Warnings
•
This device is not a device intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions, or in
the cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease, in man or other animals.
•
The AC adapter and power cord, availble from Ricoh - EWS, is for use with this device only.
Do not use the AC adapter with other equipment. Doing so may result in fire, electric shock, or
injury.
•
Do not use this device with any power voltage other than the indicated voltage because it may
cause fire or shock.
•
Pull out the power plug immediately if you sense anything unusual such as smoke or an abnormal odor.
•
Unless you are a service representative, do not attempt to service this device.
•
If you touch the metal connector contacts while the cable plug is still connected to the wall outlet after the main unit is turned off, an electric hazard or short may occur, resulting in fire.
•
Before connecting the cable to the wall outlet, be sure to check that the cable connector is not
broken and that the connector is not bent or dirty.
•
Do not pull the plug from the wall by the cord.
Caution
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.

Tablet Orientation
•
•
Please do not operate the tablet face-down into your lap.
Please do not operate the tablet upside-down in your lap.
Caution
Failure to follow these safety instructions could result in
exposure to RF emissions that exceed federal standards.
Battery Safety
The rechargeable battery in your eQuill Clipboard should be replaced only by an
authorized service provider. Charge the battery only in temperatures that range from
32° to 95° Fahrenheit (0° to 35° Celsius).
Do not use the device while it is being charged.
Caution
Failure to follow these safety instructions could result in fire,
electric shock, or other injury or damage.
eQuillTM User’s Guide
Chapter 1
Turn Off Wireless Service When Flying
To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems, U.S. Federal Aviation
Administration regulations require you to have permission from a crew member to use
your device’s wireless service. Your eQuill Clipboard uses both Wi-Fi and cellular
wireless signals, so while on an aircraft you should not turn your wireless service on
unless a crew member has given permission for passengers to use both Wi-Fi and
cellular devices. If you have your wireless service turned off, you can use your eQuill
Clipboard for reading, once a crew member has given permission for passengers to
use electronic devices.
Caution
Failure to follow these safety instructions could interfere with
the communication between the airplane and the air traffic
controller. follow all onboard instructions.
Be Careful Around Other Electronic Devices
The eQuill Clipboard generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency (RF) energy,
and if not used in accordance with its instructions, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications and electronic equipment. External RF signals may affect
improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating systems,
entertainment systems, and personal medical devices.
While most modern electronic equipment is shielded from external RF signals, if in
doubt, check with the manufacturer. For personal medical devices (such as
pacemakers and hearing aids), consult with your physician or the manufacturer to
determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF signals.
Caution
Failure to follow these safety instructions could interfere with
the communication of other sensitive electronic devices.

Safety and Compliance Information
Electrical Artifacts
•
Nonhazardous, low-level electrical potentials are commonly observed when using devices.
These potentials are well within accepted safety standards, but may create artifacts on voltage-sensing equipment such as ECG, EMG, and EEG machines. These artifacts vary. If the
monitoring machine is not operating correctly or has loose or defective connections to its sensing electrodes, these artifacts may be accentuated so as to simulate actual physiological signals. To determine if the abnormality in the monitoring equipment is caused by the eQuill
Clipboard device instead of some other source in the environment, turn the eQuill Clipboard
device off. Disappearance of the abnormality indicates that it was probably caused by the electronic noise generated by the eQuill Clipboard device. Proper setup and maintenance of the
monitoring equipment should eliminate the artifact. Refer to the appropriate monitoring equipment system documentation for setup and maintenance instructions.
•
The eQuill Clipboard is designed to operate normally in the presence of most encountered
electromagnetic interference (EMI) conditions.
•
The eQuill Clipboard has been tested and found to comply with the EMC limits for the Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC (EN 55011 Class B and IEC/EN 60601-1-2:2001). These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a typical
medical installation. The equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy,
and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions may cause harmful interference to other devices in the vicinity. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment causes harmful interference with radio, television, or other devices, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user
is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
•
Reorient or relocate the receiving device.
•
Increase the separation between the equipment.
•
Consult the manufacturer or field service technician for help.
•
Portable and mobile RF communications equipment, such as cellular telephones, 2-way radios,
Bluetooth devices, microwave ovens, in close proximity to this device may affect wireless
communication.
•
The eQuill Clipboard is compliant to IEC/EN 60601-1-2 (2001) and have been tested and
found to comply with EMC limits for the Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC (EN 55011
Class B and IEC/EN 60601-1-2:2001).

Entering Data
You can enter data with the easy-to-use stylus or with the soft keyboard.
Using the Stylus
The stylus is custom manufactured for the Ricoh eQuill and is made to produce
high resolution markings. The stylus is used just like a pen; it works like a pen on
paper. Also, the stylus writes and erases. The stylus produces legally verifiable
signatures.
Soft Keyboard
The soft keyboard is invoked automatically by touching the text field with the
stylus when the information needs to be typed. The information is entered by
touch typing with the stylus. You cannot use the stylus to mark in a field that has
been defined by the administrator as a typed entry field.
The Ricoh eQuill offers the following text options:
•
Uppercase Text
•
Lowercase Text
•
Punctuation Text
•
Accent Mark Text
Uppercase Text
The uppercase text is invoked by pressing the shift key and selecting a letter. It
enters one uppercase letter before it reverts to lowercase. You will be able to
distinguish the uppercase letter by the grayed-out letter and shift key.

Templates and Documents
A template is like a pad of blank forms. When you instantiate a template by
clicking on it, it's like tearing off the top form of the pad, making it a unique
form, that you can then write on using the stylus.
Templates are assigned to specific Ricoh eQuill inbox for use. Typically, fifteen
templates can be loaded per page. A Ricoh eQuill Clipboard can support as many
as 500 active templates.
Then the document is routed to the next step in the workflow. Using the softkeys
on the Ricoh eQuill Clipboard, the document can be assigned a unique identifier.
