Refer to the Clinical Information Center operator's manual for instructions on operation.
Revision B Dash 2000 Patient Monitor 1-5
227 499 06 (US/E)
THE BASICS: Components
Optional Laser Printer
An optional laser printer (not shown) connects to the central station. It is identified on the Dash monitor as LASER when choosing a graph locat ion. (Refer to the Monitor Setup chapter for more details.)
When you choose the laser printer as the print window location, it can print any printable information window when it is displayed and the GRAPH GO / STOP key is pressed.
When you choose the laser printer as the manual graph location, it will print the waveforms as selected in Graph Setup when the GRAPH GO / STOP key is pressed. It prints 20 seconds of waveforms per page in a cascade format when the graph speed is set for 25 millimeters per second. There will be a delay of approximately one minute until the first page is printed, then it will run until all patient data is printed.
NOTE: The one-minute delay does not mean the data printed is delayed. It
just takes that long for the information to be processed by the laser printer. The amount of data printed will increase and the delay will be longer if a speed slower than 25 mm/s is chosen.
When you choose the laser printer as the alarm graph location, it will provide 20 seconds of waveforms per page in a cascade format, but again, there will be a delay of one minute until the first page is printed.

004
Location of Control Keys
The monitor will be powered at all times when plugged into AC power. This key turns the monitoring function ON and OFF. When the monitor is turned off, patient monitoring is discontinued; however, patient data already accumulated is retained and the battery charging function continues.
NOTES:To avoid unintentional switchoff, the POWER key must be pressed
at least 0.25 seconds to switch off the monitor. In the event of a lockup, you can force a switch-off by pressing the
POWER key for five seconds.
Graph Go/Stop
Press this key once to start a graph run of the patient’s data. Press a second time to stop. If pressed during an alarm graph run, the graph will run continuously until GRAPH GO/STOP is pressed again. Note that an alarm graph run is usually an automatic 20-second timed graph.
This key is also used to print a copy of non-real time screens. We refer to these as information windows. Not all information windows can be printed. If a printable information window is displayed, press GRAPH GO/ STOP to print a copy. If a nonprintable information window is displayed, pressing the GRAPH GO/STOP key prints patient data as if the information window was not displayed.

This key starts one noninvasive blood pressure measurement. It can also be used at any time to stop a measurement in process.
NOTE: In Operating Room Mode, if an auto mode time is set in monitor
defaults, pressing the NBP GO/STOP key starts the auto mode feature.
This key zeroes the invasive pressure line. The pressure can also be zeroed, if desired, with a menu option in the pressure menu. (If your monitor does not have the invasive pressure option, this key will be present, but will not affect the operation of the monitor.)
This key silences a current, audible alarm for 60 seconds. Only new alarms of equal or higher level interrupt the silence command. Press the key twice during an alarm to start an alarm pause (five minutes for Adult-ICU, 3 minutes for Neonatal-ICU). Press the key again during the alarm pause to reactivate alarms.
If no alarm is sounding, press this key to start an alarm pause. If your monitor is set up for Operating Room mode, you have three levels of
alarm pause:
Press once (if an alarm is sounding you must press twice) to start a 5-
minute alarm pause; Press again to start a 15-minute alarm pause;
Press again to start a permanent alarm pause;
Press again to reactivate alarms.

THE BASICS: Turning Power On
AC Power
Normal Mode
Standby Mode
The Dash 2000 monitor will be powered at all times when using AC power (there is no AC power switch). The monitor is preset at the factory for a specific AC voltage. Before applying power, be sure the power requirements match your power supply. Refer to the label on the back of the unit for the voltage and current requirements. Refer also to Power Requirements in the Safety chapter of this manual.
When all cables are properly connected, press the POWER button to turn the monitor on. After approximately 10 seconds you should see a display on the screen. The AC indicator on the front panel will light when using AC power.
Two modes of operation are available when using AC power. The monitor will enter "NORMAL" mode when plugged into AC power and the monitor is turned ON. Normal mode operation provides all functional capabilities of the monitor including vital signs monitoring, communications, and battery charging.
The monitor will enter "STANDBY" mode when plugged into AC power and the monitor is turned OFF. The battery charging function is the only function provided when the monitor is off.

