update diskettes 1, 2, and 3 to a Centralscope central station or Clinical
Information Center (CIC) system hard disk drive, initiate the central
station as a file server from the monitor, and download software to the
monitor over the patient monitoring network.

connected to a patient monitoring network. If the monitor
requiring update is not connected to the network or is
connected to a network without central stations, you
cannot use this procedure to update the monitor. Refer to
ÒLoad Software From DisketteÓ for an alternate
