Service Manual
The RS-232 hardware interface cable has a DB-15 connector for the OxiMax N-600x
pulse oximeter and the applicable connector for the Philips monitor. For this
interface, Nellcor recommends Nellcor cable part number 902256.
A blank screen on the Philips monitor indicates corrupt data. The Philips monitor
detects corrupt data in less than 100 milliseconds. In the Philips mode of operation,
the OxiMax N-600x pulse oximeter automatically sets the interface baud rate to
19200 bits per second (bps).
