The Genesis DM monitor is fully compatible with Central Station 3.5 ONLY when Classic mode has
been activated. This mode is accessed during programming and eliminates conflicts with LifeStream
specific content. See the specific programming instructions in the following section to activate Classic
mode compatibility.
A configuration packet differs from a vital signs packet or a firmware upgrade packet. A configuration packet
is the set of Genesis DM data that describes the user’s vitals signs session.
For instance, the monitor may prompt the user in French Canadian 3 times a day, 8:00 AM, 12:00 PM, and
4:00 PM. During the 8:00 AM session, the user is prompted for blood pressure, weight, and glucose using a
LifeScan meter. At 12:00, the user is prompted for blood pressure and weight only. Finally, at 4:00 PM, the
user is prompted for blood pressure, weight, and prothrombin time using the ITC meter. All of this data is
found in the configuration packet.
A configuration packet can be sent from the Genesis DM monitor or the LifeStream product.
After a change is made to the Genesis DM at the monitor, the user is prompted to send a
configuration packet back to LifeStream. If you haven’t made a change to the Genesis DM, but still
wish to send a configuration packet to Lifestream, press
MANUAL
then
YES.
Alternately, a change made at LifeStream will be sent to the customer’s mailbox for download by
the Genesis DM the next time it communicates to the mailbox. If you are at the Genesis DM and
are expecting that there is a configuration packet waiting, press
MANUAL
then
YES.
Factory Default Reset
Users of the Genesis DM monitor will be able to easily reset the unit to the factory default settings when
moving a unit from patient to patient. At any time following start up, the user will be able to reset the unit
by:
1.
Depressing and holding the “Retest” key for seven (7) seconds.
2.
At that point the unit will display a screen:
“Reset unit to factory setting?”
3.
Press
YES
or
NO
This reset will NOT change your PIN. The PIN will remain specific to your agency
Setup Wizard
The Genesis DM monitor will launch an automatic setup wizard each time it is plugged in. The wizard
initially asks if you want to begin setup: responses include Yes, No or allowing it to timeout. The setup
wizard presents several screens that allow users to adjust settings for the monitor. The display will
prompt the user, and if a response is not received within 30 seconds, the wizard will be bypassed. The
unit will ALWAYS bypass the setup wizard when restarting following a firmware upgrade session.
