Wi-Fi
The Wi-Fi radio allows for networked communication of data and alarm signals between
Rad-97 and a secondary patient monitoring station, Masimo Patient SafetyNet, over an IEEE
802.11 a/b/g wireless network.
Rad-97 uses only configured MAC addresses to establish wireless communications to prevent
unauthorized connections to other wireless devices. As risk mitigation, in the event of the
loss of wireless communication, Rad-97 alarm capabilities are designed to be independent of
Wi-Fi communication in order to ensure alarms are received.
Use the Wi-Fi screen to enable or disable Wi-Fi connectivity or connect to a wireless network.
When Rad-97 is connected to a Wi-Fi network, the Wi-Fi icon on the Status Bar indicates the
strength of the connection. The user can also access the Wi-Fi screen by pressing the Wi-Fi
icon on the Status Bar. See About the Status Bar on page 52.
