Input Connectors

Phone jack for accepting ECG signals (±6 volts DC maximum) from a
remote monitor. Input to this jack is displayed on the green ECG (top)
line of the AutoCAT ® 2 Series waveform display. CAUTION: Pacer
output must be available from the bedside monitor for pacers to be
detected and displayed by the AutoCAT
the bedside monitor to insure pacer output is turned ON, when pacer
detection is required.
Phone jack accepts signals (up to ±6 volts DC, 100mmHg/volt) from
a remote Arterial Pressure monitor. Input to this jack is displayed
on the red Arterial Pressure (second) line of the AutoCAT
waveform display. Output of the remote monitor must be calibrated
at 100mmHg/volt.
Green Nicolay connector for patient ECG cable. Input to this
connector is amplified by the AutoCAT
green ECG. 5 lead cables only.
Orange Nicolay connector for an Arterial Pressure Transducer
(use only Spectramed transducers or their electrical equivalents,
i.e. 50 µV/V/cm Hg). Input to this connector is amplified by the
AutoCAT ® 2 Series and is displayed on the red Arterial Pressure
(second) line of the AutoCAT ®
The AP FiberOptix ™ sensor has two connections. The first is the
actual FiberOptix ™ sensor light source and sensor. This is a slide
on the second tier of connections on the Right side of the pump driving
unit. To connect the AP FiberOptix
connector attached to the IAB with the arrow facing outward and slide
the connector into the grooves. The connector will only fit one way.
Slide the connector into the receptacle and press the connector until it
clicks. The click insures the connector is fully seated in the receptacle.
Attached to the AP FiberOptix
contains important information about the FiberOptix
the FiberOptix ™ sensor is connected to the IABP, connect the CAL key
in the receptacle next to the IAB connector. NOTE: If this key is not
inserted, a message will appear on the display: CAL KEY Missing.
CAUTION: The FiberOptix ™ sensor will not work properly without the
calibration key. The calibration key must be connected to properly
zero the sensor and provide the correct calibration information to the
pump. The calibration key must not be changed during use of the
sensor. Using a calibration key other than the one supplied with the
IAB may result in incorrect AP readings.
