EQUIPMENT FAILURE — Recurring audible alarms are a symptom of a serious system malfunction. Do not just reset the alarm when it occurs. Contact GE Technical Support to correct the problem. Equipment failure could result if the problem is not resolved.
Page 22: Indicators
See Troubleshooting on page 6-1. Unity Network description/connection The ATS, running the ApexPro Host software, is a telemetry component of the Unity Network family of devices. It is also the physical connection point between ApexPro telemetry devices and the CIC Pro center server.
Page 23: Unity Network Mc Network
The Unity Network RX (Receiver eXchange) network is the connection to the Telemetry System. NOTE Details may differ between specific types of ApexPro Telemetry Systems. Network connections labels The following table specifies the labels identifying Unity Network connections on the back of the ATS.
Page 24: Theory Of Operation
2-2. Theory of operation ApexPro Telemetry System The ATS is part of the ApexPro Telemetry System. The ApexPro Telemetry System provides real-time patient data/alarms to one or more CIC Pro centers. ApexPro telemetry provides clinicians with patient physiological information while allowing for patient mobility.
Page 25 Sends data via the Unity Network MC network to the CIC Pro center for patient data display. NOTE The ApexPro host software application does not provide user accessible functions, but instead relies on remote user interfaces, such as the CIC Pro center. Refer to the CIC Pro center documentation for further information.
Page 26: Receiver System
There are two versions of the antenna system: one for U.S. applications (560–614MHz) and one for international applications (420–474MHz). Refer to the ApexPro Antenna System site survey and installation manual for further details. Access points...
Page 27: Fh Transceiver
Unity Network device communication The ApexPro system is a component in the GE Unity Network family of devices. GE Unity Network devices have specific communication requirements and behavior. RWHAT data All Unity Network devices periodically broadcast information about themselves in RWHAT packets.
Page 28: Apexpro Towers, Antennas And Transmitters
An ApexPro tower can contain a pool of up to 16 receivers. Any number of these receivers from this pool can be reserved to only accept admits from specific units.
Page 29: Sequence Of Events When Admitting A Patient
Sequence of events when admitting a patient Regardless of where an admit is initiated, whether from a bedside (in combo mode), a CIC Pro center monitoring station or elsewhere, the process always goes through the following steps: 2001989-203C ApexPro™ Telemetry 2-13...
Page 30 If the transmitter number is between 1 and 960, it belongs to a CDT-LAN system. If it is between 1000 and 9999, it belongs to an ApexPro system. The master tower searches its RWHAT database for an available tower/receiver having the correct telemetry type.
Page 31 — a unit’s presence in the list only indicates that at least one receiver in the unit is available on the ApexPro tower. The following priority conditions are used to determine which ApexPro tower should receive the forwarded admit request (in descending priority): A tower that has a receiver reserved for the unit name in the admit packet.
Page 32 ApexPro admit request forwarding If the admit request was determined to be of ApexPro telemetry type, the admit request is sent to the selected ApexPro tower, the tower assigns the admit to an available receiver and the admit is processed.

LOSS OF FUNCTION — Perform a site survey. Failure to perform a site survey may lead to improper performance of the ATS and may affect the performance of the Unity Network as well. The site survey must be performed by authorized GE personnel only. Installation requirements Location...
Page 35: Mounting
The ATS is capable of producing heat and must be physically located to allow for ample air circulation to properly dissipate the heat. Keep ATS ventilation openings free of obstructions. The ATS rack installation location should provide at least the following minimal clearances for ventilation and access. 2001989-203C ApexPro™ Telemetry...
Page 36: Emi/Rf Interference
Power/grounding requirements Power GE requires the use of a UPS device with the ATS, otherwise, improper shut down of the unit could result from a power outage. Connect only the ATS power cord to the UPS. Do not connect any other devices to the UPS.
Page 37 A router allows connection between the hospital network and the Unity Network IX network. The router is used mainly for remote service connections. For further details refer to the Unity Router Configuration Document. Routers may not be required for all ATS installations. Refer to the site survey. 2001989-203C ApexPro™ Telemetry...
Page 38: Network Requirements
LOSS OF FUNCTION/EQUIPMENT FAILURE — Only external devices specifically designed to be connected to the ATS, or approved by GE for use with the ATS, should be connected, as specified in this manual or as otherwise specified by the manufacturer. Loss of telemetry function or equipment failure could result if this instruction is not followed.
Page 39: Mounting
Refer to the site survey to determine if non-standard TCP/IP settings are required for the ATS installation. If non-standard TCP/IP settings are required: Connect a service laptop directly with the ATS via either the ATS Unity Network IX network ethernet port, or via a serial cable connection. 2001989-203C ApexPro™ Telemetry...
