installation does not provide for a protective earth conductor,
disconnect the monitor from the power line and operate it on
battery power, if possible.
GE recommends the use of an Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS)
with the CIC Pro center. If a UPS is not used, improper shutdowns
of the system could result in the event of a power outage and
cause a lengthy disk scan procedure when the unit reboots. You
could also lose data in the event of a power outage if you do not
use a UPS.
All devices of a system must be connected to the same power
supply circuit. Devices which are not connected to the same
circuit must be electrically isolated when operated.
1-6CIC ProTM Clinical Information Center2026419-002D
Introduction: Safety information
WARNING
DISCONNECTION FROM MAINS — When disconnecting the
system from the power line, remove the plug from the wall outlet
first. Then you may disconnect the power cord from the device. If
you do not observe this sequence, there is a risk of coming into
contact with line voltage by inserting metal objects, such as the
pins of leadwires, into the sockets of the power cord by mistake.
WARNING
NETWORK INTEGRITY — The CIC Pro center resides on the
hospital’s computer network, and it is possible that inadvertent or
malicious network activity could adversely affect patient
monitoring. The integrity of the computer network is the
responsibility of the hospital.
WARNING
INTERFACING OTHER EQUIPMENT — Devices may only be
interconnected with each other or to parts of the system when it
has been determined by qualified biomedical engineering
personnel that there is no danger to the patient, the operator, or the
environment as a result. In those instances where there is any
element of doubt concerning the safety of connected devices, the
user must contact the manufacturers concerned (or other informed
experts) for proper use. In all cases, safe and proper operation
should be verified with the applicable manufacturer's instructions
for use, and system standards IEC 60601-1-1/EN 60601-1-1 must
be complied with.
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD — Do NOT use this equipment in the
presence of flammable anesthetics, vapors or liquids.
WARNING
DISCONNECTION FROM MAINS — When disconnecting the
system from the power line, remove the plug from the wall outlet
first. Then you may disconnect the power cord from the device. If
you do not observe this sequence, there is a risk of coming into
contact with line voltage by inserting metal objects, such as the
pins of leadwires, into the sockets of the power cord by mistake.
WARNING
ACCIDENTAL SPILLS — To avoid electric shock or device
malfunction, liquids must not be allowed to enter the device. If
liquids have entered a device, take it out of service and have it
2026419-002DCIC ProTM Clinical Information Center1-7
Introduction: Safety information
checked by a service technician before it is used again.
WARNING
ACCURACY — If the accuracy of any value displayed on the
screen or printed on a graph strip is questionable, first determine
the patient's vital signs by alternative means. Then, verify the CIC
Pro center and printer are working correctly.
WARNING
ALARMS — Do not rely exclusively on the audible alarm system
for patient monitoring. Adjustment of alarm volum e to a low level
or off during patient monitoring may result in a hazard to the
patient. Remember that the most reliable method of patient
monitoring combines close personal surveillance with correct
operation of monitoring equipment.
After connecting the monitor to the central station and/or nursealert system, verify the function of the alarm system. Repeat this
verification periodically, including a check of all connected
speakers.
CIC Pro center audible alarms will not sound for patients with
bedside monitoring devices configured to “Operating Room”
mode.
WARNING
DISPOSAL — Dispose of the packaging material, observing the
applicable waste control regulations and keeping it out of
children’s reach.
WARNING
LOSS OF MONITORING — If the monitoring at the CIC Pro
center is temporarily interrupted, alternate monitoring devices or
close observation of the patients must be used until the monitoring
function at the CIC Pro center is restored.
Indications of a loss of the monitoring function at the CIC Pro
center are as follows.
RED SCREEN indicates the CIC Pro center application is
restarting itself and patient monitoring at the CIC Pro center
is NOT occurring. The monitoring function at the CIC Pro
center will automatically resume in less than 30 seconds. No
user action is required.
