The Channel range depends on selected Frequency Band and the OB Radio Revision.
OBR Configuration Implications
As an exception to most of the Hardware settings, OBR Settings can be cloned from one to another
fetal monitor.
Revision
This is not a setting. It displays the revision number of the OB radio.
Frequency Band
Use the Frequency Band setting to configure the country-specific OBR frequency band. Choices are:
•
WMTS (e.g. USA, Canada)
•
ISM (e.g. most European countries)
•
T108 (e.g. Japan)
For detailed configuration implications, please refer to the latest Avalon fetal monitor Service Guide.
Channel
Use the Channel setting to configure the OBR channel the monitor should use. It provides a total of 64
channels. The range of available channels depends on the selected
Frequency Band and the OB Radio
Revision.
Depending on the hospital’s existing wireless infrastructure, a number of channels might already be
occupied by other wireless applications.
For detailed instructions on setting up OBR channels in a new or existing wireless infrastructure, refer
to the Avalon Fetal Monitor Service Guide and contact a Philips service representative.
