About the IntelliVue Support Tool
The IntelliVue Support Tool is a PC-based software application that is designed to help configuring
IntelliVue monitors and to manage IntelliVue Monitor configurations.
Using the Support Tool, you can, for example, read in (clone) a configuration from an IntelliVue monitor
to a PC, modify this configuration offline on the PC, and then store (clone) the changed version back to
the monitor. With the Support Tool you can clone configurations to more than one monitor at a time.
You can also use the Support Tool to make backups of your configurations, or generate configuration
reports. The configuration files generated by the Support Tool are stored in a format that can be e-mailed.
What Can I Configure with the Support Tool?
You can configure everything you can configure on the monitor, except that you cannot change individual
monitor and measurement settings.
In addition to the configuration on the monitor, the Support Tool allows, for example:
• Changing the order of items in the lists of Screens, measurement or monitor settings blocks.
• Unlocking Profiles, Screens and settings blocks.
• Making realtime waves, or screen trends overlap on the Screen.
• Importing Screens into a configuration, and copying Screens between configurations.
• Importing SmartKey configurations into a configuration.
• Copying monitor settings, measurement settings, and global settings between config files.
• Importing, creating and modifying drug calculator configurations.
• Importing, creating and modifying Guardian Early Warning Scoring protocols.
For a complete description of the Support Tool functionality, refer to the Support Tool Instructions for
Use, provided with the Support Tool.
