INTRODUCTION
This section provides information for maintenance and servicing of the Recorder Module, M-REC.
The Recorder Module is a double width plug-in module designed for use with S/5 monitors. The
Recorder Module provides real time printing of waveform and numerical data, and trend data.
The S/5 Compact Monitos may include a built-in recorder. The built-in recorder is technically the
same as the Recorder Module.
NOTE: Printings on thermal paper may be destroyed when exposed to light, heat, alcohol etc. Take
a photocopy for archive.
NOTE: The Recorder Module, M-REC, cannot be used in the Extension Frame, F-EXT4.

2 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
2.1 Main components
2.1.1 Recorder board
The function of the recorder board is to establish an interface between the recorder unit and main
CPU board in the monitor. The three front panel keys are connected to the recorder unit via the
recorder board. The recorder unit and the recorder board are connected together with a small
connector board and 12-pin flex-strip cable.
External Communication
Communication with the main CPU board is via a +5 V CMOS level RS232 serial interface, with an
RS485 reset.
ResetThe differential RS485 reset from the module bus generates a Recorder Unit reset signal on the
Recorder Board. The Recorder Board also generates a power-up-reset, whose time constant is
approximately 0.1 second. The Recorder Unit reset signal is therefore active when either the
Module Bus RS485-reset or the power-up-reset is active.
+5 V priorityThe recorder unit supply voltage, +15 VREC, is switched on after +5 V is present.
Front panel keys The recorder board can read the three front panel keys and pass their status on to the main CPU
board.
For protect the keypad signals from static discharges, zener diodes and series resistors are used.
Separate pull-up resistors are not needed because pull-up resistors connecting the keypad input
signals to +5 V are fitted inside the recorder.

3 SERVICE PROCEDURES
3.1 General service information
Field service of the Recorder Module, M-REC, is limited to replacing faulty circuit boards or
mechanical parts. Faulty circuit boards should be returned to Datex-Ohmeda for repair.
Datex-Ohmeda is always available for service advice. Please provide the unit serial number, full
type designation, and a detailed description of the fault.
CAUTION Only trained personnel with appropriate equipment should perform the tests and
repairs outlined in this section. Unauthorized service may void warranty of the unit.
3.2 Service check
These instructions include complete procedures for a service check. The service check is
recommended to be performed after any service repair. However, the service check procedures can
also be used for determining possible failures.
The procedures should be performed in ascending order.
The instructions include a check form (Appendix A) which should be filled in when performing the
procedures.
The mark
the procedure.
The procedures are designed for monitors with S/5 monitor software of revision 01. However, most
of the procedures also apply to monitors, which contain some other monitor software
type/revision.
? in the instructions means that the check form should be signed after performing

1. Check internal parts:
• screws are tightened properly
• cables are connected properly
• EMC covers are attached properly (Rev. 02 ->)
• there are no loose objects inside the module
?
2.Check external parts:
• the front cover and the front panel sticker are intact
• the module box, latch and the spring locking pin are intact
?
•Reattach the module box and check that the latch moves properly.
3. Open the paper compartment hatch and take out the paper roll, if installed.
Remove any paper chaff from the paper compartment.
Clean the thermal printhead and the small glass window in front of the static brush with a
cotton swab dipped in isopropyl alcohol. Avoid contact with the rubber paper roller.
NOTE: Be careful to limit the application of alcohol to the thermal printhead and the
window.
Leave the paper compartment empty and close the hatch.
?
• Turn the monitor on and wait until the normal monitoring screen appears.
Configure the monitor screen so that all required parameters are shown, for example:
4. Plug in the Recorder Module. Check that the module goes in smoothly and locks up properly.
?
5. Press the RECORD WAVE key on the module front panel. Check that the message “Recorder:
Out of paper” appears on the screen.
?
6. Open the paper compartment cover. Check that the previous message changes to “Recorder:
Cover open”.
Install a paper roll and close the cover. Check that the message “Recorder: Cover open”
disappears from the screen.
?
7. Press the RECORD WAVE key again and check that the module starts recording the selected
waveforms. Press the STOP key on the module front panel to stop recording.
NOTE: If no recording appears, check that the paper roll is installed correctly - only one side
of the paper is printable.
Press the PRINT TRENDS key and check that the module starts recording graphical trends.
Wait until the recording stops.
?
8. Check that the quality of the recordings is acceptable.
?
9. Press the RECORD WAVE key again and this time wait until the recording stops. Check that
the length of the recorded waveform scale is 18.7 cm (±1.5 cm).
Change the paper speed setting to 1 mm/s:
Record/Print - Record Waveforms - Paper Speed - 1 mm/s
Press the RECORD WAVE key and wait until the recording stops. Check that the length of the
scale is now 3.0 cm (±0.5 cm).

10. Perform an electrical safety check and a leakage current test.
?
11. Check that the module functions normally after performing the electrical safety check.
?
12. Clean the module with suitable detergent.
?
• Fill in all necessary documents.
3.3 Disassembly and reassembly
Disassemble the Recorder Module, M-REC, in the following way. See figure 4.
1. Remove the two screws from the back of the module.
2. Pull the module box slowly rearward and detach it from main body. Be careful with the loose
latch and spring pin.
3. Open the recorder unit paper loading hatch. With a long blade screwdriver loosen the two
screws at the bottom of the recorder unit housing.
4. Disconnect the 50-pin connector from the back of the recorder unit and 5-pin ribbon
keypad connector from the recorder board.
The recorder unit and front panel frame can now be pulled out of the main body. The front panel
frame is pulled out of the recorder by pulling rearward.
The recorder board is attached to the metal chassis with four screws.
CAUTION The recorder board is fixed to the metal chassis at the factory in a definite position.
The recorder board and chassis must therefore not be separated.
To reassemble the module, reverse the order of the disassembly steps.
