C A U T I O N
y When a different wireless device is using the same frequency
(channel).
y When there are other TCON devices nearby using different channels
(groups).
y
When a cell telephone or other wireless device is being used nearby.
y When citizens broadcast bands such as amateur radio or truck radios
are used in the vicinity of the TCON operating area.
y When a computer or word processor, or electrical device that has an
internal computer, is used near the TCON device antenna.
y When the TCON device is installed or moved to a location that is
outside the radio communication range.
y If a nearby different group is set with a TCON channel frequency that
is too close to the channel frequency set for the current TCON group.
z Precautions about the Setting
y The Bidirectional Wireless Communications Module connection and
TCON Setup will be performed by our service representative. Users
should not perform this procedure as malfunction may occur.
y On TCON system, the alarm generated on this unit will be
transmitted to the central monitor with a maximum of 5 seconds
delay.
y If the TCON is set to [OFF], all TCON messages such as "Check
TCON Comm." will not be displayed.
y Check that three antenna bar marks ( ) are displayed.
y Make sure that the TCON group ID between the bedside monitor and
central monitor is the same.
y Do not move the equipments during TCON operation. The radio
waves may not be transmitted.
<There are following restrictions when connecting the DS-8001 to the
TCON network.>
y The NIBP measurement cannot be started from the central monitor
via TCON system if the NIBP measurement interval is set to 5 min. or
less, or during the 1-minute measurement or continuous
measurement. However, it can be stopped.
y When the TCON network is constructed, temperature alarm setting
cannot be changed from the central monitor.
Precautions about the Pacemaker
W A R N I N G
z Minute ventilation rate-adaptive implantable pacemakers can
occasionally interact with certain cardiac monitoring and diagnostic
equipment, causing the pacemakers to pace at their maximum
programmed rate. The cardiac monitoring and diagnostic equipment
may possibly send wrong information.
If such event occurs, please disconnect the cardiac monitoring and
diagnostic equipment, or follow the procedures described in the
operation manual of the pacemaker.
For more details, contact FUKUDA DENSHI personnel, your institution’s
professionals, or your pacemaker distributors.
z Rate meters may continue to count the pacemaker rate during
occurrences of cardiac arrest or some arrhythmias. Do not rely entirely
upon rate meter alarms. Keep pacemaker patients under close
surveillance. See this manual for disclosure of the pacemaker pulse
rejection capability of this equipment.
See “Minute Ventilation Rate-Adaptive Pacemakers”
FDA alerts health professionals that minute ventilation
rate-adaptive implantable pacemakers can occasionally interact
with certain cardiac monitoring and diagnostic equipment,
causing pacemakers to pace at their maximum programmed rate.
