Installing the Instrument
The detachable three-wire power cable grounds the Instrument to the power
line ground when plugged into an appropriate three-wire receptacle. This
cable protects both the patient and the hospital staff. Do not use any other
power cable.
Switch-mode power supply automatically selects the necessary line voltage
for the system.
The mounting surface frequently dictates the type of screw to be used when
mounting the equipment. Ability to analyse the mounting surface protects
both the patient and the hospital staff. Do not mount equipment unless the
screws are adequate and safe for the purpose.
