Transceiver locator devices determinethe position of the remote control consoles and sendinformation to room control units indicating whena console is within the desired working space. Theroom control unit receives signals from the remotecontrol console in the working space to controlmedical devices. The room control unit can alsodetermine which of multiple remote control consoleswithin the working space is permitted to operate themedical devices. Each room control unit can senda presence output to the remote control console toenable use thereof.
