5 Managing Configurations   
 
 
5.1 Overview 
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. 
 
 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. alarm switch, alarm limits.   
  Conventional configuration items 
These items define how the monitor works, e.g., display setup, print and alarm 
settings. 
  User maintenance items 
  These items relates to user maintenance settings, e.g., unit setup, time format. 
 
For the important configuration items and their default values and user maintenance 
items, see Appendix C Default Configurations.
