Welch Allyn Connex Spot Monitor - Ground Stud Connector; Basic Functional Verification

contain the open frame power supply, and the testing involves the manipulation of wiring
that carries 120 or 240 volts AC. Welch Allyn does not recommend HiPot / Dielectric
Withstand testing because of a potential stress on the insulation system, which could
cause premature failures.
Ground stud connector
The Connex Spot Monitor and the APM work surface are equipped with a ground stud
(equipotential terminal) for electrical safety testing, and to connect a potential
equalization conductor. To ensure use of the proper connector for safety testing, the
ground studs are recessed into the device and APM work surface housings. Do not use
“alligator” style clamps or connectors. The mating electrical connector requires self
assembly by crimping it to appropriate connecting leads.
The mating connector (Type POAG-KBT6DIN, order number 15.0010) consists of the
right-angled socket and insulator, as shown in the next figure. You can purchase the
mating connector and the crimping pliers from the manufacturer, Multi-Contact (

Basic functional verification
Basic functional verification checks
Note Calibration is available only with the service tool, Gold edition.
These tests verify basic functionality of the NIBP, SpO2, and thermometry parameters.
These tests support the requirements of routine preventive maintenance. However, they
are not a substitute for the complete functional tests available with the service tool, Gold
edition. Welch Allyn recommends using the service tool, Gold edition, to perform
preventive maintenance and verification of the device when completing a repair.
Basic functional verification tools
The list of tools below is what Welch Allyn uses to perform a basic device functionality
check. Most facilities use a device simulator or equivalent products to perform this test.
