4.1 Power Connections
Connect the AC power cords of the Surgeon Console, Patient Cart, and Vision Cart to wall
outlets. (To support continued use of the da Vinci System in case of a site power failure, use
wall outlets [often red] supported by backup power.) Ensure adequate power is available at
each wall outlet according to the table below:
Note: Before first use, connect the Patient Cart to a wall outlet for at least 14 hours to
allow the backup battery to fully charge.
Note: The Patient Cart should remain plugged in when not in use to ensure that the
backup battery stays fully charged.
Note: Cooling fans on the Patient Cart and the Core (Vision Cart) run continually when
either is plugged into AC. This is part of normal operation.
Note: The power cord plug of each cart provides isolation from the supply mains.
Position equipment so that the power cord plugs can be accessed to isolate mains power
from the system.
CAUTION: Do not use an extension cord with any of the system components.
