Real-Time Serial Output
The 9847V provides real-time data output capability via the pulse oximeter sensor connector (a 9-pin
Sub-D connector). The sensor connector pin assignments are listed in table 6.
Table 6: Pulse Oximeter Sensor Connector Pin Assignments
Real-time data can also be transmitted to another device through the serial data infrared link (sensor
connector) at the top of the device. Refer to figure 2 on page 7 for the location of the sensor connector.
The information from the device in the real-time mode is sent in an ASCII serial format at 9600 baud
with 9 data bits, 1 start bit, and 1 stop bit. The data are output at a rate of once per second.
NOTE: The 9th data bit is used for parity in memory playback mode. In real-time mode, it is
always set to the mark condition. Therefore, the real-time data may be read as 8 data bits, no
parity.
Real-time data may be printed or displayed by compatible devices. On power up a header is sent
identifying the format and the time and date. Thereafter, the data are sent once per second by the
device in the following format:
HH:MM:SS SPO2=XXX HR=YYY
NOTE: Marked events will display as an asterisk (*) at the end of the line.
Where:
• "HH" represents the hour set on the real-time clock
• "MM" represents the minutes
• "SS" represents the seconds
• "XXX" represents the SpO
• "YYY" represents the pulse rate
The SpO
and pulse rate will be displayed as "---" if there are no data available for the data reading.

If a breath was detected in the previous interval a "B" will be appended to the data line.
