Preparation for Monitoring
This section describes how to turn ON/OFF the power.
WARNING
 Use only the accompanying 3-way AC power cable. Use of
other cables may result in electric shock to the patient and
the operator.
 The power cable must be connected to a hospital grade
outlet.

When using multiple ME equipment simultaneously, perform
equipotential grounding to prevent potential difference
between the equipments. Even a small potential difference
may result in electric shock to the patient and the operator.
NOTE
Equipotential Grounding
When connecting multiple devices, electrical potential difference
may be generated between the devices. This may result in
electric shock to the patient connected to these devices. Pay
special attention for use in Operating Room, ICU, CCU, Cardiac
Catheter Laboratory, and Cardiovascular X-ray room. To avoid
such electrical potential difference, use the ground cable to
connect each device’s potential equalization terminal to the
same ground terminal. This is called equipotential grounding.
