PCPatch & Wireless: Wireless Event Recording
Wireless Event Recording
Event recording on the DR400 is done wirelessly,
via a NorthEast Monitoring Gateway and an FTP
site. Refer to the
Gateway - FTP Technical Manual,
NEMM046,
for more information on how to set up
and run the Wireless feature.
The Gateway Settings
The Gateway field on the Settings screen shows
which Gateway has been paired with the DR400.
The Service
URL key,
Remote Server
URL, Remote
Server Port,
Carrier APN,
and Key ID are
all required to
transmit suc-
cessfully.
If any of these
items are blank or incorrect, you can update these
by putting your URLKEY.dat file into the bin direc-
tory and pairing the Gateway again. If your
URLKEYdat is incorrect or you do not have a
URLKEYdat file, contact NorthEast Monitoring or
your distributor for assistance.
Important: A URLKEY.dat file must exist in your
directory in order to pair with a new Gateway. If
the file does not exist, the Pair Gateway button will
not be enabled.
Recording an Event Procedure
Event recording is for channel 1 only, but otherwise
the setup and recording procedure are the same as
Holter and are described in the previous chapter.
While recording in Event mode, the patient should
charge the DR400 every 14 days at a minimum.
Remind the patient that the recorder will flash
orange while charging, and then flash green when
fully charged.
As with Holter, the patient can record an event by
pressing the PRESS button quickly. The recorder
will flash green when recording an event. Flashing
will also occur when the recorder is saving an auto-
matically generated event.
Transmitting Events
Once an event has been saved, the DR400 will
attempt to transmit by contacting the Gateway after
20 minutes. After several tries, and if a Gateway is
not found or wireless transmission is not successful,
the recorder will then try every two hours to make a
connection. Once a transmission is successful, the
DR400 will attempt to send events until all are sent.
Transmitting Events Manually
With the Gateway present and receiving a good sig-
nal, hold the PRESS button down until the DR400
starts flashing orange rapidly. At this point, the
DR400 will attempt to connect with its paired Gate-
way in order to send transmissions. This can be
done during or after the procedure has stopped.
Events on returned DR400
After the event pro-
cedure, the Settings
screen will show
you the total number
of events that were
saved as well as any
that are still remaining and not transmitted. If you
would like to save the remaining events, you will
need to plug in the Gateway and transmit the events
manually as described above.
