INITIAL SETUP & ASSEMBLY 

Contents 

The following components are included in the Controller shipping carton: 

 

1—Controller Model WC7X 

 

1—Mains power cord 

 

1—IV pole adapter and mounting hardware  

 

1—HotDog Warming Blanket Cable (P/N A101)  

Reusable HotDog accessories are sold separately. 

Mounting the Controller to an IV Pole 

To mount the Controller to an IV pole, first secure the IV pole adapter to the Controller with the provided screws. 

Place the Controller IV pole adapter around the IV pole and turn the clamp handle clockwise until securely 

tightened (

Figure 1

).  

Caution   

To prevent the IV pole from tipping, attach the Controller at a height that provides stability. It is recommended to 

use an IV pole with a minimum wheelbase radius of 35.6 cm (14 in) and to mount the Controller no higher than 

112 cm (44 in) from the floor. Failure to properly mount the Controller may cause the IV pole to tip, possibly 

resulting in injury. 

Figure 1: Controller Mounted on an IV Pole 

 

Line up the mounting clamp with the  

bottom two sets of screw holes. 

IMPORTANT: The clamp will not fit 

on the top two sets of screw holes. 

 

Ensure the power cable 

is in the clamp slot to 

strain relief cable. 

Tighten screws using 

supplied Allen wrench.

 

 

Mount the Controller to 

the IV pole  

and tighten the clamp

 

 

Optional storage 

rack sold 

separately.  

Attach if available. 

The back of the Controller features a standard VESA 75mm x 75mm interface, allowing for additional mounting 

options when using top and bottom holes. The provided IV pole clamp only works with the bottom four holes. 

Rotate the clear cable-retention loop down on the side of the Controller. Use the loop to assist with cable 
management when the Controller is mounted to an IV pole.
