• Digitized patient signals including wave data, numerical data and status information (typically from
the measurement server to a display unit)
• Control data representing user interactions (typically from the display unit to a measurement server)
• Shared data structures, for example representing patient demographical data and global
configuration items
The internal LAN allows plug and play configuration of the monitoring system. The system
automatically detects plugging or unplugging of measurement servers and configures the system
accordingly.
The components on the internal LAN are time- synchronized to keep signal data consistent in the
system. Dedicated hardware support for synchronization eliminates any latency of the network driver
software.
The integrated LAN provides deterministic bandwidth allocation/ reservation mechanisms so that the
real-time characteristic of signal data and control data exchange is guaranteed. This applies to the data
flow from the measurement server to the monitor (for example measurement signal data) and the data
flow from the monitor to a measurement server (for example to feed data to a recorder module).
Integrated communication hubs in the monitor and the FMS allow flexible cabling options (star
topology, daisy chaining of servers).
