The RS-232 ports support the communication protocols for data exchange between
the device and, for example, the following external medical or non-medical devices:
– Hemodynamic monitors
– Data management systems
– Standard RS-232-to-Ethernet converters (with encryption and authorization)
The transmitted data contains the following information, for example:
– Settings
– Measured values
– Waveforms
– Text messages
– Alarm status
Further information on the interface is provided in the MEDIBUS documentation.
The documents are only available in English. Before data transmission, note the
documentation on the following communication protocols:
MEDIBUS.X
MEDIBUS.X, Rules and Standards for Implementation
MEDIBUS.X, Profile Definition for Data Communication V1.n
MEDIBUS.X is the MEDIBUS standard. If this communication protocol is used, all
data can be transmitted. In combination with MEDIBUS.X, the device meets the
requirements of the ISO 80601-2-55:2018 standard.
The following data is transmitted over the interface without encryption:
– Therapy data with details of age, weight, and height of the patient
The data can be used to transmit alarm signals to improve the clinical process.
Alarm signals are transmitted without confirmation from the receiving device. This
data must not be used to replace the medical device as the primary alarm source.
Alarm conditions are only transmitted in the network if they are active during an
active query from a connected device. An alarm history is not transmitted.
Note: Every connected device must be marked with the following precautionary
statement: Alarm signals may not always be received
Required properties
The RS-232 port is used to establish a point-to-point connection.
A connected device must meet the following requirements:
– Only authorized persons may have access to the data transmitted via the RS-
232 port.
– All device interfaces must be protected against malware and computer viruses.
– If commercially available RS-232-to-Ethernet converters are used, the operating
organization is responsible for the use and correctness of the data.
