HL7 Outbound
Any HIS that communicates with the HL7 Outbound application with monitor 
must act as the server. The monitor tries to open a connection on a 
preconfigured specific IP address and port.
The monitor will connect with the server once the server port is established. The 
monitor continuously tries to connect to the HIS on a regular periodic interval 
using the auto connection feature. The monitor transfers the HL7 messages to 
the HIS server by TCP/IP socket connection and will retry the message up to 
three times. 
When monitor already has admitted patient but no valid measurement data, the 
monitor will not send out HL7 message to the EMR system.
HIS Disconnection or Network Outage
If the device or the HIS server connection is interrupted from the network (e.g., 
disconnected, in transport, etc.), the trended data for that time period will be lost.
NOTE: GE recommends that you enabling the HL7 acknowledgment option in 
monitor’s service menu. Disabling this option may miss some data, if 
the HL7 receiver system has the feature of sending acknowledge 
message.
