Setting up the Capsule Neuron [Chapter 2]

English
Deploying the Capsule Neuron
In typical deployments of the Capsule Neuron, you can mount it on the wall, or mount it on a roll
stand or other mobile configuration.
Note: For compliance with EN/IEC 60601-1, the Capsule Neuron is not classified as a portable device.
Instead, the Capsule Neuron must be deployed as one of:
- Mobile device
- Fixed device
Precautions for all deployments
Considerations for wall-mounted deployments
When you are deciding where to place the Capsule Neuron at the point of care, Capsule
recommends that you take account of the following considerations.
• Mount the Capsule Neuron near the head of the bed or on the head wall in the patient room.
• To allow clinicians easy access to the Capsule Neuron touch screen, mount the Capsule Neuron no
more than 1.5 meters (5 feet) or less than 1 meter (3 feet, 3 inches) from the ground.
• If there are medical devices connected to the ports on the Capsule Neuron, position the Capsule
Neuron on the same side of the bed as those devices.
• Make sure that you take account of the length of the cables required to connect the Capsule
Neuron and the medical devices.
Mounting the Capsule Neuron on the wall
Attach the Capsule Neuron to your selected VESA 75/100 wall-mounted solution. Refer to the
instructions from the solution manufacturer.
Caution:
• Do not place the Capsule Neuron inside furniture or inside any enclosed space. This could
prevent correct cooling of the device and interfere with radio communications.
• Operate the Capsule Neuron only within these environmental conditions:
- Temperature: +10°C to +40°C (+32°F to °+104°F)
- Atmospheric pressure: Atmospheric pressure: 700 hPa to 1060 hPa
- Altitude: -100 meters to +2000 meters (-328 feet to +6560 feet)
- Humidity: 10% to 95% RH non-condensing
• Do not stack the Capsule Neuron or place it next to other equipment. If you do, then check it for
normal operation running its usual configuration.
• In semi-private rooms, connectors must be placed or labeled so that they clearly indicate the bed
for which they collect data.
Caution: For Capsule Neurons that are installed above the patient, take adequate precautions to
prevent them from falling on the patient.
