To activate the Wireless feature on the OU (wireless LED flashing), it is required to connect the OU and
DU using a wired connection, and toggle the wireless setting off then back on in the DU Networks
parameters screen. Once wireless is turned on, the communication cable can be removed.
When using wireless communication between the OU and DU, factors such as distance and disturbances
from nearby equipment can impact quality of signal. In such cases, a message will appear on screen to
indicate information loss. Communication link will be reset if data loss is recurring. To correct this
situation, relocating the OU and DU to reduce the distance (approximately 10 m line-of-sight) and/or
proximity to other equipment may help. If problem persists, a wired connection may be required.
Connecting the Handle Unit
The Handle Unit is suitable for installation within patient environment. The Handle Unit is the
connection cable between the OptoWire pressure guidewire and the Optical Unit.
1-
Handle Unit connects to the Optical Unit.
Ensure secure connection of both the
electrical connection (white) and square
optical connection (green).
2-
The OptoWire pressure Guidewire
connects to the square optical connector
of the Handle Unit.
CAUTIONS:
•
The Handle Unit must be placed outside of the sterile field.
•
The optical connectors must be cleaned before connection. Refer to section 10.1.3
Optical Connectors for cleaning instructions.
•
To keep optical connector clean, it is always recommended to keep the Handle Unit
connected to the Optical Unit. Disconnect only when the unit needs replacing.
•
Avoid dropping the Handle Unit as it may cause damage to the device. Do not use the
device if it appears damaged or deformed.
•
Always reinstall the dust cap protector(s) on the optical connector(s). Dust entering
the connector(s) may reduce the optical signal quality and generate “No optical
signal” warning messages.
