Which iPads work with HallMonitor?
iPad 10th & 11th Gen (Standard)
iPad 7th, 8th & 9th Gen
iPad Pro 11″ & 13″
iPad Air 11″ & 13″
Which EHR systems are supported?
Most EMR systems are compatible with HallMonitor – Epic, Cerner, Allscripts, Athenahealth and others.
How is HallMonitor powered?
A single PoE+ connection is all that’s required to power the lights and the iPad. Alternatively a 12V connection can be used if wired Ethernet is not required.
Which software does HallMonitor work with?
HallMonitor is built around HatchMed’s native ComCierge digital signage & workflow app, but also has full support for patient engagement & EMR apps such as Epic, eVideon, GetWell, Lana Health and Pcare.
What are the customization options?
HallMonitor is fully customizable — from enclosure color, finish, and number plate design to font and room number style. Software is tailored to match existing workflows, built to fit your hospital both visually and operationally.
How do I clean HallMonitor?
Avoid using alcohol as that can degrade the paint. Standard hospital surface wipes work best, be sure to wipe off excess residue to avoid it building up over time.
Can I display my own custom alerts?
Yes, each alert can have its title, color, text, priority and icon edited.
What is the LED illumination used for?
HallMonitor LEDs answer the question of “does the patient need your attention right now”?
They deliver meaningful illumination tied to real-time patient and room status — from fall risk and isolation types to in-room presence, bed disconnects, or even rounding reminders. They’re fully customizable per unit and EMR-connected, helping reduce alarm fatigue by highlighting only what matters, when it matters.

Start by mounting the PoE+ splitter outside the patient room, approximately 55” above the floor, making sure the location allows space for the HallMonitor enclosure to install directly over it. If required by code, install a 2-3/4” deep single gang back box in a 2” x 3” cutout.
Connect the PoE+ cable to the back of the splitter and secure it into the wall. Mount the HallMonitor back panel over the splitter, ensuring the splitter is centered in the cutout. Use wall anchors if installing into drywall.
Plug the blue USB-C cable into the left (blue) port and the green USB-C cable into the right (green) port on the splitter. Adjust the cable length gently as needed. The LEDs should now illuminate a soft white.
Press the iPad into the back panel and connect the charging cable. The iPad should begin charging and connect to wired Ethernet. Slide the front cover on at a downward angle and rotate into place. Secure using the two screws provided at the bottom.
Note: PoE+ splitter may also be powered via a 12V 3A supply, however the iPad will be limited to Wi-Fi.

PoE+ Install
Start by installing the GAT-IW PoE+ splitter outside the patient room, around 48” to 54” above the floor. Ensure there is enough room around it for the HallMonitor enclosure to mount over it.
Secure the back panel of the HallMonitor enclosure to the wall, with the GAT-IW being centered in the cutout. Connect the exposed USB and Ethernet cables into the GAT-IW, at which point you should see the LEDs illuminate a soft white.
Place the iPad inside the back panel and press into place. Carefully plug in the charging cable and verify that the iPad begins charging and is connected to Ethernet. Slide the top cover down at an angle and rotate into place, securing with two screws at the bottom.
12V Install
Terminate 12V power lines around 48” to 54” above the floor. Ensure there is enough room around them for the HallMonitor enclosure to mount over top.
Secure the back panel of the HallMonitor enclosure to the wall, with the power cables being centered in the cutout. Connect the power source 12V wire pair to the pre-terminated wires in the HallMonitor using the enclosed wire nuts. Be sure to match the power cable to the appropriate + / – receiving wire on the HallMonitor to avoid shorting the circuitry.
Place the iPad inside the back panel and press into place. Carefully plug in the charging cable and verify that the iPad begins charging and is connected to Ethernet. Slide the top cover down at an angle and rotate into place, securing with two screws at the bottom.
