Patient Screen displays patient information such as waveforms, numeric fields, alarms, etc., and
allows access to various system level operations. Patient Screen has built-in loudspeakers. Two
Patient Screens can be connected to a S/5 Central.
Status screen displays system and network information, patient information, alarms and service
pages in text. Status Screen is also used during configuration and when starting and exiting
programs.
The system can be operated either by a PC keyboard and mouse or a specific S/5 Central
keyboard, K-CENTRALB. Only one of the keyboards can be installed at a time. The PC keyboard is
handy during installation and administrational tasks; the S/5 Central keyboard is meant for daily
use of the S/5 Central in patient environment.
Additionally, there can be a strip-chart recorder, N-REC4, or a laser printer connected to the S/5
Central.
2.1.2 Monitors
Which Monitors?
The, monitors which can be connected to the Datex-Ohmeda Monitor Network are:
− Datex-Ohmeda S/5 Anesthesia Monitor, S/5 Compact Anesthesia Monitor, S/5 Critical
Care Monitor and S/5 Compact Critical Care Monitor. These monitors require a network
board, e.g. B-NET or B-UPINET to enable the connection to the network. NOTE: There are
some limitations in data loading capabilities in monitors equipped with S-ANEXX software.

Datex-Ohmeda S/5 Central, ViewStation and Network
− Datex-Ohmeda Cardiocap/5 with the options N-XNET and N-XDNET
− Datex-Ohmeda S/5 Light Monitor (models F-LM1 and F-LMP1 with options N-LNET and L-
LDNET). NOTE: There are some limitations in the monitor-to-monitor communication and
data loading capabilities in Light Monitor. Please see the Light Monitor’s manuals.
How many monitors?
The number of monitors, (4, 8, 12, …32) connected to the Datex-Ohmeda Monitor Network is set
through the smart key. The smart key is a special plug inserted into the serial port of the S/5
Central. The maximum configuration is 32 monitors.
2.1.3 Datex-Ohmeda S/5 Arrhythmia Workstation
You can connect the Datex-Ohmeda S/5 Arrhythmia Workstation, to the Datex-Ohmeda Monitor
Network. You can connect one monitor to one Arrhythmia Workstation only and 16 monitors to one
workstation at the most. You can connect two Arrhythmia Workstations to a network with 32
monitors.
The Arrhythmia Workstation cannot use the same printer as Central; it requires its own.
2.2 Datex-Ohmeda Network (TCP/IP)
You can connect up to four Datex-Ohmeda Monitor Networks (4 x 32 monitors) together to form the
Datex-Ohmeda Network (TCP/IP). The network uses the TCP/IP protocol, and the monitor networks
are connected to it via a 100Mbps hub. It is possible to connect up to four S/5 ViewStations to the
Datex-Ohmeda Network (TCP/IP).

Technical Reference Manual
2.2.1 ViewStation
Datex-Ohmeda S/5 ViewStation consists of the same components as the Central, and functions
similarly except:
− It runs by the software S-VNETXX.
− There are no monitors connected to it.
− It cannot store patient data.
− It has no smart key (N-ICXX).
− It has only one network board (TCP/IP).
− The ViewStation cannot work without a Central, but the Central works without a ViewStation.
The ViewStation is used for centralized monitoring and remote viewing of patient sites, for example
in the office. A laser printer or recorder can be connected to ViewStation as well.
From a Central you can see only the monitors configured to it but from the ViewStation you can see
any of the monitors connected to the Datex-Ohmeda Network (TCP/IP), up to four monitor
networks. However, you can see a maximum of 32 monitors at a time.
ViewStations are connected to the 100 Mbps hub.
NOTE: To enable connecting ViewStations to the system, the Central requires the software S-
CNET99 Ver 1.2, or newer.

