摘要:
A network system prevents portable wireless remote control consoles from unintendedactivation of a medical device by determining if the console is located in a workingspace within a medical care room. Transceiver locator devices determine theposition of the remote control consoles and send information to room controlunits indicating when a console is within the desired working space. The roomcontrol unit receives signals from the remote control console in the workingspace to control medical devices. The room control unit can also determine whichof multiple remote control consoles within the working space is permitted tooperate the medical devices. Each room control unit can send a presence outputto the remote control console to enable use thereof. The remote control consolecan have an orientation sensor or a grip detector to prevent unintended operationthereof.
