3-4 Dash Port 2 Docking Station Revision A
2000966-138
Installation: Requirements
&$87,216
MPSO — Do not use a multiple portable socket outlet
(MPSO) for a system because it could result in
unacceptable enclosure leakage currents.
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD — To reduce the
potential for orthopedic injury, mount the docking station
at a height which prevents overextension of the user’s
arms when connecting and disconnecting the monitor.
DOCKING STATION POWER REQUIREMENTS —
Before connecting the device to the power line, check that
the voltage and frequency ratings of the power line are
the same as those indicated on the docking station and
the monitor's label. If this is not the case, do not connect
the system to the power line until you adjust the monitor
to match the power source. See the Installation chapter of
the Dash Patient Monitor Service Manual to change the
voltage selector setting.
In U.S.A., if the installation of this equipment will use
240V rather than 120V, the source must be a center-
tapped, 240V, single-phase circuit.
This equipment is suitable for connection to the public
mains as defined in CISPR 11.
Location
Docking Station
„ Choose a location which provides an unobstructed view of the
monitor screen and easy access to the operating controls.
„
Use only the original power cable or an equivalent one.
„ Ensure the power outlet is wired correctly. See “AC Line Voltage
Test” on page 5-4.
Remote Display
„ Follow the manufacturer guidelines and your facility guidelines to
mount the remote display.
„
The video cable should NOT exceed 45.72 meters (150 feet) in length.
„ The remote display does NOT provide audible patient or system
alarms. Therefore, GE recommends that you mount the remote
display in a location that allows the clinician to see and hear the
patient and system alarms that originate from the patient monitor.
