Introduction: Safety messages

General

The intended use of this device is to record ECG signals from surface ECG electrodes. This device can analyze, record, and store electrocardiographic information from adult and pediatric populations. This data can then be computer analyzed with various algorithms such as interpretive ECG and signal averaging for presentation to the user.

This device is intended for use under the direct supervision of a licensed health care practitioner.

Failure on the part of the responsible individual, hospital, or institution using this equipment to implement a satisfactory maintenance schedule may cause undue equipment failure and possible health hazards.

To ensure patient safety, use only parts and accessories manufactured or recommended by GE Healthcare.

Contact GE Healthcare for information before connecting any devices to this equipment that are not recommended in this manual.

If the installation of this equipment, in the USA, will use 240 V rather than 120 V, the source must be a center-tapped, 240 V, single-phase circuit.

Parts and accessories used must meet the requirements of the applicable IEC 60601 series safety standards, and/or the system configuration must meet the requirements of the IEC 60601-1-1 medical electrical systems standard.

The use of accessory equipment not complying with the equivalent safety requirements of this equipment may lead to a reduced level of safety of the resulting system. Consideration relating to the choice shall include:

use of the accessory in the patient vicinity; and

evidence that the safety certification of the accessory has been performed in accordance to the appropriate IEC 60601-1 and/or IEC 60601-1-1 harmonized national standard.

Equipment symbols

See the MAC 1600 operator’s manual for information about the symbols used on this product and its packaging.

General fault isolation

Power-up self-test

See the MAC 1600 Operator’s Manual, Chapter 2, “Equipment Overview” to verify operation.

On power-up, the system automatically runs an internal self-test. If all tests pass, you will see the start-up screen.

The next screen that appears after the start-up screen depends on the Power up mode selected in System Configuration. The Resting ECG mode is the default Power up mode.

If the equipment is not working properly, ask yourself the following questions.

Is the unit turned on?

Have there been any changes in the use, location, or environment of the equipment that could cause the failure?

Has the equipment hardware or software been modified since last use?

Is operator error the cause of the problem?

Try to repeat the scenario exactly and compare that to the proper operation of the equipment described in the manual.

Is the battery installed?

When connected to the AC wall outlet, does the green AC power light glow?

Troubleshooting: General fault isolation

Poor quality ECGs

Poor quality ECGs can be caused by factors in the environment, inadequate patient preparation, hardware failures related to the acquisition module, lead wires, cables, or problems in the unit.

Visual inspection

A thorough visual inspection of the equipment can save time. Small things— disconnected cables, foreign debris on circuit boards, missing hardware, loose components—can frequently cause symptoms and equipment failures that may appear to be unrelated and difficult to track.

NOTE

 

Take the time to make all the recommended visual checks before starting any

 

detailed troubleshooting procedures.

 

 

 

Table 1. Visual Inspection List

 

 

Area

Look for the following problems

 

 

I/O connectors and cables and

Fraying or other damage

AC power cord

Bent prongs or pins

 

Cracked housing

 

Loose screws in plugs

 

 

Interface cables

Excessive tension or wear

 

Loose connection

 

Strain reliefs out of place

 

 

Circuit boards

Moisture, dust, or debris (top and bottom)

 

Loose or missing components

 

Burn damage or smell of over-heated components

 

Socketed components not firmly seated

 

PCB not seated properly in edge connectors

 

Solder problems: cracks, splashes on board, incomplete feedthrough, prior modifications or repairs

 

 

Ground wires/wiring

Loose wires or ground strap connections

 

Faulty wiring

 

Wires pinched or in vulnerable position

 

 

Fasteners

Loose or missing screws or other hardware, especially fasteners used as connections to ground

 

planes on PCBs

 

 

Power source

Faulty wiring, especially AC outlet

 

Circuit not dedicated to system

 

(Power source problems can cause static discharge, resetting problems, and noise.)

 

 

Keyboard

Cuts or cracks in keyboard membrane

 

Illegible labels

 

 

LCD display filter

Scratched or opaque display filter (transparent component of keyboard bezel)

 

 

Battery pack

Cracked, swollen, or leaky battery pack enclosure

 

Debris on battery pack electrical contacts

 

 

SD card

Cracked SD card

 

Broken gold contacts

Troubleshooting: Event logging

Event logging

Setting Up event logging

The MAC 1600 system can be set up to create an Event Log in XML format that contains system errors, warnings, and informational messages. To configure the device for the level of severity of messages written to the Event Log, follow these steps.

1.Power on the MAC 1600 system by pressing the Power button.

2.From the Main Menu, press F5 to select System Configuration.

3.Press F6 to select More.

4.Press F6 to select More again.

5.Press F5 to select Service Setup.

A window opens prompting you to enter the Service password.

6.Type prod and press F6 to select OK.

NOTE

If the keyboard does not include the letters prod, type 7763 and press F6 to select OK.

The following window opens.

7.Move the focus to the Event Log button and press the Enter key to select.

Troubleshooting: Event logging

8.Enable or disable event logging:

Check the Key Event Logging check box to enable writing to the Event Log, or

clear the Key Event Logging check box to disable writing to the Event Log.

9.Select a level of severity to log from the Log Level list:

Select Error to log only errors to the Event Log.

Select Warning to log errors and warnings to the Event Log.

Select Information to log errors, warnings, and information messages to the

Event Log.

10.Press F6 to select Save.

Exporting the event log

1.Repeat steps 1-7 in “Setting Up event logging”.

2.Insert an SD card in SD card slot in back panel as shown in the following figure (with gold contacts up).

3.Press F1 to select Export Log Files.

The current Event Log file, log_0.log, is copied to a log directory on the SD card.

NOTE

The log file can be accessed by inserting the SD card in an SD card reader that is connected to a computer with a Windows operating system and a text editor like Notepad or WordPad. If the Event Log is requested by

GE Service for troubleshooting an issue, the file can be sent as an email attachment.

Troubleshooting: Performing diagnostic tests

Performing diagnostic tests

Verify that the MAC 1600 resting ECG analysis system operates properly by running the diagnostic tests. These tests check the operation of the display screen, speaker, keyboard, thermal writer, battery, and communications. These diagnostic tests are a useful tools for troubleshooting problems and can be useful as a part of system checkout procedures.

Accessing the system diagnostics function

The System Diagnostics menu can be used to perform functional diagnostic tests.

Access the System Diagnostics menu as follows.

1.Power on the MAC 1600 system by pressing the Power button.

2.From the Main Menu, press F5 to select System Configuration.

3.Press F6 to select More.

4.Press F6 to select More again.

5.Press F5 to select Service Setup.

A window opens prompting you to enter the Service password.