Revision B Dash 2000 Patient Monitor 1-11
227 499 06 (US/E)
THE BASICS: Battery Power
Battery Power
The monitor has a built-in battery pack to provide power to the monitor whenever AC power is interrupted. The bat tery pack is composed of ten nickel cadmium batteries. The battery pack is generally referred to as the ”battery.”
You must charge the battery before using it. There is no external charger. The battery is charged when the monitor is connected to AC power. A fully depleted battery will take 1 hour when the monitor is switched off, and up to 3 hours when the monitor is switched on, to fully charge. To assure a fully charged battery which is ready for use, we recommend that the monitor be plugged into AC power whenever it is not in use.
Depending on usage, you can get 2 to 3 hours of battery power on a new, fully-charged battery on a color monitor, and up to 4 hours on a monochrome monitor. NBP and SpO2 monitoring and the usage of the recorder will drain battery power faster than other parameters.
NOTE: A "Battery Low" message at the top of the screen and an audible
system alarm indicate 10 minutes of battery life remaining. You should connect the monitor to an AC power source when the message is displayed.

Revision B Dash 2000 Patient Monitor 1-13
227 499 06 (US/E)
THE BASICS: Battery Power
Battery Conditioning
To obtain the greatest possible battery performance and to keep the fuel gauge up to date, the battery needs to be conditioned every 3 months or after 250 discharge cycles.
There are three battery conditioning modes: automatic, user-controlled, and manual.
automatic mode: Conditioning starts automatically when the time limit (3 months) or the discharge limit (250 cycles) is reached. The automatic start time for the conditioning cycle is defined with the softkey AUTO START AT . (Should there be a loss of AC power, all the user has to do is plug in the power cord.)
user-controlled mode: If the time limit or discharge limit is reached, the monitor displays the status message "BATTERY NEEDS COND". It is up to the user to start the conditioning as a result of this message.
manual mode: In this mode the user is required to manually start the conditioning process. The time limit or discharge limit is not observed and has no effect. The conditioning process is started from the service menu.
In the user-controlled and manual modes, conditioning is started using this menu sequence: MONITOR SETUP > SERVICE MODE > BATTERY SERVICE > START CONDITION (notify service!).

Battery Capacity Gauge
The battery capacity gauge or bar graph indicates the battery charge capacity. The gauge is drawn as a vertical, rectangular outline which is filled in from bottom to top proportional with the battery charge level.
The full rated capacity of the type of battery installed will be represented on the gauge by a dashed outline. The maximum charge level for the cell currently installed in the monitor is represented by a solid outline on the gauge. As the battery ages-and its charging capacity becomes diminished­this line becomes a smaller percentage of the full rated capacity shown by the solid line. Refer to the following examples:

Menus
Menu Timeout
A menu, like the name implies, is a selection of available options. These options are displa yed at the bottom of the screen and are accessed with the Trim Knob control. Some menus may have some empty spaces. These spaces are available for future software enhancements.
There are two important menu options to note. One or both of these options
is found in every menu with the exception of the Main Menu.
MAIN MENU
This option will always take you back to the Main Menu. Use it when you are finished making adjustments or accessing stored information.
PREV MENU
This option allows you to back up to the previous menu when a subordinate menu is displayed.
Think of these as escape or exit options.
The monitor automatically returns to the Main Menu (refer to the figure below) when you have displayed another menu and have not used the Trim Knob for 5 minutes (default time). This is a Monitor Defaults setting (SETUP DEFAULT DISPLAY) which can be set for a longer period of time or no timeout at all. Some menus, such as Vital Signs and trends, are not affected by the timeout setting. You must exit them using one of the exit options described above.

THE BASICS: Software Features
Trim Knob Control Operation When Setting Alarm Limits
Limits which trigger alarms for monitored parameters can be modified. You should refer to the specific parameter chapter for details. When setting alarm limits, the following information is helpful and applies to most parameters:
The Trim Knob control will always increase (or decrease) the displayed number in increments of one for the first five numbers. Thereafter, it increases (or decreases) in increments of five. There may be situations where the limit you wish to modify does not fall into this incremental sequence. For example, the low heart rate limit default is 50. For your patient, a limit of 44 is desired.
1. Open the HR LOW LIMIT popup menu. The number 50 is displayed.
2. Rotate the Trim Knob control until the number reads 45. It will follow this sequence: 49, 48, 47, 46, 45. The next rotation will take the number
to 40 which, in this instance, is too low.
3. Close the popup menu when the number is 45 and immediately open it again.
4. Rotate the Trim Knob control to 44. Closing the popup menu and then
reopening it allows you to reset again in increments of one.
The same principle applies when setting limits for other parameters.

