AXB4-310.621.01.02.02 1 / 12DRAFTPart: AddendumWireless Remote ControlImportant informationThe functions of the Wireless Remote Control are activated via an RF transmitter.The Wireless Remote Control shall be operated in close vicinity to the patient table only and with full visibility to the patient on the table.The batteries shall always be sufficiently charged.The Wireless Remote Control can interfere with life supporting devices.Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user´s authority to operate the equipment.The Wireless Remote Control may be interfered with by other equipment, includ-ing portable and mobile RF communication equipment, even if such equipment meets the applicable emissions requirements.Note The Wireless Remote Control may be interfered by other equipment, including portable and fixed RF communication equipment, even if such equipment meets the applicable emission requirements.The operator must assure that other wireless devices in the 2.4 GHz ISM band should not be operated in the vicinity of appr. 5 m around the X-ray system.System movements may be interrupted sporadically.Please observe and verify normal operation of the Wireless Remote Control rior to using it.CautionWireless Remote Control too close to a life supporting device!Interference with life supporting device and possible mal functioningMake sure to keep a separation distance of larger than 7 cm between the Wire-less Remote Control and the life supporting device.In case of interference with other equipment increase the distance between in-terfering devices.CautionMechanical or personal damageEmergency stop interrupts movements immediatelyUse remote control only when there is visual and accoustic contact with patient.In case of unintended movement press next emergency STOP button.
Addendum2 / 12 AXB4-310.621.01.02.02 AddendumDRAFTOperation is subject to the following two conditions:1. this device may not cause interference and2. this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.The Wireless Remote Control must emit electromagnetic energy in order to per-form its intended function. Nearby electronic equipment may be affected.Note Use the remote control only inside the examination room.
Wireless Remote Control AXB4-310.621.01.02.02 3 / 12DRAFTOperationWireless Remote Control (example)The remote control is active in a range of appr. 5 m around the table/stand, where the receiver is mounted. If the remote control is in a wider range of the table, it may lose contact with the receiver and will then turn into an inactive mode.Display areaOperation areaSelection area
Addendum4 / 12 AXB4-310.621.01.02.02 AddendumDRAFTDisplay areaThere are 3 LEDs showing the status of the remote control.Green LED on: Remote control is on and is in active mode.Green LED off: Remote control is inactive.– It is too far away from the table – The x-ray system is switched off – The batteries are completely discharged– The remote control is in “sleep mode”. Press a button swiftly to activate it again.Orange LED on: An operation button is being pressed.LED off: battery sufficiently charged, remote control not connected to the Charging Station, LED flashing red: battery needs charging, remaining capacity < 4h.LED on red: remote control connected to Charging Station and batteries are being charged.LED on green: remote control connected to Charging Station and batteries arefully charged.This symbol marks an RF transmitting component.Selection areaIn the selection area you can select which part of the system you want to operate.The green LED on the selected button is on.Selection of tube unitSelection of detectorSelection of patient table

The same marks are attached to the respective table and room during installation.These are two examples of colored signs of different shape to mark the remote control to an x-ray system.
Addendum8 / 12 AXB4-310.621.01.02.02 AddendumDRAFTCharging StationThe Wireless Remote Control is plugged in the Charging Station for charging the batteries. It is recommended to charge the batteries every day after deployment.Charging StationIf the Wireless Remote Control needs charging during a patient procedure, simply plug it in the Charging Station.Installation The Charging Station can be installed either at the wall or on the table.Exchange of batteriesThe batteries of the Wireless Remote Control must be exchanged once a year by authorized and trained staff. Please call Siemens Service. Unauthorized exchange may cause severe damage.Note Never use another charging device than the Charging Station delivered with the Wireless Remote Control. Note For safety reasons, never touch the charging contacts and the patient simulta-neoulsy when the charging station is connected to a socket (charging contacts are permanently energized).
