Frequently Asked Questions
Compatibility
The BellMe wireless nurse call system does not make use of intercoms as this requires wiring and sometimes end up being more of a hassle than what it is worth. Please speak to a consultant for options available to allow two-way communication via our cameras that work with Wi-Fi. |
No, if you have a wireless infrastructure at your establishment it will not interfere with the BellMe nurse call system and vice versa. Our system works on a radio frequency of 433.92MHz and would not interfere with the mentioned equipment unless they are also running on 433.92MHz. |
BellMe does not recommend using another system’s items with the BellMe products as our Nurse Call System works on a radio frequency of 433MHz and we cannot guarantee that another system other than our own will be compatible. |
Technical
The BellMe nurse call system works on a 433.92MHz frequency |
Unfortunately, the frequency of the BellMe nurse call system cannot be changed. |
You will start needing signal repeaters when the distance between your calling point and receiver reaches anything from 250m in line of sight. The ultimate answer will depend on the surroundings and features of your property. The only way to accurately determine this is by doing a site inspection and test. |
Not at all, the BellMe nurse call system does not require an internet connection to operate as it works on a radio frequency of 433.92MHz. You will only require an internet connection if you wish to download the reporting software, but once it has been downloaded the internet connection is no longer needed. |
Installation
The PC or Laptop that you would like the BellMe nurse call system software to run on needs to have Windows XP or higher and need to be switched on at all times while being connected to the display panel via a LAN Cable of no longer of 10m. |
The BellMe nurse call system is wireless as the buttons only require batteries and works on a radio frequency of 433.92MHz. Each display panel and LED Light will require a power source. We recommend using dedicated plug points in the ceilings to avoid them from being unplugged by mistake. We provide the power cable which makes use of a 2-pin plug point. All our power cables are 12V. We also recommend that you run these through a UPS to avoid any damage or downtime in the case of power outages. |
Feature
Yes, all BellMe nurse call system buttons are waterproof. We do, however, recommend using the Single Key Call & Cancel buttons in more accident-prone areas such as showers and toilets etc. |
The BellMe nurse call system buttons do have a light that comes on while you are pressing it but once you let go of the button the light will also go off. The purpose of the light is for the person pressing it to have visual confirmation that their alert is being sent out to the receiver. |

Yes, one BellMe nurse call system button can be linked to unlimited receivers. |
Maintenance
The battery life of your nurse call system buttons depends on how often the button is pressed. We recommend checking the batteries every 6 months. When you press the button and the light flickers or is very dim, you will know that the battery is low and needs changing. Some establishments have used the same batteries for over 5 years! |
The battery life depends on the use of the wristwatch. We recommend you check the watch after each shift. You will also be able to see the batery life displayed on the wristwatch. |
Alert
The last call that comes through to the nurse call system receiver will be the first one that gets cancelled. Should you have individual cancel buttons for each call button then the cancel button you press will determine which call is cancelled . |
Please refer to our Products page for individual videos showcasing the sound of each product. |

Unfortunately, the BellMe nurse call system LED light only has one volume. You do however have the option to mute the LED light and have it flash only with no noise. |

The BellMe nurse call system wristwatch will only alert you once. The calling information will remain displayed on the watch until it has been cancelled by pressing the ENT button, but it will unfortunately not continue to make a noise to remind you. |
The BellMe nurse call system sends an alert to your chosen receiver on the same property wirelessly, via radio frequency, and unfortunately does not link to emergency services. |
