Use only the lead cable specified by Fukuda Denshi when defibrillating.
If used by unspecified lead cable, the equipment may be damaged,
resulting in a safety hazard.
When using the defibrillator, keep away from the electrodes or
medicament applied to the patient chest. If this is not possible, remove
the electrodes or medicament before using it.
If the defibrillator paddles are directly in contact with the electrodes or
medicament, an electrical shock may result from the discharged energy.
When using the defibrillator, do not touch the patient and the metal part
of the equipment or cables. Electric shock may result from the
discharged energy.
![](/img.php?id=2457872&img=bg8.png)
Precautions about the Pacemaker
WARNI N G
Minute ventilation rate-adaptive implantable pacemakers can
occasionally interact with certain cardiac monitoring and diagnostic
equipment, causing the pacemakers to pace at their maximum
programmed rate. The cardiac monitoring and diagnostic equipment
may possibly send wrong information.
If such event occurs, disconnect the cardiac monitoring and diagnostic
equipment, or follow the procedures described in the operation manual
of the pacemaker.
(For more details, contact FUKUDA DENSHI personnel, your
institution’s professionals, or your pacemaker distributors.)
ECG meter may continue to count the pacemaker rate during
occurrences of cardiac arrest or arrhythmias. Do not rely entirely upon
the ECG meter alarms. Keep pacemaker patients under close
surveillance. Check this manual for disclosure of the pacemaker pulse
rejection capability of this equipment.
Precautions about the LX-7230N
WARNI N G
Do not connect cables not authorized by Fukuda Denshi to any I/O
connector. If done so by mistake, the LX-7230N cannot deliver its
maximum performance and may be damaged, resulting in a safety
hazard.
Do not use this equipment with multiple patients simultaneously.
This equipment itself has no alarm function. Do not use it if an alarm
function is necessary. The alarm function with the receiving monitor,
refer to the operation manual of the receiving monitor.
CAUTI O N
Do not pick up and/or swing the LX-7230N pulling/grabbing the probe
(sensor) or cord part. The cable could break or get disconnected from the
LX-7230N. And it may hit people or damage other equipment around.
![](/img.php?id=2457872&img=bg9.png)
Precautions about Waterproof
CAUTI O N
Replace the “Battery Compartment Lid” of the LX-7230N regularly to
keep the performance of waterproof. If not regularly replaced, the quality
of the lid will deteriorate and cannot keep the waterproof performance.
For details about the regular replacement, contact your local Fukuda
Denshi service representative.
The lid may be damaged from high impact. If the LX-7230N is dropped
or is subjected to a high impact, make sure that the lid is not damaged.
However, the SpO probes (sensors) are not waterproof. Do not take a
bath with them, and ensure to be away from liquid.
Do not use the LX-7230N wet. Always wipe the LX-7230N with a soft
cloth and dry it thoroughly before use.
Precautions about ECG
CAUTI O N
When removing electrodes from the patient, remove them carefully and
slowly. Do not apply excessive force to remove them. Otherwise, it may
damage the skin.
There are some cases when the pacemaker pulse cannot be detected
depending on the pacemaker type, pulse voltage, pulse width, electrode
lead type (unipolar, bipolar), electrode placement, or lead method which
causes the pacemaker pulse amplitude to decrease and disables
pacemaker pulse detection.
If signals similar to a pacemaker pulse are present, such as electric
blanket noise or excessive AC frequency noise, these may be
erroneously detected and displayed as a pacemaker pulse. In this case,
check the condition of the electrodes and ECG lead cable to resolve the
cause or turn off the pacemaker detection setting on the receiving
monitor.
![](/img.php?id=2457872&img=bga.png)
Precautions about SpO
WARNI N G
During SpO monitoring, always use the probe (sensor) specified by
Fukuda Denshi. If any other probe (sensor) is used, a high temperature
rise of the probe (sensor) may place the patient in danger of burns in
the worst case.
When the SpO probe (sensor) is in a connector-off condition, the SpO
alarm will not be generated on the receiving monitor. Make sure that the
SpO probe (sensor) is securely connected. If the SpO
waveform/numeric data is not displayed, check the patient’s condition
and pay attention not to miss the connector-off condition.
When measuring the SpO of a patient with high fever or peripheral
circulatory insufficiency, check the probe (sensor) attachment
periodically and change the attachment site. The temperature of the
attachment site will rise 2 to 3 C due to the sensor heat which may
result in compression necrosis and burn injury.
Even a short duration of attachment may inhibit the blood flow and
generate compression necrosis and burn injury.
When securing the probe (sensor) with tape, do not apply the tape too
tight. At the same time, check the blood flow constantly so that
congestion is not generated at the peripheral. When removing the tape,
remove it slowly with care not to damage the patient’s skin.
CAUTI O N
For the following case, accurate measurement may not be possible.
Patient with excessive abnormal hemoglobin (COHb, MetHb)
Patient with the pigment injected to the blood
Patient receiving CPR treatment
Placement of SpO probe (sensor) on limb with a blood-pressure cuff,
arterial catheter, or intravascular line
When measuring at placement position with venous pulse
Patient with body motion
Patient with small pulse
Excessive body motion (patient’s motion)
Excessive light (direct sunlight, fluorescent, light therapy equipment,
surgical light, infrared heat ramp, etc.)
External colorant such as nail polish
Abnormally low or high hemoglobin concentration
Electrosurgery
Influence of electromagnetic waves from other electronics devices
High-intensity radio waves from mobile phones
![](/img.php?id=2457872&img=bgb.png)
Precautions about Output Signal
WARNI N G
Do not use the output signal of the monitor that receives radio wave signal
from the LX-7230N as the trigger signal for IABP, MRI echocardiographic,
or defibrillator for the following reasons.
It may lead to a delay of operating timing due to the delay time of
waveform transmission.
A trigger signal unrelated to the heart rate may be generated due to
the interfusion of spike noise at weak electric field.
Precautions about Accessories and Optional Accessories
WARNI N G
Use only the accessories, such as ECG Lead cable and SpO probe
(sensor), specified by Fukuda Denshi for the LX-7230N. Otherwise, the LX-
7230N cannot deliver its maximum performance and may be damaged,
resulting in a safety hazard.
CAUTI O N