BLUE SCREEN indicates the Windows

has a functional error and patient monitoring at the CIC Pro
1-8CIC ProTM Clinical Information Center2026419-002D
Introduction: Safety information
center is not occurring. If the CIC Pro center does not
automatically restart after 90 seconds, the monitoring
function at the CIC Pro center will not resume until you turn
off the power to the CIC Pro center and then turn the power
back on. The monitoring function should resume in
approximately 90 seconds
Once the monitoring function at the CIC Pro center has been
restored, you should verify the correct monitoring state and alarm
function.
WARNINGS
CIC Pro center V5.0.x is in-unit compatible with CIC Pro center
V4.0.x and V4.1.x. The CIC Pro center is not in-unit compatible
with CIC Pro center V3.1 or earlier and is not in-unit compatible
with any versions of Centralscope. Sharing of the same care unit
name across CIC Pro centers having incompatible software
versions can result in lost or corrupted telemetry alarm defaults
data and loss of audible alarms.
Both hardwire and telemetry beds are limited in the number of
remote view connections that can be supported.
Do not exceed a maximum of 15 CIC Pro centers in a single
logical care unit.
Attempting simultaneous displays of a patient monitor
(bedside or telemetry) at too many CIC Pro centers may cause
lost or intermittent communication between CIC Pro centers
and the patient monitor. This is evidenced by NO COMM or
intermittent communication conditions for the beds.
The maximum CIC Pro centers viewing a patient monitor can vary
depending on patient monitor capabilities and network design.
Do not load any software other than that specified by GE onto the
CIC Pro. Installation of software not specified by GE may cause
damage to the CIC Pro center or loss or corruption of data.
CAUTION
NEGLIGENCE — GE does not assume r esponsibil ity for damage
to the equipment caused by improperly vented cabinets, improper
or faulty power, or insufficient wall strength to support equipment
mounted on such walls.
CAUTION
MPSO — Do not use a multiple portable socket outlet (MPSO) for
a system because it could result in unacceptable enclosure leakage
currents.

Theory of operation
Functional description
The CIC Pro center application is designed to provide real-time patient data and
alarms for central nurses’ stations in hospitals. It can display real-time waveforms
and vital sign data, with visual and audible alarms, for up to 16 patients
simultaneously. The CIC Pro center supports both hardwired and telemetry data.
The CIC Pro center software allows users to select any bed on the Unity Network
MC network and display an expanded view of that bed’s real-time parameters and
waveforms. This expanded view also allows users to view and modify settings
within the care unit, and view a patient’s other data (including alarm histories,
graphic trends and tabular trends).
The user can configure the number of patients displayed by the system, and the
number of displayed waveforms per patient. Waveform colors are configurable.
Improper shut down of the CIC Pro center, causing lengthy disk scan
procedures on reboot.
Data loss.
All configuration data is stored, and is restored after a system power cycle or
software restart.
The CIC Pro center is connected to the Unity Network MC network via the Ethernet.
2-10CIC ProTM Clinical Information Center2026419-002D
Physiological data
Periodic data
Equipment overview: Theory of operation
CIC Pro centers trend two types of physiological data: periodic and episodic.
Periodic data is constantly updated. Data is sampled every two seconds to yield 30
samples per minute. The displayed value is the median of the 30 samples. It is
always the median of a one-minute time frame, regardless of the interval selected.
The interval is the time between values, not the time of the value itself. For example,
a five minute interval means one minute samples spaced five minutes apart, not five
minute samples, and not a median of the five one minute samples. Odd number
values are rounded down to the nearest even number.
If the calibration of the system clock changes (for example, daylight savings time),
the “time” for periodic data “slides” into the revised time. However, episodic data is
time-stamped and retains its original time.
Examples of periodic data include heart rate (HR) and blood pressure (BP).
Episodic data
Episodic data are events that are user, or system, generated. Examples of episodic
data include temperature (Temp) and non-invasive blood pressure (NBP).
