Technology
The O

M
AX
N-65 is designed to use Nellcor O
XI
M
AX
brand sensors, which integrate the O
XI
M
AX
technology.
These O
XI
M
AX
sensors are identified by their deep
lavender/blue plug color. All O
XI
M
AX
sensors contain a
memory chip carrying information about the O
XI
M
AX
sensor, which the oximeter needs for correct operation,
including the
O
XI
M
AX
sensor’s calibration data, model
type, troubleshooting codes, and error detection data.
When an O
XI
M
AX
sensor is connected to the monitor, the
pulse oximeter first reads the information in the O
XI
M
AX
sensor memory chip, checks it to make sure that there are
no errors, and then loads the data to begin monitoring.
This process takes a few seconds.
