xvii

CAUTION

When DS-5800N/NX/NX

is used as a central monitor, recall,

graphic trend, tabular trend, and ST measurement function will not

be displayed.

When DS-5700 is used as a central monitor, ST measurement function

will not be displayed

A delay will occur for the communication with the central monitor. The

delay is about 1.5 seconds for the waveform, about 1.5~4.0 seconds for

the numeric data, and about 1.5~2.0 seconds for the alarm.

When waveform and numeric data display is set to OFF, the alarm

generation and tabular/graphic trend will be also set to OFF.

Patient Admit / Discharge

If you start monitoring a new patient without performing a discharge

procedure for the previous patient, new data will be added to the

previous data which will result in inaccuracy.

The setup for the alarm mode and display mode remains stored even

when the power is turned off or when discharging procedure is

performed.

Before monitoring, make sure the current monitoring mode

is suitable for the patient’s condition.

Resuming monitoring will resume the alarm in suspension.

Arrhythmia Analysis

For proper arrhythmia detection and ECG monitoring, verify proper

electrode placement, lead selection, and ECG waveform size. If

necessary, turn ON the AC filter. Improper electrode placement, lead

selection, and ECG waveform size can cause errors in detection.

IC Card

Use only the specified IC card.

Restart the system after reading the setup data from the IC card.

The setup data will become effective after the system is restarted.

Maintenance

Always operate the touch screen with fingers or touch screen pen. Do

not touch with a pen-point or other hard-edged instruments.

Malfunction of the touch screen or damage may result.

Do not clean the touch panel using strong acid

A special coating is applied to the surface of the touch panel. Wipe the

surface with the soft cleaning cloth provided as optional accessory or

with commercially available eyeglass cleaning cloth.

Clean the equipment frequently so stains can be removed easily.

To prevent injury, it is recommended to wear gloves when cleaning the

equipment.

Do not allow liquids such as alcohol or cleaning solution enter the

monitor or connectors.

Do not use organic solvents, thinner, toluene and benzene to avoid

damaging the resin case.

Do not polish the housing with abrasive or chemical cleaner.

When sterilizing the entire room using a spray solution, pay close

attention not to have liquids get into the monitor or connectors.

Use only neutral detergent to clean the housing. Do not use chemical

cloth, scrub brush, abrasive, polishing powder, hot water, volatile solvent

and chemicals (cleanser, thinner, toluene, benzine, benzol, and synthetic

detergent for house and furniture), or sharp-edged tools. The surface

resin coating may be damaged, resulting in discoloration, scratches, and