File or data management
Log files
Log files generated by the CIC Pro center application, other associated applications
and the CIC Pro center operating system are used during system analysis, problem
diagnosis and troubleshooting. See “Log Files” on page 5-14 for more information
about log files.
RWHAT packets
All monitoring devices on the GE Unity Network periodically broadcast information
about themselves in “RWHAT” packets. Among other things, RWHAT packets
contain IP address, port number, name, and offered services information about each
device.
All monitoring devices listen for RWHAT packets, and maintain a database of
information about other devices on the network. When devices need to
communicate, the appropriate IP address information is obtained from the database,
Unity Network-protocol messages are created, and operating system services are
used to transmit the message on the network.
For example, when a CIC Pro center computer communicates with a telemetry
device, the telemetry device’s IP address is retrieved from the CIC Pro center
computer RWHAT database, the Unity Network messages are created, and the CIC
Pro center Windows operating system sends the messages to the telemetry device.
2026419-002DCIC ProTM Clinical Information Center2-11
Storage
Printing
Equipment overview: Theory of operation
The FD Data interface uses the Unity Network IX network to retrieve data from
the database.
Each bed is stored in a separate directory, containing one index file and many
record files.
The FD Page printout is a configurable, long-time-period overview of
waveform activity. It is activated by clicking the (print button) located in
the top right corner of the FD Page window.
The FD Strip printout is a quick snapshot of what is currently on the screen. It
is activated by clicking the (print button) while the FD Page is being
viewed.
There is a separate full disclosure printer selection fro m the main laser printer
selection on the setup page. Specifying a printer here does not advertise this
CIC Pro center as a print server on RWHAT (like the main laser selection). It is
used exclusively by the local FD system. A printer must be “Added” to the
operating system before it will show up in the drop-down list.
2-12CIC ProTM Clinical Information Center2026419-002D
Licensing
Full disclosure
Equipment overview: Theory of operation
All features and functions of the CIC Pro center are determined by the licenses
activated and running on each CIC Pro center. Licenses are specific to each
individual CIC Pro center’s serial number, are node locked, and cannot be used
(floated) by another CIC Pro center.
The CIC Pro center full disclosure (FD) system stores all waveform and parametric
data from a patient for up to 76 hours. This data can be randomly accessed later in a
static display that looks similar to the real-time display window. T o accomplish this,
every Unity Network waveform packet (4/sec) and every parameter packet (1 every
2 seconds) is stored on the CIC Pro center. In addition, one R WHAT packet and one
admit packet is stored every minute to help recreate the patient’s history.
Unlike an alarm history event stored at the bedside, which only stores a 10 second
snap shot surrounding the event, full disclosure allows the user to scroll back in time
(prior to the event and leading up to the event).
Behaviors or rules
Licensing
Installation
Incompatible wit h old F D system (prior to CIC Pro center v3.x).
Certain Unit Defaults are incompatible with CIC Pro center v3.x systems.
Start-up modes
Auto For All: Automatically detects admitted beds that are not currently storing
full disclosure data anywhere and attempts to start full disclosure on one of the
CIC Pro centers within the care unit. This works regardless of whether the bed
was admitted directly at the bedside or the CIC Pro center. Full disclosure
cannot be stopped on a particular bed until the bed is discharged.
Auto If Listed: Same as Auto For All, but only if the bed in question is entered
into the list on the FD Unit Defaults setup screen. All other beds are not storing
full disclosure data.
Manual Mode: Beds are not automatically storin g ful l disclosure data upon
admission. Users can manually start and stop full disclosure for a particular bed
by using a button located on the CIC Setup > Full Disclosure Defaults
window. All full disclosure data is deleted when full disclosure is stopped for a
bed. See the “CIC Pro Clinical Information Center Operator’s Manual” for
more information.
Support for up to 16 patients per CIC Pro center.
Stores 76 hours of data per patient regardless of license type. Licensing controls
amount of data that is viewable.
