E-7 2001989-301A- draft 1ApexPro™1-1 1Introduction 1-2ApexPro™2001989-301A- draft 1 Introduction Manual information Purpose This manual contains the instructions necessary to operate the ApexPro telemetry system safely and in accordance with its function and intended use. It also contains limited instructions necessary to operate the telemetry system when used with the CIC Pro Clinical Information Center. For more information, refer to Related documents on page 1-2. Intended audience This manual is intended for clinical professionals. Clinical professionals are expected to have a working knowledge of medical procedures, practices, and terminology, as required for monitoring of critically ill patients. Related documents This manual is intended to be used in conjunction with the CIC Pro Clinical Information Center Operator’s Manual (PN 2026421-001) and the CIC Pro Clinical Information Center Bedrock Hardware Platform Service Manual (PN 2026421-002). This manual assumes that you are familiar with the operating procedures of the CIC Pro Clinical Information Center. It uses the CIC Pro software version 5 (or later) user interface for procedures, navigation and illustration purposes. If your system uses an earlier CIC Pro software version, you may notice minor discrepancies between what you see on the equipment and the information presented in this manual. Refer to the documentation provided with your system for the most accurate operator’s and service instructions. Conventions used Equipment terms This manual uses the following terms to simplify common equipment names. TermDescription ATSRefers to the ApexPro Telemetry Server. CIC Pro centerRefers to the CIC Pro Clinical Information Center. MonitorRefers to a bedside monitor, transport monitor, blood pressure monitor, or a wireless monitor on the Unity Network. PrinterRefers generically to a direct digital writer or a laser printer. ServerRefers to the ApexPro Telemetry Server (ATS) or a CIC Pro center with a BCM or Nightshade server.

Introduction 2001989-301A- draft 1ApexPro™1-13 CAUTION 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 unit's label. If this is not the case, do not connect the system to the power line until you adjust the unit to match the power source. In the U.S.A., if the installation of this equipment will use 240 V rather than 120V, the source must be a center-tapped, 240V, single- phase circuit. This equipment is suitable for connection to public mains as defines in CISPR 11. CAUTION RESTRICTED SALE — U.S. federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician. CAUTION SECURITY — The web browser which runs in conjunction with the ApexPro server is intended for hospital INTRANET use only. If confidential patient information is made available from the hospital intranet, the security of the data is the responsibility of the hospital. CAUTION SUPERVISED USE — This equipment is intended for use under the direct supervision of a licensed health care practitioner. CAUTION UNINTENTIONAL RADIO FREQUENCY (RF) INTERFERENCE — Unintentional RF interference could degrade the reliability and performance of the wireless data link. The facility must maintain an RF environment free from unintentional interference. Refer to the service manuals for more information. CAUTION VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS — Set up the device in a location which affords sufficient ventilation. The ventilation openings of the device must not be obstructed. The ambient conditions specified in the technical specifications must be ensured at all times. 1-14ApexPro™2001989-301A- draft 1 Introduction Notes Note statements provide application tips or other useful information. The following note statements apply to this system. „Put the CIC Pro center in a location where you can easily see the screen and access the operating controls. „This product is not likely to cause abnormal operation of other patient-connected equipment such as cardiac pacemakers or other electrical stimulators. Exceptions are noted in the pacemaker monitoring section, if applicable. „This product is protected against the effects of cardiac defibrillator discharges to ensure proper recovery, as required by test standards. „This equipment is suitable for use in the presence of electrosurgery. Equipment symbols NOTE Some symbols may not appear on all equipment. ATTENTION: Consult accompanying documents. TYPE B APPLIED PART: Non-isolated applied part suitable for intentional external and internal application to the patient excluding direct cardiac application. [Medical Standard Definition:] Applied part complying with the specified requirements of IEC/ EN/UL 60601-1 Medical Standards to provide protection against electric shock, particularly regarding allowable leakage current. TYPE CF APPLIED PART: Isolated (floating) applied part suitable for intentional external and internal application to the patient including direct cardiac application. “Paddles” outside the box indicate the applied part is defibrillator proof. [Medical Standard Definition:] F-type applied part (floating/isolated) complying with the specified requirements of IEC/EN/UL 60601-1 Medical Standards to provide a higher degree of protection against electric shock than that provided by Type BF applied parts. Interface connector(s) Complies with IPX3 standards (IEC 60529) for protection against water ingress under test conditions; water sprayed at an angle up to 60 degrees on either side of the vertical axis shall have no harmful effects, with device not in actual use. Complies with IPX7 standards (IEC 60529) for protection against water ingress under test conditions; immersion in one meter of water for 30 minutes, with device not in actual use. Operation of this equipment requires the prior coordination with a frequency coordinator designated by the FCC for the Wireless Medical Telemetry Service.
