Operations & Maintenance Manual: Introduction
VIDEO MONITOR BUTTONS, ICONS, & CONNECTIONS
The digital, full-color GlideScope Video Monitor clearly displays the images transmitted from the camera in the video
laryngoscope. The front of the monitor includes the screen and a keypad with the buttons you use to operate the
system.
The back panel of the monitor includes the sockets and ports for connecting the power cord, the video cable,
an HDMI-to-DVI cable for external video display, and a USB flash drive. When a socket or port is not in use, it is
recommended that the rubber cap is inserted into the opening. This protects the exposed connectors from dust
and other contamination. The back of the video monitor also features a mounting plate fitting that allows you to
attach the monitor to a mobile stand or IV pole.
