Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Maintenance
Merlin™ 2 PCS and Merlin PSA: Service must be performed at the factory or by an authorized
service representative only. The Merlin 2 PCS and its accessories, including the Merlin PSA,
contain no user-serviceable parts.
NOTE: For information on the Merlin PSA maintenance and troubleshooting, see the
Merlin PSA on-screen help.
Cleaning or Disinfecting
To clean or disinfect the exterior of the Merlin™ 2 PCS, Merlin PSA, Merlin Antenna, and ECG
cables:
- Wipe the case with a damp micro-fiber cloth moistened with a mild cleaning solution.
Recommended solutions include: Hand soap or dishwashing soap, isopropyl alcohol
(concentration less than or equal to 90%), chlorine beach, or hydrogen peroxide.
To clean or disinfect the Merlin 2 PCS touch-screen display:
- To clean: Gently wipe the touchscreen with a damp micro-fiber cloth.
- To disinfect: Wipe the touchscreen with a damp micro-fiber cloth moistened with a mild
cleaning solution. Recommended solutions include: Isopropyl alcohol (concentration
less than or equal to 90%), chlorine beach, or hydrogen peroxide.
NOTE: High concentration alcohol is not recommended because it could damage the
touchscreen.
- Do not spray the solution directly onto the touchscreen, and do not allow the cleaning
solution to puddle at the edges of the touchscreen.
WARNING: Keep liquid out of the system's interior, and never spray liquid directly onto
the Merlin 2 PCS or its accessories; otherwise damage may result. If liquid should get
into the system's interior, contact your local Abbott Medical representative. Damage
could occur that is not visible.
CAUTION: Do not modify the Merlin 2 PCS without the authorization of the
manufacturer.
Programmer Self Test/Preventive Maintenance
When you turn on the Merlin™ 2 PCS, the device performs a self-test of the internal hardware
and software. If the test fails, the programmer displays a message explaining the cause of the
failure.
Should the self-test fail, turn off the programmer, wait 30 seconds, and then restart the
programmer. If the self-test fails again, contact Technical Support (page 2).
The programmer and its electronic accessories have been designed with digital circuitry and do
not require calibration.
Telemetry Wand Sterilization
To sterilize the telemetry wand or cables, place the item in a gas-permeable package and sterilize
it in ethylene oxide. Do not exceed 50°C (122°F). After sterilization, allow sufficient time for
complete aeration of ethylene oxide prior to use. This process may be shortened by forced
ventilation. Use biological controls to verify the effectiveness of sterilization.
