The DataSim has three separate available cardiac output modules. The first is for 0 degree C injectate temperature. It is part number 2244588. The second available module is for 25 degree C injectate temperature. It is part number 2244602. These two modules consist of two separate boxes. One plugs into the personality port on the DataSim 6100 and has a 3 pin connector for the bath temperature connector from your catheter set. The other box for these modules is a free standing box with a 4 pin connector for connecting the injectate temperature cable.

If you use a multimeter and measure the voltage between the positively charged tip of the jack and the barrel of the jack the unloaded voltage should be approximately 28 volts.

No, the DataSim 6100 uses a unique 7 pin blood pressure cable that is unlike any cable that our other simulators use. Therefore, any other 5 pin blood pressure cables will not work with the DataSim.

There are several personality modules available which will allow you to perform many more simulations than the standard simulation package that comes with the DataSim 6100. Intra-aortic balloon pump, Pediatric ECG, intra-cranial pressures, pacing, cardiac output, and many ECG and blood pressure modules are available.

Since the only physical connection to the monitor is the cuff tubing adapter, there is no way for the CuffLink to know what reading is being displayed by the monitor. Therefore, during both medtester and computer control you will need to manually insert the test result for most simulations.

There are both static and dynamic simulations that can be sent from the CuffLink. Accuracy specifications refer to static blood pressure measurements such as the "Manometer" test. The static pressure tests are normally very accurate. Since the usual test function of the CuffLink is to provide a dynamic blood pressure simulation such as 120/80, and due to the probable difference between the algorithm used by the CuffLink and the algorithm expected by the monitor, perfect accuracy can not be expected.

The part number for the neonatal cuff mandrel is 2392328. The part numbers for the pieces of the adult mandrel are 2392381 for each center spacer block (3 are required) and 2392370 for each end block (2 are required).

The part number for the entire set of 8 cuff/hose adapters is 2245300.

Before sending your CuffLink in for service if the screen is blank try adjusting the Display View switch on the right side of the front of the CuffLink. Someone may have bumped the switch too far to the right or left. Turn the switch to the middle of the travel on the switch and the display should be ok. If not, you should call the service department at (888)993-5853 option 1for a RMA to send the CuffLink back for repair.

No, the auscultatory option is no longer available. The CuffLink will now perform only oscillometric non invasive blood pressure simulations.
