Preventive maintenance is recommended to be performed on the Surveyor Central System once every 12 months. Preventive maintenance is to be performed by Mortara authorized service personnel WARNING: only. Prior to performing preventive maintenance, be sure the Surveyor Central system is not in active use and all of the clinical data on the system has been properly stored/archived.

Surveyor Central System / Network Verification Node to node connectivity check: From a Surveyor Central control node, communicate to the other nodes of the networked system by opening a command prompt and pinging each node’s IP Address per the system network diagram. This process can also be used for testing communications between the Surveyor Central to S12/S19 Multi Parameter Monitors.

5 minutes, the UPS may require repair or internal battery replacement. Mortara recommends replacing the internal batteries on the UPS units provided by Mortara when the RED “Battery End of Life” indicator is illuminated or every 3 years.
Inspect CPU fan, and power supply fan. If they are running too slowly or are making any unusual noises during operation, they should be replaced. For improperly operating PC power supply fans, Mortara recommends replacing the entire power supply unit.
Page 31
Section 3 Antenna Network Maintenance Equipment needed: Ladder, flashlight and digital multi-meter. Verify all connections of coax cables are secure. Verify both lights are illuminated on each antenna network unit. If either light is out it could be caused by either a faulty antenna network box (which would need to be replaced), or a disconnected coax cable between this antenna network box and the next unit in the chain.

Surveyor Central Signal Strength Verification Antenna Network Verification (covered area) Equipment needed: ECG Simulator, X-12+/T12x Transmitter, and map of covered area. • Turn on ECG simulator with transmitter and simulator connected. • Set channel on all the monitoring slot of Surveyor Telemetry Central System to match the selected transmitter channel and start monitoring on all beds.
Page 33
Section 3 System Receiver Module Verification After verifying one of the receiver modules meets specifications during the previous “Signal Strength Verification” testing, the test transmitter should be mapped to each of the separate receiver modules installed in the system hardware. Each receiver module should be checked for proper operation, making sure that the signal strength level measures >-80db and the ECG waveforms do not show signs of distortion or drop out with the transmitter placed at location #1 from the previous test.

Surveyor Central 19. Replacing PCECG RF Board If the Central Station has more than one PCI RF board the easiest way to determine which board is causing the issue is to start a monitoring session on an adjacent bed next to the bed that is having an issue. Next disconnect one of the BNC cables connected to one of the PCI RF boards.
Page 43
Section 4 8. Install the replacement board being careful not bend the board (bending the board can cause damage to components) 9. Replace the cover to the Central Station PC 10. Reconnect all cables to the Central Station PC. Be sure to connect the cables in the same locations as noted in steps 3 and 4.