Datex-Ohmeda S/5 Central, ViewStation and Network
2.3 Network services
The following services are provided by the S/5 Central.
2.3.1 Central monitoring and remote viewing of patient sites
Waveforms, numeric fields, alarms, and other patient information from the networked monitors are
displayed at the Central on the Patient Screen. Real time waveform fields and numeric fields are
transmitted to the Central after start up and the numeric fields are updated every 10 seconds. The
Patient View is a copy of a single bedside monitor's display with a few exceptions, and the Multi
View displays one or two vital waveforms from 8 or 16 beds simultaneously.
Exceptions in Patient View are:
— Split screens are not displayed (minitrends or spirometry loops).
— NMT or EEG data are not displayed.
— In tonometry measurement, the PgCO
— The spirometry loops are not displayed in the digit fields.
— The text messages are not displayed
— No other parameter messages than ‘Apnea’ and arrhythmia messages are displayed in the
corresponding waveform fields, and ‘Audio Off’ and ‘Alarms silenced’ alarm messages are
displayed in the waveform fields.
Alarms are displayed both on the Patient Screen and on the Status Screen. Messages are
transmitted to the Central as the start-up sequence is complete, and then the messages are
transmitted whenever the alarm priority is altered. The priority change at the monitor is displayed at
the Central within two seconds.
2.3.2 Monitor-to-monitor communication
Monitor-to-monitor communication is viewing other monitors at a monitor connected to the
network using either view links or alarm links. Monitor-to-monitor communication is possible both
within the Datex-Ohmeda Monitor Network and the Datex-Ohmeda Network (TCP/IP). In the TCP/IP
network, the monitors must have software level S-XX99 or newer to communicate between
monitors.
The number of simultaneous view links is limited to 16 simultaneously. Alarms, real time waveform
fields, numeric fields and up to 60 minutes of trend data are transmitted. The numerical fields are
updated every 10 seconds and the trend data once a minute.
2 digit field is displayed only.
Number of alarm links is not limited. Alarm messages are transmitted from one monitor to another
via the Central as the alarm is initialized. Afterward the messages are transmitted whenever the
alarm priority has changed.
NOTE: The Datex-Ohmeda S/5 Light Monitor can be connected to the network and viewed from
other monitors, but other monitors cannot be viewed at the Light Monitor.

Technical Reference Manual
2.3.3 Storage for the patient data files and preoperative data files
You can collect patient data on the hard disk of the Central throughout the case, also during
patient transport, or if the patient is moved to another monitor (data continuum). When the monitor
is not connected to the network, you can save the data on the data card.
Patient data from the networked monitors is stored on the hard disk of the Central. The directory
where the patient data is saved is generated when the patient is admitted or the case is started.
The start time is stored in the status file, and the patient name or identification number is stored in
the identification file. Up to 48 hours of trend data is stored in the trend files, and the record keeper
events are stored in the event file. The end time of the case is added to the status file when the
case is closed or the patient discharged. You can re-open the case within a configured time, max.
24 hours (if there is preoperative data only - no trend data - the time can be extended up to 96
hours).
NOTE: You can load data from the network to the monitors with the software S-ARKXX and S-ICUXX
only and to Cardiocap/5 monitor, not to a monitors with the software S-ANEXX, or Light Monitor.
Trend data from the Light Monitor is not collected to the network, but on a card only.
2.3.4 Storage for the record keeping menu files
The record keeping menu files are stored on the hard disk of the Central during network installation.
You can load the menu pages to the monitors with the software S-ARKXX.
2.3.5 Storage for the user modes
You can use the predefined user modes with the monitors AM, CM, CCM and CMC that define the
monitor setup. You can send the user modes from a monitor to the Central’s hard disk, and load
them to other monitors.
By default, all the monitors with same software type and revision use same user modes. If part of
the monitors needs specific user modes, make a group of the desired monitors, see section 1.
2.3.6 Printing and recording trends and snapshots
Either a laser printer or a strip-chart recorder, N-REC4 can be connected to the S/5 Central. On the
laser printer the S/5 Central can print trends, waveform snapshots, anesthesia records and reports
as defined in the networked monitors. For printer and recorder setup see section “Installing a
recorder” and “Installing a printer.”
Also a network printer can be used, connected directly to the 100 Mbps hub. In that case the
printer must be equipped with a network board (default in the printers sold by Datex-Ohmeda.)
Each monitor can have access to 9 printers at the maximum.
You can start the central printing either from a monitor or the Central. Start the recorder manually
from the recorder or if it is connected to a Central it can be started automatically by an alarm.
Automatic (alarm triggered) printing is not available at the ViewStation.

