Respironics V200 Ventilator Operator’s Manual

REF 1057983 A

The serial port is designed to transmit data on a one device to one device serial 
communications channel. In the connection between the two devices, the 
ventilator assumes the “slave” role and responds to commands transmitted to 
it via the serial port by the external “master.” The serial communications port 
uses a standard RS-232, null modem, pin configuration. The ventilator 
assumes the serial communications is set up for:

•

19,200 bits/second baud rate

•

8 data bits

•

no parity bit

•

1 stop bit

The ventilator is sent commands that are 4 ASCII characters from the external 
device and responds with a fixed format message. The commands and the 
responses are specified in Appendix A, “RS-232 Communications Protocol”.

The ventilator is equipped with a remote alarm port enabling ventilator alarm 
conditions to be sounded at remote locations away from the ventilator. 
Pressing ALARM SILENCE deactivates the remote alarm. The ventilator signals 
an alarm using a normally open or normally closed relay contact. The de-
energized state of the relay represents an alarm state (any Medium or High 
Priority alarm) and the energized state represents no alarms. 

The remote alarm port is a standard ¼ inch, female, phono jack (ring, tip, 
sleeve) connector. 

The port is configured to work with the Normally Open (NO), Normally Closed 
(NC), and Respironics (LifeCare) systems. Each requires specific cabling 
identified in Table 6-1:.
