Fluke Biomedical warrants this instrument against defects in materials and workmanship for one year from the date of
original purchase OR two years if at the end of your first year you send the instrument to a Fluke Biomedical service center
for calibration. You will be charged our customary fee for such calibration. During the warranty period, we will repair or at our
option replace, at no charge, a product that proves to be defective, provided you return the product, shipping prepaid, to
Fluke Biomedical. This warranty covers the original purchaser only and is not transferable. The warranty does not apply if
the product has been damaged by accident or misuse or has been serviced or modified by anyone other than an authorized
Fluke Biomedical service facility. NO OTHER WARRANTIES, SUCH AS FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE
EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED. FLUKE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, INCLUDING LOSS OF DATA, ARISING FROM ANY CAUSE OR THEORY.
This warranty covers only serialized products and their accessory items that bear a distinct serial number tag. Recalibration
of instruments is not covered under the warranty.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights that vary in different jurisdictions. Since
some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of an implied warranty or of incidental or consequential damages,
this limitation of liability may not apply to you. If any provision of this warranty is held invalid or unenforceable by a court or
other decision-maker of competent jurisdiction, such holding will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision.

Intended Use
The Product is an electronic signal source and
measurement device for verifying the electrical safety of
medical devices. The Product also provides ECG
simulation and performance waveforms to verify patient
monitors are performing within their operating
specifications.
The Product provides the following function categories:
• ECG Functions
• ECG-Performance Testing
The intended user is a trained biomedical equipment
technician who performs periodic preventative
maintenance checks on patient monitors in service. Users
can be associated with hospitals, clinics, original
equipment manufacturers and independent service
companies that repair and service medical equipment.
The end user is an individual, trained in medical
instrumentation technology.
This Product is intended to be used in the laboratory
environment, outside of the patient care area, and is not
intended for use on patients, or to test devices while
connected to patients. This Product is not intended to be
used to calibrate medical equipment. It is intended for
over the counter use.
Safety Information
In this manual, a Warning identifies conditions and
procedures that are dangerous to the user. A Caution
identifies conditions and procedures that can cause
damage to the Product or the equipment under test.
Warning
To prevent possible electrical shock, fire, or
personal injury, follow these guidelines:
•Use the Product only as specified, or the
protection supplied by the Product can
be compromised.
•Use only the mains power cord and
connector approved for the voltage and
plug configuration in your country and
rated for the Product.
•Do not connect the Product to a patient
or equipment connected to a patient. The
Product is intended for equipment
evaluation only. The Product must not be
used in diagnostics, treatment, or other
capacities where the Product could
touch a patient.

Users Manual
•Do not use test leads if they are
damaged. Examine the test leads for
damaged insulation, exposed metal, or if
the wear indicator shows. Check test
lead continuity.
•Examine the case before you use the
Product. Look for cracks or missing
plastic. Carefully look at the insulation
around the terminals.
•Make sure the ground conductor in the
mains power cord is connected to a
protective earth ground. Disruption of
the protective earth could put voltage on
the chassis that could cause death.
•Do not use an extension cord or adapter
plug.
•Do not use and disable the Product if it
is damaged.
•Do not use the Product around explosive
gas, vapor, or in damp or wet
environments.
•Do not touch voltages > 30 V ac rms, 42
V ac peak, or 60 V dc.
•Measure a known voltage first to make
sure that the Product operates correctly.
•Do not apply more than the rated
voltage, between the terminals or
between each terminal and earth ground.
• Remove the null post adapter from the
∅/Null jack after a test lead zero is
performed. The ∅/Null jack becomes
potentially hazardous during some of the
test conditions. Use only cables with
correct voltage ratings.
•Remove all probes, test leads, and
accessories that are not necessary for
the measurement.
•Keep fingers behind the finger guards on
the probes.
•Connect the common test lead before
the live test lead and remove the live test
lead before the common test lead.
•Use only current probes, test leads, and
adapters supplied with the Product.
•Do not use the 15-20 A adapter to supply
power to devices rated more than 15 A.
This can overload the installation.

Unpack the Product
•Replace the mains power cord if the
insulation is damaged or if the insulation
shows signs of wear.
•Comply with local and national safety
codes. Use personal protective
equipment (approved rubber gloves, face
protection, and flame-resistant clothes)
to prevent shock and arc blast injury
where hazardous live conductors are
exposed.
•Do not touch metal parts of the device
under test (DUT) while you do a test.
Some tests apply high voltage and high
current to the DUT with the DUT earth
connection open or closed.

How to Connect a DUT to the Product
The Product is intended for use with single-phase,
grounded power. It is not intended for dual, split-phase or
three-phase power configurations. It can be used with a
power system that supplies the correct voltages for
single-phase and is grounded, or is an isolated power
system.
Use the power cord for your country mains supply that is
not more than the voltage or power rating of the product.
Connect the cord into the power input connector and then
to the mains outlet.
How to Connect a DUT to the Product
You can connect a Device Under Test (DUT) a number of
different ways for a full electrical safety test. Figure
shows a DUT connected to the test receptacle, applied
parts posts, and a connection to the enclosure or
protective earth ground of the DUT.

How to Turn On the Product
Note
To make sure the high voltage indicator works,
look for it to illuminate at the power-up.
Push the power switch found on the left-side panel so the
“I” side of the ac power switch is down. The Product does
a series of self tests and then shows the message in
Figure when the self test has completed successfully.

How to Access the Product Functions
The self-test measures the ac mains input for correct
polarity, ground integrity and voltage level. The high
voltage indicator illuminates briefly during the self test. If
the polarity is reversed, the Product shows this condition
and sets the polarity to be reversed internally. If the
ground is open, the Product shows this fault. If the mains
voltage is too high or too low, the Product shows this fault
and does not continue until the supply voltage is
corrected and the Product power turned off and then on
again.
How to Access the Product Functions
For each test and setup function, the Product uses a
series of menus to access different Product tests and
setup variables. The example shown in Figure , the
Product shows different leakage current tests along the
bottom of the display. A More softkey lets you access
more menus related to the test. When you push a softkey
(F1 through F4) below a test name, the Product sets up
for or does the selected test.
For some tests, it will be necessary to set parameters
with the navigation buttons. In the example above, the
leakage parameter has next to it. This icon shows you
must push or to set its value. In this example, the
leakage current measurement changes between AC+DC,
AC only, or DC only. The applied parts indicator has on
the left end and on the right end. These icons show that
you must push and to set an applied part.

The three buttons along the right side of the display
() control the wiring of the Product’s
test receptacle for some electrical tests. The current
condition of these three buttons is shown along the right
edge of the display when these controls are active.
Figure 5 shows polarity is settable between normal,
reversed, and off. Neutral is also settable to closed or
open. Earth condition is not shown, which means it can
not be changed. Earth is internally opened while the
Product does this test.
