1. GENERAL INFORMATION Intended Use The Emfit Nocturnal Epileptic Tonic-Clonic Seizure Monitor (device model D-1090-2G and sensor model L-4060SL) is intended to be used for monitoring a person with epilepsy in a bed or on a chair and notifying caregiver of an over preset continued tonicclonic seizure, with muscle jerkings. The product consists of a bed sensor and a control unit. The control unit has an audible notification sound and a dry-contact output for connecting it to a nurse-call system or to a safety phone.
Control Unit The control unit D-1090-2G activates for monitoring after it has noticed movements or micro movements, such as caused by respiratory movements or heart beating, for over 40 seconds. Notification is triggered if movements are faster than preset frequency threshold (2Hz or 3 Hz) and continue over preset delay time or all the movements disappear. The control unit processes a low voltage (from about 1 mV up to about 1 V), high impedance signal from the dynamic, quasi-piezoelectric type (i.e. self-biased) flexible film-like sensor. The control unit operates with 2 pcs AA size 1.5 V alkaline batteries. An optional AC adapter is available (5 VDC). AC ADAPTERS OTHER THAN ORIGINAL ACCESSORIES FROM EMFIT MUST NOT BE USED. (MODEL: NO GTM41060-1505 AND P/N:WR9QA3000LCP-N-MNK) The control unit has input connectors for the sensor (marked as X3) and optional AC adapter (marked as X1). There is also a connector marked as X2 for connecting the device to other systems for transferring the notification via dry-contact opto-coupler. A reset switch for turning off the notification sound is to the right of the sensor input (marked as SW1). Inside the device there is a place for 2 pcs AA size 1.5 V batteries, and mini-switches (DIP and rotary) for program settings.
Under Mattress Bed Sensor The Emfit under mattress bed sensor model L-4060SL is a quasipiezoelectric, dynamic sensor that has no embedded wires or switches. This specially formulated plastic sheet sensor is placed below mattress, crosswise to the bed, below the chest area. The sensor produces signals from even the slightest micro-movements created when a person is in bed. When there is no movement, it recognizes this as the individual being absent. When there is continued movements with frequency from 3 Hz (or 2 Hz, see 3. DIP switch #3) or more and up to 20 Hz, an internal time counter activates. If these movements continue over the preset delay (10, 13, 16, or 20 seconds), it gives a notification by sound and by dry-contact output. There are no particular size or weight limitations, but sensitivity and ability to recognize user presence as well as those movements that should trigger notification, need to be tested in each case.
2. PACKAGE CONTENTS - Control unit - Bed sensor - Wall mounting clip - 2 screws - 2 locking anchors - This user’s manual - Optionally a power supply
Open the cover by lifting from one side
3. BEFORE USE SELECT THE RIGHT DIP SWITCH SETTINGS Inside the device there is a DIP switch with 8 small switches. These are used for various program settings. See the following table and set up the switches for your preferred use. To open the device cover, see the picture on right.

No Movements Notification / Switch #5 The device can be set to trigger notification when system does not notice any movements or micro movements (for example when person leaves the bed). As factory default this switch is at OFF position ie. notification is enabled. ALWAYS REMOVE BATTERIES AND UNPLUG THE AC ADAPTER (IF IN USE) BEFORE MAKING CHANGES TO THE DIP SWITCH POSITIONS. OTHERWISE THE NEW SETTINGS WILL NOT TAKE EFFECT.
4. SETTING THE SENSITIVITY Sensitivity can be adjusted with 10 position rotary switch inside. Factory default setting is the pointer pointing to #3. In case device does not notice individual’s micro movements, adjust sensitivity higher by turning the pointer clock-wise one position per time. If the device notices movements even though no one is in bed, lower sensitivity by turning the screw counter-clockwise one position per time. Always test after every change before putting into use.
