Temporal Temperature
The Exergen TemporalScanner, available only from Honeywell HomMed, can transmit temperature
readings to the Genesis DM monitor.
The scanner is activated when the patient presses the red
ON
button and continues to scan and
transmit until the patient releases the button. The device scans for and transmits
the highest
temperature so the last reading is always the highest temperature reading.
The monitor waits five seconds after the receipt of the last temperature reading. If no further readings
are received within the five second period, the last reading is bundled into the data packet for
transmission to the LifeStream.
If the patient resumes using the scanner within the five-second period, the monitor waits until readings
once again stop, allows another five-second grace period, and then bundles the last reading received into
the data-packet.
Assigning a COM port
You must
assign
a COM port to the scanner or the monitor will not prompt the patient for data or
communicate with the device to collect data (even if the device is connected to the COM port).
Assigning a COM port triggers the monitor to include temperature prompts during the monitoring
session and to communicate with the scanner.
The following instructions assume you know how to navigate in Setup Mode. If you have not
programmed a monitor, refer to
Section 3 Programming the Genesis DM Monitor
for complete
programming instructions.
