Introduction to the Instrument
Functional Description of the M3015A Measurement
Server Extension Hardware
The Extension receives information signals (such as Temp/Press) and a sidestream CO
2
sample from the patient then transmits the data through the Server to the Monitor via the
Server-to-Monitor link bar. See the “Functional Description of the Measurement Server
Hardware” on page 22 for a description of the normal processing of measurement data.
The sidestream CO
2
Extension is always used with a Server. To function correctly, both the
Server and the Extension must have compatible software revisions.
WARNING Never use a Measurement Extension with a Measurement Server which contains
Release A software (A.XX.XX). Since the software required to process data from the
Extension is absent, the additional measurements will not be displayed.
To view the software revision, press the Setup key and select Revisions.
Pairing the Server with the Extension allows for the following:
• Measurement of both temperature and invasive blood pressure for the same patient.
• Two temperature measurements for the same patient including a Delta Temp calculation
feature.
• Two invasive blood pressure measurements for the same patient.
For more information, see the section “Temperature and Invasive Blood Pressure (Temp/
Press) measurement” on page 37.
