System Operation

The Unity Network ID connectivity device acquires digital data from up to eight peripheral devices, processes this data, and transmits the formatted data to the monitoring network. The data can then be displayed on a clinical information system, central station, and/or GE Medical Systems Information Technologies patient monit or.
127(
Contact your GE Medical Systems Information Technologies representative for information about the monitors and software versions that are capable of receiving and displaying information from a Unity Network ID connectivity device.
Peripheral devices include anesthesia machines, continuous cardiac output monitors, gas analyzers, IV pumps, patient monitors, pulse oximeters, transcutaneous monitors, urometers, and ventilators.
Stand-Alone Mode
The Unity Network ID connectivity device operates in either a stand­alone mode or a peripheral mode of operation.
In the stand-alone mode, the Unity Network ID connectivity device provides data via the Unity Net work to one or more Unity Network devices capable of viewing remote patient data.

Peripheral Mode
Equipment Overview: System Components
n
Each peripheral device requires a unique interface adapter to obtain the patient data.
n
Each adapter is connected by cabling to one of the eight peripheral device connectors on the Unity Network ID connectivity device.
n
The monitoring network delivers the patient data to a network gateway that segregates the monitoring network from the clinical information system. The gateway separates the real-time network and the transaction-oriented network to assure reliable delivery of real-time data.
n
The gateway sends the patient data to a clinical information system or other parts of the hospital’s enterprise-wide network.
In the peripheral mode, the Unity Network ID connectivity device provides its collected data to only one Unity Network device, such as a GE patient monitor. While in this mode, other viewing devices on the Unity Network cannot view data collected by the Unity Network ID connectivity device. This mode of operation allows for data collected by non-GE Medical Systems Information Technologies equipment to be merged with data collected locally by a GE patient monitor.

Test Equipment

Power Outlet Test

Maintenance: Electrical Safety Tests
The recommended test equipment to perform electrical safety tests is listed below.
Item Specification
Leakage Current Tester Equivalent to the circuits shown
Digital Multimeter (DMM) AC volts, ohms
Ground Bond Tester 0 – 1 ohm
Before starting the tests, the power outlet from which the monitoring device will get electrical power must be checked. This test checks the condition of the power outlet to ensure correct results from leakage tests.
For international power outlets, refer to the internal standards agencies of that particular country. Use a digital multimeter to ensure that the power outlet is wired properl y.
If other than normal polarity and ground is indicated, corrective action must be taken be fore proc eeding. T he result s of t he follow ing tes ts will b e meaningless unless a properly wired outlet is used.

Ground (Earth) Integrity

Listed below are two methods for checking the ground (earth) integrity, “Ground Continuity Test” and “Impedance of Protective Earth Connection.” These tests determine whether the device’s exposed metal and power inlet’s earth (ground) connecti on has a power ground fault condition.
Ground Pin
017
Follow the test method that is required by your country/local governing safety organization.
4-6 Unity Network ID Connectivity Device Revision A
2009517-002
Ground Continuity Test
Maintenance: Electrical Safety Tests
Compliance is checked with the following steps:
1. Disconnect the device under test from the power outlet.
2. Connect the negative (-) lead of the DMM to the protect ive earth terminal (ground pin in p ower inlet conn ector) or the protective ea rth pin in the main plug (ground pin in power cord). Refer to the US 120 Vac power plug in the figure on the previous page.
3. Set the DMM to the milliohm (m) range.
4. Connect the posit ive (+) lead of the DMM to all exposed metal surfaces on the device under test. If the metal surfaces are anodized or painted, scrape off a small area in an inconspicuous place for the probe to make contact with the metal.
5. The resistance must read:
u
0.1 ohm or less without power cord
u
0.2 ohms or less with power cord
Impedance of Protective Earth Connection
This test, unlike a ground continuity test, will also stress the ground system by using special ground bond testers.
This test normally is only required as a manufacturing production test to receive safety agency compliance (e.g., IEC 60601-1). Some country agencies do require this test after field equipment repairs (e.g., Germany’s DIN VDE 0751 standards). Consult your country/local safety agency if in question.
Compliance is checked with the following steps:
1. A current not less than 10A and not exceeding 25A from a current source with a frequency of 50 or 60 HZ with a no-load voltage not exceeding 6 V is passed for at least 5 seconds through the protective earth terminal or the protective earth pin in the mains plug and each accessible metal part which could become live in case of failure in basic insulation.
2. The voltage drop between the parts described is measured and the impedance is determined f rom the current and voltage drop. It shall not exceed the values indicated:
u
For equipment without a power supply cord, the impedance between the protective earth terminal and any accessible metal part with is protectively earthed shall not exceed 0.1 ohms.
u
For equipment with a p ower sup ply cord, t he im pedance b etween the protective earth pin in the mains plug and any accessible metal part which is protectively earthed shall not exceed 0.2 ohms.
When taking this measurement, move the unit’s power cord around. There should be no fluctuations in resistance.

