Parameter Settings Transfer

Parameter modules which are labeled on the front with a small “T” in the upper right hand corner can be transported from one rack to another (or from one Philips system to another) and still keep their parameter settings.

Note—There are a few modules that may or may not be marked with a “T” that DO transfer parameter settings. They are: M1006A, M1016A, M1006A- #CO1, M1029A, M1006B, M1032A, M1012A, M1012A #C10, M1034A. Any other module without a “T” does not transfer parameter settings.

The settings (such as alarm limits) are stored inside the module. You could even unplug a satellite rack full of these modules from one monitor, and plug it into another monitor without losing the parameter settings. This behavior permits fast and easy transport, and is called “Parameter Settings Transfer”.

Note—The settings that are stored in each module are detailed in the relevant module chapters of this guide.

For Parameter Settings Transfer to work on your monitor, it must be set ON in a special Service Mode, either by your biomedical engineering department or the Philips service engineer.

After making changes to parameter settings, wait about 10 seconds until the new settings are stored in the relevant module before removing the module.

After plugging in a module, wait about 10 seconds to let the monitor read the settings before opening the Task Window.

After switching on the system or going into Monitor mode from Config mode, the first 30 seconds are used to store settings from the system to the modules. Modules plugged in after this initial 30 second period are capable of keeping their settings.

You can change parameter settings either:
