Data Printouts
Each line of the data printout may contain up to 132 characters and is terminated
with line feed and carriage return characters.
The PDL transmits two types of information: page headers and data lines. The
page header appears at the top of each page and contains the patient’s name, the
bed number, and the current date. A new page is generated when any the
following situations occur:
• The end of a page is reached (that is, 50 data lines have been transmitted).
• The monitored vital signs parameters change.
• The patient name or bed number changes.
• The current date changes.
Data lines are transmitted at the interval specified at configuration. Each data line
contains the time that the data was collected, as well as the data collected for
each vital sign parameter being monitored.
!
• If you are monitoring a large number of parameters and have an
80-column printer, the data from one reading may require more
than one line. If your printer has a wrap-around feature, this will
be handled automatically. If you prefer that each data reading fit
onto one line, condense the printer’s type or use a wide-
carriage (132 column) printer.