Graphing (Printing)
THE BASICS: Graphing (Printing)
Devices
Manual Graphs
You can print displayed information using the Dash 2000 monitor's built-in writer or, via the network, using an optional writer and/or an optional laser printer. This manual refers to a DDW as a writer and a laser printer as a printer.
The writer may be the Dash 2000 monitor's built-in writer or a stand-alone writer connected to another monitor. Your system may include one or more central stations. Some central stations come equipped with a built-in writer. A writer can also be connected to the central station. The optional laser printer always connects to a central station.
Patient waveforms and most information windows can be printed. You choose which waveforms you want to print, to which device you want to print, a duration time, and the speed at which manual graphs are printed. These menu options are all found in the Graph Setup menu. Refer to the Monitor Setup chapter for details.
Waveforms and information windows are printed when the GRAPH GO/ STOP key is pressed. The message ”GRAPHING MANUAL” or ”PRINTING WINDOW” is displayed when a manual graph is requested. There is a setting in the Graph Setup Menu which allows you to set a time for how long a manual graph runs (e.g., continuous, 20 seconds, etc.).
NOTES:A one millivolt ECG signal at normal (1X) size equals 10
millimeters on the graph paper.
Exclusive Graph Control
Alarm Graphs
All waveforms on a graph strip begin with 10 seconds of delayed data. The header information printed with the waveforms is real­time data.
Once a manual graph is started, it can only be stopped from the same source from which it was star ted or from the Graph Stop key on the writer. This is to prevent two people at different sources starting a graph at the same time, which results in one turning the graph on and the other turning the graph off.
A graph strip is automatically printed when a Crisis or Warning alarm occurs. An arrhythmia alarm graph will run until a normal sinus rhythm is again detected or you manually stop the graph. Any other alarm graph runs for 20 seconds or until you manually stop it.
NOTE: To convert an arrhythmia alarm graph to a manual graph, you
must stop the graph using the Graph Stop key on the writer and immediately restart the graph.
In Operating Room mode and Neonatal-ICU mode, the alarm graphing default is off, in Adult ICU mode, it is on. There is a menu option in the Graph Setup menu (ALARM GRAPH) to turn this feature on and off. This can be saved as a Monitor Default.

0-45 (PA, CVP, UVC, RA, LA, ICP)
Following is a list of all graphing messages and what they indicate: SAVING— the device to which you want to print is busy or for some reason
inoperable. If it is an alarm graph, 20 seconds of data is saved until it can print or another alarm graph occurs. The monitor only saves for print the most recent alarm data. A manual graph is saved until you press the GRAPH GO / STOP key or an alarm graph occurs.
GRAPHING MANUAL— a manual graph is in progress. GRAPHING ALARM— a crisis or warning alarm has occurred. An
automatic graph is run. PRINTING WINDOW— a manual graph of a printable information window
is in progress. PAPER OUT—the writer/printer needs paper or a writer door is open.
Graph Scale
Graph Header
The graph header which is printed with all patient waveforms, includes:

Putting the Monitor Into Operation
Monitor Installation and Connection
WARNING
Before using the monitor for the first time, please read the information given in chapter 2 ”Safety”.
The operating position does not influence the performance of the monitor in any way.
Choose a location which affords a n unobstructed view of the monitor
screen and easy access to th e operating controls. Set up the device in a location which affords sufficient ventilation. The
ventilation openings of the device must not be obstructed (by external equipment, walls or blankets, for instance). The ambient conditions specified in the Technical Specifications chapter must be ensured at all times.
The Dash 2000 monitor is designed to comply with the requirements of
IEC 60601/EN 60601. Using the power cord supplied with the monitor, connect it to the power
line (the illustration on page 1-3 shows the power input). Use only the original cord or an equivalent one.
WARNING
The Dash 2000 must be connected to a pro perly installe d p owe r outlet with protective earth contacts only. If the installation does not provide for a protective earth conductor, disconnect the monitor from the power line and operate it on battery power.
For measurements in or near the heart we recommend connecting the
monitor to the potential equalization system. Use the green and yellow potential equalization cable and connect it to the pin labeled with the
symbol.
Our customer service engineers can be called in to connect the Dash
2000 to a central station and to the nurse-call system.
WARNING
For safety reasons, all connector s for patient cables and sensor leads (with the exception of temperature) are designed to prevent inadvertent disconnection, should someone pull on the leads. Do not route cables in a way that they may present a stumbling hazard. Do not install the monitor in a location where it may drop on the patient. All consoles and brackets used must have a raised edge at the front.

