Transferring Error
Logs
General
The following procedure describes how to copy the patient monitor and
parameter module error logs and then transfer them to a diskette at the
Centralscope central station. To transfer error files from a Clinical
Information Center (CIC), refer to the Prism Information Field Service
Manual, pn 419897-002.
The Centralscope or CIC central station can perform their normal
patient data display tasks and act as remote terminals. The remote
terminal function is very useful for retrieving, viewing, and saving error
logs from any GE Medical Systems Information Technologies patient
monitoring equipment communicating on the Unity Network. Through a
series of menus a device, such as a monitor, another central station, or
parameter module, can be selected in any Care Unit. Then a device error
log for a particular day may be chosen.
Once the desired error log is selected it can be copied over the network to
a floppy diskette in the central station’s floppy diskette drive. Since the
error logs are text files they can be read into other computers and read
using most text editors or word processing applications.
To transfer error files from a Centralscope central station, use the
following procedure.
CAUTION
This procedure is intended for use by service personnel
with advanced troubleshooting skills. Do not
“experiment” with these commands! The consequences of
misuse include loss of patient data, corruption of the
central station operating software, or disruption of the
entire Unity Network.
