As a Staff Station, the IR330 provides reliable full-duplex, hands-free communication between the nurse master station and utility room, examination rooms, staff break rooms, or any location where staff members may need to originate calls or where call cords or pillow speakers are not required. Calls are placed using either the customizable staff emergency button or the staff call button. Multicolored LEDs on the panel indicate that a call has been placed and that the intercom is in use. As an additional feature, the staff station is field programmable to function as a patient station, if desired.
