Troubleshooting EIT monitoring 

If you suspect a problem with any individual measurement, read the User’s Guide for the LuMon™ Syste

[1]

 and double-check 

that you or the operator have set up the system correctly. In particular, verify proper setup and adequacy of the selected 

Analysis 

Mode

. To resolve the problem(s) that may be associated with a displayed status message, refer to section ‘status messages’ of the 

User’s Guide for the LuMon™ Syste

[1]. 

Table 4-1: Troubleshooting EIT monitoring 

Problem 

Possible cause(s) 

Recommended action(s) 

EIT0100 

Inclination displayed on 

GUI— inclination status icon 

AND inclination image — 

does not suit patient’s 

inclination 

DockingStation of SB not parallel to 

sternum of the patient. 

Position sensor is placed in the 

Matchbox of the SBC. 

Verify belt positioning and a snug fit of the belt on the ski

[1]

 

section ‘checking the proper setup’.  

Consider to adjust the routing of the SBC-cable or the 

DockingStation.  

Position sensor placed behind the 

‘bear’ in the LMB not parallel to 

sternum of the patient. 

Verify belt positioning and a snug fit of the belt on the ski

[1]

 

section ‘checking the proper setup’. 

Consider to adjust the LuMon™ Belt to align the ‘bear’ with the 

sternum of the patient. In such case the belt displacement 

needs to be measured and entered to patient data on monitor, 

again. 

EIT0101 

Rotation displayed on GUI — 

Belt-connection/ Skin-

contact/ Rotation status icon 

AND all images — does not 

suit patient’s rotation.  

DockingStation of SB not parallel to 

sternum of the patient. 

Position sensor placed in the Matchbox 

of the SBC.  

Verify belt positioning and a snug fit of the belt on the ski

[1]

 

section ‘checking the proper setup’.  

Consider to adjust the routing of the SBC-cable or the 

DockingStation.  

Position sensor placed behind the 

‘bear’ in the LMB not placed close to 

the midline of the patient. 

 

Verify belt positioning and a snug fit of the belt on the skin

 [1]

 

section ‘checking the proper setup’.  

Consider to adjust the LuMon™ Belt, positioning the ‘bear’ on 

the sternum. In such case the belt displacement needs to be 

measured and entered to patient data on monitor, again.  

EIT0102 

Status icon ‘

Belt Time’

 

displays 

‘belt time elapsed’

 

SB/LMB has been used for longer than 

the factory-preset duration a belt can 

be used.

 

  

Remove and dispose of the old belt and obtain a new belt of 

the same size to continue monitoring for the same patient.  

EIT0103 

Global Dynamic Image and 

Plethysmogram fluttering 

(Plethysmogram full of 

irregular spikes).  

Interference from other devices (e.g. 

patient monitors, high-frequency 

surgical equipment or devices emitting 

strong electromagnetic fields).  

 

 

In case of interferences from other devices – e.g. respiratory 

rate measurement through ECG electrodes – try to place the 

electrodes of the device as far from the belt as possible.  

 

 

Note :  Concerning interferences with or from  other 

devices refer to section 

‘warnings and cautions’

  of the 

User’s Guide for the LuMon™ System 

[1].

 

If the interference cannot be eliminated Contact

 a SenTec 

Authorized LuMon™ Technician, your local SenTec EIT 

representative or SenTec AG.

 

EIT0104 

Indices not reflecting patient 

situation - over or 

underestimated 

Belt applied too far caudally. If applied 

too far caudally the measurements may 

be influenced by the diaphragm. 

Verify belt positioning and a snug fit of the belt on the ski

[1]

 

section ‘checking the proper setup’.  

Consider to adjust the belt.  

Belt applied too far cranially. 

EIT0105 

Global Dynamic image is not 

inside the Lung ROIs. 

Patient and/or belt parameter not set 

properly. 

Thorax and Lung ROIs models do not 

correspond to the patient constitution 

and consequently causing either over- 

or underestimated measurements. 

If necessary, adjust the respective entries in the ‘patient & belt’ 

area of ScoutView. Enter actual (not lean or ideal) body weight 

[1]

 section ‘belt application and initiating monitoring’.  

EIT0106 

LuFuView’s indices and 

images not visible 

BB 

Analysis Mode selected and breaths 

not detected.  

 

Black vertical lines displaying the end of 

expiration and the end of inspiration 

are not visible on 

Plethysmogram. 

Verify the adequacy of the selected 

Analysis Mod

[1]

 section 

‘checking the adequacy of the selected Analysis Mode’. 

Consider to change
