3.2 Device Design
The three modules monitoring unit, patient box and defibrillator/pacer can
operate via an infrared connection or, if separated, via radio connection.
The connection status is shown on the display of the monitoring unit (see Table
4-2, page 36) and the patient box (see Table 4-3, page 39).
Communication between the modules in semi-modular and modular use is
performed by radio up to a distance of 10 m in open terrain.
In the connected mechanically state, the modules communicate via an optical
infrared connection.
If the radio connection is interrupted, the modules have to be connected to each
other mechanically. The corpuls
3
switches automatically from radio
connection to infrared connection in this case.
The antenna of the radio unit in the patient box is located at the top. In case the
antenna is shadowed, for example by metallic or metallised objects, the
maximal reach of the radio connection may be reduced. This may happen, for
example, when the patient box is placed between the patient’s legs on the
stretcher. If possible, choose a position for the patient box that allows
unimpeded view to the other modules.