2.3.7 Access to other hospital data networks
You can convert information from other hospital networks, like admission data and laboratory
results to record keeping events and send them to the monitors, and vice versa. However, you
cannot connect the Datex-Ohmeda Monitor Network or Network (TCP/IP) to the hospital
information system (HIS) directly, but via a Datex-Ohmeda IM server connected to the 100Mbps
hub. For transferring information from the system to another, refer to the S/5 Anesthesia System
Interface and Inlink manual, and to a guide for the specific datagate communication client.
For the manuals and tools required, contact your sales representative.
2.4 Time services
The Central provides time services for all connected monitors. Within the Datex-Ohmeda Network
(TCP/IP) use preferably the primary Central or a Datex-Ohmeda IM Server as a time server for other
Centrals. See 5.2.3 “System Setup” for details.
2.5 Communication in the network
The monitor registers to the monitor network by transmitting a registration message. The Central
completes the registration sequence by transmitting a registration response.
Datex-Ohmeda S/5 Central, ViewStation and Network
The monitor transmits data packets to the Central with a maximum interval of 10 seconds.
Similarly, the Central transmits data packets to the monitor with a maximum interval of 10
seconds. Even though there is no need to transmit data, dummy messages are transmitted to
maintain the communication.
In case of an interruption in the communication, the monitor attempts to register to the Central
every 10 seconds.
The data packet formula is that of standard Ethernet, but the contents are Datex-Ohmeda specific.
2.5.1 Data integrity
Data integrity means preventing or correcting possible communication errors. The error prevention
approach in the network is cyclical redundancy check (CRC). In CRC, the transmitting device
calculates a checksum for each data packet. The checksum is recalculated and compared at the
receiving device, and if no errors are detected, an acknowledgment message can be sent back. If
no acknowledgment message is received, the originating device retransmits the missing or
corrupted packet.

and general cabling standard compliance, network constraints and specifications. The hospital
system manager and the construction or electrical foreman are responsible for installation
methods, structural concerns and general cabling standard compliance. The chief physician and
the head nurse are responsible for the location of devices, access to information, aesthetics,
flexibility (ability to accommodate moves and changes), and impact (disruption) during
installation.
Datex-Ohmeda S/5 Central, ViewStation and Network
3.2.2 Site plan
Using a floor plan, carefully label where the Centrals, ViewStations, monitors and the hub will
reside. Locate the Centrals and ViewStations in an office or central desk, the monitors in patient
rooms, and the hub in a centrally located wiring closet or equipment room. Locate all devices
within an appropriate distance of a power line source.
WARNING The Centrals, ViewStations, hubs, printers and recorders are non-medical
electrical equipment. Do not locate this type of equipment in a medically used
room. If locating this type of equipment in this type of room is necessary, use an
appropriate transformer.
Sketch out a map illustrating the horizontal cable from the Central and each monitor to the hub
(star topology). If possible, use current communication facilities. Otherwise, use existing leadsthrough, risers and conduits.
Take into account electrical equipment that may generate high levels of EMI like motors and
transformers. Also, avoid power wiring, water pipes, heating ducts, etc., that will affect the cabling
system performance or the installation. Keep in mind that sensible placement of the cable allows
future expansions and connectivity.
Make an approximation of each segment cable length. According to IEEE 802.3 specifications a
twisted pair (TP) segment length may not exceed 100 m (328 ft.). The cable scanner, applied after
the cable installation, determines the exact length of the segments. To facilitate your
documentation, an example of a site plan is included in the appendices.
13
Document No. 8000633-1

3.2.3 Site planning sheet
Using a site plan, transfer each segment cable length to the site planning sheet. Write down in
which room you will locate the Central and the monitors, and to which hub port you will connect
them. Further, add the type of the monitor and the location ID. Use a separate site planning sheet
for each floor the network will extend to. To facilitate your documentation, an example of a site
planning sheet is included in the appendices.
3.2.4 Pre-installation test binder
It is recommended to collect all documentation that you receive from the pre-installation testing in
a pre-installation test binder. Include information about the hospital, distributor and subcontractor
in the binder.