THE BASICS: Putting the Monitor Into Operation
Performance Check
Turn on the device with the power switch at the front. The green AC
ON indicator lights up (page 1-11). The monitor display appears after approximately 10 seconds.
After power up and during operation the Dash 2000 runs automatic self­tests. When a malfunction is detected, the monitor displays a message and a prompt, asking whether the user wishes to continue operation.
WARNING
If this message appears during operation, it is the physician’s responsibility to decide whether the unit is still suitable for patient monitoring. As a general rule, monitoring with this unit should continue only in extremely urgent cases and under the supervision of a physician. The unit must be repaired before being used again on a patient. If this message appears after power up, the unit must be repaired before being used on a patient.
WARNING
After connecting the monitor to a central station and/or nurse­call system, verify the function of the alarm system. This can be done, for instance, by temporarily changing one of the alarm limits to initiate an alarm.

Warnings
WARNINGS
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 checked by a service technician before it is used again.
ACCURACY — If the accuracy of any value displayed on the monitor, central station, or printed on a graph strip is questionable, determine the p atient's vital signs by alternative means. Verify that all equipment is working correctly.
ALARMS — Do not rely exclusively on the audible alarm system for patient monitoring. Adjustment of alarm volume to a low level or off during patient monitoring may result in a hazard to the patient. Remember that the most reliable metho d of patient monitoring combines close perso nal surve illance w ith correct operation of monitoring equipment.
After connecting the monitor to the central station and/or nurse-call system, verify the function of the alarm system.
BEFORE USE — Before putting the system into operation visually inspect all connecting cables for signs of damage. Damaged cables and connectors must be replaced immediately.
Before using the system, the operator must verify that it is in correct working order and operating condition.
Periodically, and whenever the integrity of the product is in doubt, test all functions.
CABLES — Route all cables away from patient's throat to avoid possible strangulation.
CONDUCTIVE CONNECTIONS — Extreme care must be exercised when applying medical electrical equipment. Many parts of the man/machine circuit are conductive, such as the patient, connectors, electrodes, transducers. It is very important that these conductive parts do not come into contact with other grounded, conductive parts when connected to the insulated patient input of the device . Such contact w ould bridg e the patient's insulation and cancel the protection provided by the insulated input. In particular, there must be no contact of the neutral electrode and ground.

227 499 06 (US/E)
SAFETY: For Your Safety
WARNINGS
DEFIBRILLATION — Do not come into contact with patients during defibrillation. Otherwise serious injury or death could result.
DISCHARGE TO CLEAR PATIENT DATA — When admitting a new patient, you must clear all previous patient data from the system. To accomplish this, disconnect patient cables (if you use a Tram module be sure the module is locked in place in the Tram-rac housing), then do a discharge.
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 inse rting me tal o bje cts, such as the pins of leadwires, into the sockets of the power cord by mistake.
DISPOSAL — Dispose of the packaging material, observing the applicable waste control regulations and keeping it out of children's reach.
EXPLOSION HAZARD — Do not use this equipment in the presence of flammable anesthetics, vapors or liquids.
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.

SAFETY: For Your Safety
WARNINGS
INTRACARDIAC APPLICATION — When applying devices intracardially, electrically conductive contact with parts connected to the heart (pressure transducers, metal tube connections and stopcocks, guide wires, etc.) must be avoided in all cases.
To prevent electrical contact, we recommend the following:
always wear isolating rubber gloves,
keep parts that are conductively connected to the heart
isolated from ground,
if possible, do not use tube fittings or stopcocks made of
metal.
During intracardiac application of a device, a defibrillator and pacemaker whose proper functioning has been verified must be kept at hand.
LEAKAGE CURRENT TEST — When interfacing with other equipment, a test for leakage current must be performed by qualified biomedical engineering personnel before using with patients.
PATIENT AMBULATION — A patient must be assisted if ambulating with a roll-stand mounted monitor.
POWER SUPPLY — The device must be connected to a properly installed power outlet with protective earth contacts only. If the installation does not provid e for a protective earth conductor, disconnect the monitor from the power line and operate it on battery power, if possible.
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 oper ated (electrically isolated RS232 interface).
PROTECTED LEADWIRES — Only use protected leadwires and patient cables with this monitor. The use of unprotected leadwires and patient cables creates the potential for making an electrical connection to ground or to a high voltage power source which can cause serious injury or death to the patient.

