Intended UseThe Broadband / Oximetry Accessory is an accessory to select Respironics ow generators which allows recorded data to either be transmitted over a broadband internet connection or stored on an internal SD card for later download.OverviewThe Broadband / Oximetry Accessory supports two functions:1. Broadband - When wirelessly connected to the Broadband Wireless Router or connected to an Ethernet cable with the available Ethernet adapter, this Broadband / Oximetry Accessory can transmit data to EncoreAnywhere using the patient’s existing home broadband connection. See the Setup for Broadband Use section for more information.2. Oximetry - When connected to the appropriate oximeter and sensor, this Broadband / Oximetry Accessory can record patient oxygen saturation and heart rate data, which can be uploaded and viewed in EncoreAnywhere, EncorePro, or EncoreBasic. See the Setup for Oximetry Use section for more information.Package ContentsBroadband / Oximetry AccessorySD CardBroadband Wireless Router(optional)Ethernet Adapter(optional)Broadband Wireless RouterPower Supply(optional)Ethernet Cable(optional)Warnings and CautionsWarnings• If you notice any unexplained changes in the performance of this device, if the device is dropped or mishandled, if water is spilled into the enclosure, or if the enclosure is broken, discontinue use and contact Respironics for assistance.• Repairs and adjustments must be performed by Respironics-authorized service personnel only. Unauthorized service could cause injury, invalidate the warranty, or result in costly damage.• To reduce the risk of bodily injury and damage to the equipment, retain and follow all product safety and operating instructions.• If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.• When attaching the oximeter sensor, be careful to route the wires in a manner that will reduce the possibility of strangulation, discomfort, or the sensors becoming detached.• Use only the Masimo High Performance / Low Power Module and Masimo LNCS Series pulse oximeter sensors. The sensors are manufactured to meet the accuracy specications for the Masimo High Performance / Low Power oximeter. Using other manufacturers’ sensors can result in inaccurate pulse oximeter performance.Broadband / Oximetry AccessoryINSTALLATION AND OPERATION GUIDEEnglish1080873 R02JDH 07/21/20110682 1080873R 0 2
• Do not use a damaged sensor.• Before use, carefully read these instructions and the directions for use provided with the Masimo sensor.Cautions• Remove power from the therapy device by unplugging the power supply cord’s connector from the power inlet on the back of the device before proceeding with the installation instructions.• If the device has been exposed to either very hot or very cold temperatures, allow it to adjust to room temperature before beginning the installation procedure.• Pins of connectors should not be touched. Connections should not be made to these connectors unless ESD precautionary procedures are used. Precautionary procedures include methods to prevent build-up of electrostatic charge (e.g., air conditioning, humidication, conductive oor coverings, non-synthetic clothing), discharging one’s body to the frame of the equipment or system or to earth or a large metal object, and bonding oneself by means of a wrist strap to the equipment or system or to earth.• Ensure that the SD card cover on the therapy device is replaced whenever an accessory is not installed.Important! From time to time, electronic devices can be affected by irregularities in the electrical power supplies and other electrical equipment. To prevent electrical interference that could affect the performance of your medical equipment, always keep accessories (power supplies, battery packs, etc.) and other electrical devices (telephones, radios, etc.) away from your therapy device when used with this accessory.
