Wireless Network Operation
Care Unit and Bed Label Assignments
A wireless monitor receives care unit and bed label assignments
in one of the following ways:
! Automatically when docking at a Docking Station.
! By manual entry via the Patient Admit menu.
When docking at a Docking Station, a wireless monitor automati-
cally accepts the Docking Station’s Care Unit and Bed Label
assignments and communicates with the Infinity network via the
Docking Station. When the monitor undocks, wireless card and
access points take over communication between the monitor and
the network.
When operating in a network without docking stations, you enter
the Care Unit and Bed Label assignments in the Patient Admit
menu (see the following steps).
NOTE: Upon undocking, the monitor can either keep or give up
the bed label assignment it received from the Docking Station,
depending on the network setup performed by Service personnel
during installation.
! If the monitor has been configured to keep the Docking Sta-
tion’s bed label upon undocking, the monitor retains the bed
label as well as its display position at the central station.
! If the monitor has been configured to give up the Docking Sta-
tion’s bed label upon undocking, it either reverts back to a pre-
viously entered bed label, or the user must manually enter a
new care unit and bed label via the Patient Admit menu. If the
bed label entered is already in use, the monitor displays an
error message.
NOTE: After turning a wireless monitor on, it receives a list of
available care units and bed labels from the M
ULTIVIEW WORKSTA-
TION. If this list is not immediately available in the monitor’s
Patient Admit menu, wait until the list has been fully transmitted.
