If DSL is installed as the broadband connection, be certain that a DSL filter is installed between the
monitor and wall jack.
Powering up
Before you power up the Genesis DM monitor:
•
Check to see that you have attached all of the equipment.
•
Make sure that the scale is in the proper location. Moving the scale is not recommended once
you power up.
•
Look to see that there is nothing on the scale. The scale will not zero correctly if there is any
weight on it when the monitor turns on.
•
Position the monitor so that the cords are out of the patient's way, and do not create a tripping
hazard, and that the back of the monitor has at least a two-inch clearance from surrounding
objects or walls.
•
Plug the AC adapter jack into the power input on the rear of the monitor.
•
Plug the power brick into an outlet on the power strip. Make sure that the brick is flush with
the strip.
•
Plug the power strip into a wall outlet. Turn the strip's power switch on.
As soon the monitor powers up, it displays the current software version. If the monitor detects any
problems, the Genesis DM displays an error code. For a list of error codes, refer to the Genesis DM
Monitor Field Reference. A serious error will halt the system. If a serious error occurs, contact Customer
Service. All error codes should be investigated as they may prevent proper operation.
After a successful power-up, the monitor enters the idle mode, and the panel displays the current date,
day of week, and time randomly across the screen. If the Genesis DM monitor is for multi-patient use
and does not have any programmed report times, the idle mode displays a prompt that asks the user to
swipe their ID card.
