Transferring Error Logs

General

Configuration: Transferring Error Logs
NOTE
The Unity Network software option must be enabled before the error
logs may be transferred over the network to a central station.
The following procedure describes how to copy the patient monitor and
parameter module error logs and then transfer them to a diskette at the
Centralscope central station. To transfer error files from a Clinical
Information Center (CIC), refer to the GE Prism Information Field
Service Manual.
A Centralscope or CIC central station can perform normal patient data
display tasks and act as a remote terminal. The remote terminal function
is useful for retrieving, viewing, and saving error logs from any GE
patient monitoring equipment communicating on the Unity Network.
Through a series of menus, a device such as a monitor, another central
station, or parameter module, can be selected in any Care Unit. Then a
device error log for a particular day may be chosen.
Once the desired error log is selected it can be copied over the network to
a floppy diskette in the central station's floppy diskette drive. Since the
error logs are text files they can be read into other computers and using
most text editors or word processing applications.
Use the following procedure to transfer error files from a Centralscope
central station.
CAUTION
This procedure is intended for use by service personnel
with advanced troubleshooting skills. Do not
"experiment" with these commands! The consequences of
misuse include loss of patient data, corruption of the
central station operating software, or disruption of the
entire Unity Network.