receiver antenna as required.
For management, make sure to follow the precautions below.
The Institution should appoint a person (hereinafter referred to as the
“Overall Manager”) to manage the wireless channels for the whole
Institution.
And when using telemetry, which requires zone location, the Institution
should nominate a person (hereinafter referred to as the “Zone Manager”)
to manage the wireless channels in each zone. However, when using such
telemetry in a local Institution, one person can perform both functions.
The Overall Manager and Zone Manager must be selected from people
who understand the characteristics and functionality of telemetry systems,
and are skilled in operating telemetry.
When installing telemetry, the Overall Manager and the Zone Manager
have to understand the precautions for use of telemetry in advance.
The Overall Manager is responsible for maintenance of wireless channel
and storage and maintenance of telemeter in the overall medical facilities
to give proper instructions to the Zone Manager when using telemetry
needing zone alignment, and to the telemetry user when using telemetry
not-needing zone alignment.
The Overall Manager should create a management log (hereinafter
referred to as the “log”), which contains a list of the management status of
the wireless channels for the whole Institution. When changing a wireless
channel, register it in the log and give proper instructions to the Zone
Manager or to the user.
The Zone Manager assumes responsibility for managing the wireless
channels, storing, and managing telemetry.
The Zone Manager assigns the transmitter to the user, and provides
enough education for use inside the zone.
The telemetry user verifies operation of the transmitter/receiver before
use.
The telemetry user, if using the telemetry in a zone location, follows the
instructions of the Zone Manager for the zone and gives instructions to the
patient if required.
When interference or breakdown occurs in telemetry communication, the
user is required to inform the Zone Manager and the Overall Manager of
the problems. The Zone Manager and Overall Manager are to deal with

