The FPP is for use with a variety of different bed types and is therefore compatible with control boxes that use
an OpenBus™ interface.

Mounting instructions:
The FPP is intended for mounting at the head end of a bed in order for the patient to be able to see and operate it with an easy push of a button. After
use, it can easily be moved a short distance aside.
The FPP comes with a cable attached. The bottom part of the arm is prepared for mounting inside a bracket - fitting the diameter of the arm.
The bracket is not supplied by LINAK but must be designed and manufactured by the customer. It must fit the dimensions shown. A suggestion to
a design and dimensions of the fixation parts are shown below:
Possible bracket designDimensions lIllustration:
The FPP must be mounted in such a manner that it is secured against rotation. For this purpose the bracket end of the arm has 4 drilled holes - one of
the 4 holes must be secured via the bracket with a slotted set screw with cone point (pointed screw).
Otherwise it may slide away from the user when operated.
Recommendations
• The application manufacturer must ensure a proper installation of the FPP in the application which is convenient for the end user.
• To ensure proper activation, the lock above the housing must be properly locked by turning it clockwise.
• The application manufacturer must use the correct torque for the slotted set screw of the bracket to ensure a stable positioning of the FPP.
• The application manufacturer must consider the bracket position carefully. If the FPP is mounted on a moveable part, it will move and might touch the
patient or parts of the application. If, however, mounted on a fixed part, the FPP might not be within the reach of the patient.
• The end user must not apply a torque to the FPP housing of more than 8 Nm between the flexible arm and the panel.
• The end user must not bend the FPP arm to a radius smaller than 105 mm.
• The FPP must never be used as a handle for moving the application.
• The end user must be informed that the FPP must not be used for other purposes (such as table, handle) than intended.
• The end user must take care that the FPP does not touch items or persons when the application is moved.
Warnings
• The FPP must be placed readily accessible for the patient. Never let the FPP hand out of the bed.
• Never use the FPP as a handle.
• Do not use sharp devices to activate buttons on the FPP.
• Never use the FPP as support device. The FPP must not be used as table or notepad, nor can it be used to hang objects on.
