i-STAT 1 DOWNLOADER
Function
The Downloader converts infrared transmissions of test records from the
analyzer to electrical form and transmits (uploads) them to the Data Manager.
The Downloader also converts electrical signals from the Central Data Station
to infrared transmissions, which are transmitted (downloaded) to the analyzer.
Transmission is automatic when an analyzer is placed in a Downloader.
The Downloader comes in two formats:
Downloader: A low-profile table-top unit with “arms” between
which the analyzer is placed, and
Downloader/Recharger (DR): a cradle that the analyzer is placed
within.
Both Downloader formats are available for use with direct wiring (serial format)
or ethernet cabling (network format). Unless indicated otherwise, references
to the Downloader apply to the Downloader/Recharger as well.
The Downloader/Recharger can recharge a rechargeable battery in the analyzer.
If the analyzer contains a rechargeable battery, the battery begins recharging
automatically as soon as the analyzer is placed in the Downloader/Recharger.
The Downloader/Recharger also has a compartment for recharging a rechargeable
battery outside the analyzer.
