Table E-1. Valid Commands (cont.)
Command Description Values Example
SHAPE Indicates that the next 64 numbers represent a
pleth wave shape. - - [SHAPE1.000, 3.9,
4.9,...]
SHIVER Causes shiver artifact, a motion wave of
6.0 Hz. - - [SHIVER]
SRCF Selects DC or fixed signal source level. - - [SCRF]
SRCU Selects the test unit's signal source level. - - [SCRU]
TAP Causes tapping artifact, a motion wave of
3.5 Hz - - [TAP]
UPLETH Uses user's pleth waveform. - - [UPLETH]
VER Displays the Index 2MF version number - - [VER]
[1] For values less than 1, it is necessary to enter a leading zero. For example, 0.1 must be entered instead of
.1. A .1 entry will be interpreted as a signal strength of 1. Out of range entries default to six, which is a
normal level. In reality, signal strengths over 6 % always correspond to saturation in the 90s therefore the
80 % limit should be of no physiological consequence.
R-CURVE
The following is a sample of the format. Refer to Table E-2 for descriptions.

Table E-2. R-CURVE Format
Format Description
[ RCURVE> Identifies this to computer control as an R-curve data stream.
3: The curve number. Range is 0 to 5. There are six total downloadable R-curves.
The colon is a field separator.
Pulse oximeters use different intensities of light. R-curves 0 to 3 are reserved for
oximeters that use normal intensities of light. R-curve #4 is reserved for pulse
oximeters that use higher intensities of light; R-curve #5 is for pulse oximeters that
use lower light intensities.
123456789 This field can be any combination of up to nine alpha-numerics or space
characters. NOTHING ELSE! Typically, it will be an oximeter brand name.
xxx The irdc value for this oximeter. Range is 0 to 1000, divided by 10 and rounded.
For example, for 972 , use 097 (1000 becomes 100, and 17 becomes 020).
Leading zeros are required!
YYY Rdc value for this oximeter. Same format as irdc.
: Field separator
zzz R-values in the range 0 to 250. These will be multiplied by .01 inside the Simulator
to be in the range 0 to 2.50. Leading zeros are required. Commas are required. No
spaces are allowed. A comma after the last value is required. 51 values are
required, corresponding to 50 thru 100 percent oxy, read left to right.
] Right bracket identifies the end of the data stream.
