Important Patient and Safety Information Introduction
PageWriter TC 70 Cardiograph Service Manual 1-15
Patient Interface Module (PIM)
Always put the cardiograph in Standby before replacing the Patient Interface Module
(PIM). Do not change the PIM while the cardiograph is in active use.
If using the optional, 16-lead PIM, always ensure that the leads connected to the Patient
Interface Module (PIM) are the same leads that are displayed on the cardiograph screen.
Printer
Do not pull on the paper while an ECG report is being printed. This can cause distortion of
the waveform and can lead to potential misdiagnosis.
Servicing the Cardiograph
Only qualified personnel may service the cardiograph or may open the cardiograph housing
to access internal cardiograph components. Do not open any covers on the cardiograph.
There are no internal cardiograph components that are serviced by the operator.
The Philips Medical Systems warranty is applicable only if you use Philips Medical
Systems approved accessories and replacement parts. See “Parts and Supplies” on page 5-1
for more information.
Software
Only install Philips Medical Systems software on the cardiograph. The installation or use of
software not approved by Philips Medical Systems is strictly prohibited and cardiograph
safety and performance are not guaranteed.
Touch Screen
Do not use sharp objects with the touch screen or apply excessive force to the touch screen.
Applying excessive force to the touch screen may result in breaking the touch screen
display and can cause sharp, jagged parts to expel to persons nearby.
Manual measurements of ECG intervals and magnitudes should be performed on printed
ECG reports only. Do not make manual measurements of ECG intervals and magnitudes on
the touchscreen display since these ECG representations are scaled.
