 When using the defibrillator, do not touch the patient and the metal part
of the device or cables. Electric shock may result from the discharged
energy.
Precautions about the Pacemaker
WARNING
 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.)
Reference
“Minute Ventilation Rate-Adaptive Pacemakers”
FDA alerts health professionals that minute ventilation rate-adaptive
implantable pacemakers can occasionally interact with certain cardiac
monitoring and diagnostic equipment, causing pacemakers to pace at their
maximum programmed rate.
[October 14, 1998 (Letter: www .fda.gov/cdrh/safety.html) – FDA]
 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 instrument.
Precautions about the LX-7120
WARNING
 Do not connect cables not authorized by Fukuda Denshi to any I/O
connector. If done so by mistake, the LX-7120 cannot deliver its
maximum performance and may be damaged, resulting in a safety
hazard.
 Do not use this device with multiple patients simultaneously.
CAUTION
Do not pick up and/or swing the LX-7120 pulling/grabbing the cord part.
The cable could break or get disconnected from the LX-7120. And it may
hit people or damage other equipment around.
vi
Precautions about Waterproof
CAUTION

and dry it thoroughly before use.
Precautions about ECG
CAUTION
 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.
Precautions about Output Signal
WARNING
Do not use the output signal of the monitor that receives radio wave signal
from the LX-7120 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.
vii
Precautions about Accessories and Optional Accessories
WARNING
Use only the accessories, such as ECG Lead cable, specified by Fukuda
Denshi for the LX-7120. Otherwise, the LX-7120 cannot deliver its

CAUTION
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.
CAUTION
Do not reuse the disposable electrodes. It is intended for single patent 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.

4. ECG Monitoring
CAUTION
 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 device 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 device, 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.

WARNING
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.)

■ 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.
CAUTION
 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 LX7120, to distinguish whether the selection of time constant is changed.
31
8. Other Setting Items
■ 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-7120 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.
CAUTION
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-7120, to distinguish whether the setting of the pacemaker pulse
detection is changed.
32
8. Other Setting Items
■ 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”.
WARNING
If the LX-7120 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.
CAUTION
 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-7120, 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-7120 can be changed in 8 steps.

9. Changing the Transmitter Channel and Group ID
■ Changing the Transmitter Channel
The LX-7120 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.
WARNING
 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-7120 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.
CAUTION
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.

performed as follows.
CAUTION
Do not sterilize the LX-7120 and ECG lead cable in any manners, such as
radioactive rays, steam, or ethylene oxide.
■ Cleaning
Clean the LX-7120 using a squeezed gauze or an absorbent cotton cloth
dampened with alcohol or a neutral cleanser.
CAUTION
 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 any chemical solution to enter the inside of LX-7120 or
connectors.
 The LX-7120 cannot be sterilized.
 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.
 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, 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
other problems.
■ Disinfection
If there is a possibility of being infected, clean the LX-7120 using a squeezed
gauze or an absorbent cotton cloth dampened with alcohol or invert soap.
CAUTION

12. Maintenance and Inspection
This section explains the daily checks and periodic checks of the LX-7120.
To ensure safety, reliability, and high performance, a “Daily Check” and
“Periodic Check” must be performed. We are not liable for any accident arising
from lack of maintenance.
CAUTION
 Do not open the housing or attempt service. The service should be done
by Fukuda Denshi or Fukuda Denshi’s representative.
 Do not allow excessive moisture or cleaning agents into the connectors
or inside the equipment.
■ Daily Check
Perform daily checks using the “Daily Check List” on the next page.
■ Periodic Check
Periodic check of medical electronic equipment is mandatory to prevent
failures and accidents and to ensure safety and reliability.
Periodic maintenance may be performed by the medical institution or by a third
party by concluding a “Maintenance Contract”.
For more details, contact your local Fukuda Denshi service representative.
■ Periodic Replacement Parts
The “Battery Compartment Lid (Waterproof)” is the only periodic
replacement part.
To ensure the reliability of waterproof (IPX8) performance of the LX-7120,
replace it once a year.
You may be able to keep using the LX-7120 without periodic replacement of
the lid. However, as it gets older, the reliability of water resistance (IPX8)
performance will not be ensured.
When replacing the lid, contact your local Fukuda Denshi service
representative.
CAUTION
The periodic replacement parts must be replaced at specified period.
