Using the XXX Pulse Oximetry System
General Information about Bluetooth Technology
Bluetooth is a technology that enables automatic wireless connections between a
variety of electronic communications and computing devices, making it possible to
connect any compatible devices without cables or wires. The technology is based on
a radio link that offers fast and reliable transmissions of voice, video, and data.
Bluetooth uses a license-free, globally available frequency range in the ISM band—
intended to ensure communication compatibility worldwide.
Nonin’s use of Bluetooth Wireless Technology allows SpO
2
, pulse rate, and
plethysmographic data to be transmitted through a Bluetooth radio to a Bluetooth-
enabled device. Nonin’s system removes the connection from the sensor cable to the
display unit, giving patients increased ability to move freely—without being
hindered by cables. Nonin’s system uses a class II Bluetooth radio with a battery life
of approximately 4.5 days and a range of about 30 feet (spherical radius).
Point-to-Point Communications
The XXX Pulse Oximetry System features point-to-point communications, allowing
one master device (the display unit) to be connected to one slave device (the POD).
Once connected, neither device is detectable by any other Bluetooth-enabled device,
which reduces the risk of interference and preserves data integrity.
Nonin’s Wrist-Worn POD can be connected to any compatible Bluetooth device
with supporting software. To create a connection to a compatible device, refer to
that device’s user instructions.
