Intended Use
The Broadband / Oximetry Accessory is an accessory to select Respironics ow generators which
allows recorded data to either be transmitted over a broadband internet connection or stored on an
internal SD card for later download.
Overview
The Broadband / Oximetry Accessory supports two functions:
1. Broadband - When wirelessly connected to the Broadband Wireless Router or connected to
an Ethernet cable with the available Ethernet adapter, this Broadband / Oximetry Accessory can
transmit data to EncoreAnywhere using the patient’s existing home broadband connection. See the
Setup for Broadband Use section for more information.
2. Oximetry - When connected to the appropriate oximeter and sensor, this Broadband / Oximetry
Accessory can record patient oxygen saturation and heart rate data, which can be uploaded and
viewed in EncoreAnywhere, EncorePro, or EncoreBasic. See the Setup for Oximetry Use section for
more information.

Warnings and Cautions
Warnings
• If you notice any unexplained changes in the performance of this device, if the device is dropped
or mishandled, if water is spilled into the enclosure, or if the enclosure is broken, discontinue
use and contact Respironics for assistance.
• Repairs and adjustments must be performed by Respironics-authorized service personnel only.
Unauthorized service could cause injury, invalidate the warranty, or result in costly damage.
• To reduce the risk of bodily injury and damage to the equipment, retain and follow all product
safety and operating instructions.
• If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to
determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able
to assist you in obtaining this information.
• When attaching the oximeter sensor, be careful to route the wires in a manner that will reduce
the possibility of strangulation, discomfort, or the sensors becoming detached.
• Use only the Masimo High Performance / Low Power Module and Masimo LNCS Series pulse
oximeter sensors. The sensors are manufactured to meet the accuracy specications for the
Masimo High Performance / Low Power oximeter. Using other manufacturers’ sensors can
result in inaccurate pulse oximeter performance.

• Do not use a damaged sensor.
• Before use, carefully read these instructions and the directions for use provided with the
Masimo sensor.
Cautions
• Remove power from the therapy device by unplugging the power supply cord’s connector from
the power inlet on the back of the device before proceeding with the installation instructions.
• If the device has been exposed to either very hot or very cold temperatures, allow it to adjust
to room temperature before beginning the installation procedure.
• Pins of connectors should not be touched. Connections should not be made to these
connectors unless ESD precautionary procedures are used. Precautionary procedures include
methods to prevent build-up of electrostatic charge (e.g., air conditioning, humidication,
conductive oor coverings, non-synthetic clothing), discharging one’s body to the frame of the
equipment or system or to earth or a large metal object, and bonding oneself by means of a
wrist strap to the equipment or system or to earth.
• Ensure that the SD card cover on the therapy device is replaced whenever an accessory is not
installed.
Important! From time to time, electronic devices can be affected by irregularities in the electrical
power supplies and other electrical equipment. To prevent electrical interference that
could affect the performance of your medical equipment, always keep accessories (power
supplies, battery packs, etc.) and other electrical devices (telephones, radios, etc.) away
from your therapy device when used with this accessory.

Setup for Oximetry Use
Overview
This accessory, when used with the Masimo High Performance / Low Power Module and Masimo LNCS
Series pulse oximeter sensors, can be used with System One devices to measure functional oxygen
saturation of arterial hemoglobin (%SpO2) and pulse rate for adult patients. Home care providers (HCPs)
and medical professionals can then use this data as one of several elements to evaluate patient compliance,
and if necessary, change the therapy device’s settings.
Compatibility
The accessory is compatible with the Masimo High Performance / Low Power Module and the following
Philips Respironics System One Devices:
• REMstar • REMstar Auto A-Flex
• REMstar Plus C-Flex • BiPAP Pro Bi-Flex
• REMstar Pro C-Flex+ • BiPAP Auto Bi-Flex
The Masimo High Performance / Low Power Module is compatible with the Masimo LNCS Series pulse
oximeter sensors.
Warnings
• Use only the Masimo High Performance / Low Power Module and Masimo LNCS Series pulse
oximeter sensors. The sensors are manufactured to meet the accuracy specications for the
Masimo High Performance / Low Power oximeter. Using other manufacturers’ sensors can
result in inaccurate pulse oximeter performance.
• Do not use a damaged sensor.
• Before use, carefully read these instructions and the directions for use provided with the
Masimo sensor.

Connecting an Oximeter
After you have installed the accessory into the therapy device, connect the Masimo High Performance
/ Low Power Module to the round connector as shown below. Be sure to line up the red dots on the
connectors when connecting the module.
Align the red dots on the accessory
and module connectors.
Masimo High Performance / Low Power Module Connection
Then, connect a compatible Masimo LNCS Series pulse oximeter sensor to the Masimo High Performance
/ Low Power Module, and close the clip to secure the connection. The green LED will ash until the
oximeter sensor is connected to a user. Once connected, the LED will remain solid. This indicates that a
proper connection has been established, and the device is recording oximetry data. After one minute, the
LED will dim.
5. Connect the therapy device to an AC power outlet using the supplied power adapter, and the device
will automatically turn on. The Broadband / Oximetry Accessory, gets its power from the therapy
device.
Note: After powering on, up to 30 seconds may elapse before the accessory is ready for use.

after a connection.
Verify that the Broadband / Oximetry Accessory has been installed and setup
correctly. Check that a valid SD card is correctly installed in the Broadband
/ Oximetry Accessory, and check that the Masimo High Performance / Low
Power Module and Masimo LNCS Series pulse oximeter sensor are properly
connected.
The green LED does
not light up.
Check that the Masimo High Performance / Low Power Module and Masimo
LNCS Series pulse oximeter sensor are properly connected.
Retrieving Data
Compliance data (oximetry and therapy data) may be retrieved from the accessory either by conguring
the accessory to function as a broadband modem for remote data transfer or by retrieving the data from
the accessory SD card, located on the bottom of the accessory. The SD card should be present in the
Broadband / Oximetry Accessory at all times when using the accessory to collect data.
To retrieve data from the SD card, remove the card by gently pressing the card in, which will release
it from the accessory. Then, upload the data from the SD card to EncoreAnywhere, EncorePro, or
EncoreBasic.
