IrDA, RS232 and Nursecall Specification

IrDA / RS232 / Nursecall Feature
The IrDA (or RS232 / Nursecall optional feature) is a feature that allows the pump to be connected to an external device for the purpose
of data communication.
The nursecall interface provides a remote backup to the internal audible alarm. It should not be relied upon to
A
replace monitoring of the internal alarm.
Refer to the Technical Service Manual for further information regarding the RS232 interface.
The assessment for the suitability of any software used in the clinical environment to control receive data from the
pump lies with the user of the equipment. This software should include detection of the disconnection or other
failure of the RS232 cable.
Any connected analogue and digital components are required to meet IEC/EN60950 for data processing and IEC/
EN60601 for medical devices. Anyone connecting additional devices to the signal input or output is a system
configurator and responsible for meeting the requirements of the system standard IEC/EN60601-1-1.
To connect to the RS232 port use spare part 1000SP01183 - RS232 cable.
