Safety

All personnel must read and understand all safety information presented in this manual before using or repairing the monitor.

Caution Use only the Welch Allyn Monitor Service Utility (810-1784-XX) with this monitor.

Software service tools, such as the “Custom Repair Software” (part number

130S29E), distributed for use with previous models of the Vital Signs Monitor,

must not be used with the Model 300 Series. Use of any tool other than the

Welch Allyn Monitor Service Utility (810-1784-XX) may set the monitor in an undefined and unrecoverable state.

United States federal law restricts this device to sale, distribution, or use by or on the order of a licensed medical practitioner.

General safety considerations

Always consider the following safety points when using the monitor:

• Place the monitor and accessories in locations where they cannot harm the patient should they fall from a shelf or mount.

• Do not connect more than one patient to a monitor.

• Do not connect more than one monitor to a patient.

• Do not use the monitor in an MRI suite or hyperbaric chamber.

• Do not autoclave the monitor.

• Accessories can be autoclaved only if the manufacturer’s instructions clearly approve it. Many accessories can be severely damaged by autoclaving.

• Inspect the power adapter cord periodically for fraying or other damage. Replace the adapter as needed. Do not operate the monitor from mains power if the adapter, the adapter cord, or the cord plug is damaged.

• Frequently check all cables, both electrically and visually.

• To avoid explosion, do not operate the monitor in the presence of flammable anesthetics.

• To ensure patient safety, use only accessories recommended or supplied by Welch

Allyn. (See Products and Accessories, part number 810-0409-XX.) Always use accessories according to your facility’s standards and according to the manufacturer’s recommendations and instructions. Always follow the manufacturer’s directions for use.

Safety Welch Allyn Vital Signs Monitor 300 Series

• A monitor that has been dropped or otherwise damaged or abused must not be used until it has been tested and verified by qualified service personnel for proper operation.

• If the monitor detects an unrecoverable problem, an error code and a brief message appear in the message display. Report all such errors to Welch Allyn.

• While under warranty, the monitor must be serviced only by a Welch Allyn service technician.

ATTENTION

OBSERVE PRECAUTIONS

FOR HANDLING

ELECTROSTATIC

SENSITIVE DEVICES

WARNING Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage or destroy electronic components. Handle static-sensitive components only at static-safe workstation.

WARNING Consider all electrical and electronic components of the monitor as static-sensitive.

Electrostatic discharge is a sudden current flowing from a charged object to another object or to ground. Electrostatic charges can accumulate on common items such as foam drinking cups, cellophane tape, synthetic clothing, untreated foam packaging material, untreated plastic bags, and work folders, to name only a few.

Electronic components and assemblies, if not properly protected against ESD, can be permanently damaged or destroyed when near or in contact with electrostatically charged objects. When you handle components or assemblies that are not in protective bags and you are not sure whether they are static-sensitive, assume that they are static-sensitive and handle them accordingly.

• Perform all service procedures in a static-protected environment. Always use techniques and equipment designed to protect personnel and equipment from electrostatic discharge.

• Remove static-sensitive components and assemblies from their static-shielding bags only at static-safe workstations—a properly grounded table and grounded floor mat— and only when you are wearing a grounded wrist strap (with a resistor of at least 1 megohm in series) or other grounding device.

• Use only grounded tools when inserting, adjusting, or removing static-sensitive components and assemblies.

• Remove or insert static-sensitive components and assemblies only with monitor power turned off.

• Insert and seal static-sensitive components and assemblies into their original staticshielding bags before removing them from static-protected areas.

• Always test your ground strap, bench mat, conductive work surface, and ground cord before removing components and assemblies from their protective bags and before beginning any disassembly or assembly procedures.

If you are doing the NIBP overpressure test, skip to

“Overpressure tests (optional)” on page 18.

4.

Disconnect the hose from the monitor.

Overpressure tests (optional)

Note

Redundant circuitry in the VSM 300 series monitor guarantees that the bloodpressure cuff cannot overinflate.

The allowable cuff pressure and the overpressure cutoff are controlled by software. A software failure (a defective PROM) would generate a checksum error, disabling monitor operation and setting it in a safe mode.

These tests demonstrate that:

• the monitor cannot exceed the maximum allowable cuff pressure for adults (280 mmHg), pediatrics (200 mmHg), and neonates (141 mmHg)

• the overpressure cutoff feature shuts down the pump and dumps pressure before the pressure reaches 330 mmHg (44 kPa)

To verify maximum allowable cuff pressure for NIBP version 3.20.00

1.

Assemble one of the test setups illustrated on

page 16

, using an adult cuff or cuff simulator.

2.

Turn on the monitor.

3.

Set the monitor to ADULT mode.

a.

Press b.

Press repeatedly until ADULT appears.

4.

Set the inflation target pressure to 270 mmHg (36 kPa).

a.

Press repeatedly until TARGET PRESSURE appears in the display window.

b.

Press repeatedly as needed to set the target pressure (displayed in the SYS window) to 270 mmHg (36 kPa).

5.

Press to start the pump.

The pressure reaches approximately 270 mmHg (36 kPa), the pump shuts off, and the pressure begins stepping down.

6.

Carefully squeeze the pump bulb to raise the pressure to 280 mmHg (37.3 kPa).

• The dump valve opens and quickly drops the pressure to approximately 0.

• The monitor displays C10 to indicate that an overpressure event has occurred.

7.

Set the monitor to PEDIATRIC mode.

8.

Set the inflation target pressure to 170 mmHg (22.7 kPa).

9.

Raise the pressure to 200 mmHg (26.7 kPa).

a.