3.3.1 Mon/IC-Net cables
Mon/IC-Net cables are work area cables and carry signals between Centrals or ViewStations and
wallboxes both in the monitor network and in the TCP/IP network. The cable type is category 5
unshielded twisted pair, designed to be thin and flexible. The cable is terminated with RJ-45
connectors at both ends, and the coupling method is straight through. Figure 3-2 illustrates a
Mon/IC-Net Cable.
Figure 3-2 Mon/IC-Net Cable
Datex-Ohmeda S/5 Central, ViewStation and Network
Connecting the Mon/IC-Net cable to Central/ViewStation
1. For the monitor network: connect one cable end to the network connector marked MON on
the rear panel of the Central.
For the Datex-Ohmeda Network: connect one cable end to the network connector marked
TCP/IP on the rear panel of the Central/ViewStation.
2. Connect the other end to the connector on the wallbox.
3.3.2 Mon-Net cables
Mon-Net cables are work area cables and carry signals between monitors and wallboxes. The cable
type is category 5 unshielded twisted pair, designed to be thin and flexible. The cable is terminated
with RJ-45 connectors at both ends, and the coupling method is straight through.
The Mon-Net cable includes an identification plug. The plug contains an EEPROM chip with a
unique value to identify the location of the monitor. This location ID is necessary for the network
setup. Figure 3-3 illustrates a Mon-Net Cable.

monitor.
2. Connect the identification plug to the connector on the rear panel of the monitor (in the
Network Board, B-NET).
3. Connect the other end to the connector on the wallbox.
3.3.3 Wallboxes
Wallboxes transfer signals from Mon-Net cables and Mon/IC-Net cables to horizontal cables. The
wallbox consists of one slot suitable for an RJ-45 connector. Figure 3-4 illustrates a wallbox.
Figure 3-4 Wallbox
Labeling the wallbox
Clearly label all wallboxes on both the attachment plate and the center plate. The labeling method
must be flexible to adapt to changes in the wiring. If a labeling method already exists within the
hospital, use it.
Installing the wallbox

2. Finish the horizontal cable and attach the RJ-45 connector to the attachment plate. Fasten
the plate to the surface mount box with two fastening screws.
3. Place the cover ring and the adaptation ring upon the attachment plate. Pierce the center
plate and fasten the plate to the attachment plate with two fastening screws.
3.3.4 Horizontal cables
Horizontal cables carry signals between wallboxes and horizontal patch panels. The term
"horizontal" is used because the cable runs horizontally along the floor(s) or ceiling(s).
The cable type is category 5 twisted pair, either unshielded or foiled. The unshielded twisted pair
(UTP) is thin and flexible, while the foiled twisted pair (FTP) cable is thick and fixed. The cable jacket
can optionally be standard PVC or plenum. Standard PVC cable is flame resistant to 75 °C while
plenum cable is fire retardant up to temperatures of 200 °C. Use plenum cable instead of
standard PVC in areas where a high degree of fire resistance is required such as heating,
ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) ducts. Technical data sheets for the horizontal cables are
included in the appendices. Figure 3-5 illustrates horizontal cables.

Labeling the horizontal cables
Clearly label all horizontal cables on both the local and remote end. The labeling method must be
flexible to adapt to changes in the wiring. If a labeling method already exists within the hospital,
use it.
Routing the horizontal cables
• Route the cables where they will be concealed and protected from possible damage.
• Do not route the cables in a common cabling enclosure. However, you may ground them
together in a common cabling enclosure.
• Route the cables at an adequate distance from AC power lines, air conditioning systems
and diathermy units, etc., to minimize RF and AC interference. Never route long runs of
cables parallel to AC power lines. Table 3-1 illustrates overall separations for horizontal
cables.
• Avoid routing the cables outside the building especially when prewiring. If you wish to route
cables in this fashion, slope holes bored through exterior walls upward from the outside.
Keep the size of the holes as small as possible and seal the exterior surface after you have
installed the cables.
• Route the cables without any sharp angles. The bend radius of a UTP type cable should not
be less than 8.3 cm (3.3 in.) while the bend radius for a FTP type cable should not be less
than 9.3 cm (3.7 in.).
• Route the cables and install the mounting hardware (roughing-in) after installation of the
electrical power system, but before thermal insulation and wallboards are installed when
performing prewiring.

metallic cold water pipe that is properly grounded, or
bond the ground rods together.
Page 25
Pulling the horizontal cables
• Pull the cables using 2.5 m (8.2 ft.) long pipes and pull several cables simultaneously.
• Avoid damaging the cables when pulling them. Pulling tension on a TP cable may not
exceed 11.3 kg (25 lb.) to prevent stretching the conductors.
• Be particularly careful when pulling the cables through joists and studs (especially metal
studs) to prevent damage to the cable shield.
• Install a "pull-string" with the cable runs (e.g., inside wall cavities between floors) to
facilitate pulling of future cable runs.
• After the cable is pulled, cut off 1 m (3.3 in.) of the cable end to eliminate possible damage.
Fastening the horizontal cables
• Fasten the cable securely without adversely affecting the insulation.
• Use wire clamps, wire staples, bridle rings and drive rings as fasteners when fastening and
also when changing direction of the cable to hold the cable without any sharp angles. Place
fasteners according to spacing intervals in Table 3-2.

