About the USB Data Transfer Option

A cradle configured with the optional USB communication port and connected to a PC

with the Propaq LT Configuration Utility and the Propaq LT AutoPrint Utility can be used

for the following:

• Creating custom monitor configurations on the PC and downloading them to any

number of monitors. (See “Monitor Configuration” on page 111.)

• Uploading patient data from the monitor to the PC for printing. (See “Printing

Patient Data” on page 103.)

Setting Up the Cradle

1. Place the cradle on a table or shelf, hang it on a bed rail, or attach it (with the optional

Pole Mount accessory) to an IV pole.

2. Connect the AC adapter to an AC power outlet and to the cradle. The indicator

(green) on the front of the cradle (Figure 10) indicates that the AC power adapter is

connected.

3. Insert the monitor into the cradle. When the monitor is properly seated, it clicks into

place. (green) on the cradle indicates that the monitor battery is charging. (See

“Recharging the Battery” on page 159.)

WARNING Place the cradle so that it cannot fall on the patient.

Caution Locate the cradle near the patient but not so close that it interferes

with patient care.

Note

The monitor can be inserted into the cradle when on or off. If monitor power is on,

inserting the monitor in the cradle or removing the monitor from the cradle does

not interrupt patient monitoring.