Press and wait for the pressure to reach 170 mmHg (22.7 kPa). The pump shuts off and the pressure reading starts stepping down.

b.

Carefully squeeze the pump bulb to raise the pressure to 200 mmHg (26.7 kPa).

• The dump valve opens and quickly drops the pressure to approximately 0.

• The monitor displays C10 to indicate that an overpressure event has occurred.

10. Replace the adult cuff with a #1 neonate cuff, and wrap the neonate cuff securely around a solid cylindrical object with circumference between 1.6 and 1.9 inches (4.1 and 4.8 cm).

11. Set the monitor to NEONATE mode.

12. Set the inflation target pressure to 132 mmHg (17.6 kPa).

13. Raise the pressure to 141 mmHg.

a.

Press and wait for the pressure to reach 132 mmHg (17.6 kPa). The pump shuts off and the pressure reading starts stepping down.

b.

Carefully squeeze the pump bulb to raise the pressure to 141 mmHg (18.8 kPa).

• The dump valve opens and quickly drops the pressure to approximately 0.

• The monitor displays C10 to indicate that an overpressure event has occurred.

To verify overpressure cutoff for NIBP versions 4.20.00 and later

This test demonstrates that the overpressure cutoff feature prevents pressure from rising fast enough to exceed the cutoff pressure (295 to 330 mmHg, or 39.3 to 44.0 kPa) before the pump stops and the dump valve and the bleed valve open.

20

Functional verification Welch Allyn VSM 300 Series

When the overpressure cutoff triggers, the pump stops, the dump and bleed valves open, and the monitor displays E40. Any subsequent button press shuts off the monitor.

Note

Due to NIBP implementation differences, this test does not verify overpressure cutoff in earlier NIBP versions.

In those versions, due to a longer software delay in activating the cutoff function, the normal overpressure cuff pressure is exceeded before the overpressure cutoff safety triggers. If the normal overpressure-detection algorithm were to fail, the overpressure cutoff safety function would trigger immediately.

1.

Restart the monitor.

2.

Set the monitor to ADULT mode.

3.

Set the inflation target pressure to 270 mmHg (36.0 kPa).

4.

Increase the inflation rate, causing the overpressure cutoff to stop the pump and open the bleed and dump valves.

a.

Start the pump.

b.

When the pressure (SYS window) reaches approximately 230 mmHg (32.4 kPa), very rapidly squeeze the pump bulb while observing the digital pressure meter.

Assuming that you squeeze the bulb rapidly enough to reach the trigger threshold and activate the overpressure cutoff:

• The pressure does not exceed 280 mmHg.

• The dump valve and bleed valve open, dropping the pressure to approximately 0.

• E40 appears in the Sys window.

• Pressing any button causes the monitor to shut down.

5.

Disconnect the test setup from the monitor.

Update Monitor Software

The Update Monitor tab displays installed (Installed Ver) and available (Update Ver) versions for the Monitor Boot, Main, and NIBP module software. If the monitor has an optional SpO

2

or temperature module, the firmware versions are displayed. Update status is shown for each, indicating whether an update is available for those versions that can be updated.

If the version installed on the monitor is newer than what the utility supports, the status displays “Not supported”. Contact Welch Allyn Technical Service to obtain an updated version of this utility.

The status also indicates whether the installed software and firmware versions are compatible with the update versions offered. The program checks for compatibility within the module as well as compatibility between modules. If any of the software or firmware is incompatible with the available updates the update button will not be active.

The SpO

2

and temperature module firmware can only be updated by replacing the hardware modules. If the NIBP, SpO

2

or temperature module has been replaced with a different version, the installed version for the new module is shown in orange.

The monitor hardware module field Installed Ver reports the mainboard hardware version.

The hardware version is included to prepare for the eventual possibility that incompatible versions might someday be introduced. Currently (March 2007), all VSM mainboards have

HW code 0. No incompatibilities currently exist between versions of the board.

Disassembly procedure Welch Allyn VSM 300 Series

Connectors

Caution All connectors are keyed or coded to facilitate proper connection. Take care to correctly align all connector halves before attempting to connect them.

Connector types

The procedures described below require you to disconnect and reconnect ZIF (zeroinsertion force) connectors, squeeze-release connectors, and pressure connectors.

Zero-insertion force (ZIF) flex-cable connectors

ZIF flex-cable connectors include J1 on the display board, CN2 on the printer board, J1 on the temperature board, and J5 and J12 on the main board.

ZIF connectors use a sliding outer piece that latches and unlatches to secure and release the flex cable.

• To release a ZIF cable, slide the latching piece of the connector away from the connector body and toward the cable; the cable can then be removed without effort.

• To connect a ZIF cable, slide the latching piece of the connector body toward the cable, insert the flex cable easily into the connector, and slide the latching piece back toward the connector body until it clicks into place.

Caution Do not attempt to remove a flex cable until the ZIF latch has been opened.

Side-release connectors

Side-release connectors include J7 and J9 on the main board and J2 on the NIBP board.

To use side-release connectors, squeeze the sides of the connectors to insert or remove the cables.

Pressure connectors

Pressure connectors include and CN1 and CN3 on the printer board; J2, J3, J4, J6, J8,

J10, and J11 on the main board; J1 and J2 on the SpO

2

board.

To use pressure connectors, grasp each mating connector half and pull the halves apart or insert one half into the other.

Caution Never attempt to disconnect cables by pulling on the wires. Always disconnect cables by grasping and pulling only on the connector halves.

Main board connectors

For the best results when disconnecting cables from the main board, disconnect the upper cables first and work your way to the bottom of the board, in approximately the following order:
