Devices

The serial port is designed to transmit data on a one device to one device serial communications channel. In the connection between the two devices, the ventilator assumes the “slave” role and responds to commands transmitted to it via the serial port by the external “master.” The serial communications port uses a standard RS-232, null modem, pin configuration. The ventilator assumes the serial communications is set up for:

19,200 bits/second baud rate

8 data bits

no parity bit

1 stop bit

Connecting Remote Alarm Port

The ventilator is sent commands that are 4 ASCII characters from the external device and responds with a fixed format message. The commands and the responses are specified in Appendix A, “RS-232 Communications Protocol”.

The ventilator is equipped with a remote alarm port enabling ventilator alarm conditions to be sounded at remote locations away from the ventilator. Pressing ALARM SILENCE deactivates the remote alarm. The ventilator signals an alarm using a normally open or normally closed relay contact. The de- energized state of the relay represents an alarm state (any Medium or High Priority alarm) and the energized state represents no alarms.

The remote alarm port is a standard ¼ inch, female, phono jack (ring, tip, sleeve) connector.
