Monitoring a Patient
After setting up the monitor and applying the sensor(s) to the patient:
1. Press the ON/STANDBY button to turn on the Model 7600.
2. Establish a baseline rSO2value.
3. Set the baseline (see the “Limits Menu” section for more information).
4. Verify the alarm limits are appropriate.
Bluetooth Technology
Bluetooth allows wireless connections between electronic communications and computing
devices. The technology is based on a radio link that offers fast and reliable data
transmissions. Bluetooth uses a license-free, globally available frequency range in the ISM
band—intended to ensure communication compatibility worldwide.
Nonin’s use of Bluetooth wireless technology allows regional oxygen saturation information to
be transmitted through a Bluetooth radio to a compatible Bluetooth-enabled device. Nonin’s
wireless system removes the need for a physical connection from the monitor to a remote
monitor location, giving increased ability to move the monitor freely. Nonin’s 7600 monitor
uses an automatically switchable class I/class II Bluetooth radio with a maximum range of
about 100 meters (328 feet) (spherical radius).
The Model 7600 features point-to-point communications, allowing one master device (the
remote monitor) to be paired to one slave device (the 7600 monitor). Once connected, the
7600 monitor will not connect with any other Bluetooth-enabled device.
CAUTION: Between patients, turn the Model 7600 off (Standby mode). Failure to do so
could result in inaccurate baseline values for the new patient. Each time the device is
turned ON, the 7600 monitor clears the baseline values, resets the limits to the default
values, and begins a new patient record in data memory.
