Introduction
This manual is intended to help you
understand and use your Medtronic® Model
2490A CareLink Monitor.
If you have any questions not answered by
this manual, or if you have any problems with
your CareLink Monitor, talk to your doctor.
Your doctor knows your medical history and
can give you the help you need.
When to use your
CareLink Monitor
The CareLink Monitor is an electronic device
that provides an easy way for your doctor to
obtain information about your implanted
device. The CareLink Monitor gathers this
information to allow your doctor to manage
your care.
Your CareLink Monitor is intended specifically
for your use only. It will not work with other
implanted devices and should only be used by
you as directed by your doctor. Unauthorized
use by others with implanted devices could
interrupt the prescribed operation of their
device.
When not to use your
CareLink Monitor
Warning: If you are feeling ill and you think
you might need to go to the hospital, seek
medical attention immediately. If there is an
emergency, call 911 or follow other
instructions from your doctor. Do not use your

CareLink Monitor to send your medical
information to your doctor unless you have
already contacted your doctor and your doctor
has requested that you use your CareLink
Monitor.
Warning: To ensure the safe operation of
your implanted device, only use the CareLink
Monitor as described in this manual and at the
times prescribed by your doctor. If you miss a
scheduled time to send data, consult with your
doctor.
Warning: If you feel ill after positioning the
antenna, remove the antenna from over your
implanted device and turn "off" your CareLink
Monitor. If you still feel ill, contact your doctor.
Warning: Your CareLink Monitor’s antenna
contains a strong magnet; however, the
monitor has been designed for use with your
implanted device. To ensure proper function of
your implanted device when not using the
monitor, avoid other strong magnets, such as
those used in some stereo speakers, bingo
wands, extractor wands, magnetic badges,
and magnetic therapy products.
Warning: To ensure proper operation of your
implanted device, always turn on the CareLink
Monitor before positioning the antenna. Follow
the instructions in this manual about
positioning the antenna over your implanted
device.

described in “Using your CareLink Monitor” on
page 12. Check the batteries as described in
“Battery status” on page 17. If you need
further assistance, contact your clinic.
Precautions
■
■
■
■
Do not use a cellular phone while the
antenna is positioned over your implanted
device.
If possible, avoid using the telephone
while using your CareLink Monitor. Your
phone line will be "busy" while your
CareLink Monitor is sending data.
Note: In the case of an emergency, you
can use your phone to call for help. If you
have an emergency and the CareLink
Monitor is "on" (power status light is lit),
press the Power button to turn the
CareLink Monitor "off" (power status light
is not lit) and to ensure your phone line is
available.
You can use your CareLink Monitor away
from your home. However, you will need to
keep the following requirements in mind:
– If you are using a telephone line that
requires you to dial a number (usually
“9”) to make an outside call, make sure
that the telephone line settings are
correct. See “Verifying the telephone
line settings” on page 10.
Your CareLink Monitor is designed for use
in the continental United States, Alaska
and Hawaii.

or media containing a magnet strip.
Do not place your CareLink Monitor
anywhere it could get wet.
– Caution: Do not get your CareLink
Monitor wet. Water can damage your
CareLink Monitor. If your CareLink
Monitor is exposed to water, contact
your clinic for instructions.
Setting up your
CareLink Monitor
Before you use your CareLink Monitor you will
need to:
1. Install four C size batteries.
2. Verify the telephone line settings.
3. Connect your CareLink Monitor to a
telephone jack.
You may connect a telephone to your
CareLink Monitor, but the telephone is not
required for your CareLink Monitor to
work properly. You may choose to connect
your monitor to your telephone if you intend to
leave your CareLink Monitor set up
continually.

Verifying the telephone line settings
Before using your CareLink Monitor, verify
that the telephone line settings are
appropriate. There are two telephone line
settings on the CareLink Monitor. See
Figure 5.
Figure 5 Location of telephone line settings
NONE-7-8-9 determines if a number needs to
be dialed to reach an outside telephone line.
There are four positions for the switch. The
switch will click into position above each
setting as it is moved from side to side.
TONE-PULSE selects a tone or pulse
telephone line. There are two positions for the
switch. The switch will click into position above
each setting as it is moved from side to side.
Telephone line settings may be selected when
your CareLink Monitor is "on" or "off."
Select the settings that are appropriate for the
telephone line you will be using. None is the
most common setting for home use. If you are
staying in a hotel, you may have to set the
switch to "7", "8" or “9” to get an outside line.
See Figure 6. If you have questions about the
phone line, contact your local phone carrier.

When you hear your CareLink Monitor
dialing, remove the antenna from your
implanted device. Place the antenna back
in its pouch.
Note: Your CareLink Monitor will emit
high-pitched tones when dialing the preprogrammed number.
The three green sending status lights start
blinking when your CareLink Monitor is
sending data. This process typically takes
less than 3 minutes but may take up to 60
minutes.
When the CareLink Monitor is sending
data, your telephone line is not available
to make or receive calls. In case of
emergency, press the Power button to turn
"off" the monitor and to ensure your phone
line is available for incoming and outgoing
calls.
When the green sending status lights start
blinking, you can get up and leave, but you
should not use the telephone unless there
is an emergency.
When your CareLink Monitor is done
sending information, the right sending
status light remains on and you hear two
beeps.
Your CareLink Monitor shuts off
automatically after two minutes or you
may press the Power button. You can then
use the telephone to make or receive any
calls. The CareLink Monitor may be put
away for storage.

The orange status lights should not be lit when
you are using your CareLink Monitor. If any of
these status lights remain on or you hear short
beeps after pressing the Power button, try the

Telephone line status
If your CareLink Monitor beeps and the
telephone line status blinks:
■ If the call was interrupted due to Call
Waiting, the monitor automatically redials
and sends your device information. If your
CareLink Monitor does not begin
redialing, check that the telephone
connections are intact.
■ Make sure that the telephone line settings
are correct. See Figure 6. If you need help
determining the type of telephone line,
contact your local phone carrier.
■ Test the telephone line to make sure it is
working by making an outside call using
the telephone connected to your CareLink
Monitor. If the telephone connected to
your CareLink Monitor is not working, try
another telephone that is connected to a
different telephone jack.
■ Telephone line settings may be selected
when your CareLink Monitor is "on" or
"off."
Caring for your
CareLink Monitor
Avoid dropping your CareLink Monitor on a
hard surface. Contact your clinic if your
CareLink Monitor has been dropped.
You can clean the outside with a clean, dry
cloth.
