Operationally, there is no difference in the way MUSE transmissions are handled with the satellite phone versus the
standard fax modem card and cell phone. You perform an Acquire or Select Patient Record operation, select a phone
number, and press the Transmit softkey. However, you must understand the characteristics of satellite phone
behavior. Transmissions must have an unobstructed line of sight to a satellite. This means that indoor transmissions
will most likely not work. The satellite phone should generally be used outdoors or have an outdoor antenna.
Note that the display on the satellite phone should be used as an indicator of dialing progress. If a dialing sequence
stalls, you should abort the dialing sequence and manually restart the transmission on the E Series unit.
When you attempt to fax data via satellite phone, the E Series detects the presence of the RS232 card and issues a
general fax error.
Finally, you should also note that data card uploads are not handled via the National Instruments PCMCIA RS232
card. This function is accessed via the RS232 port on the back of the E Series unit. Dial-up clock synchronization is not
available when the National Instruments PCMCIA RS232 card is installed.

your cellular phone.
• Many hospitals prohibit the use of cellular phones on their premises. Please abide by local rules and regulations.
