• Connect your stress system to the Tango M2 using the BNC external ECG and RS-232 cables. You can use the USB cable instead of the RS-232 cable if your Tango M2 came with this option. Please view the Interface Notes in the E-Library inside your Tango M2 to see the correct set-up between these two systems.

Test the combined system by taking a blood pressure measurement to confirm that Tango M2 is working properly with the stress system. Follow the instructions in the Using Tango M2 during a Stress Test section of this guide (PG #29).
The ON/OFF button is blue and located on the top back right corner of the monitor. Use the six buttons on the front panel to operate the monitor. The blue LED on the top of Tango M2 will be lit whenever the monitor is powered on.
SpO is not connected and displayed in blue if SpO is connected. • The SpO field will be blank if no SpO sensor is attached to the monitor. 80-0055-00-MO-Rev F 2018-2-20 SunTech Tango M2 User Manual | 15...

ECG signal automatically from the stress system once the patient ECG connections are in place. NOTE: Tango M2 can be used in OSC MODE to take blood pressure readings without an ECG signal before exercise begins. The patient must remain still while these readings are being taken! Refer to the DKA MODE vs. OSC Mode section of this guide for more information.

If Controlled by the Stress System When the Tango M2 is connected to a stress system, the stress system will control the BP intervals. The Tango M2 will follow a predetermined BP interval protocol driven by the stress system. In this instance, the timed intervals do not need to be programmed into the Tango M2.
The monitor will automatically reset for a new patient when the ECG signal has been dropped for over a minute (i.e., when the ECG leads are removed from the patient). All patient information displays will be cleared. Instead of automatically resetting, Tango M2 can be set to display a “New Patient?” prompt when the ECG signal drops, by selecting the Main Menu >...
5. Using Tango M2 Without a Stress System Follow these steps to use Tango M2 with an Internal ECG option when it is not connected to a stress system: Measure patient's arm to ensure proper cuff sizing. Place a blood pressure cuff on the patient’s arm...
Step 3. Take Blood Pressure Readings Press the START/STOP button to manually prompt the monitor to take blood pressure readings. Take Blood Pressure Readings in the previous section of this guide for information about other Tango M2 functions: • Readings at Timed Intervals •...
The Tango M2 will shut down if the cable's voltage is shorted to ground until the fault is removed. In the case of a damaged cable remove the SpO cable from the Tango M2 and resume normal use of the Tango M2.
Preventative Maintenance System Self Checks Tango M2 performs a range of system and software checks during normal operation. If Tango detects a problem, it will display an error code with a message to contact SunTech Customer Service. WARNING: DO NOT USE the monitor if it displays a greater than zero pressure with no cuff attached.
If a Tango M2 software update is available, you can update your monitor easily using the USB-A port. Software updates should only be installed by a trained technician who is familiar with operation of the Tango M2. Please call your SunTech Medical Customer Service if you need assistance.
Electronic and Electrical Equipment (WEEE). The SunTech Tango M2 device encloses a small lithium ion battery and Printed Circuit (PC) board that contain materials which may be hazardous to human health. The battery cannot be easily removed and therefore the Tango M2 must be disposed of in an environmentally responsible way or returned to SunTech Medical.

Alarms Alarm Types The Tango M2 can set clinical alarms for different patient physiological parameters as listed in the table below. The Tango M2 uses two types of high priority alarms, Patient Physiological (clinical) alarms and Technical (equipment limitation) type alarms. All alarms indicate a potential of injury if the alarm is ignored or misunderstood. Ensure that appropriate resuscitation equipment and personnel are available at all times during the procedure.

Guidance and Manufacturer’s Declaration – Electromagnetic Immunity The Tango M2 Monitor is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified below. The customer or the user of the Tango M2 Monitor should assure that it is used in such an environment.
Page 42
To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Tango M2 is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Tango M2 should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed additional measures may be necessary such as reorienting or relocating the Tango M2.
Performance can be affected if, used or stored outside the specified temperature, humidity, or altitude listed in the ranges above. External power supply, use only SunTech part number 19-0012-01. Input: 100-240 VAC @ 1.5A Power: max, 50-60 Hz. Output +9VDC @ 5A IEC 320 type input connector.
