TELEMETRY TRANSMITTER (96281) OPERATIONS MANUAL 4-2
• Clean the transmitter case with the battery door closed.
• Inspect and check the transmitter for damage prior to every procedure.
• Use either new alkaline batteries or fully-charged 2400 mAH NiMH rechargeable batteries
for each and every new procedure.
• Clean the transmitter after each use. Refer to the
Telemetry Transmitter (96281-A,
96281-B, 96281-C) Service Manual
(P/N 070-2408-xx), located on the Telemetry
Service (9628X)
CD (P/N 084-2202-xx) for preventive maintenance instructions.
• Make sure that service on the transmitter is performed by authorized Spacelabs
Healthcare service personnel when repairs are necessary or at suitable intervals.
Notes:
The description that follows of transmitter operation is valid only for two AA 1.5-volt alkaline or
two AA-
equivalent 2400 mAH NiMH rechargeable batteries and does not apply to any other
type of battery.
• When a low battery condition is detected, the orange battery status indicator illuminates on
the front cover of all three transmitter models: 96281-A, 96281-B, 96281-C. In addition, a
red battery symbol appears in the display of the 96281-B and 96281-C transmitters.
• Used batteries must be properly disposed of or recycled according to national and/or local
regulation.
• Refer to the product service manual for more details.
Host Monitors
The 96281 telemetry transmitter is compatible with the Ultraview SL 3800-38/-39 central monitor and
the Ultraview and Ultraview SL line of bedside monitors. For information on configuring battery alarm
status, enabling and adjusting alarms, assigning telemetry channels, status or interference messages,
refer to the operations and service manuals for the specific monitor in use with the telemetry
transmitter devices.
If you use Ultraview SL 3800-38 or 3800-39 central monitor,
• refer to the Ultraview SL Operations Manual (P/N 070-1150-xx), 91387 Service Manual (P/N
070-1159-xx), and to the Clinical Parameters Operations Manual (P/N 070-2113-xx) for more
information.
Telemetry Receiver Module
The telemetry transmitters are compatible with the 90478 Digital Telemetry System Receiver and
Receiver Housing (90479-A, 90479-B, 90479-C). The receiver housing is related to the central
monitor. The receiver module can go in the housing or in a bedside monitor.
Refer to Clinical Parameters Operations Manual (P/N 070-2113-xx) located on the Patient Monitoring
Operations Documents CD (P/N 084-1101-xx) and to the Spacelabs Healthcare Service CD (P/N
070-0700-xx) for detailed information relating to the 90478 and 90479 digital telemetry systems.
