closer than 20 cm to a person’s body or head will void the user’s
FCC authority to operate the equipment.
v Transmitter Placement – Do not place transmitter in any position
where it might fall on and potentially harm patient. Do not lift
transmitter or connected monitor by interface cable or power cord, as
they may become disconnected and cause transmitter and/or
monitor to fall on and potentially harm patient.
v Use During Defibrillation – The AlarmView transmitter is not
electrical shock-proof. When attached to a monitor that is attached to
a patient during defibrillation or while an electrosurgical unit is in use,
the transmitter may temporarily lose communication with the monitor
and/or pages may be delayed.
v Transmitter Range – Users are not notified when pagers are out of
range of the transmitter. A range test must be performed (as
indicated in this manual) to determine system boundaries.
v System Redundancy – To provide redundancy, the AlarmView
System should consist of at least two pagers. If one pager is not
receiving pages for any reason, and the alarm is not silenced at the
monitor, the second pager will be notified by a reminder page. If
redundancy is not possible, caregivers should use extra vigilance in
monitoring the patient and use the primary monitoring alarm.
v Site Surveys – Each institution is responsible for surveying existing
equipment and ensuring no interference risk exists when introducing
additional devices.
v Transmission Bands – Each institution is responsible for continued
surveillance of transmission bands in the facility to prevent co-
occupation of bands and cross-band interference.
v Environment – Data Critical Corp does not assume responsibility for
damage caused to the equipment by improper use or installation.
v Home Use – The AlarmView System is not intended for home use.