About Admitting
ADMIT DISCHARGE: About Admitting
You Must Admit to Activate Alarms
Monitors are Used in Different Ways
Admitting a patient to the monitor is important. Audible alarms are off and there will be no alarm graphs and alarm history until the monitor is in
the admit mode. The following message is displayed near the middle of the screen to alert you to admit your patient:
ALL ALARMS OFF
ADMIT PATIENT TO ACTIVATE ALARMS
What you do to admit a patient to the monitor depends on how the monitor is used. We have defined four ways in which the monitor is used:
STANDARD— This application uses a monitor mounted in the room. It does not accommodate telemetry. A network connection is not required unless you have a central station.
ROVER— With this application you can move, or ”rove,” the monitor to the patient, rather than moving the patient to a monitored room. It does not accommodate telemetry. A network connection is not required unless you have a central station.
COMBO— This application provides the option to acquire ECG data from either the monitor or from a telemetry receiver cabinet. This ECG data acquisition capability enhances basic telemetry monitoring by providing additional access to all of the available parameters from the monitor. A network connection is required.
ROVER COMBO— This application combines the mobility feature of Rover monitoring with the telemetry compatibility of Combo monitoring. A network is required.
It is determined at the time of installation which application applies. At that time a menu option in the service mode is used to set your monitor for one of the above applications. The information that is necessary for successful admission to the monitor and the network is then provided in the Admit Menu.

ADMIT DISCHARGE: About Admitting
Guidelines When Doing Combination Monitoring
For Which Application is the Monitor Set?
Here are some guidelines to remember when doing combination (Combo and Rover Combo) monitoring:
When monitoring ECG from telemetry, ECG limits and arrhythmia
alarm levels are not your monitor defaults but are the telemetry defaults or as modified at the central station. You can, however, adjust these settings at the monitor.
When monitoring ECG from telemetry, the alarm pause feature (if
available on your transmitter) is honored at the monitor. If you switch ECG monitoring from telemetry to monitor, the ECG
limits, arrhythmia alarm levels, and display formats will be recalled from Monitor Defaults.
If you want to know the application for which the monitor is set, follow these steps:
1. Select MORE MENUS option from the Main Menu.
2. Select MONITOR SETUP.
3. Select SOFTWARE SUMMARY. An information window is displayed. (See the figure below.)

Smart Alarms
ALARM CONTROL: Smart Alarms
Alarm processing is not activated until the monitor has detected valid physiologic data from the patient. This allows you to admit a patient and proceed with necessary patient connections without bothersome alarm tones. If during monitoring a new parameter is added, for example, pulse oximetry, the alarm processing for that parameter will not be active until valid physiologic data is detected.
NOTE: To properly use the smart alarm feature, be sure to remove all
patient cables to the monitor prior to discharging. This assures that no data is seen after a discharge.
WARNING
After an interruption of the electric power supply (e.g. for an
emergency power test) it is necessary to check whether the
alarm processing is active again and whether asystole has
occurred while the power supply was interrupted.
4-2 Dash 2000 Patient Monitor Revision B
227 499 06 (US/E)
Alarm Structure
ALARM CONTROL: Alarm Structure
The alarm structure of the monitor is divided into two classifications:
Patient Status Alarms and
System Status Alarms.
Within each classification there are levels which correlate to how severe the condition is that is causing the alarm. The levels and how the monitor responds to each are described below. Patient status alarms can, in most cases, be moved from one level to another. Refer to this chapter, Arrhythmia Alarm Level and Parameter Alarm Level.
Patient Status Alarms
Patient status alarms are triggered by patient condition which exceeds parameter limits, or by an arrhythmia condition. Patient status alarms provide you the highest priority information.
The levels within the Patient Status Alarm category and how the monitor responds to each is shown in the following chart. The chart begins with the most critical type of alarm (Crisis) and ends with the least critical type of alarm (Message).
NOTE: (Only for monitors without arrhythmia detection.) For patients at
risk of asystole, it is recommended to assign the HR alarm to the “Crisis” level (when assigned to the “Warning” level the HR alarm will clear automatically after 3 minutes in cases of continued asystole).

Alarm levels, alarm limits, and many of your monitor settings can be set up as Monitor Defaults. Monitor Defaults are recalled whenever a discharge procedure is performed.
The monitor can save only one set of defaults. Whenever the monitor mode is changed, (Adult-ICU, Neonatal-ICU, Operating Room) any Monitor Defaults you have set up will revert to factory default settings. The monitor mode, however, is usually established at the time of installation and can only be changed in the service menu.
To display the menu to set up your Monitor Defaults, select MONITOR DEFAULTS from the Monitor Setup Menu.