Unit Licensing Mode sets which type of licen se is requested. Supported types:
None (1 hour), 24, 48, 72 hours.
2026419-002DCIC ProTM Clinical Information Center2-13
Control
Equipment overview: Theory of operation
Failure to obtain a license results in one hour of viewable full disclosure.
Licensing information is stored with data, so restrictions follow data regardless
of where it is viewed, even if viewed in a different care unit with a different
Unit License Mode.
CIC Pro center master and full disclosure
NOTE
There is only one master CIC Pro center per care unit (with respect to full
disclosure). The CIC Pro center with the lowest IP address becomes the master.
CIC Pro center master perform the following activities in one minute increments:
Detects admitted (but not full disclosure data collection) beds within the care
unit, for Auto modes.
Assigns beds (for full disclosure acquisition) to CIC Pro centers within the care
unit.
Applies Multi-FD and Twin-Bed Rules.
Uses the FDSvr process to find the FULL DISCLO service, identifying CIC
Pro centers with full disclosure capability. The FULL DISCLO service is used
by the CIC Pro center master while searching for other CIC Pro centers to
query, control, and assign beds.
NOTE
The CIC Pro center master checks the software versions of the other CIC
Pro centers before trying to identify CIC Pro cen ters with full disclosure
capability . Software versions earlier than 2.5 are ignored.
Uses the LocateFD service (provided by FDSvr) to guarantee that the right CIC
Pro center is contacted if retrieving data while a multi-full disclosure condition
is occurring.
NOTE
A CIC Pro center will not act as master during the first minute after it starts up.
Instead, the latest data is first collected from the other CIC Pro centers on the
network, and this data determines which CIC Pro center becomes master.
Multiple masters on a network might occur, but only briefly (this will selfcorrect within a couple of minutes).
Minute rule or the Offline Storage setting
(see “Set the Full Disclosure Defaults” on page 4-45):
The Offline Storage setting determines the length of time the CIC Pro center will
maintain full disclosure data for a bed from which it has stopped receiving data (e.g.,
a NO COMM condition).
If the NO COMM condition ends within the Offline Storage setting time frame,
full disclosure data collection for the bed continues.
2-14CIC ProTM Clinical Information Center2026419-002D
Equipment overview: Theory of operation
If a NO COMM condition exceeds the Offline Storage setting time frame, all
data for the bed is deleted. If (while in Auto mode) the bed comes back online
(the NO COMM condition ends) after this point, the bed is reassigned as a new
and different bed.
When full disclosure starts up on a CIC Pro center, it determines when data was
last received from the assigned beds.
If the latest data for a bed:
Is not older than the Offline Storage setting, then full disclosure data
collection continues for the bed.
Is older than the Offline Storage setting, existing data associated with the
bed is deleted, and new data collection is started for the bed.
Multi-full disclosure rule
If multiple CIC Pro centers are running in a care unit, the Multi-full disclosure rule
allows the switching of full disclosure data collection from one CIC Pro center to
another, if a CIC Pro center goes offline (e.g., reboot, shutdown, etc.).
The following examples describe how the Multi-full disclosure rule works when
using two CIC Pro centers (CICA and CICB).
NOTE
In the examples, start up mode is Auto, and only one bed (BED1) is used.
Example 1:
719A
1.CICA goes offline and stops full disclosure data collection on BED1. This
causes CICB to begin full disclosure data collection on BED1.
NOTE
The master CIC Pro center detects CICA going offline, and switches full
disclosure data collection over to CICB, within a minute of the offline
event occurring.
2.CICA comes back online within the Offline Storage setting time frame, and
continues full disclosure data collection on BED1 again. At this point, CICA
and CICB are both collecting full disclosure data on BED1.
3.The Multi-full disclosure rule does not allow more than one CIC Pro center to
collect full disclosure data from the same bed at the same time--only the data
that goes the farthest back in time (CICA) is kept. Because of this, CICA
continues collecting full disclosure data on BED1, and CICB stops.
