NIBP Module (A21)
An OEM NIBP monitor supplied by CAS Medical Systems. This module performs blood pressure monitoring, determining systolic,
diastolic and mean pressures and pulse rate. Measurement results pass serially by means of the A06 OEM PCB to the A01 System
PCB ASIC for display. Readings may be taken one time or on a recurring interval.
Biphasic Module (A22)
The biphasic module generates the biphasic waveform. The energy from the A15 Storage Capacitor is shaped into the biphasic
waveform. The energy passes through the A14 Inductive Resistor and A13 Transfer Relay to the W11 Therapy Connector.
CO2 Module (A23)
An OEM capnometry module supplied by Oridion Medical Ltd. This module continuously monitors end-tidal carbon dioxide (CO2)
and respiratory rate. Measurement results pass serially by means of the A06 OEM PCB to the A01 System PCB ASIC for display.
ECG Connector Cable (W07)
A front panel connector port used for attaching a 3-lead, 5-wire, or 12-lead ECG cable. Signal processing takes place on th
e A01
System
PCB ECG front end processing circuitry (see
System Connector Cable (W08)
A rear panel connector port used for the exchange of digital information with an external modem, personal computer, factory test
systems, or Physio-Control field service test systems. The system connector also supplies a real-time analog ECG signal for use in
basic central monitoring or telemetry systems.
Auxiliary Power Connector Cable (W09)
A rear panel access port used for connection of external power adapters.
