optional module and the other of the duplex fibers connecting to the last optional
module. The modules are then connected to each other using short simplex fiber optic
cables.
The fiber optic oximeter sensor attaches to the module using a Lemo connector. To
make the connection, align the red dots and push the connector straight into the
receptacle. To disconnect the sensor grasp the connector with the thumb and index
finger near the red dot and pull straight back. Do not turn or twist the connector
housing. With the module positioned near the entrance to the bore, the fiber optic
sensor is long enough to extend into the bore and attach to the animal.
Display configuration
To add pulse oximetry to the monitor configuration, execute PC-sam and select the
option to "open the MONITOR SETUP window". Select the Pulse Ox Plethysmogram
Trace option on the left side of the window.
Changing sensor clips and forms
Fiber optic pulse oximetry sensors are constructed so the fibers can be detached from
the clip or form that attaches to the animal. Small, large and extra large clips as well as
mouse and rat tail/ankle forms are available.
Each fiber has a collar. The collars
have a grove on each side that lock
into tracks on the clips and forms.
Small and large clips are shown.
