Mounting Recommendations
Securely mount the Monitor and Pump-Unit with the
supplied brackets to an IV pole or equivalent, according to
your institution’s practices. Contact your local Edwards
representative for recommendations on mounting carts, racks
or other options.
Connecting the Monitor and Pump-Unit
1 After the Monitor and Pump-Unit are securely mounted,
attach the main power cable supplied with the system to
the back panel of the Pump-Unit. Use the DC output
connector to connect the Pump-Unit to the bottom of the
Monitor. See Figure 3-1 on page 3-3.
2 Attach the Ethernet cable between the Pump-Unit and
Monitor.
 Grounding normally occurs through the AC power cord.
However for installation in rooms that fall in category 2
(IEC 60364-7-710), the back of the Pump-Unit is equipped
with a standard grounding terminal (to achieve equipoten-
tiality) which can be connected to a local earth point.
WARNING
For noninvasive monitoring, the EV1000 Monitor must
be powered by the Pump-unit using the EV1000 NI
Power Cable.
WARNING
Shock hazard: Do not attempt to connect/disconnect
system cables while hands are wet. Ensure that hands
are dry prior to disconnecting system cables.
WARNING
Only use ClearSight Finger Cuffs, Heart Reference
Sensor and other EV1000 Noninvasive System
accessories, cables and or components that have been
supplied and labeled by Edwards. Using other
unlabeled accessories, cables and or components may
affect patient safety and measurement accuracy.
WARNING
Use of accessories, sensors, and cables other than
those specified may result in increased electromagnetic
emissions or decreased electromagnetic immunity.
WARNING
Do not use the Ethernet cable to connect anything to
the Pump-Unit other than the monitor.
WARNING
All non Edwards IEC/EN 60950 equipment, including
printers, must be positioned no closer than 1.5 meters
to the patient’s bed, the operating table and persons
touching the patient.
WARNING
Do not obstruct the EV1000 Clinical Platform NI
ventilation openings.
CAUTION
Do not use any damaged system components. Use of a
damaged system component may result in inaccurate
measurements or may damage the EV1000 Clinical
Platform NI.
CAUTION
Do not expose the EV1000 Clinical Platform NI to
extreme temperatures.
CAUTION

any external device, refer to the device's instruction
manual for complete instructions. Verify proper
operation of the system before clinical use.
CAUTION
Do not use the EV1000 Monitor in environments where
strong lighting makes the LCD screen difficult to view.
WARNING
Make sure the EV1000 Clinical Platform NI is securely
mounted, and that all cords and accessory cables are
appropriately arranged to minimize the risk of injury to
patients, users or the equipment. Refer to directions on
proper setup.
