Physical Connectivity

The BDA monitor comes pre-installed in an EMR Bi-Directial Amplifier (BDA) system. When

the BDA system is plugged into a reliable power source the power indicators on the monitor

unit will light/glow. Connect the telephone line included to the RJ11 cable to the port located

at the base of the BDA enclosure.

The door alarm switch triggers an audible and LED alarm as the door opens. The alarm

must be reset from the web interface or reset button on the front of the monitoring unit before

the door is closed and the hysteresis period has lapsed.
