connected to the facility's network and power on the instrument. On the instrument screen, in the
upper right corner, the ethernet symbol displays indicang an acve connecon.
• To check a wireless network connecon, remove the i‑STAT Alinity instrument from the base staon.
On the instrument screen, in the upper right corner, the wireless internet symbol displays. This
symbol represents a strong signal. Some or all of the bars in the signal should be lled in,
depending upon the signal strength in the locaon. A locaon that displays the symbol with all bars
