Pairing Monitoring Devices

You can display measurement data from IntelliVue TRx and TRx+ Transceivers
on IntelliVue Patient Monitors. The transceiver and the monitor must be
assigned to the same patient; this is called "pairing". Once paired, the ECG
source is automatically detected at the Information Center. Should you
subsequently switch the ECG source between the two devices, the change is also
automatically detected at the Information Center.
Networked devices and non-networked devices can be paired, however, there
are differences in device behavior based on network connection status. Devices
can be connected and/or paired via the methods below:
• The transceiver is paired with the monitor at the Information Center
(networked devices only).
• The transceiver is directly connected to the monitor using an interface
cable (IntelliVue MP5/MP5T Patient Monitor only).
• The transceiver is directly connected to a non-networked monitor using an
interface cable to transmit additional parameters (IntelliVue MP5/MP5T
Patient Monitor only).
• The transceiver and monitor are connected wirelessly via short-range
radio capability (IntelliVue MP5/MP5T, MP2 and X2 Patient Monitors
only).
• The transceiver is connected wirelessly via short-range radio capability to
an MP5 or X2 Patient Monitor which is connected to a larger host
monitor.
