A monitor system of the type including at least one portable patient monitor for acquiring, processing and transferring patient data monitored from a patient, the system being distributed over at least two geographically separate patient monitoring areas which are interconnected via a communication network having a network node connection in each of the areas. A patient monitor docking station located in one of the patient monitoring areas provides for transmission of patient data from the portable patient monitor to the network via a selective coupling of the portable patient monitor to the network node connection. The docking station provides, in addition to the selective coupling to the portable monitor and apparatus for transferring patient data between the portable monitor and the docking station, a memory for storing network related information and transferring the network related information to the portable monitor when it is coupled to the docking station.
