Equipment Overview: Theory of Operation
Regardless of where an admit is initiated, whether from a bedside (in combo mode),
a CIC Pro monitoring station or elsewhere, the process always goes through the
following steps:
1.
An admit request is created by the Unity Network device where the admit is
initiated.
2.
The initiating device searches it's searching RWHAT database and determines
the ApexPro master tower IP address (See
127(
The master tower might not be the ApexPro tower physically connected to
the initiating device (the ApexPro tower associated with a specific CIC Pro
system, for example).
3.
The admit request is sent by the initiating device to the master tower.
127(
If the admit fails at any point, the master tower informs the initiating device
of the failure.
4.
The master tower receives the admit request. The request is in the form of a
Unity network protocol packet, which contains the desired unit name, bed
name, patient name, transmitter number, graph location, and age group—as
well as an identification of the initiating device.
5.
The master tower recognizes and begins to process the admit request.
6.
The master tower verifies that the requested transmitter number is not already in
use by another patient.
7.
If the transmitter number IS already in use (TTX not valid), an error response is
sent back to the initiating device and the admit process stops.
8.
If the transmitter number IS NOT in use (TTX valid), the admit process
continues.
9.
The master tower examines the transmitter number (contained in the request
sent by the initiating device) and determines the telemetry system type of the
request. If the transmitter number is between 1 and 960, it belongs to a CDT-
LAN system. If it's between 1000 and 9999, it belongs to an ApexPro system.
10. The master tower searches it's RWHAT database for an available tower/
receiver having the correct telemetry type (See