2026419-002DCIC ProTM Clinical Information Center2-15
Equipment overview: Theory of operation
Example 2:
1.CICA goes offline and stops collecting full disclosure data on BED1. This
causes CICB to begin collecting full disclosure data on BED1.
NOTE
The master CIC Pro center detects CICA going offline, and switches full
disclosure data collection over to CICB, within a minute of the offline
event.
2.CICA comes back online after exceeding the Offline Storage setting time
frame. Because of this, existing BED1 data is deleted from CICA, and the new
BED1 data collection begins on CICA. At this point, CICA and CICB are
BOTH collecting full disclosure data on BED1.
3.The Multi-full disclosure rule does not allow more than one CIC Pro center to
collect full disclosure data from the same bed at the same time (only the data
that goes the farthest back in time (CICB) is kept). Because of this, CICB
continues collecting full disclosure data from BED1, and CICA stops.
720A
NOTE
At every wake-up cycle (1 minute interval), the CIC Pro center master scans all
CIC Pro centers within the care unit to determine if more than one CIC Pro
center is collecting full disclosure data from the same bed (this can happen as
part of normal operation). If the master detects this condition, all CIC Pro
centers are instructed to stop collecting full disclosure data from the bed except
for the one CIC Pro center with the oldest data for the bed.
Combo mode (Twin-bed rule)
In combo mode:
1.Two beds are on the network: one is a hardwired bed, and the other is telemetry
bed. Both beds share the same name (e.g. BED), but '*' is appended to the
telemetry bed name (e.g. BED and BED*). Both beds represent the same
patient.
NOTE
If the CIC Pro center was not functioning in combo mode, these two beds
would be treated as distinct and separate.
2.Only the oldest bed data is kept. Data for the other bed is deleted.
3.No matter which data is kept, full disclosure data collection continues, and the
data is stored under the bed name, but without the '*'.
Combo mode is stopped (breaking combo) by discharging either
bed. If this happens, full disclosure data collection continues on
the undischarged bed, and the data is stored under the
undischarged bed name.
2-16CIC ProTM Clinical Information Center2026419-002D
Equipment overview: Theory of operation
NOTE
If the hardwired bed is discharged, '*' would again be included in the
name.
To follow are combo mode examples:
Combo Mode Example 1:
a.A hardwired bed BED is admitted and full disclosure data is collected.
b.A telemetry bed BED* is admitted and full disclosure data is collected.
T wo separate full disclosure data stores exist, one for each bed (possibly on
a different CIC Pro centers).
c.The two beds are put into combo mode. When this happens, BED data is
kept because it is older than BED* data, and BED* data is deleted. Full
disclosure data collection continues, and the data is stored under the name
BED.
714A
d.Combo is broken by discharging BED*. Full disclosure data collection
continues, with the data still stored under the name BED.
Combo Mode Example 2:
a.A hardwired bed BED is admitted and full disclosure data is collected.
b.A telemetry bed BED* is admitted and full disclosure data is collected.
T wo separate full disclosure data stores exist, one for each bed (possibly on
a different CIC Pro centers).
c.The two beds are put into combo mode. When this happens, BED data is
kept because it is older than BED* data, and BED* data is deleted. Full
disclosure data collection continues, and the data is stored under the name
BED.
d.Combo is broken by discharging BED. Full disclosure data collection
continues, and the data is now stored under the name BED*.

a.A telemetry bed BED* is admitted and full disclosure data is collected.
b.A hardwire bed BED is admitted and full disclosure data is collected. Two
separate full disclosure data stores exist, one for each bed (possibly on a
different CIC Pro centers).
c.The two beds are put into combo mode. When this happens, BED* data is
kept because it is older than BED data, and BED data is deleted. Full
disclosure data collection continues, and the data is stored under the name
BED*.
d.Combo is broken by discharging BED*. Full disclosure data collection
continues, and the data is still stored under the name BED.