With new batteries, the LX-7230N is capable of the following operation.
LX-7230N: approximately 2.5 days
(However, continuous operating time may be shorter than the above
mentioned time depending on the application of the SpO probe (sensor).)
WARNI N G
Unplug the ECG lead cable when the battery compartment lid is
opened. Otherwise, patient leakage current beyond the allowable value
may occur.
Use new "AA" size (“LR06” size) alkaline batteries.
Do not short out the (+) and (-) terminals. It may result in exothermic
heat and fire, the leakage from the batteries may damage the
equipment, or an explosion from the batteries may occur.
Install the batteries with the correct polarity.
Do not use a disassembled or a damaged battery due to drop or shock.
The leakage from the batteries may damage the equipment, or an
explosion from the batteries may occur.
Do not use different types of batteries at the same time. The leakage
from the batteries may damage the equipment, or an explosion from the
batteries may occur.
Remove the exhausted batteries immediately. The leakage from the
batteries may damage the equipment, or an explosion from the batteries
may occur.
If the transmitter is not in use for a long period of time, remove the
batteries and store the equipment in an appropriate place. If the
batteries are left in the transmitter for a long period of time, the leakage
from the batteries may damage the equipment or an explosion from the
batteries may occur.
Make sure to replace the two batteries simultaneously. If new and used
batteries are mixed, a leakage from the batteries may damage the
equipment or an explosion from the batteries may occur.
CAUTI O N
Use only alkaline batteries. Other batteries will shorten the continuous
operating time.
Once the power switch is on the OFF position, then open the battery
compartment lid.
Do not replace the batteries with wet hands.

Attaching the Electrodes
CAUTI O N
Always use the same type of electrodes. If different types of
electrodes are used at the same time, the difference between
the polarization potential from each electrode may interfere with
monitoring.
Do not reuse the disposable electrodes. It is intended for single
patient use only.
Clean the electrode sites with alcohol wipes
or other skin preparation. If necessary, shave
the electrode sites to remove excessive hair.
Peel off the disposable electrode.
Pay attention not to touch the electrode gel.
Attach the lead cable end to the electrode
(convex part).
Turn right and l
eft to verify that it is securely
attached.
![](/img.php?id=2457872&img=bg21.png)
Connecting the ECG Lead Cable to the LX-7230N
Insert the ECG lead cable firmly into the ECG/RESP input connector matching
the transmitter’s connector guide and the direction of the notched part on the
connector.
![](/img.php?id=2457872&img=bg22.png)
CAUTI O N
There are some cases when pacemaker pulse cannot be detected
depending on the pacemaker type, pulse voltage, pulse width, electrode
lead type (unipolar, bipolar), electrode placement, or lead method which
causes the pacemaker pulse amplitude to decrease and disables
pacemaker pulse detection.
If signals similar to a pacemaker pulse are present, such as electric
blanket noise or excessive AC frequency noise, these may be
erroneously detected and displayed as a pacemaker pulse. In this case,
check the condition of the electrodes and ECG lead cable to resolve the
cause or turn off the pacemaker detection setting on the receiving
monitor.
Time constant of this equipment is shorter than Fukuda Denshi
monitors (direct ECG connection). Therefore, there is a difference in the
ST measurement value between them. Pay attention to the difference
when monitoring a patient from a transmitter or a monitor.
When an electrode is attached on the same location for a long time,
some patients may develop skin irritation. Check the patient’s skin
condition periodically and change the electrode position as required.
The indication for continuous use of an electrode is about one day.
Replace the electrode if the skin contact gets loosen due to perspiring,
etc.
Make sure to use new disposable electrodes. Otherwise, the waveform
quality may become poor and it may fail to perform correct monitoring.
When “Check Electrode” message is displayed on the screen of the
receiving monitor or the LCD of this equipment, check the condition of
the electrodes and ECG lead cable to resolve the cause.
When removing electrodes from the patient, remove them carefully and
slowly. Do not apply excessive force to remove them. Otherwise, it may
damage the skin.
It may not perform a correct measurement due to the attached position
of the electrodes. Attach the electrodes on the patient referring to page
10 and 11 and make sure that the correct waveform is measured on the
LCD.

5. Respiration Monitoring
Follow the preparation of “4.ECG Monitoring” to allow the respiration
monitoring.
This respiration monitoring is performed with impedance method.
The ECG electrodes are also used for detecting the respiration. Each lead
cable specifies the electrodes to detect the respiration. For 3-electrode and 5-
electrode (chest) lead cable, the electrodes to detect the respiration are fixed
as follows. Even if lead method is switched, they are no changes.
Lead Cable Color of Electrode
3-electrode White (RA) and Red (LL)
4-electrode White (RA) and Red (LL)
5-electrode (Chest) White (RA) and Red (LL)
WARNI N G
Minute ventilation rate-adaptive implantable pacemakers can occasionally
interact with certain cardiac monitoring and diagnostic equipment, causing
the pacemakers to pace at their maximum programmed rate. The cardiac
monitoring and diagnostic equipment may possibly send wrong
information.
If such event occurs, please disconnect the cardiac monitoring and
diagnostic equipment, or follow the procedures described in the operation
manual of the pacemaker.
(For more details, contact FUKUDA DENSHI personnel, your institution’s
professionals, or your pacemaker distributors.)
CAUTI O N
Even if the electrodes are attached on the proper positions for ECG
monitoring, it may not be always the proper ones for respiration
monitoring as well.
When a defibrillator is used during respiration monitoring, a large offset
voltage will be placed on the ECG electrodes, which may cause
interruption of monitoring for a few seconds.

