press DISARM within 4 seconds of entering the
room. The red led will flash.
Detection
Once movement is detected and the 4 second wait is past, then the P162 will oper-
ate the changeover switch and activate the alarm, leaving the front red led illuminat-
ed. After 30 seconds the unit will reset for a brief period to reassess if movement is
continuing. If so the output is re-activated.
Hence it is possible to find the occupant has returned to bed, the P162 appears to be
in standby, but the Nurse Call was triggered.
Cancelling the alarm:
Point the key-fob at the unit and press DISARM, then reset any remote alarm equip-
ment (eg the Nurse Call Wall unit)
Battery Low
If the battery is low, then the red led on the front will remain on without their being
an alarm and will not cancel by pressing DISARM.
Failure of the red keyfob light to flash will indicate the batteries will need replacing
in the keyfob

Cleaning
Use Alert-iT procedure
Technique B
Wiping with cotton wool pads moistened (compressed until dripping stops) with a
mild detergent (0.5% washing up liquid) solution.
Battery
Remove the bottom screw from the rear panel and gently lever up and slide out to
reveal the battery compartment. Ensure the Nurse Call cable slides through the hole
to allow the back panel to be moved clear.
After replacement replace the rear panel, ensuring the cable lies flat so not to bow
the rear panel
The key-fob batteries are replaced by sliding open the cover.

1. Ensure that the output cable is routed and secured to avoid the risk of entanglement or
strangulation.
2. Clean and disinfect each item regularly in accordance with information herein
3. Regularly test as described herein
4. As with all medical electronic equipment there is potential for the equipment to inter-
fere with or be effected by interference from other electrical or electronic devices. For
this reason avoid placing the monitor, sensor or connecting cable in close proximity to
sensitive electronic devices or devices which produce strong electromagnetic fields
such as radio transmitters, mobile phones or power cables.
5. If the equipment is modified in any way, appropriate inspection and testing must be con-
ducted to ensure continued safe use of the equipment.
6. The carer must conduct a risk assessment to determine if the level of reliability offered
by the monitor is sufficient or if additional monitoring is needed. Contact the manufac-
ture for assistance with Risk Evaluation Tools.
7. Additional levels of mechanical protection may be needed for some patient disorders.
Contact the manufacturers for advice
8. Some accessories are fitted with small screws and have plastic bags. Ensure these do
not come into the possession of vulnerable patients who might choke on them

The Alert-it system has been designed with due regard to reliability and integrity. While it offers a highly
vigilant monitoring method,it is always possible that a distress condition can go undetected for a variety
of reasons (including malfunction) and in life threatening situations it is advisable to use the Alert-it
system in conjunction with additional monitoring techniques (e.g. video). Neither the manufacturer nor
its agent can accept legal responsibility to provide a system that is infallible. The carer is responsible for
assessing the risks of using this equipment and any settings pertaining to it.
