Assigning an IntelliVue Cableless Measurement
Device to a Patient Monitor or Telemetry Device
When an IntelliVue Cableless Measurement Device is used with a host system (patient monitor,
telemetry device or GuardianSoftware), the Cableless Measurement Device must be assigned to that

The assignment can be done at the Cableless Measurement Device itself (this is the only way for a
telemetry device) or at the host system.
WARNING
Always make sure that the applied Cableless Measurement Device is assigned to the correct patient.
