Serial Patient Data Outputs
The Avant 9700 features real-time and print-on-demand options. All reports include a header
with the model number, time, and date information.
Real-time data output is provided by connecting a null modem cable to the RS232 connector port
and the receiving computer. Data is sent in an ASCII serial format at 9600 baud with 8 data bits,
1 start bit, and 2 stop bits; each line is terminated by CR/LF.
Print-On-Demand Output
Avant 9700 allows Print-on Demand if the system is connected to a printer. This operation is
performed by pressing the ON/STANDBY button, as needed. The device features a Print-On-
Demand option, allowing users to output data each time the ON/STANDBY button is pressed.
When the Avant 9700 is in Trend Histogram view, all data from the recording selected on the
trend display are output, including the start time of the record, the record’s SpO
2
histogram data,
the record’s pulse rate histogram data, and the record’s ending time. In any other display view,
time, date, SpO
2
and pulse rate data are output. In addition, space is provided to include patient
and physician information.
Real-Time Patient Data Output
Data output is sent once per second in one of the following formats:
• If option switch 8 is in the UP position, the data will be displayed as follows:
SPO
2
=XXX HR=YYY F
where XXX and YYY are the SpO
2
and pulse rate values and F signifies “output: fast”.
• If option switch 8 is in the DOWN position, the data will be displayed as follows:
SPO
2
=XXX HR=YYY
where XXX and YYY are the SpO
2
and pulse rate values as selected by option switch 2.
NOTES:
• To insert an event marker, press the ON/STANDBY button.
• The serial output rate is automatically returned to its previous setting upon device startup.
