Monitoring Station configuration options
As mentioned in “Configuration options” on page 5, there are various options for
configuring the SmartLink Wireless components which will receive 12-lead transmissions.
This section describes the possible configurations.
Monitoring Station without Gateway
The SmartLink Wireless Monitoring Station may be installed and run without the use of
the SmartLink Wireless Gateway (see
“Figure 2: Monitor station without Gateway” ). This
is the typical installation configuration prior to version 2.10 of the system. In this
configuration the system will be a dedicated computer typically located in the ED on an
isolated network such as a dedicated high speed internet connection or in the DMZ.

Both the SmartLink Wireless Monitoring Station software and the eSync application are
connected to the Internet. The PC running the monitoring station software requires a
fixed IP address and two port assignments. This fixed IP address must be accessible to
eSync on PDAs as a public address on the internet or through a VPN. If network address
translation (NAT) is used the address may be assigned to a router rather than directly to
the monitoring station. This is the same IP address that is then entered in the Server
Address field when adding the Server to the eSync application’s Server list (see
“SmartLink Wireless Monitoring Station installation” on page 8). When installing the
SmartLink Wireless software, ensure that the IP address and ports are not blocked by any
firewall. Contact your Network Administrator concerning this subject.
In this configuration, the gateway and gateway client will not be installed.