6. SpO
2
Monitoring
When the transmitter is used without the ECG lead cable, it will measure only
SpO .
WARNI N G
When the SpO probe (sensor) is in a connector-off condition, the SpO
alarm will not be generated on the receiving monitor. Make sure that the
SpO probe (sensor) is securely connected. If the SpO waveform/numeric
data is not displayed, check the patient’s condition and pay attention not to
miss the connector-off condition.
CAUTI O N
When using the transmitter with only the SpO sensor cable, ECG and
respiration measurements on the receiving monitor shall be turned off to
prevent an erroneous alarm.
The pulse wave and level meter are normalized for SpO measurement.
It does not indicate perfused blood volume. Check proper probe
attachment by observing the pulse wave.

Do not pick up the equipment pulling the sensor or cable part. It may get
disconnected from the equipment and the equipment may be dropped.
A message is displayed when the SpO sensor is disconnected from the
equipment.
A message is displayed when the equipment detects that the SpO
sensor is disconnected from the patient. Properly attach the SpO
sensor to the patient.
Do not reuse the single-use SpO sensor. It may cause incorrect
measurements.
Read through the instruction of the SpO sensor as well.
CAUTI O N
The accuracy of SpO measurement may be influenced by abnormal
hemoglobin, such as carbon monoxide hemoglobin (COHb) and
methemoglobin (MetHb). It may be also affected by cardiogreen or
intravascular dyes.
In addition, the following case may affect the accuracy of SpO and pulse
rate measurement.
Outside light (direct sunlight, fluorescent, light therapy equipment,
surgical light, infrared heat ramp, etc.)
Hypoperfusion
Excessive body motion (patient’s motion)

Applying the OxiMax MAX-I sensor
This Nellcor adhesive sensor, model MAX-I, is indicated for continuous
noninvasive arterial oxygen saturation and pulse rate monitoring and can be
reused on the same patient as long as the adhesive tape attaches without
slippage.
1. Remove the plastic backing from the MAX-I and locate the two transparent
windows on the adhesive side. Windows cover optical components. Note
the corresponding alignment marks (a) on the non-adhesive side and the
dashed line (b) midway between the marks (Figure (1)).
The big toe is the preferred MAX-I location. Alternatively, apply the sensor
to another digit of similar size, for example, the thumb.
NOTE
When selecting the sensor site, priority should be given to an extremity free
of an arterial catheter, blood pressure cuff, or intravascular infusion line.
2. Orient the MAX-I so that the window next to the cable is aligned on the
bottom of the big toe as shown. The cable should extend towards the heel
(Figure (2)).
3. Wrap the MAX-I firmly, but not too tightly around the toe. Windows must
oppose each other for correct measurement (Figure (3)).
4. Wrap any excess tape loosely around the toe. Use additional tape
provided to secure the cable across the bottom of the foot, loosely enough
to maintain good circulation (Figure (4)).
5. Connect the MAX-I into the LX-7230N. Verify proper operation as
described in the operation manual.

NOTE
If the sensor does not track the pulse reliably, it may be incorrectly
positioned – or the sensor site may be too thick, thin, or deeply pigmented,
or otherwise deeply colored (for example, as a result of externally applied
coloring such as nail polish, dye, or pigmented cream) to permit appropriate
light transmission. If any of these situations occurs, reposition the sensor or
choose an alternate Nellcor sensor to use on a different site.

