10 Installation Welch Allyn cardiopulmonary connectivity software
Setting up the CP 20 for CardioPerfect connectivity
Switch on the CP 20 electrocardiograph and press the F6 key (More),
then press the 4 key to enter the System Configuration menu.
On the CP 20 electrocardiograph, you will need to set the ID Format field in the System
Configuration to either Short or Standard so a date of birth field will be visible in the
Patient data entry screen. In addition, the full date of birth must be entered when filling in
patient demographics, not the age field itself.
Follow the instructions below to configure the CP 20 for serial cable or wireless network
connectivity.
For serial cable connections:
1. Make sure the telephone number field is empty.
2. Press the F4 key (Page) to go to configuration page.
3. Press the F3 key ( ) to set the Default XMT Media field to RS232.
4. Press the F6 key (Exit) to return to ECG acquisition mode.
For wireless network connections:
Make sure your network administrator has issued you an IP address to use for the CP 20
device, or has indicated that you can use DHCP for dynamic IP address assignment. Note
that for reliable connections, the machine running the WACP 20 connectivity application
should have a fixed IP address, and you should know what that IP address is.
1. Press the F4 key (Page) to go to configuration page.
2. Press the F3 key ( ) to set Default XMT Media to WLAN.
3. Enter the DHCP settings.
• If your network is configured for DHCP use, set the DHCP field to Yes.
If a fixed IP address is to be used, set this field to No.
• If you set DHCP to Yes, you can skip ahead to the Host IP field. Otherwise, you need to
enter the appropriate values for IP Address, Default Gateway and Subnet mask.
4. Enter the IP address of the host machine (where the WACP 20 connectivity
application is running) in the Host IP field. Ask your system administrator for the
correct IP address, or use the ipconfig tools of Windows to determine the IP address
of that machine.
5. Enter the port number configured in the WACP 20 application options into the Port
number field.
6. If your wireless router requires an SSID (it can be configured to ignore this), enter that
into the SSID field.
For standard installations, the Channel number setting should be 6.
Caution A CardioPerfect Workstation stores a patient's date
of birth and calculates the age based on the date of the ECG
recording. The patient's age will therefore be transferred
correctly only if the complete date of birth was entered.
