ZOLL Administration Software
ZOLL Administration Software helps you perform software maintenance tasks when your
defibrillator is connected to your personal computer (PC). ZOLL Administration Software lets you
upload data from a defibrillator to a PC, then transmit that data to your main network, or print the data
locally from your PC to your printer.
See the online Help for instructions on how to use ZOLL Administration Software.
Installing ZOLL Administration Software
To install ZOLL Administration Software, insert the ZOLL Administration Software CD into the
CD-ROM drive on your PC. The installation program starts automatically.
If the installation program does not start automatically:
• Select RUN from the Start menu.
• In the Open field, enter
X
:Setup.exe, where
X
is the correct letter of your CD-ROM drive.
• Click OK.
• Follow the instructions that appear on the screen to complete the installation.
RescueNet Code Review Software
RescueNet Code Review software allows you to analyze resuscitation incident information uploaded
from the ZOLL AED Plus defibrillator to a personal computer (PC). Using RescueNet Code Review
software, you can:
• access and review patient event information
• add or modify patient information
• view animated versions of ECG traces
• annotate ECG traces
• print ECG stripcharts and case reports
See the
RescueNet Code Review User’s Guide
for more information.
Setting Up Data Communications
You can exchange data between a ZOLL AED Plus unit and a personal computer without any cable
connection by transferring data using two IrDA (infrared interface standard) ports. One IrDA
™
port
is located on the side of the ZOLL AED Plus unit. The second IrDA
™
port may be on your personal
computer. In some cases, you will be sending data from the IrDA port on your unit to an IrDA port on
a modem which then transmits the data to a remote computer.
For best transmission results, IrDA ports must be facing each other and the path between the two
devices must be clear of obstacles. Beaming distances between devices may vary but should be at least
10 inches and not more than 18 inches. Power up the PC and have the ZOLL Administration Software
and/or RescueNet Code Review software running. Press and hold the ON/OFF Button on the AED for
at least 5 seconds to establish contact with the computer or modem. Once connected properly, you hear
the
COMMUNICATIONS ESTABLISHED
audio prompt and see a message on your computer screen
that the connection was successful.