2. Enclosed adhesive “dots” are provided for reapplication. Place a
transparent dot over each window as shown, and then remove the
protective paper that covers each dot (Figure (5)). The sensor is now ready
to be reapplied to the same patient. For the reapplication, do not remove
the previous adhesive dot, but place the enclosed adhesive dot over it.
CAUTI O N
Precautions for Use of adhesive sensor, MAX-I
Do not reuse the sensor on other patients. This is a sterilized product and it
is intended for single patient use only.
Circulation distal on the sensor site should be checked routinely. The site
must be inspected every 8 hours to ensure adhesion, skin integrity, and
correct optical alignment. If skin integrity changes, move the sensor to
another site
Do not use the sensor on patients who exhibit allergic reactions to the
adhesive tape.
Failure to apply the sensor properly may cause incorrect measurements.
While the sensor is designed to reduce the effects of ambient light,
excessive light may cause inaccurate measurements. In such cases, cover
the sensor with an opaque material.
If the sensor is wrapped too tightly or supplemental tape is applied, venous
pulsations may lead to inaccurate saturation measurements.
Excessive motion may compromise performance. In such cases, try to keep
the patient still, or change the sensor site to one with less motion.
Intravascular dyes or externally applied coloring such as nail polish, dye, or
pigmented cream may lead to inaccurate measurements.
Do not pull the sensor cable to remove the sensor from the equipment.
In the event of damage to the sterile packaging, do NOT use. Make sure to
check whether the packaging and product is cracked or damaged before
use. If there is any damage.
Do not immerse in water or cleaning solutions. Do not resterilize.

Precautions for Use of adhesive sensor, MAX-N
Do not reuse the sensor on other patients. This is a sterilized product and it
is intended for single patient use only.
Circulation distal on the sensor site should be checked routinely. The site
must be inspected every 8 hours to ensure adhesion, skin integrity, and
correct optical alignment. If skin integrity changes, move the sensor to
another site.
Do not use the sensor on patients who exhibit allergic reactions to the
adhesive tape.
Failure to apply the sensor properly may cause incorrect measurements.
While the sensor is designed to reduce the effects of ambient light,
excessive light may cause inaccurate measurements. In such cases, cover
the sensor with an opaque material.
If the sensor is wrapped too tightly or supplemental tape is applied, venous
pulsations may lead to inaccurate saturation measurements.
Excessive motion may compromise performance. In such cases, try to keep
the patient still, or change the sensor site to one with less motion.
Intravascular dyes or externally applied coloring such as nail polish, dye, or
pigmented cream may lead to inaccurate measurements.
Do not pull the sensor cable to remove the sensor from the equipment.
In the event of damage to the sterile packaging, do NOT use. Make sure to
check whether the packaging and product is cracked or damaged before
use. If there is any damage.
Do not immerse in water or cleaning solutions. Do not resterilize.
For additional warnings, cautions or contraindications when using sensors
with the LX-7230N, refer to each Nellcor SpO sensor instruction manual.

Applying the OXIMAX MAX-FAST sensor
This is an adhesive sensor, model MAX-FAST, for continuous noninvasive
arterial oxygen saturation and pulse rate monitoring and can be reused on the
same patient as long as the adhesive tape attaches without slippage.
1. Clean the sensor site with an alcohol wipe to remove skin oils. See
illustration for the recommended site. (Figure (1))
(1)
2. Remove the white paper backing to expose the first of three adhesive
pads (Figure (2)). The OXIMAX MAX-FAST sensor is now ready to be
applied on the patient.
(2)
NOTE
There are three adhesive pads attached to the sensor, each with a pull-tab
for removal. When repositioning the sensor on the same patient, first
expose the new adhesive pad by grasping the tab and peeling off the old
adhesive pad. The sensor is now ready to be reapplied to the patient.
3. Place the sensor onto a flat, hairless portion of the patient’s forehead just
above the left or right eyebrow. If the patient is lying on their side, place
the sensor above the eye on the side of the patient’s head not in contact
with the bed. Press the MAX-FAST sensor firmly in place for 10 seconds,
ensuring that the entire surface area of the adhesive pad makes contact
with the skin (Figure (3)).
(3)
![](/img.php?id=2457872&img=bg34.png)
4. If desired, the sensor cable can be secured to the patient’s clothing or
other material by using the clip located on the cable. To open, pinch the
sides of the clip; release to close (Figure (4)).
(4)
5. Connect the OXIMAX MAX-FAST oximetry sensor into the LX-7230N.
Verify proper operation as described in the operation manual.
NOTE
If the sensor does not track the pulse reliably, it may be incorrectly
positioned - or the sensor site may be excessively wrinkled, or too deeply
pigmented or otherwise deeply colored (for example, as a result of
externally applied coloring such as dye or pigmented cream) to permit
appropriate light transmission. If any of these situations occurs, reposition
the sensor in a different location or choose an alternate Nellcor sensor to
use on a different site.