5. INSTALLING THE BED SENSOR BELOW MATTRESS ALWAYS INSTALL THE SENSOR CROSSWISE TO THE BED AT THE POSITION BELOW THE CHEST. CHECK THE CORRECT PLACEMENT OF THE SENSOR AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK. IF YOU USE THE SENSOR ON A SPRING MATTRESS, PLACE THE SENSOR BETWEEN THE MATTRESS PAD AND THE SPRING MATTRESS! IF THE BED HAS A SPRING MATTRESS, WITHOUT MATTRESS PAD, AND A BOX-SPRING BELOW SPRING MATTRESS, SENSOR CAN BE INSTALLED BETWEEN THE SPRING MATTRESS AND THE BOX. IN THAT CASE INSTALL SOME DURABLE (ABOUT 2-3 MM), THICK PLASTIC OR PLYWOOD SHEET ON TOP AND BELOW OF THE SENSOR TO AVOID SPRINGS DAMAGING THE SENSOR. THIN SOFT CUSHION BETWEEN THE SHEETS AND SENSOR IS PREFERRED. SET THE DIP SWITCH #4 UP. THE SENSOR MUST ALWAYS BE PLACED BENEATH A MATTRESS OR MATTRESS PAD. SENSOR MUST NOT BE IN DIRECT CONTACT WITH A PERSON!
THE
THE EMFIT BED SENSOR IS DESIGNED TO WITHSTAND USE BELOW THE MATTRESS, AGAINST A HARD BED BOTTOM FOR 4 – 5 YEARS OF USE. MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDS REPLACING IT AFTER 6 YEARS FROM MANUFACTURING DATE OR AFTER 5 YEARS OF USE, WHICHEVER COMES FIRST. WHEN USED ON TOP OF A SPRING MATTRESS, THE USE TIME IS MUCH SHORTER DUE TO MORE WEAR AND TEAR CAUSED WHEN PERSON IS IN BED. THIS WEAR AND TEAR CAUSES THE SENSOR TO WRINKLE. WITH SPRING MATTRESSES, A PERSON’S WEIGHT AND RESTLESSNESS CAN AFFECT THE USE TIME. THE ESTIMATED USE TIME IN A SPRING MATTRESS BED IS 1–2 YEARS. IF USED IN SUCH CIRCUMSTANCES, MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDS REPLACING THE SENSOR WHEN IT LOOKS WEAR OUT AND LATEST AFTER 3 YEARS OF USE. WARRANTY DOES NOT APPLY IF BED SENSOR IS DAMAGED DUE TO NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR! DO NOT USE WITH ANTI-DECUBITUS MATTRESS (USED FOR PREVENTING BED-SORES), WHERE AIR PRESSURE IS CONTROLLED WITH COMPRESSOR.
6. CONNECTORS AND WIRING Connectors are marked with X1, X2 and X3. These are: X1 - Power supply connector. Use only GlobTek Inc. power supply, model no: GTM41060-1505 and P/N:WR9QA3000LCP-N-MNK, available as original acessory from Emfit. X2 - Aux connector for connecting the device to some other system (cable not included) for transferring the notification via a dry-contact opto-coupler. DRY-CONTACT OUTPUT OF THE X2 (AUX) CONNECTOR CAN ONLY BE CONNECTED TO A SYSTEM SAFETY VOLTAGE INPUT WITH MAX VOLTAGE BELOW 25V (AC) / 60V (DC), WHERE BOTH POLES HAVE BEEN SEPARATED FROM THE ELECTRICAL NETWORK (SO CALLED FLOATING APPLIED PART).

8. INSTALLING BATTERIES AND BATTERY CONSUMPTION Product operates with 2 pcs AA size 1.5 V batteries. Install and remove the batteries as follows:
Open the cover by lifting from one side
Install 2 pcs good quality alkaline AA size 1,5 V alkaline batteries according the polarity drawings on the circuit board
When removing old batteries, they are easiest to remove by lifting from + ends
Estimated battery life is 6 months, when using high quality alkaline batteries, with 2800 mAh capacity (2pcs). Estimation is based on measured battery consumption in various conditions and then a calculation where device is on 50% of time (shut down 50% of time) and of that 50% of time there is someone in bed 75% of that time, there are two notifications per day and sound notification is on 30 seconds each time.
WHEN THE BATTERIES ARE GETTING LOW, THE RED LED BEGINS TO FLASH SLOWLY, A “BEEP” SOUND WILL BE HEARD AFTER EVERY 1,5 HOURS AND THE DRY-CONTACT OUTPUT GIVES LOW BATTERY NOTIFICATION AFTER EVERY 3 HOURS.
