Abstract

A first aspect provides a receiver unit for a monitor system having a first wireless transceiver for communicating with a monitor unit with a first processor, and a second processor at for processing monitoring data. The second processor has a sleep mode to reduce power consumption, and the first processor wakes the second processor from the sleep mode in response to dialogue between the first processor and the monitor unit. The first aspect also provides the monitor system with the receiver unit and the monitor unit. A second aspect provides a monitor system of a receiver unit and a monitor unit, each with a Wi-Fi module. The monitor system has a first mode in which the first and second Wi-Fi modules communicate directly with each other and a second mode in which the first and second Wi-Fi modules communicate with each other via a Wi-Fi access point. The two modes are implemented simultaneously to create two simultaneous logical paths.