Precautions for Use of adhesive sensors, MAX-FAST
Do not reuse the sensor on other patients. This is a sterilized product and it
is intended for single patient use only.
Circulation distal on the sensor site should be checked routinely. The site
must be inspected every 12 hours to ensure adhesion, skin integrity, and
correct position. Because individual skin condition affects the ability of the
skin to tolerate sensor placement, it may be necessary to change the sensor
site more frequently with some patients.
Do not use the OXIMAX MAX-FAST sensor on patients who exhibit allergic
reactions to the adhesive pad; for patients who perspire profusely; or under
conditions where the patient is in the Trendelenburg position (head lower
than the heart).
Failure to apply the sensor properly may cause incorrect measurements.
While the sensor is designed to reduce the effects of ambient light,
excessive light may cause inaccurate measurements. In such cases, cover
the sensor with an opaque material.
Do not use tape with the sensor. Use of additional tape or other types of
adhesives may cause skin damage.
Applying the headband too tightly can lead to inaccurate saturation
measurements, or possibly to temporary pressure marks from sensor.
Excessive motion may compromise performance. In such cases, try to keep
the patient still, or change the sensor site to one with less motion.
For patients in a prone position, venous pooling and/or pulsation may cause
inaccurate SpO readings. Use of the headband is advised.
Do not pull the sensor cable to remove the sensor from the equipment.
In the event of damage to the sterile packaging, do NOT use. Make sure to
check whether the packaging and product is cracked or damaged before
use. If there is any damage.

![](/img.php?id=2457872&img=bg4a.png)
Changing the Time Constant
The default setting of the time constant is “0.4 seconds”.
If a stable monitoring is difficult with excessive change in the baseline due to
excessive body motion of the patient or an interference noise, such as AC
frequency, by changing the time constant to “0.1 second” the monitoring may
become relatively stable.
For details of the setting change, contact your local Fukuda Denshi service
representative.
CAUTI O N
When changing the time constant to “0.1 seconds”, the lower frequency
characteristic becomes 1.6Hz ±25%. This setup does not meet IEC
60601-2-27 standard. It may lead to a change in the ECG waveform and
ST measurement value may be especially affected. Fukuda Denshi
recommends “0.4 seconds” setting in normal use.
The LCD screen in normal use does not indicate the selection of time
constant. Make sure to take measures, such as marking on the LX-
7230N, to distinguish whether the selection of time constant is changed.
![](/img.php?id=2457872&img=bg4b.png)
Changing the Detection Sensitivity of the Pacemaker Pulse
The default setting of pacemaker pulse detection sensitivity is “Mid”.
The “Mid” setting can detect and reject the following pacemaker pulse
specified in ANSI/AAMI EC13 standard.
Detection/ Rejection of Pacemaker Pulse:
a) Pacemaker Pulse without Over/Undershoot:
Capable to reject pulses of pulse width 0.1 to 2ms,
amplitude ±2 to ±700mV
b) Pacemaker Pulse with Over/Undershoot:
Rejection is not possible.
Fukuda Denshi recommends the “Mid” setting in normal use.
There may be some cases when the pacemaker pulse cannot be detected
depending on the pacemaker type, pulse voltage, pulse width, electrode lead
type (unipolar, bipolar). In this case, change the lead or the position of the
electrodes to be able to detect the pacemaker pulse.
Nonetheless, if the detection is still undetectable, change the setting to “High”
in order to increase the detection sensitivity. So that smaller pacemaker pulse
can be detected. However, the “High” setting may lead to erroneous detection
due to interference noise, such as AC frequency.
If erroneous detections occur due to interference noise, such as AC frequency,
turn OFF the setting of the pacemaker pulse detection in the receiving monitor.
If erroneous detections occur due to interference noise, such as AC frequency,
while monitoring a patient with a pacemaker, and the setting of the pacemaker
pulse detection cannot be turned OFF, replace the electrodes or change the
lead to remove the interference noise, such as AC frequency.
Nonetheless, if erroneous detections still occur, change the setting to “Low” in
order to decrease the detection sensitivity. It makes the LX-7230N less likely to
be interfered by the noise, such as AC frequency.
The “Low” setting decreases the detection sensitivity. Therefore, it cannot
detect the pacemaker pulse specified in ANSI/AAMI EC13 standard.
For details of the setting change, contact your local Fukuda Denshi service
representative.
CAUTI O N
The LCD screen in normal use does not indicate the setting status of the
pacemaker pulse detection. Make sure to take measures, such as marking
on the LX-7230N, to distinguish whether the setting of the pacemaker
pulse detection is changed.
![](/img.php?id=2457872&img=bg4c.png)
Changing the Respiration Detection Signal ON/OFF
The default setting of the respiration detection signal is “ON”.
The respiration waveform can be detected when the setting of the respiration
detection signal is turned “ON”.
WARNI N G
If the LX-7230N is used with minute ventilation rate-adaptive implantable
pacemaker, the respiration detection signal may cause the pacemaker to
pace at its maximum programmed rate. If such event occurs, change the
setting to “OFF” to prevent an occurrence of erroneous pacing rate.
For details of the setting change, contact your local Fukuda Denshi service
representative.
CAUTI O N
The respiration waveform cannot be measured if the setting of the
respiration detection signal is turned “OFF”.
Make sure to turn OFF the respiration measurement function on the
receiving monitor to prevent an erroneous detection of the respiration
alarm (on the receiving monitor side).
The LCD screen in normal use does not indicate the setting status of the
respiration detection signal ON/OFF. Make sure to take measures, such
as marking on the LX-7230N, to distinguish whether the setting of the
respiration detection signal ON/OFF is changed.
Changing the LCD Contrast
The LCD display contrast of the LX-7230N can be changed in 8 steps.
For details of the setting change, contact your local Fukuda Denshi service
representative.