Combo Mode Example 4:
a.A telemetry bed BED* is admitted and full disclosure data is collected.
b.A hardwired bed BED is admitted and full disclosure data is collected. T wo
separate full disclosure data stores exist, one for each bed (possibly on a
different CIC Pro center).
c.The two beds are put into combo mode. When this happens, BED* data is
kept because it is older than BED data, and BED data is deleted. Full
disclosure data collection continues, and the data is stored under the name
BED.
d.Combo is broken by discharging BED. Full disclosure data collection
continues, and the data is now stored under the name BED*.
Bed Name/IP Address Changes
The CIC Pro center tracks full disclosure data for individual beds using a
combination of the bed name and IP address.
717A
If a bed name changes during full disclosure data collection, information within the
data reflects the new name at the point the name change occurred.
If a bed IP address changes during full disclosure data collection, but the name does
not, it is interpreted as a new and different bed, and a new full disclosure data store
is created and utilized for the new bed.
2-18CIC ProTM Clinical Information Center2026419-002D
Unit Boundary
Equipment overview: Networking
If a bed goes offline, and another bed with the same name but a different IP address
comes online, it is interpreted as a new and different bed and a full disclosure data
store is created and utilized for it. However, the following conditions apply:
If the bed that went offline (with the original IP address) comes back online
within the Offline Storage setting time frame, the two beds continue to be
treated as separate, since the different IP addresses positively identify them as
distinct and separate.
If the bed that went offline (with the original IP address) does not come back
online within the Offline Storage setting time frame, the bed with the new IP
address is interpreted as a replacement for the bed with the original IP address.
In this case, the full disclosure data for the bed with the original IP address is
deleted, and full disclosure data collection continues, and the data is stored
under the bed with the new IP address only.
Each care unit operates independently with respect to full disclosure. The only
interaction is when displaying data across care units.
License mode: All beds within a care unit will have access to the same amount
of data storage (based on time) unless there is a failure to get a license (1 hour).
Can be different across different care units (e.g., UnitA-72hours, UnitB-None (1
hour).
Start-up mode: The same start-up rules apply to all beds within a care unit.
Default: The same full disclosure defaults are used on all CIC Pro centers
within a care unit.
Master: One per care unit.
Acquisition/Storage: The master CIC Pro center will only assig n beds wit hin
the care unit to CIC Pro centers within that care unit. At no time will data for a
bed be stored on a CIC Pro center in a different care unit.
Bed Unit Changes: If a bed changes it s care unit name during full disclosure
data collection, all data for the bed is deleted. The care unit where the bed
moved becomes responsible for the bed.
CIC Pro center Unit Changes: If a CIC Pro center changes its care unit name
during full disclosure data collection, all data for all beds being having full
disclosure data collected by that CIC Pro center is deleted. The care unit with
the original name is responsible for the beds.
Networking
Patient monitoring network
The CIC Pro center processes and displays real-time data acquired from up to 16
networked GE monitors or telemetry transmitters connected to the Unity Network.
When patient data is acquired from ApexPro telemetry transmitters (telemetry beds),
the data is transmitted to a telemetry receiver where it is then transferred to the Unity
Network via a wired connection. The CIC Pro center displays this telemetry bed
patient data along with the patient data acquired from other monitors.

60601-1 certified equipment which may not meet the leakage
requirements for patient care area equipment. The CIC Pro center
must not be located in the patient vicinity as a shock hazard may
exist, unless the medical electrical system standard, UL/IEC/EN
60601-1 is followed.
Failure to adequately ventilate the CIC Pro center may cause
equipment failure or improper operating conditions which may
endanger the patients being monitored.
CAUTION
The CIC Pro center uses an internal forced-air cooling system, but
most displays do not. The user must determine the heat dissipation
requirements of the selected display and provide for any required
cooling ventilation.
