While connected to the network, the Propaq CS sends patient data to Acuity.

Acuity continuously analyzes the data and provides appropriate alarm or

alert messages at the Central Station and other network devices such as a

hallway message panel or the Propaq CS itself. Acuity also stores the patient

data for viewing or report printing.

If the Wireless Propaq CS is moved out of range or loses communication with

the FlexNet network and Acuity, it continues to monitor the patient and

display patient data. While not communicating with Acuity, the Propaq CS

continues to generate local patient alarms or alert messages. Acuity does not

perform waveform analysis or generate arrhythmia messages while the

Propaq CS is not communicating with Acuity. When the Wireless Propaq CS

is returned to within range of the FlexNet network, it automatically

reconnects to Acuity.

A Propaq CS with the Acuity hardwire connection can be identified by the

Acuity connector on the right side panel.

A Wireless Propaq CS can be identified by the blue antenna cap on the top

right corner of the monitor in front of the carrying handle. Every Wireless

Propaq CS also has the Acuity hardwire connection.

Wireless Propaq CS

If a Wireless Propaq CS monitor is communicating with the network via the

wireless interface and then the Acuity hardwire cable is used to connect the

bedside Acuity network jack and the monitor, the monitor disconnects from

the wireless connection and communicates through the hardwire connection.

There may be a short interruption in the display of patient waveforms at

Acuity while this change occurs.
