VS 8/VS 8A Vital Signs Monitor Operator’s Manual 3 - 21
■ The monitor can transmit parameter values, waveforms, alarm settings (if the
monitor is working in Continuous Monitoring mode), and events to the CMS.
From the CMS, you can check the patient’s data and alarms (if any).
■ When the monitor is working in Continuous Monitoring mode, patient
information, alarm settings, and alarm status can be synchronized between the
monitor and the CMS.
■ You can start or stop NIBP measurement from the CMS.
■ In case of network disconnection, the monitor can transmit the offline data to the
CMS when network is reconnected.
For more information on the CMS, see the operator’s manual of corresponding central
monitoring system.
To select a CMS, select the system status information area at the top right corner of the
main screen. Select the desired CMS from the popup CMS list.
• You can select CMS only when the Select CMS switch is on. For more
information, see 16.15.6 Enabling Selecting a CMS.
3.12 Connecting the eGateway
You can connect the monitor to the eGateway through wired LAN or wireless LAN to
implement interaction between the monitor and external devices. When connected to
the eGateway, the system provides the following functions:
■ The monitor can transmit parameter values, waveforms, alarm settings (if the
monitor is working in Continuous Monitoring mode), and events to the
eGateway.
■ Clock can be synchronized between the monitor and the eGateway.
3.13 Connecting the Wireless Network
You can add up to five wireless networks for the monitor. For more information, see
16.15.4 Setting the Wireless Network.
If connecting the current wireless network fails, the monitor automatically connects
other wireless networks in the order when they were added.
To manually switch the wireless network, from the system status information area on the
top right corner of the screen select , and select the desired wireless network.
3.14 Stopping a Parameter Measurement
To stop monitoring a parameter, follow this procedure:
1. Remove corresponding sensors from the patient.

2. Disconnect the sensor from the patient cable.
3. Disconnect the patient cable from the parameter connector.
4. If you are using the disposable sensor, discard it.
3.15 Turning Off the Monitor
Before turn off the monitor, perform the following check:
1. Ensure that the monitoring of the patient has been completed.
2. Disconnect the cables and sensors from the patient.
3. Save or clear the patient data as required.
To turn off the monitor, press and hold the power switch for 3 seconds.
• Press and hold the power switch for 10 seconds to forcibly shut down the
monitor if it could not be shut down normally. This may cause loss of patient
data.
• Turning off the monitor does not disconnect the monitor from the AC mains.
To completely disconnect the power supply, unplug the power cord.
• If a monitor is on during a power loss, then the monitor is automatically
switched on when the power is restored.
• In case of a temporary power failure, if the power is restored within 30
minutes, monitoring will resume with all active settings unchanged. If the
monitor is without power for more than 30 minutes, it behaves the same as if
it were normally turned off.