9. ABOUT THE OPTIONAL 5V AC ADAPTER For preparing the optional power supply for use, do the following:
Remove the plastic cover
Pick up suitable adapter from the included 4 pcs
Install the adapter and make sure it stays in place
THE EMFIT EPILEPTIC TONIC-CLONIC SEIZURE ALARM IS DESIGNED AND TESTED TO BE USED ONLY WITH GLOBTEK INC. POWER SUPPLY MODEL: NO GTM41060-1505 AND P/N:WR9QA3000LCP-N-MNK. ANY OTHER TYPE OF AC ADAPTER MAY AFFECT THE PRODUCT’S SAFETY. The power supply is equipped with a blue indicator light; when the light is on the power supply is in use. If the light is off and the power supply is connected to the mains outlet, the power supply is probably damaged and should be replaced. WHEN THE AC ADAPTER IS CONNECTED TO THE POWER INPUT, THE BATTERIES ARE ELECTRICALLY DISCONNECTED. IN CASE OF NO MAINS POWER AND AC ADAPTER CORD IS CONNECTED TO X1, THE BATTERIES INSIDE WILL NOT OPERATE AS BACK UP POWER SUPPLY.

10. LED-LIGHT INDICATORS 1. Green LED / Presence - The green light starts blinking slowly (half the speed of blue light) when the device notices micro or other movements (person goes to bed) - The green light starts blinking same speed with blue light when the device has noticed micro and/or other movements (person in bed) for 40 seconds and it activates for presence monitoring. - The green light blinks rapidly when device notices movements with frequency between 3-20 Hz (2-20 Hz if DIP switch #3 is ON) - The green light blinks every 4th time of the blue light after device has triggered no movement notification, until SW1 is pressed shortly or there is movements or micro movements (person has returned to the bed) for at least 40 seconds.
1. Green 2. Blue 3. Red
2. Blue LED / Power ON - Standby - The blue light blinks slowly when the device is ON - The blue light blinks fast for a short moment when the device triggers a notification 3. Red LED / Fault - The red light blinking quickly means the sensor is not connected or sensor is broken. A notification sound is heard first time 10 seconds after device notices sensor fault, and then after every 45 seconds. Dry-contact output gives notification first time after 30 seconds and then after every 30 minutes, until proper sensor is plugged. - The red light blinking slowly means replace the batteries. A notification sound is after every 1 ½ hours and dry-contact output gives low battery notification after every 3 hours until batteries are replaced.
11. SW1 - RESET SWITCH / ON-OFF SWITCH / BY-PASS SWITCH SW1 As a Reset Switch When the notification sound is activated, it can be silenced by briefly pressing the the SW1 switch (see picture). A beep-beep sound is also heard. In case of faster continued movements, when the faster movements have stopped the sound will also stop. In case of no movement notification, when person returns to the bed the sound will stop after about 40 seconds.
SW1 As a On-Off Switch When the ON-OFF switch function is enabled from DIP-switch #5, the SW1 switch functions also as ON-OFF switch. To turn the device ON or OFF, just press the SW1 switch for about 3 seconds. A “beep” sound is heard when turning the device ON. A beepbeep-buup sound is heard when turning the device OFF.
SW1 As a No Movement Notification By-Pass Switch The no movement notification can be bypassed if a person wants to leave the bed without causing a notification. This means that the person can be away from the bed without time limits. Exit-delay will not be activated until the person is back on the bed and then leaves again. When the no movement notification is enabled from DIP-switch #4, to bypass the notification, press the SW1 switch before the exit-delay time is up. Control-unit informs of a successful by-pass by beep-beep sound. The SW1 switch can also be pressed just before getting up off the bed to by-pass the notification. After pressing the SW1 switch, person has 20 seconds to completely exit the bed. If this is not done, device re-activates automatically.
12. TESTING AND INSPECTIONS Weekly Inspection 1.
Inspect that all wires are in good condition.
2.
Check that the sensor is positioned correctly below chest position, across the bed.
8
Tests When Taking into Use and Every Month Do the following tests at least once a month and when putting into use, to ensure the system’s proper operation! Testing the “no movements” notification 1.
Check to see if system is turned on. If disabled, set on the “no movement” notification function (DIP switch 5 at OFF position). Check that the device is ON (blue LED-light is blinking slowly).
2.
Have the person lay still on the bed on his/her right side for at least 2 minutes. System should notice person’s micro movements immediately, and the green occupancy LED indicator will start to blink slowly, every second time the blue LED blinks. Green LED should blink continuously the entire time person is in bed. System activates after noticing movements or micro movements for 40 seconds. At that time the green LED starts blinking at same time with blue LED. If the device won’t detect the presence of a person (green LED light is not blinking) move to chapter 12 troubleshooting. If the green light goes off for long periods of time and the no movement notification is triggered, adjust sensitivity higher (see 4, setting the sensitivity). If the green light blinks continuously, while the person is laying still on their right side, the sensitivity level is correct.
