    Welcome!

    I am considering building a paging system based on the f&radio system from f&f Pabianice.

    The system is to function in a retirement home of about 26 paging.
    Here the main question is whether a wired or wireless system? Come on pulling buses will not be so easy again in this project.

    I have a preference for f&radio because I know it "a little", I have checked the ready-made solutions, e.g. zamel Etero in cost comes out much more expensive. And it is not developmental.
    In the project may appear in the future control of roller shutters, lighting and others? What is the opinion on f&radio ?

    it is a system of very high software capabilities, very high - not underestimated - radio and transmission parameters, with its control and confirmation of operation, and this is important
    all in all I can say I know it well, however for your application I don't know if I would use it (as well as any radio)
    why:
    1. because of the physics, the range of the radio, you have to remember that this system is not mesh but point-to-point - maybe determine the design of the building, I imagine such a building as an elongated, corridor with rooms, and in this system 1 hop in server-repair-appliance can be used
    2. complete lack of peripherals for the senior citizen, such as a key fob, push-button watch, tipping sensor, etc. - there is not much to connect to the devices

    Thank you for speaking up ;) .

    I forgot to describe the building, cubically it is not too big, on the ground floor kitchen and recreation rooms, ew 1 living room, Ip living rooms 9 rooms of which two 2 persons.
    Almost every room with its own bathroom, one general bathroom. IIp attic, utility and social rooms for the staff.

    The external skeleton of the building is made of stone, some partition walls made of cellular concrete, the rest of the steel frame, double boarding with 12mm gk panels, mineral wool filling. Staircase made of solid silica. Ceilings wooden construction, supported by 2 steel T-bars in some places.

    The client wants the call points to be flush-mounted, both in the rooms and in the bathrooms. In another building, he has installed remote control/briefly mounted call points, but is moderately satisfied, as they often get on their feet, the residents take them with them ;) although I assume that in some situations mobile transmitters would be useful, or voice paging?
    The design of the wall layout has changed slightly from what I've found out, and the layout of the rooms themselves is not fully thought out, so a wire-free option would be mildly desirable.

    I was also wondering about the project itself on f&home would a monitor with audible notification in the control pok be sufficient, or build a relay based control panel with lights? Or try to integrate a solution from outside the system ? As well as the possibility of deleting the paging itself in the room, or only by the attendant ? Notification to smartphones for staff, I have no idea whether the staff will have company phones, in which case it would be possible to use an application for notifications and SMS messages, in the absence of company phones, would it be possible to integrate some pagers into the system?

    The investor from oczewikan only had call buttons and a control unit which would display the pagers in the staff room. But I personally think this is a bit of a poor solution.

    And what would you recommend for such a project? My direction in the F&F direction was through a highly developed system which could be used in part in the building.
