FAQ

Q1: What is the SPM915 used for?
The SPM915 is designed for real-time bed presence, bed occupancy, and in-bed/out-of-bed monitoring in elderly care, rehabilitation centers, and assisted living facilities.

Q2: Does the SPM915 monitor heart rate or respiration?
No. The SPM915 is designed for bed presence and bed occupancy monitoring. For non-contact heart rate and respiration monitoring, the OWON SPM912 is the recommended solution.

Q3: How does the SPM915 work?
The SPM915 uses a pressure sensing pad installed beneath or on the bed to detect bed occupancy and whether a person is in bed or out of bed. Detection results are transmitted through a Zigbee 3.0 network for caregiver monitoring and notifications.

Q4: Does the SPM915 support Zigbee systems?
Yes. The SPM915 supports Zigbee 3.0 and can be integrated with compatible Zigbee gateways and smart elderly care monitoring systems.

Q5: What is the difference between a bed presence sensor and a vital signs monitoring sensor?
A bed presence sensor detects whether a person is in bed or out of bed, while a vital signs monitoring sensor measures physiological data such as heart rate and respiration. The SPM915 focuses on bed occupancy monitoring, whereas the OWON SPM912 is designed for non-contact vital signs monitoring.
