BeneLink Module Operator’s Manual 1-1

1.2 Warnings
WARNING
The BeneLink module receives parameter, alarm, and waveform data
from external devices but will not modify this data. For example, the
external device may display "---", b ut send "0" to the patient monitor.
There can be differences between the alarm priorities displayed on
your patient monitors and the priorities displayed on external devices
interfaced through BeneLink. For details please
see "Output signals –
Alarms" section corresponding with each external device.
1.3 Cautions
CAUTION
First installation and debugging should be executed by Mindray
service personnel or authorized technician.
Please check the compatibility of the external device and the ID
adapter before connection. Not doing so may may result in failure of
the two devices to work together as desired.
Ports on the BeneLink module are not conventional network
connectors. They are intended for connecting with the serial port of
designated devices only. Do not connect them to public network
interfaces.
The sign al labels used on the patient monitor may be different from those
given on the external device. For det ails please see "Output signals
Parameters" sec tion corresponding with each external device. The alarms
from ext ernal devices may be delayed before transmission to the patient
monitor
.

1-2 BeneLink Module Operator’s Manual

1.4 Notes
NOTE
Devices of the same category cannot be connected to the BeneLink
module simultaneously.
The BeneVision N Series monitor supports up to two BeneLink
modules, while the Passport M Series supports only one.
The alarm messages from external devices are derived from the open
protocol of corresponding external device. For more information about
these alarms, please see the operator’s manual of the corresponding
devices.
For the intended use and contraindication of the external devices, refer
to their operator’s manuals.
When displayed in the monitor main screen, parameter labels of
external devices are prefixed with the plus sign “+”. For example, if
SpO2 is from an external device, its label is displayed as “+SpO2”, and
its waveform label is displayed as “+Pleth”.
A plus sign “+” is added before each alarm message from external
devices.

2 Interfacing with External Devices
2.1 BeneLink Introduction
BeneLink module is intended for connecting external devices, such as ventilators and
anesthesia machines, to the BeneVision N Series monitors or Passport 12m/17m
monitors. It allows information (patient data, alarms, etc.) from external devices to be
displayed, saved, recorded, or printed through the monitor. If the monitor is
connected with the central monitoring system (CMS) or eGateway, information from
external devices can also be transmitted to the CMS or eGateway.
2.2 Physical Specifications
The physical specifications of the BeneLink module are as follows:
Size:136.5×40×102 mm
weight:0.35 kg
BeneLink Module Operator’s Manual 2-1

2.3 Data transmission
The Benelink module is connected with external devices via the serial ports (physical
interfaces are RJ45 connectors). You can simultaneously connect up to four external
devices via one BeneLink module. Parameters, alarm data from the external devices
can be output. For BeneVision N Series monitors, respiratory waveforms and loops
from the external devices can also be output. BeneVision N Series monitors can
output the parameter measurements, alarm limit settings, and alarm status to
external devices via the DIAP protocol (Datascope Improved ASCII Protocol).
