• EVIDENCE THAT THE SAFETY CERTIFICATION OF
THE ACCESSORY HAS BEEN PERFORMED IN
ACCORDANCE TO THE APPROPRIATE IEC 60601-1
AND/OR IEC 60601-1-1 HARMONIZED NATIONAL
STANDARD.
Under normal operation, power is cycled through the ON/Standby button. The Reset
button can be used to reset the software functions of the BIS monitor (and the BISx if it is
attached) in the unlikely case that it is required. See Section 6.4. “Using the Reset Button.”
The Battery/Power Supply cover contains the BIS VISTA monitor’s power supply and
allows access to its battery.
The power cord receptacle, located on the side of the Battery/Power Supply cover, is used
to plug in the power cord provided by the manufacturer. It provides power to the monitor
and to the BISx when it is attached.
Caution:
The BIS VISTA Monitoring System complies with the electromagnetic
compatibility requirements of IEC 60601-1-2. Operation of this device
may affect or be affected by other equipment in the vicinity due to
electromagnetic interference (EMI). If this occurs:
• Increase separation between devices
• Re-orient device cabling
• Plug devices into separate outlet circuit branches
Refer to Section 8.2 “Electromagnetic Compatibility Specifications”.
2.3.1.5 Integral Battery
A rechargeable lithium ion battery inside the monitor provides approximately 45 minutes of
back-up power when power cannot be supplied via the power cord. Recharge time is
approximately 6 hours. The battery charges continually as long as the unit is plugged into
A/C power.
When the system is running on battery, a battery icon displays indicating the battery status. A
battery icon with four green bars indicates that the battery is fully charged. When the battery
reaches a low power condition, the monitor beeps and the battery symbol displayed on the
screen changes color. In addition, a “Battery Voltage Low” message blinks in the Message
area of the screen.
Caution:
Check the battery periodically by operating a BIS VISTA monitor that
has been disconnected from the wall socket and that has been charged
to full capacity (at least 6 hours of charge time). After long periods of
storage, charge the battery for 6 hours to assure full capacity. If the
BIS VISTA monitor fails to operate reliably from the battery for
approximately 45 minutes, battery replacement is required.
