A monitor that is not connected to AC power will not communicate 
with the transmitter – monitor data port is disabled when not 
connected to AC power – so the AlarmView System will not transmit 
in case of a monitor power failure. The only exception is the Nellcor 
N-395 monitor, which will continue to communicate with the 
transmitter while operating on battery power. 
 
Outlets used for the system should be on the hospital emergency 
circuit so that they are energized at all times. 
 
 
Transmitter Placement 
 
1. Place transmitter on top of or beside pulse oximeter it is 
being used with.  
 
To minimize possibility of the transmitter creating interference 
with the monitor, place transmitter at the rear of monitor. For best 
results with N-395 monitor, place transmitter to the right rear of 
monitor.

The antenna must be connected to the transmitter before the 
transmitter is turned on. Turning the transmitter on without the 
antenna connected may damage the transmitter. Do not disconnect 
the antenna while the transmitter is turned on. 
 
1. Check oximetry monitor to ensure it is on and functioning 
properly, and that alarm settings are appropriate.
