Modem Interface Module

Introduction

Introduction

The modem interface module allows fetal trace information to be transmitted from a Series 50 A/IP-2 Fetal Monitor to a receiver that is part of an OB TraceVue system.

The modem interface module (with the addition of an approved PCMCIA modem) enables fetal traces to be transmitted over a standard telephone line. The receiver software displays the trace information, allowing it to be reviewed, printed and stored.

Warning

To avoid possible electrical hazards:

Whenever a patient is connected to the fetal monitor the cable to the telephone system must be disconnected.

Never touch open contacts on the cable which is connected to the telephone system.

Fitting the Modem Interface Module

To connect the modem interface module:

1.Remove the cover (or any other interface module) from the Interface Socket on the monitor.

2.Connect the modem interface module to the Interface Socket.

3.Once the module is fitted, secure it in position by fixing it to the base of the monitor with the screw provided.
