Warnings

Not Intended For Dialing Emergency
Medical Services
The VX Clinical Assistant is not intended to make
emergency calls. In the event of an emergency, the
user should use a telephone or device other than the
Cisco Telepresence VX Clinical Assistant™ to call local
emergency services.

Improper Transport Methods

When transporting the mobile cart over an obstacle
greater than 10 mm, it is recommended that 2 people
assist in the transport. The preferred method is to
backing the rear wheels over the threshold and then
rotating such that the front two wheels are not both
elevated off the ground at the same time while the front
of the cart is being tipped over the threshold. There
are handles on the work surface designed for assisting
in moving and will serve as the fixed transport position.
There will be a "Do Not Push" label place on a visible
area of the front of the cart. Label information will be in
the User Guide.
Please refer to the Cisco TelePresence VX Clinical
Assistant ™ (VXCA) Installation and User Guide
under "Operator Safety Summary" and "Important
Safeguards. See http://www.cisco.com/en/US/
products/ps12152/tsd_products_support_series_
home.html.

Loss of Connectivity

During the use of the VX Clinical Assistant, a
healthcare professional may lose connectivity with the
system. Loss of connectivity can result from power
141299.21 Cisco TelePresence VX Clinical Assistant
outages, network outages, failure in the VX Clinical
Assistant software/hardware, or other causes. Loss
of connectivity can prevent a health care professional
from completing a patient session in a timely manner.
In cases where time is critical, the user should not
use the VX Clinical Assistant and seek an in-person
examination from a licensed health care professional.
Delay or Choppiness of Audio or Video
Transmission
The VX Clinical Assistant may operate at a delay of up
to 150 milliseconds, depending on network condition.
This means that the provider may experience the
audio and video transmissions later then they are really
occurring. In cases where the remote health care
provider needs to make time sensitive assessments or
give instructions this delay may result in misalignment
of audio and visual transmissions to the real-time
procedure and/or inappropriate treatment or diagnosis.

Proper Training Is Required

Healthcare professionals using the VX Clinical Assistant
should be sufficiently trained and familiar with the
Installation and User Guide and the instructions for
use. Please refer to the Cisco Telepresence VX
Clinical Assistant™ Installation and User Guide (under
"Troubleshooting & Frequently Asked Questions,"
"Safety Precautions" and "Operator Safety Precaution."

Camera May Not Focus

There may be times when the system's main camera
or a connected peripheral camera does not focus or
loses focus. This problem can result from equipment
malfunction, improper use of the camera, improper
configuration, or other reasons. An improperly
configured or poorly focused camera may reduce the
quality of the image. The camera can be maximized on
the inputs on frame rate and resolution. Please refer
to the Cisco TelePresence System Codec C Series
"Getting Started Guide" at http://www.cisco.com/en/
US/products/ps11422/prod_installation_guides_list.

Audio Distortions

The VX Clinical Assistant can experience audio
distortions due to network latency, software/hardware
malfunction, insufficient bandwidth, or for other
reasons. If audio is not of sufficient quality for the
intended use of the VX Clinical Assistant, please refer
to the Cisco Telepresence VX Clinical Assistant™
Installation and User Guide (under "Source Controls,"
"Technical Specifications," and "Troubleshooting
& Frequently Asked Questions." See
cisco.com/en/US/products/ps11417/tsd_products_
