3.2. Monitor installation.
For normal use,
Omicrom FT
can be placed on a horizontal surface; four feet are
attached to the base of the monitor to provide a firm placement. It can also be
attached to a vertical or horizontal bar using the adapters that are supplied as
optional accessories.
Check that the fuses placed into the monitor are of the correct rating and type.
Connect the equipotential earth terminal to the potential equalization conductor of
the electrical installation where the monitor is going to be placed, if this conductor
is available or if it is a mandatory requirement.
Finally, plug AC Power Cord into the male plug placed at the rear part of the
monitor and plug the other side into a female plug of the electrical installation, that
must have three wires to guarantee the right monitor earthing.
It must be considered the different cables that must be connected to the monitor
and provide clearance for the front attached connectors, hoses, cables and
sensors for the different parameters so that connections are not subject to strain
at any time. In the rear part of the equipment, the power cord and communications
cable may be connected. The communication connector is labelled as PC-COM,
and the cord is optionally provided.
Cable and patient’s sensor connections are as follows:
•
The temperature probe is connected to the ¼“ phone jack at the front lower
left-hand side of the Omicrom FT.
•
The NIBP monitoring pneumatic hose connector is connected to the front
lower right-hand side of Omicrom FT. Connect the hose by plugging-in and
gently pressing the male connector into this female connector. This is a
security type of connector that cannot be disconnected by pulling the cable,
thus preventing an accidental disconnection. Disconnect the cable by gently
pulling the connector outer ring.
•
Pulse oximetry uses a security type of connector (black color code) that
cannot be disconnected by pulling the cable, thus preventing accidental
disconnection. To guarantee the proper connection, different guides are
used for this connector. To disconnect the Pulse oximetry connector, gently
pull the rear grey part of the connector.
•
A Nicolay type connector is used for ECG (green color code) and invasive
pressure (orange color code) measurements that cannot be disconnected by
pulling the cable, thus preventing accidental disconnection. To ensure the
correct connection, different guides are used for each connector. To
disconnect the cable gently pull the connector body.
During the installation stage, it is necessary to make sure that the air vents placed
in the rear part of the chassis are unobstructed, to allow for heat dissipation.
After receiving the monitor, it is not necessary to perform any selection or
adjustment monitor.