2026419-002DCIC ProTM Clinical Information Center3-3
Installation: Completing the pre-installation requirements
Environmental limits
The CIC Pro center operates reliably within normal office environmental limits.
Select a site which meets the following criteria:
Clean and reasonably free of excess dust. Dust accelerates system wear.
Well-ventilated and away from sources of heat.
Away from sources of vibration or physical shock.
Electromagnetic fields and electrical noise
The CIC Pro center should be isolated from strong electromagnetic fields and
electrical noise produced by electrical devices such as:
Elevators
Copy machines
Air conditioners, large fans
Large electric motors
Radio and TV transmitters
High frequency security devices
High-load medical devices (e.g. imaging, defibrillators, etc.)
Clearance and airflow
Access space
Keep the CIC Pro center ventilation openings free of obstructions. The CIC Pro
center physical location should provide at least the following minimal ventilation
clearances:
Minimum ventilation clearance
Front 20.5 centimeters (8 inches)
Back20.5 centimeters (8 inches)
1
Bottom
1 centimeter (3/8 inches)
1. The vent holes in the bottom of the unit must not be obstructed. A minimum
airspace of 1 centimeter (3/8 inches) must be provided between the vent holes
and the supporting surface. When installed with the bottom vent holes down, the
unit must be on a hard flat surface with the bottom feet intact.
Do not remove the bottom feet or operate with the bottom of the unit on a
carpeted surface.
If installed with the vent holes in the bottom surface to the side (standing on a
side, or “vertical” installation), a minimum of 1 centimeter (3/8 inches)
clearance must be provided between the vent holes and the adjacent surface.
WARNING
Ample access for AC power cord disconnect (from the wall outlet,
or from the back of the unit) is vital to provide positive AC power
disconnection for service or in the event of emergency.

Physical specifications
See “Physical specifications” on page A-6
Verify care unit software and hardware compatibility
WARNING
BEFORE INSTALLATION — Compatibility is critical to safe
and effective use of this device. Please contact your local sales or
service representative prior to installation to verify equipment
compatibility.
When installing a CIC Pro center into a care unit, you need to verify that the CIC
Pro center’s hardware and software are compatible with care unit’s operating
environment. See the “CIC Pro Clinical Information Center V5.0 What’s in this Release Instructions” shipped with the product and with the software upgrade and
update kits.
Verify proper electrical grounding
Duplex power outlet
A properly grounded duplex power outlet is required for each CIC Pro center.
Additional outlets may be required to accommodate connected peripheral
equipment. The power outlet must be installed in an approved junction box. Use
only a three-prong, polarized, hospital-grade power outlet to accept the three-prong
polarized CIC Pro center power plug.
Grounding system
WARNING
SHOCK HAZARD — The CIC Pro center and all peripheral
equipment must be adequately grounded or a shock hazard may
exist.
Do not use plug adapters that defeat the grounding capability of
the three-prong power plug. An ungrounded electrical device
presents a potentially severe and dangerous shock hazard.
The grounding pin of all power outlets and all exposed metal parts (beds, radiators,
water pipes, etc.) in any patient area should be electrically connected together. This
common ground point should be connected to the nearest equipotential ground
through a bonded grounding system, or with a 10 AWG stranded copper grounding
cable.
The equipotential ground point should be as close to earth ground potential as
possible. If a bonded grounding system is not available, the ground pin of each
2026419-002DCIC ProTM Clinical Information Center3-5
Installation: Completing the pre-installation requirements
power outlet must be individually connected to a central grounding point. Do not
jumper from ground pin-to-ground pin of the outlets.
The grounding system must not carry current, such as a grounded neutral, since the
current flow will produce potential differences along the ground path. These
potential differences are a shock hazard source for equipment users and patients.
Do NOT use conduit as a ground conductor. Plastic (PVC) piping or fittings used in
the conduit runs can break the electrical connection to ground, resulting in potential
shock hazards.
