A hospital in Germany donated an M3150 Rev J PIIC Classic to a hospital in Ethiopia I volunteered at. The Sectors and Pt Window is in German, yet the service area is English. The language box is grayed out (shows German). What is the process to change the info the users see into English? The Ethiopian medical community uses English with all of it's equipment.

We use correlog as a tool to gather and forward logs but it is not approved by Philips. Is there another method or work around for SIEM logs on Philips servers?

Or words to that effect.. this may be more a server configuration issue, but apparently the PIC Ix can print to the printer okay, but if a print request is made from a patient monitor, the above error happens. Any ideas? Suggestions? Thanks!

Wondering where I would find a reference to FSE use of system validation on service calls, kind of like the PIP for defibs?

Hello all, Just wondering if PIIC iX requires the M4841A to have a specific Firmware revision to operate. Currently all of my M4841As have Firmware Rev. C.00.58, but I have heard that Firmware Rev. D.00.22 is better/more compatible with PIIC iX. We are running PIIC iX Rev. B. I have not had any reported issues of our C.00.58s not working, but I just wanted to confirm and be sure there shouldn't be any issues. Thanks In Advance!!

We have a new install of the the new Center iX system. The application randomly crashes and restarting, sometimes not restarting at all causing all of our monitoring to fail into a local mode. Philips will not acknowledge that there is a bug with the software. If anyone else has this system I'd be interested to hear what your experiences are with it.

When checking the windows event logs it always shows the PIIC iX server crashing.
