6 Managing Configuration
6.1 Introduction
When performing continuous monitoring on a patient, the clinical professional often needs to adjust the monitor’s
settings according to the patient’s condition. The collection of all these settings is called a configuration. Allowing you to
configure the monitor more efficiently, the monitor offers different sets of configuration to suit different patient
categories and departments. You can change some settings from a certain set of configuration and then save the
changed configuration as a user configuration.
The default configurations provided for your monitor are department-oriented. You can choose either from:
General
OR
ICU
NICU
CCU
Each department has three different sets of configurations tailored for adult, pediatric and neonatal patients.
WARNING
The configuration management function is password protected. The configuration management tasks must
be performed by clinical professionals.
The system configuration items can be classified as:
Parameter configuration items
These items relates to parameters, e.g., waveform gain, alarm switch, alarm limits.
Conventional configuration items
These items define how the monitor works, e.g., screen layout, record, print and alarm settings.
User maintenance items
These items relates to user maintenance settings, e.g., unit setup, time format and data format.
For the important configuration items and their default values and user maintenance items, see C Default
Configurations.
