Appendix 5. VueLink
37. VueLink Technical Data
This section describes how to connect the SLE5000 to the VueLink/Agilent
patient monitor. It also describes the information that is sent from the SLE5000 to
the monitor including the waveforms, alarm conditions and patient parameters.
37.1 Glossary
Explanation of terms used within this section.
37.2 Connecting the SLE5000 to the VueLink patient monitor
The SLE5000 RS232 link has been adapted for Agilent Open Interface/VueLink
connection. Connection to the monitor must be via the Agilent M1032A VueLink
module. The module must be of the ‘Ventilator’ type. The cable from the M1032A
module (Agilent part number: M1032-61654) requires the SLE VueLink adaptor
(SLE part number: W0344) to connect it to the 9-pin RS232 socket on the back of
the SLE5000 ventilator.
The transmission speed is 19200 bps, data format 8 bits, 1 stop bit and no parity.
All data transmitted to the VueLink monitor is transferred in packets or telegrams.
The VueLink monitor sends data request telegrams and the SLE5000 sends
response telegrams. There are 64 request telegrams every 2048ms from the
VueLink module.