The electrical grounding system should be connected to an earth ground. If this is
not possible, then a good ground reference, such as a metal water pipe, or an
electrically-conductive building component, should be used. It is more important
that all grounded objects in the patient area are at the same ground potential rather
than at earth ground potential.
Verify the use of an un-interruptible power supply (UPS)
WARNING
If power to the CIC Pro center is lost, patient monitoring
information will no longer be displayed or stored.
UPS recommendations
UPS run-times and options
GE recommends using an un-interruptible power supply (UPS) with the CIC Pro
center.
Without a UPS, power line outages may result in:
Improper shut down of the CIC Pro center, causing lengthy disk scan
procedures on reboot
Data loss.
Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for installing the UPS.
See “Optional components” on page 8-9 for a listing of UPS units available for the
CIC Pro center.
WARNING
Connect the UPS to the CIC Pro center(s) and display monitor(s)
only. Do not connect printers or other devices to a UPS, as such
devices may shorten estimated run-times. If AC line power is not
restored before UPS run-time is exceeded, the CIC Pro center
shuts down and patients will not be monitored.
The uninterruptable power supply (UPS) run-times are affected by the following
conditions:

WARNINGS
CIC Pro center V5.0 is in-unit compatible with CIC Pro center
V4.0.x, but is not with versions of CIC Pro center V3.1 or earlier
and is not in-unit compatible with any versions of Centralscope.
Sharing of the same care unit name across central stations having
incompatible software versions can result in lost or corrupted
telemetry alarm defaults data and loss of audible alarms.
2026419-002DCIC ProTM Clinical Information Center3-7
Installation: Installing the equipment in the care unit
Both hardwire and telemetry beds are limited in the number of
remote view connections that can be supported.
Do not exceed a maximum of 15 CIC Pro centers in a single
logical care unit.
Attempting simultaneous displays of a patient monitor
(bedside or telemetry) at too many CIC Pro centers may cause
lost or intermittent communication between CIC Pro centers
and the patient monitor. This is evidenced by NO COMM or
intermittent communication conditions for the beds.
The maximum CIC Pro centers viewing a patient bedside monitor
can vary depending on bedside monitor capabilities and network
design.
WARNING
Only external devices specifically designed to be connected to the
CIC Pro center, or approved by GE for use with the CIC Pro
center, should be connected, as specified in this manual or as
otherwise specified by the manufacturer.
A shock hazard may exist if external devices are connected
differently from described in this manual, or as directed by the
manufacturer.
External equipment must be connected to the CIC Pro center only
by qualified biomedical engineering personnel.
When using keyboard/video/mouse (KVM) switching devices
with the CIC Pro, only the keyboard and mouse should be
switched through the KVM. The video for each CIC Pro should be
displayed on its own monitor. Failure to do so may result in
delayed recognition of alarm events.
WARNING
SITE REQUIREMENTS — Do not route cables in a way that they
may present a stumbling hazard.
For devices installed above the user, adequate precautions must be
taken to prevent them from dropping on the user.
CAUTIONS
All external cabling used with the CIC Pro center must be routed
so it does not interfere with access to, or operation of, the CIC Pro

CIC Pro center full disclosure license management setup
Every CIC Pro center with version 5.0.x software has the ability to store 16 beds of
full disclosure (FD) data for one hour without a license. A CIC Pro center with the
Full Disclosure option and version 5.0.x software has the ability to store up to 16
beds for 72 hours with the appropriate licenses and license settings.
When operating two CIC Pro centers within the same care unit, with one having the
Full Disclosure option, and the other without: It is necessary to turn full disclosure
OFF on the CIC Pro center without the full disclosure option, to prevent a conflict
between the two different storage capacities of the CIC Pro centers.
To turn off full disclosure on the CIC Pro center without the full disclosure option,
you must set the full disclosure License type to none. See “Set the Full Disclosure
Defaults” on page 4-45.
