6.16 Room Display (NIRD)
The NIRD Room Display (NIRD) combines Ascom interactive messaging (IM) functionality, with a
teleCARE door side module and an RFID card reader in a wall mounted module which is suitable for
use in residents rooms and staff rooms. It has an EBA polyester film membrane which covers the
display and incorporates the buttons, keys and the LEDs.
Important: At least one NIRD serving the property must be permanently installed in a fixed location.
Figure 138. Room Display
The NIRD includes three teleCARE function buttons (red, yellow and green). Each of these buttons has
an LED which illuminates to indicate the activated condition. Three function keys and a scroll button
are included for controlling the display and speech.
The LCD screen measures 2.5in (63mm) x 1.3in (35mm). It displays large, easy to read characters
showing calls and the locations of staffs. Above the LCD screen is a three-color LED which illuminates
to emphasize the type or category of calls received.
The NIRD also includes a buzzer speaker which signals the configured beep codes for the received
messages.
The integrated card reader is an RFID device operating in the 13.56 MHz frequency range. It is used in
combination with contactless smart cards.
The NIRD is an active module and must be connected to the teleCARE IP room bus. It uses two fixed
room bus addresses 6 and 7.
The NIRD has a 5-pole connector for the teleCARE IP speech module and a 4-pin connector for
supporting a passive peripheral bus.
Note: The 4-pole connector terminal required for the room bus and the 8-pole connector
terminal which is required to connect the room bus and a passive peripheral bus are not
supplied with the NIRD. They are available as accessories and must be ordered separately.