3.
Now ask the person to leave the bed. The no movement notification should be triggered after about 5 - 10 seconds, when person has left the bed and no one is touching the bed, sensor or wires. If the notification doesn’t work and the green light continues blinking, see chapter 13 troubleshooting.
Testing the faster movements notification 1.
Simulate continued fast movements, for example, by tapping the mattress just above the sensor.
2.
During the tapping, the green light should start blinking faster.
3.
The device should make the notification sound after the delay time (10, 13 16 or 20 sec) has passed.
13. TROUBLESHOOTING ALWAYS CHECK FIRST THAT INSTALLATION IS CORRECT AND TEST THE DEVICE PROPERLY AFTER EVERY ADJUSTMENT. Notification is not getting forward via the other system the device is connected to; •
Check that the connection cable is connected correctly and it is in good condition. Often the wire uses at both ends same connector but wiring order is not the same. Make sure it is connected the right way!
Notification sound does not operate; •
Check the volume level.
False notifications without reason: •
Check the condition, positioning and connection of the bed sensor.
•
Is the no movement notification in use? If yes, check the sensitivity according to chapters 4 and 11. It may be that sensitivity is not set properly and device cannot occasionally detect any micro-movements.
Notice! Any movements that are between 3 Hz (or 2 Hz if enabled) and 20 Hz frequency and have continued over preset delay time will trigger the notification. The device does not trigger no movements notification and the green light is blinking even if there is no one on the bed •
Check for possible external disturbances on the bed sensor and its cable. Remove any external disturbances causing vibrations.
•
Check the sensor and its cable. A broken sensor or cable may cause disturbances to the signal so that the green light blinks all the time. Usually this is detected by the device itself and red light starts blinking. Also, sensor cable should be away from any main outlet cables and should not be hooked to the AC adapter cable.
•
If the cable and the sensor seem to be in order, try reducing the sensitivity as some external vibrations may cause this. See also chapters 4 and 11.
The device does not trigger no movement notification and the green light is off when there is no one on the bed: •
Is the green light blinking when there is someone in bed? If not, check the sensor and its cable.
•
Check that the device is switched ON. It is ON if the blue LED light is blinking slowly. If it is not blinking, press the SW1 switch for about 4 seconds.
•
Check the sensitivity setting of the device when a person remains still on the bed. Green light should be blinking and system activate after person has been in bed for 40 seconds. If necessary increase the sensitivity.
Please never hesitate to contact manufacturer for any problems with use! All feedback is highly appreciated! 9

Compliance level
Electromagnetic environment – guidance Portable and mobile RF communications equipment should be used no closer to any part of the The Emfit Nocturnal Epileptic Tonic-Clonic Seizure Monitor , including cables, than the recommended separation distance calculated from the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter. Recommended separation distance

where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer and d is the recommended separation distance in metres (m). Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters, as determined by an electromagnetic site survey, should be less than the compliance level in each frequency range. Interference may occur in the vicinity of equipment marked with the following symbol:
NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies. NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people. a Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the [EQUIPMENT or SYSTEM] is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the [EQUIPMENT or SYSTEM] should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the [EQUIPMENT or SYSTEM]. b Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than [V1] V/m.

Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the [EQUIPMENT or SYSTEM] The Emfit Nocturnal Epileptic Tonic-Clonic Seizure Monitor is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the Emfit epileptic seizure alarm can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the Emfit Nocturnal Epileptic Tonic-Clonic Seizure Monitor alarm as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d in metres (m) can be determined using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer. NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies. NOTE 2 The ISM (industrial, scientific and medical) bands between 150 kHz and 80 MHz are 6,765 MHz to 6,795 MHz; 13,553 MHz to 13,567 MHz; 26,957 MHz to 27,283 MHz; and 40,66 MHz to 40,70 MHz. NOTE 3 An additional factor of 10/3 is used in calculating the recommended separation distance for transmitters in the ISM frequency bands between 150 kHz and 80 MHz and in the frequency range 80 MHz to 2,5 GHz to decrease the likelihood that mobile/portable communications equipment could cause interference if it is inadvertently brought into patient areas. NOTE 4 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.
