2.4.1 Grounding the patient bed

The ground plug on the back of the Eclipse can be used to further reduce noise in the test environment
during evoked potential testing.
1. Unscrew the Ground outlet bolt from the back of the Eclipse.
2. Attach the looped end of the ground wire around the metal screw and reattach the bolt.
3. Attach the clamp at the other end of the wire to either the patient bed or chair used during evoked
potential testing. Ensure it is connected to a conductive metal part (unpainted) such as screw or bolt
on the bed/chair.
Please consult with a medical device safety specialist if in doubt.
