REF 1057983 A Respironics V200 Ventilator Operator’s Manual 13-27
Chapter 13
Communications Option (Com1)
The Communications option allows the Respironics V200 Ventilator to:
• Print out the ventilator's screen contents.
• Communicate with a Philips/Agilent/HP VueLink module.
• Connect another device, such as a chart recorder, via the analog
output port.
Using the Communications option does not affect ventilation or monitoring.
The Communications option button (a printer icon) is displayed in the lower
right corner of the screen (Figure 13-23). The printer icon is gray if the
Communications option is not installed, not available, or a print is in progress.
