Cannot Connect to Edwards Vigilance II #356

I am having trouble getting any data out of an Edwards Vigilance II cardiac monitor. I have set the baud rate to 9600 as instructed by the Hardware Connection guide, but it still isn't reading anything. Any help would be appreciated.

It seems like the issue was that I was using a straight-through serial-to-usb cable and not a crossover. Additionally, any information that can be offered on the Edwards IFMout protocol used by their devices would be extremely appreciated.

Well even though I can see data coming directly through serial, Vital Recorder refuses to show any parameters for the Vigilance (it's a Vigilance II but that isn't a device option). Any help would be greatly appreciated, I need to be able to record this ASAP.
