This Technical Reference Manual Slot provides information for the maintenance and service of the Datex-Ohmeda S/5 EEG Module, M-EEG and Datex-Ohmeda S/5 EEG Headbox, N-EEG. The EEG module is a single width plug-in module designed for use with the S/5 monitors. Later in this manual modules can be called w/o system name S/5.

Datex-Ohmeda S/5 monitors FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION 2.1 Measurement principle 2.1.1 EEG EEG is differential voltage signal measured from electrodes attached to the patient’s skin. EEG measures the spontaneous electrical activity of the brain. This electrical activity reflects the state of the brain.
S/5 EEG Module, M-EEG and S/5 Headbox, N-EEG of the brain. To overcome this the stimulus is repeated several times (100...2000), and average of all responses is calculated. Responses containing big artefacts are removed from the average to improve the signal to noise ratio. 2.1.4 Impedance measurement The impedance measurement is done from one channel at a time and the EEG or EP measurement is stopped during the impedance measurement.
Field service of the M-EEG and N-EEG is limited to replacing faulty circuit boards or mechanical parts. Faulty circuit boards should be returned to Datex-Ohmeda for repair. Datex-Ohmeda is always available for service advice. Please provide the unit serial number, full type designation, and a detailed description of the fault.
Datex-Ohmeda S/5 monitors 3.2 Service check These instructions include complete procedures for a service check. The service check is recommended to be performed after any service repair. However, the service check procedures can also be used for determining possible failures.

Start AEP stimulation by pressing the button on the module. Check that the clicking sound comes from the earphones in 1.1 Hz frequency. EP Start/Stop Stop the stimulation by pressing again the button on the module.
Datex-Ohmeda S/5 monitors 3.3 Disassembly and reassembly 3.3.1 M-EEG Disassemble the M-EEG in the following way. See Figure Exploded view of module box and EEG module Remove the two screws from the back of the module. Pull the module box slowly rearward and detach it from main body. Be careful with the loose latch and spring locking pin.

S/5 EEG Module, M-EEG and S/5 Headbox, N-EEG BSR shows the burst-suppression classification of EEG waveforms. 0 means artifact, 1 suppression, 2 burst and 3 invalid (the EEG is not classified). Artefact shows the artefact status of all channels. 0 means that there are no artefacts on the signal and 1 means that there are artefatcs.