Microprocessor

Memory
Boot Code Memory
Technical Information: Theory of Operation
The microprocessor receives the device data from the octal UART, processes this data to extract parametric and waveform data, does trending, formats the data for sending, and outputs the data to the monitoring network.
Memory resources for code storage and execution, nonvolatile data and configuration storage are provided by the following:
n
Boot code memory
n
Main code memory
n
Volatile RAM memory
n
Nonvolatile memory
A 128k x 8bit, uniformly sectored boot flash PROM is used to store the boot code. It can be updated by reprogramming it with new code from a download server on the network . The FLASH PROM pr ovides storage for the Ethernet and IP addresses and some configuration data.
Main Code Memory
Volatile RAM Memory
Nonvolatile Memory
The main code for the microprocessor is stored in two 16M-bit flash EPROMs configured as 32-bits wide providing a total of 4M bytes for code storage. The speed will allow for no-wait state code execution. The code is updatable by reprogramming with new code from a download server on the network.
The main ‘scratch pad’ memory is 4M-bytes of DRAM memory provided by two 16M-bit DRAMs configured as 32 bits wide. The refresh of this memory is provided by the DRAM controller internal to the microprocessor. The address multiplexing is accomplished with the microprocessor’s internal multiplexer.
The SRAM is lithium battery backed, 16-bits wide, and used for non­volatile memory storage. The non-volatile memory stores the setup, trended and configuration data. This type of data is required to be retained even in the absence of power being applied. The nonvola tile memory, comprised of battery backed up RAM, will retain data for at least five years after the date of manufacture of the circuit board.

Peripherals

Realtime Clock
UARTs
Technical Information: Theory of Operation
The processor PCB supports the following peripherals:
The realtime clock (RTC) provides a means of time stamping trends and for time tagging any events that require it. The RTC is battery backed and protected from corruption during power transitions up or down. The RTC uses an internal quartz crystal oscillator.
The eight peripheral device connectors are interfaced with an oc tal UART, and the RS 232 service connector is interfaced wit h one of the integrated UARTs of the microprocessor. The UARTs are capable of operating at 22 standard baud rates in the 50-115.2k range, specifically: 50, 75, 150, 200, 300, 450, 600, 900, 1200, 1800, 2400, 3600, 4800, 7200, 9600, 14.4k, 19.2k, 28.8k, 38.4k, 57.6k, and 115.2k bps; at 5, 6, 7 or 8 data bits; 1, 1.5, or 2 stop bits; with even, odd or no parity. The service connector UART is capable of operating at 9600 bps, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, and no flow control.
In addition to the above capability, the octal UART has sixteen byte FIFOs on both the receiver and transmitter and I/O port pins that function as RTS/CTS modem control bits. The benefit of the FIFO is to reduce the overhead to the microprocessor when servicing the UARTs. The octal UART interrupt is a level six autovector.
Ethernet Serial Interface Adapter
The microprocessor has an integrated Ethernet controller that uses a companion, communication chip, designated as the Ethernet serial interface adapter. It provides the serial interface, clock generation/ recovery functions, and other network related support.
Power-On Reset/Watchdog
The power-on reset and watchdo g function a re provide d external ly to the microprocessor supervisory circuit. The microprocessor supervisory circuit has a 4.65V threshold for generating a power on/off reset, a 1.6 second watchdog time out, and power fail comparator accuracy within a 2% tolerance.

