A&D Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitor Data Transfer, Data Transmission to a Printer

Page 27

Data Transfer

The recorder transfers data to a printer or computer using the RS-232C terminal.

We recommend analysis of the data using the optional "Doctor Pro" analysis software.

Caution

Cap the RS-232C terminal to prevent dust and foreign matter from entering when this terminal is not in use.

Remove the recorder and cuff from the patient, when the recorder is connected to a printer or computer.

Data Transmission to a Printer

Caution

The recorder intensely consumes the battery power while connected to the RS-232C cable. Disconnect the cable when not actually transferring data.

Maintain the power-on state while transmitting the data so that the data successfully transmitted.

The RS-232C cable is required when connecting to a printer.

The printer (to print the data) must have a serial inter face and adapt to the RS- 232C protocol of the recorder.
