Repair of a damaged circuit board is not feasible. . Verification DSI hardware and software are extensively tested and calibrated before leaving our factory or warehouse. Researchers should independently verify the basic accuracy of materials delivered.
About This User Guide This User Guide provides instructions on how to set up and operate the DSI JET System. The DSI JET™ System is designed to be used in conjunction with the Ponemah™ Physiology Platform (P3 Plus)/Life Science Suite software for data acquisition and analysis.
Theory of Operation Refer to Figure 1 below. ™ ® The JET System consists of externally worn telemetry devices. JET is a Bluetooth enabled system specially designed for toxicology and safety pharmacology laboratories running large animal studies. It can be used to monitor ECG, temperature, and activity.

There are 3 models of JET devices available. The models differ by the number of channels that can be recorded by each device. The housing of each of the 3 models is the same, with the devices differentiated based on the lead set that is connected.
Specifications JET Device Models Refer to Figure 2. There are 3 different models of JET devices. The main differentiator between each of the devices is the number of channels per device. The JET-5ETA-BP device includes a second jack enabling a 2 lead set to be connected (not pictured).
There are 3 different lead sets available for each of the JET devices. Each type of lead is available in versions that are approximately 12 or 26 inches long. 1 channel Consists of a pair of differential leads (positive, negative) and a differential lead reference lead.
The jacket dimensions must be customized for your animal The minimum jacket pocket dimensions are shown in Figure 7. Contact your DSI Salesperson for a list of companies providing jackets that have been optimized for use with JET devices. Undershirt or Self...
Jacket Pocket Size Recommendations Refer to Figure 7. Overall Size The pocket in which the JET Device will be contained must have minimum dimensions of 6” (15.2 cm) long by 2.75” (7 cm) wide by 1.25” (3.2 cm) deep in order to accommodate the JET device. Dimensions slightly larger than those shown in Figure 7 are recommended especially if one desires to use any JET Add-Ons such as respiration or blood pressure.
Pocket Location on the Jacket The recommended pocket location is either on the back or flank depending upon the animal being used. If the pocket is located on the back, it should be located close to the tail of the animal (with the top of the pocket toward the head).
Figure 8b. Alternative ECG Lead placement for dogs (without Respiration) Attach the leads to the electrodes. Make sure the electrodes adhere adequately to their sites. Route the thermistor and electrode leads to where the jacket hole will be when the jacket is on the animal. Optionally wrap the animal with a thin layer of gauze followed by a thin layer of self-adhesive elastic bandage covering the electrode leads and wires.
To Place Respiratory Inductive Plethysmography (RIP) Bands Select the proper size band for the test subject and strap around the abdomen (above the navel and below the ribcage) and chest (just distal to the forelimbs). Refer to Figure 9. A snug undershirt may be used if available. Attach the first wire to the snap that is on the same side of the band as the Velcro patch.
Figure 11 Attachment of Modules to Bands The Chest and Abdomen modules should be connected to the 3 Channel Differential Lead as pictured in Figure 12. The Chest Module should be connected to the White snaps and the Abdomen Module should be connected to the Red snaps.

Figure 14 Back of JET device with battery removed Refer to Figure 14. Plug the DSI-supplied charger into a standard wall outlet, and then insert the battery into the charger bay such that the metal plates on the battery line up with the contacts in the bay.
Direct exposure to water may damage the electronics, making it unusable, and may void the warranty. DSI only recommends surface decontamination using disinfectant wipes. Any other decontamination process may damage your devices and could potentially void its warranty.
Room Setup Recommendations Purpose This section provides a brief summary of DSI’s recommendations on setting up an animal room for use with the JET System. It will focus on where to locate your JET Bluetooth Receivers, room considerations, how to connect receivers to power and the network, and how to protect receivers.
IP address on the same subnet though some firewall or security settings may need to be modified by your IT group. DSI would also recommend that your IT group define DHCP lease times that are at least 14 days (preferably 30 days) in length. If using a corporate network with static IP addresses the JET Receivers, E2S-1, and Ponemah computers will require static IPs in the same subnet.

Appendix 1: Lithium Ion Battery Storage Recommendations Background DSI’s JET System was designed to use a lithium ion rechargeable battery in order to reduce the cost of use and to have less impact on the environment. This paper will provide recommendations for maximizing the operational life of your lithium ion battery.

JET Device Device * This table assumes all components are built to the DSI standard and do not exhibit any physical damage. It is possible for devices with physical damage to exhibit similar behavior without any connections being compromised. ** Channel 1 if using a JET-EA-BP, Channel 3 if using a JET-3ETA-BP or JET-5ETA-BP.

If ECG data is appearing on the BP Channel: • DSI recommends enabling the Ejection Time (ET) parameter. • This will allow the data to be reviewed for periods where the ET is very small, which is more characteristic of an ECG than BP data, and bad data marks can be manually placed around such areas.

Appendix 4: Referencing the APR-1 Summary The collection of Blood Pressure data via JET requires specific hardware and software configurations in order to properly account for ambient pressure. This document will provide you with the necessary instructions. Instructions The instructions below are valid for Ponemah versions 4.9 and newer. Instructions are broken up into two different sections depending upon the Application Configuration which is in use.

BP Analysis Attributes Setup i. Following the setup of the APR-1 as a BARO channel the BP channel analysis attributes must be set to reference this APR-1. This is done by selecting the BP channel, assuring the Analysis type is set to BP, then clicking on Analysis Attributes and then selecting the Offsets tab.

Special Note: A Transmitter must also be set up or the APR won’t be available as a channel! Software Setup Configure the APR-1 and Transmitter using Edit DSI Setup Select Transmitter via Select DSI sources APR-1 Channel Setup i. Configure the eAPR-1 channel by performing the following Using the menu system access Setup –...
