92 Acuity Central Station Welch Allyn 1500 Patient Monitor
Caution Make sure the Acuity network cable is not damaged. The Acuity
network cable is the sole link between the monitor and the Acuity Central
Station.
Caution When the monitor is not connected to the network there are no patient
alarms or alerts at the Acuity Central Station.
Caution If you don’t set alarm limits, the Acuity system uses preset settings
(for arrhythmia test limits), and the power up default settings for the monitor.
Caution Accessory equipment connected to the analog and digital interfaces
must be certified according to the respective IEC standards (e.g., EN 60950 for
data processing equipment and EN 60601-1 for medical equipment).
Furthermore, all configurations shall comply with the system standard IEC 60601-
1-1. Anyone connecting additional equipment to the signal input or output
connectors is configuring a medical system, and is therefore responsible that the
system complies with the requirements of the system standard IEC 60601-1-1. If
in doubt, consult your Administrator Engineering Department.
