Data Connections
Note that any RMS operations require the definition of the appropriate Data Connections, with each
Data Connection associated with the appropriate Data Input and Data Output. Note that the Data Input
and Data Output relationships are defined by the Data Connections, which can create one-to-one, one-
to-many, many-to-one, and many-to-many data processing relationships.
Data Inputs
Data Inputs define how to monitor for alerts in incoming data streams, using a variety of protocols and
methods. Two specialized and protected Data Input types are:
•
Event Processing System – The RMS Event Processing System, when enabled, can act as a Data
Input as it can generate specific types of system level alerts, including:
o
Caregiver call signal from a WaveTrac sensor
o
Proximity detection event for either WaveTrac or Inovonics sensors
o
Wander Proximity detection event for WaveTrac sensors assigned Wander class
monitoring
o
Exit Risk detection event for WaveTrac sensors assigned Wander class monitoring
o
Maintenance class alerts, such as low battery on Inovonics and WaveTrac sensors, and
tamper on Inovonics sensors
•
Messaging Client – The RMS browser based Messaging Client can act as a Data Input. The
population of the Messaging Client Recipients list is dependent upon how the Data Outputs and
Data Connections are configured into the system.
Data Outputs
Data Outputs define how to deliver alerts to outbound data streams, using a variety of protocols and
methods. A specialized and protected Data Output type is the Event Processing System, where alert
events detected from a particular Data Output can be routed to the Event Processing System for further
processing and routing.
Data Connections
Data Connections both associate Data Inputs with Data Outputs and they define how detected alerts
should be routed to the appropriate Data Outputs. Note that any RMS operations require the definition
of the appropriate Data Connections, with each Data Connection associated with the appropriate Data
Input and Data Output.