10. Changing the Transmitter Channel and Group ID
Changing the Transmitter Channel
The LX-7230N is a transmitter of PLL synthesizer type, and its transmitter
channel can be programmed. It can be set up with an arbitrary channel among
the channels assigned by the Telemetry Laws (according to each country).
For details of the setting change, contact your local Fukuda Denshi service
representative.
WARNI N G
If the transmitter channel is changed, follow the instruction by the
person in charge of the radio telemetry channel in your facility.
Mismanagement may result in a serious accident, such as interference
and mixing up patients.
Replace promptly the new channel label if the transmitter channel has
been changed.
Changing the Group ID
The LX-7230N transmits its group ID, which it belongs to, to prevent
interference with neighboring hospital's transmitter.
The receiving monitor checks whether the incoming group ID is the same as
the programmed one that the receiving monitor has. There are 64 group codes
available. The default setting is “00”.
The transmitter group ID can be changed if there is interference with a
neighboring hospital's transmitter.
For details of the setting change, contact your local Fukuda Denshi service
representative.
CAUTI O N
Possible causes of interference other than radio telemetry from neighboring
hospital's transmitter, are the proximity of cell phone, amateur radio station,
radio taxi, and illegal citizens band, which may be a cause of interference.
In such a case, the situation should be carefully observed to find the cause
of interference.

Functional Testers and Patient Simulator for SpO measurement
Some models of commercially available bench top functional testers and
patient simulators can be used to verify the proper functionality of pulse
oximeter sensors, cables and pulse oximeters. See the operator’s manual
of the individual testing device for the procedure which is specific to the
model of tester being used.
While such devices may be useful for verifying that the pulse oximeter
sensor, cabling, and pulse oximeter are functional, they are incapable of
providing the data required to properly evaluate the accuracy of a system's
SpO measurements.
Fully evaluating the accuracy of the SpO measurements requires, at a
minimum, accommodating the wavelength characteristics of the sensor
and reproducing the complex optical interaction of the sensor and the
patient’s tissue. These capabilities are beyond the scope of known bench
top testers.
SpO measurement accuracy can only be evaluated in vivo by comparing
pulse oximeter readings with values traceable to SaO measurements
![](/img.php?id=2457872&img=bg61.png)
obtained from simultaneously sampled arterial blood using a laboratory
Co-oximeter.
Many functional testers and patient simulators have been designed to
interface with the pulse oximeter's expected calibration curves and may be
suitable for use with pulse oximeters and/or sensors. Not all such devices,
however, are adapted for use with the calibration system. While this will
not affect use of the simulator for verifying system functionality, displayed
SpO measurement values may differ from the setting of the test device.
For a properly functioning pulse oximeter, this difference will be
reproducible over time and from pulse oximeter to pulse oximeter within
the performance specifications of the test device.
