Biophone

[Jean-Marc Dugas]

I just received another piece of equipment for the 54 xl, this really nice biophone.

Would anyone have or could point me in the right direction for a user's manual for this item?

I was able to get in contact with a gentleman that used to work for BioCom and is actually restoring a couple of these units. We had a good conversation this morning.

He has a website dedicated to these units. Lots of good information there.

If you remember the orange box from Rescue 51 that they used to contact Rampart and send ECGs, this is the next model produced in the early 80s.

Attached is the brochure for the Biophone Model 3550

What i thought it was. The lack of advanced life support on the frontier did not bring out any of this earlier equptment here. So we missed the mother may I days of EMS.

Biophone update

 

[Jean-Marc Dugas]

I had the local Battery House build me a dual purpose charging system for the Biophone where I can either use a transformer connected into the wall or connect through the car's 12V system.

I was also able to test the unit's Rx and Tx functions and it was a success on 9 of the 10 channels. I was able to speak with my cousin which is located 15.4 kms (9.6 miles) from me as the crow flies.
