How do I download data from the Rigel devices to Med-eBase?

There are two ways to download data from the Rigel range which is dependent on which Rigel product you are using. The methods are divided into A and B:

A. Electrical Safety Analysers (288+, 62353+) and Vital Signs Simulators (Uni-Sim, BP Sim and SP-Sim)

B. Performance analysers (Uni-Therm, Uni-Pulse 400, Multi-Flo)

1) Downloading from any Rigel device to Med-eBase can be initiated from the Download option in the Tools menu or by using the Download icon on the taskbar (See Figure 1)

3) With either method select the relevant Instrument Type from the drop down list.

Method A

Ensure you have the correct Baud Rate (the default is 57600) and COM Port selected. The COM port is defined by your Bluetooth connection. For data cable connection using RS 232 cable this will be COM1 and this will need to be set at 9600. 

If you do not see the correct COM Port displayed in the drop down menu, select Re-scan COM Ports to refresh the available COM Port list.

Note: If using an RS-232 adaptor the device will say connected immediately. Please wait a few seconds between selecting download on Med-eBase and Send (F4) on the tester