Technical Information: Theory of Operation

Communication Interface

Communication with the Unity Network ID connectivity device is accomplished primarily betwee n external vendor devices and the monitoring network. Communication packets are forma tted fo r sta ndard Ethernet network protocol by the microprocessor. This protocol is based on the industry standard of UDP/IP protocol of the IEEE 802.3 standard. The OSI model layers implemented are as follows:
n
Application — Parameter data structure
n
Presentation — BEDMSG structure
n
Session — UDP
n
Transport — IP
n
Network — IEEE 802.3 packet structure
n
Data link — IEEE 802.3 transceiver
n
Physical — IEEE 802.3 bus
Serial Communication Interface
The UART based serial communication is between the eight external devices and the Unity Network ID connect ivity de vi ce using ei gh t dev ice­specific interface adapters.
Peripheral Device Connectors
The peripheral device connectors are designed to provide reliable operation with cable lengths of up to 50 feet of category 5 cable. All external vendor devices communicate with the Unity Network ID connectivity device through the octal UART and RS 232 interface. This interface is isolated from the earth referenced circuitry as well as each other RS 232 port. The vendor device interface consists of the standard RS 232 signals of Transmit (TX), Receive (RX), Ready to Send (RTS), Clear to Send (CTS) and Data Terminal Ready (DTR) as well as a unique device identification scheme (SERIAL_ID) which uses a “one wire interface” chip.
The signal lines are isolated using optocouplers which are rated for one minute at 2500V rms isolation voltage. The SERIAL_ID line is bidirectional requiring two more optocouplers to provide isolation and speed to lessen the burden on the microprocessor.
Each port has an associated bi-color LED. When the LED is green, it indicates that the communication channel is operating acceptably. When the LED is amber flashing or steady, a problem is indicated such as inconsistent or bad device ID received, or that communication is missing or not acceptable. Isolated +5 voltage is provided for each peripheral device connector in case future interface adapters require power.
7-6 Unity Network ID Connectivity Device Revision A
2009517-002
Isolated DC/DC Converters
RS 232 Service Connector
Technical Information: Theory of Operation
Isolated power for the eight interfacing ports and service port is accomplished using a DC/DC converter. For each port, a transformer driver/chopper IC chops the +5V source and symmetrically drives each end of the center tapped transformer primary (i.e., T2). The center tapped secondary allows for full wave rectification using two rectifier diodes. The rectified, fil tered ra w DC is r egu l a te d by a v o lt a ge r e gu lat o r. The transformer for each port is specifically designed f or this application. It has an isolation voltage of 2000V RMS for one minute, a 3:4 turns ratio to step up the voltage enough to compensate for t he voltage drop of the rectifier.
The processor PCB provides a dedicated RS 232 connector as a service port. This connector is a standard nine pin female D- type connector and accommodates the standard PC pin out for RS 232 serial communication with a personal computer or terminal. The service connector is used to configure the Unity Network ID connectivity device with its IP address, unit name/bed number, device ID number, to download new code, to set the time and date, and to provide a connection for a polled parameter service.

Ethernet Communication

The processor PCB provides connectivity to the monitoring netw ork through an RJ-45 twisted-pair (TP) connector J12. The networking facility is provided by the Ethernet serial interface adapter and the microprocessor. Loopback and link-test disable features, which ar e unique to the twisted-pa ir interface, are under software control. The Ethernet serial interface adapter provides four LED drivers for indicating transmit (DS11), receive (DS12), collision (D13), and link OK (DS14).
The twisted -pair interface is accomplished with two differential pairs, LAN_TRANSMIT and LAN_RECEIVE, that are filtered, isolated, ESD protected and communicate through t he standard 8 -pin RJ-45 connect or.

Power Supply Conversion

Power Entry Module
The AC line power entry module is PCB mounted and consists of an IEC­320 receptacle and a green, illuminated on/off switch. A green power switch indicates that power is applied to the processor PCB. This light is directly off the AC line and not under microprocessor control.
Fuses
Each side of the AC line is fused by t wo 2.0 amp fuses internal to the power supply. They are not field serviceable.
Main +5V Supply
The power supply is a PCB-mounted, off-line, switching supply providing +5V at 2A for a total output power of 10W. AC line voltage is supplied to the processor PCB through a power connector from the power entry module.

ESD Protection

ESD protection for each of the eight RJ-45 connectors consis ts of a typical dual diode/dual transorb arrangement, with the transorbs referenced to the isolated return plane. Earth ground is referenced by using a 100M resistor between the Earth Gro und and the isolated ret urn plane. ‘Planar capacitance’ with series impedance is used to drop the amplitude and decrease the edge rate of the ESD pulses. This ‘planar capacitance’ is implemented by placing the +5V_RETURN plane, which is earth referenced, in an adjacent inner layer in the PCB directly below the isolated return plane.
