Gateway Workstation
The Alaris DS Docking Station, although similar in appearance to the
Workstation, does not have any connectivity features. The Alaris DS
Docking Station can be identified by the number of vertical MDI tiles,
as it has an even number compared to the Workstation which has an
odd number and that the AC power Cable socket is at the front.
Note:
Please make sure to refer to the correct Workstation Directions For Use to familiarise with the specific Workstation version .
Features:
• Central management system for multiple Pumps
• Medical Device Interface (MDI) – a unique mounting mechanism providing data communications and AC power to the Pump
• Reduced cable clutter with the use of a single AC power inlet
• Efficient organisation of multiple infusion lines and configurations
• Workstation battery back-up in the event of power supply interruption
• High visibility Pump Alarm Location Beacon assists with the location of Pumps in an alarm state, when fitted
• Nurse call interface for all Pumps attached to the Workstation MDI Tiles
The Workstation supports optional upgrades to enhance the data communication interfaces and to support software for connections to
such client / server systems .
It is recommended the Workstations in a single care area should be of the same software version. Using Workstations
of different software versions could lead to inconsistent representation of Pump Alarm Signals on the Workstations.
