Alere Afinion AS100 ADCC
Configuration Guide
The Alere Afinion Data Connectivity Converter (ADCC) comes with default configuration. You need to configure it so that it connects to the Relaylink host.
Before you start
Make sure the client has ordered the ADCC directly from the manufacturer. For ordering details see: https://help.relaymed.com/hc/en-us/articles/360006610912
Depending on your setup, decide how you would like to connect the device to your internal network: directly (via Ethernet port) OR via a PC.
