Site Preparation Guidelines - Philips M3001A Service Manual

Order the Roll Stand (M3080A Option #A30) or the Wall Mount (M3080A Option #A31) for
a dedicated mounting solution for your recorder. See "Mounting Options for the Local
Recorder" on page 111.
The following recordings are supported:
• Start/Stop real-time
• Start/Extend delayed
• Alarm
• Vital signs
• Trends and stored events
The recordings always show the first three displayed wave forms. The height of the wave
channels is automatically adjusted according to the number of waves displayed:
Wave Channel
Channel 1
Channel 2
Channel 3
Only Roman-8 characters are shown on the recorder. Monitor texts are sent to the local
recorder, printer or Information Center in English for monitors marketed in some East
European and Asiatic countries. Refer to the booklet "Translation Reference for M3/M4
Patient Monitor Texts" for a translation of the English text into the localized language.

Site Preparation Guidelines

Although the Instrument (Monitor and Measurement Server or, where present, Measurement
Server Extension) is primarily a portable Monitor, some site preparation must be done before
using it in certain locations. Additionally, good operating practices are also recommended.
• Check that the operating environment is reasonably free from dust, vibration, corrosive or
explosive gases and is within specified temperature and humidity ranges.
• Position the Instrument so that the display is clearly visible and the controls are easy to
reach.
• The M3046A MUST be grounded during operation. If a three-wire receptacle is not availa-
ble then a hospital electrician must be consulted to ensure that proper grounding is available
on installation. NEVER attempt to use a three-wire to a two-wire adapter with the
M3046A. The Instrument must be grounded whenever it is connected to the mains power
using a 3-pin plug.
