      Mounting Somnofy on the ceiling

      This article shows you how to mount Somnofy on the ceiling

       

      This article applies to Somnofy devices only.

      Mounting and placement instructions for Guardian H10 will be covered in a separate article (coming soon).

      • Mount the ceiling bracket so that Somnofy can point towards the chest of the service recipient in bed.
      • Make sure you have safe access to electricity and that the cable is not hanging down from the ceiling.
      • Tip: use a cable rail to ensure that the cable lies still and that it looks nice. You can buy this at most shops that sell electronics (Elkjøp, Power, Biltema, Julia, etc.)
      • Measure the distance from the Somnofy device to the bed, and set this distance in the device settings.

      Attach the ceiling bracket to the ceiling with the cord in it

        • Attach the ceiling bracket using the supplied screws.
        • Drill only on plaster or concrete.
        • The best position on the ceiling is above the chest of the person to be measured.
        • Pull the cable out a little as shown in the picture.
      3 Connect to the Somnofy device
        • Use the "90 degree adapter" as in the picture.
        • Make sure the adapter is properly attached to the Somnofy device.
       

      Push the Somnofy unit to the ceiling mount

        • Carefully pushed into place.
        • It's a good idea to pull the cable out a little at the same time as you push.

      Attach the cord to the ceiling and connect to the power supply

        • Use a cable rail to prevent the cable from hanging down from the ceiling.
        • Connect to power.


      If the distance from the Somnofy unit in the ceiling to the power socket is long, an extra-long cable can be ordered. Contact Vitalthings Support if you need help.