Page 31
3.3.7 Hubs
Datex-Ohmeda S/5 Central, ViewStation and Network
All patch cables terminate in a hub that is functioning as a multiport repeater.
Four different hubs are recommended, and they can also be purchased locally:
— HUB-8 and HUB-16 are 10 Mbps hubs for the monitor network
— HUB-8FAST and HUB-16FAST are 100Mbps hubs for Datex-Ohmeda Network.
Both hub types can be connected with category 5 cabling.
NOTE: if you purchase locally a hub with selectable speed 10/100 Mbps, make sure you set the
speed to 10 Mbps when installed in the monitor network and to 100 Mbps in the TCP/IP network.
NOTE: The Datex-Ohmeda monitors use 10 Mbps network boards, and 10 Mbps hubs should be
used in the monitor networks. If a 10/100 Mbps hub with automatic speed detection is used
instead, the S/5 Central Monitor Network Board had to be configured to use 10 Mbps exclusively.
Use the 3COM NIC Diagnostic program for making the configuration. The program is available at
the 3COM EtherCD CD-ROM that has been supplied to you with the Central computer.
Figure 3-8 Hub
Connecting Hubs together
To enlarge the network, connect hubs together with a cross over cable through the RJ-45 ports or
with a terminated ThinNet coaxial cable through the BNC ports.
NOTE: The total number of the monitors connected to one monitor network (one Central) must not
exceed 32.

3.6 Post-installation testing
The post-installation testing includes a physical cabling control and a functional cabling control.
Physical cabling control
The physical cabling control is necessary to discover any physical faults within the cabling. Perform
the control by strictly comparing the original plan (documentation) to the actual cabling.
Functional cabling control
The functional cabling control is necessary to discover any functional faults within the cabling.
Perform the control using a cable scanner suitable for testing Category 5 cable systems. The tester
should give a comprehensive diagnostic view of the network by measuring the following set of
features.
− Near- end crosstalk
− Attenuation
− Length
− Attenuation to crosstalk ratio
− Impedance
− Loop resistance

5 CONFIGURING
Before configuring the Datex-Ohmeda S/5 Centrals and ViewStations all cablings must be done
and tested, and all the equipment must be installed, see chapters 0 and 0. If any changes in the
operation system configuration are required, see chapter 7.
5.1 Setup files and tools
Several configuration files define the configuration of the monitor network:
—
NETWORK.AIC defines the network configuration of the system. This file has to be the
same for each Central and ViewStation that are connected to the same Datex-Ohmeda
Network (TCP/IP).
—
MONVIEWS.AIC defines which monitors are shown on the Patient and Status Screens on
each Central and ViewStation. Each Central and ViewStation uses its own
MONVIEWS.AIC file. MONVIEWS.AIC file is edited with the View Setup software.
—
SETUP.AIC defines the general configuration of each Central and ViewStation. Each
Central and ViewStation uses its own
System Setup software.
Datex-Ohmeda S/5 Central, ViewStation and Network

• After each part of the configuration is complete, print a hard copy of the setup by clicking
File and Print.
• Save the hard copy in the installation folder.
• After the entire configuration is complete, restart the Central/ViewStation, and run the
DOCCheckup software (see page 68).
5.1.1 When to use which setup software?
Network Setup software has to be used every time when:
− a new network is installed.
− a new Central or ViewStation is added in the Datex-Ohmeda Network (TCP/IP).
− a monitor is added in the Datex-Ohmeda Monitor Network.
− a monitor is removed from the Datex-Ohmeda Monitor Network.
− networks have to be connected to/removed from each other.
For instructions, see chapter 5.2.1.
View Setup software has to be used every time when:
− a new network is installed, configuring the view setup for the first time
− a monitor is added to a view or page seen at the Central or ViewStation.
− a monitor is removed from a view or page seen at the Central or ViewStation.
For instructions, see chapter 5.2.2.
System Setup software has to be used every time when:
− a new network is installed.

