I/O Boards
Interfaces to the monitor are implemented via I/O boards. The location of these boards is restricted by
general rules. The I/O slot designations diagram and the I/O matrix which outline the I/O board
placement rules can be found in the Installation Instructions section.
The following is a list of Interface (I/O) boards which may be present in your monitor, depending on
your purchased configuration:
• MSL
• Video (analog)
• Philips Clinical Network (LAN)
• PS/2
• MIB/RS232
• Flexible Nurse Call
• Parallel printer
• Remote devices (Remote Alarm Device, Remote Extension Device)
The specifications for the above listed interfaces can be found in the technical data sheet for the
monitor and in the Specifications chapter of the Instructions for Use.