− a laser printer or recorder is installed.
− alarm settings are changed.
− display settings are changed.
− password is changed.
− monitor-to-monitor communication is enabled/disabled.
− patient data path is changed.
− menu paths for record keeping functions are changed.
For general instructions, see chapter 5.2.3 and for recorder installation, see chapter 1 and for
printer installation, see chapter 7.2.
NOTE: Settings are checked during the system startup only, and become active only after the
Central or ViewStation software has been restarted.
5.2 Setup Procedure
Since the Centrals and ViewStations rely on the network setup file to get information on the network
configuration of the Datex-Ohmeda Network, it is very important that all Centrals and ViewStations
always have access to identical
when configuring the network configuration:
NETWORK.AIC files. The following procedure is recommended
1. Define the first Central you install as a Primary Central of the system.
2. Use the Network Setup always on the Primary Central only, and then copy the updated
NETWORK.AIC files in the CENTRAL\SETUP folders of the other Centrals and
ViewStations in the system.
3. After the network setup file has been copied to other Centrals and ViewStations, make
ViewSetup and SystemSetup adjustments for each Central and ViewStation.
4. Run the DOCCheckUp software on each Central and ViewStation (see chapter 9.2).

Too many open files.
Too many open sockets: Each implementation may have a maximum number of
socket handles available, either globally, per process or per thread.
Too many processes:
A Windows Sockets implementation may have a limit on the number of
applications that may use it simultaneously. WSAStartUp may fail with this error
if the limit has been reached.
Host not found:
No such host is known. The name is not an official hostname or alias, or it cannot
be found in the database(s) being queried. This error may also be returned for
protocol and service queries, and means the specified name could not be found
in the relevant database.
Invalid service provider version number.
A service provider returned a version number other than 2.0.
Valid name, no data record of requested type
The requested name is valid and was found in the database, but it does not have
the correct associated data being resolved for. The usual example for this is a
hostname -> address translation attempt (using gethostbyname which uses the
DNS (Domain Name Server), and an MX record is returned but no A record indicating the host itself exists, but is not directly reachable.
This is a non-recoverable error
This indicates some sort of non-recoverable error occurred during a database
lookup. This may be because the database files (e.g. BSD-compatible HOSTS,
SERVICES or PROTOCOLS files) could not be found, or a DNS request was
returned by the server with a severe error.
Unable to initialize a service provider. Either a service provider's DLL could not
be loaded or the provider's function failed.
Network subsystem is unavailable
The Windows Sockets implementation cannot function at this time because the
underlying system it uses to provide network services is currently unavailable.
Check:
− that the appropriate Windows Sockets DLL file is in the current path,
− that they are not trying to use more than one Windows Sockets
implementation simultaneously. If there is more than one WINSOCK DLL on
your system, be sure the first one in the path is appropriate for the network
subsystem currently loaded.
− the Windows Sockets implementation documentation to be sure all
necessary components are currently installed and configured correctly.

10 TROUBLESHOOTING
− If the monitor is connected to the monitor network, the symbol is displayed
on the monitor’s screen. NOTE: In Compact Monitor, the battery operation symbol overrides
the network symbol.
− If none of the monitors can be connected to the network, the fault is probably related to the
cabling between the Central's network board and hub.
− If only one monitor can be logged into the network, the fault is probably related to the smart
key: the smart key is probably faulty, or not inserted.
− If all the monitors, except one, can be connected to the network, the fault is probably
related to the cabling between the monitor and hub, or in the monitor, network board or
hub.
− Use also DOCCheckup utility to find if the configuration is properly done, see page 68.
The steps for the network troubleshooting are outlined in a flowchart in Table 10-1.
Datex-Ohmeda S/5 Central, ViewStation and Network
10.1 Compatibility limitations
You can only connect the monitors with the software S-XXX95, or newer to the network with the S/5
Central. If there are monitors using the record keeping software, they must be of the same revision.
You can only admit a patient from the Central (give the patient ID) with monitors equipped with a SXXX97 software, or newer.
If the monitors are equipped with L-ARK99(A) or S/5 ARK software license, they require the SCNET99, ver.1.1, or newer, network software.
For monitor-to-monitor communication over different networks, the monitor software level S-XX99
is required.
To enable connecting ViewStations to the system, the Central requires the software S-CNET99 Ver
1.2, or newer.
NOTE: Japanese monitors (softwares S-ANE97-31 or S-ICU97-31) must not be connected to the
same network with other monitors of any other language or revision, because their incompatibility
may cause errors in the network communication.
