EQUIPMENT OVERVIEW: Preparation for Use
Local/Remote Displays
The Solar 7000 has its own internal local display, but a Solar 8000
system requires a medical-grade display that meets UL and IEC
specifications. If a non-medical computer-grade display is used, an
isolation transformer (or floating power supply) is required regardless if
the computer-grade display meets the leakage current specifications on
its own.
The party assembling or modifying the medical electrical system is
responsible to insure compliance with IEC 601-1-1. Therefore, if GE
Marquette installs a Solar 8000 system with a computer-grade display,
GE Marquette is responsible for meeting the specification. As a result GE
Marquette will only:
• Install medical-grade displays that it recommends, or
• Install computer-grade displays with appropriate isolation
transformers (power conditioners).
NOTE
In an OR or other locations already having an isolated
power system, the use o f an isolat ing transfo rmer (powe r
conditioner) is redundant, and therefore may not be
necessary for patient isolation.

EQUIPMENT OVERVIEW: More About Tram-net Communication
More About Tram-net Communication
The Solar patient monitor uses two distinct local area networks:
• Tram-net communication, and
• Ethernet communication.
To avoid confusion, consider Tram-net as a small area network (SAN)
contained in one room or a t the pat ient bedsi de. Co nsider Et hernet as t he
local area network (LAN) for room to room communication or
communication between patient monitors, central stations, and other GE
Marquette equipment throughout the hospital.
This local area network links all patient monitors, central stations, and
other GE Marquette equipment throughout the hospital.
The 25-pin connector makes a Tram-net small area network available for
the peripheral devices. The Tram-net controller resides on the same bus
as the main processor which provides efficient data transfer by sharing
main memory.
Internal Hub
Tram-net is a small network that offers ample flexibility, a high rate of
communication, and relatively inexpensive cabling. Data is transmitted
at the rate of 921.6K bits per second. It uses a star topology, sometimes
referred to as a rooted tree topology. This means that the wiring of the
network can be pictured as a star or a series of stars. The center of each
star is called a hub, and the points of the star are called nodes. There are
cables between the nodes and the hubs, but no cables exist between
nodes.
NOTE: Do not confuse the internal hub or node with the Tram-net hub
assembly discussed earlier as a system component. The hub
described in these paragraphs refers to the electronic
distribution point of data.
Revision H Solar 7000/8000/View Patient Monitor 2-39
414993-001
EQUIPMENT OVERVIEW: More About Tram-net Communication
Data is acquired at a node, and is transmitted through a hub to all the
other nodes. Each node has an address so data will be received by the
node with the correct destination address. It is impossible for a node to
communicate with another node without the data going through a hub
somewhere along its journey. The hub controls all of the data ‘traffic’ in
the system.
In a Tram-net system, the head hub is contained in the patient monitor,
but there will be intermediate hubs in the Tram-rac housing and Tram
module as well.
Tram-net Hub Assembly
If more than one peripheral is connected to Tram-net, a Tram-net hub
assembly is required. The Tram-net hub assembly simply adds
connectors as more nodes to the patient monitor’ s internal hub. The
nodes of the star in the Tram-net system can be patient monitor
peripherals like the remote control, or Tram-rac housing.
The Tram-net hub assembly extends the communication data and power
between the monitor and its peripherals. If the peripheral draws more
than 3.0 amperes of current, the maximum cable length will be 6.0
meters (20 feet). If the current draw of the peripheral is less, the cable
can be longer. The maximum serial cable length may be up to 61 meters
(200 feet) on peripherals with no power consumption.

EQUIPMENT OVERVIEW: More About Ethernet Communication
More About Ethernet Communication
Ethernet is a local area network used as the main link of the Marquette
Unity network, a comprehensive information communication system.
The Marquette Unity network offers the high rate of communication of
10 megabits per second. The 15-pin Ethernet connector connects to an
Ethernet transceiver directly or via a transceiver cable. This local area
network links all patient monitors, central stations, and other GE
Marquette equipment throughout the hospital. Depending upon the
construction of the hospital, thick-net, thin-net, or twisted pair cabling is
used.
Twisted Pair
Twisted pair is the most popular cabling because it is easy to install and
flexible to work with. It uses the star topology with a concentrator as the
hub of the segment. Each of the network devices is connected directly to
the concentrator so longer lengths of cable are required. A maximum of
100 meters or 328 feet is the longest length of twisted pair cable used.
The number of devices is limited to the amount of connectors at the
concentrator. More details regarding twisted pair cable is described later
in this chapter.

414993-001
EQUIPMENT OVERVIEW: More About Ethernet Communication
Concentrator
Thin-net /Thick-net
Node
Segment and Branch
The concentrator is simply a transceiver that passes all network data
between any two branc hes in the LAN. Note that the concentrator passes
all network data between the two branches, regardless of whether or not
one node is sending data to another node on the same branch.
Thick-net and thin-net is not the most recommended type of network, but
are used in special situations. Both thick-net and thin-net use a bus
topology and connect any nu mber of d evi ces. Each device i s tappe d int o a
straight data bus or trunk. A thick-net or thin-net cable is used for the
main trunk to provide fast data transmission, but is difficult to install
and harder to work with.
Each network device or node is assigned an address number and requires
a transceiver to interface between the network device and the network.
For thick-net and thin-net cabling a transceiver and a serial drop cable
connects to the main trunk. The serial drop cable is sometimes referred
to as an AUI (attachment unit interface) transceiver cable. For twisted
pair cabling, the transceiver to connected directly to the network device.
Some Ethernet systems are comprised of smaller, stand-alone Ethernet
systems (called branches or segments) that are connected by bridges,
concentrators, or repeaters . Many nodes on the Ethernet network ma y be
serviced by one segment or branch. Each segment may support many
patient monitors, central stations, and auxiliary devices.
For example, one segment may connect all the patient monitors and
central stations in the ICU (Intensive Care Unit) and another may
connect the monitoring system in the CCU (Critical Care Unit). Each
segment could be a fully-functioning stand-alone system if they were not
connected to each other. However, with a bridge or repeater to connect
the ICU (one segment) with the CCU (the other segment), information
can pass between any of the nodes (patient monitors and central
stations) on either branch similar to a patient transfer from one unit to
another.
2-42 Solar 7000/8000/View Patient Monitor Revision H
414993-001
EQUIPMENT OVERVIEW: More About Ethernet Communication
Repeater
Bridge
A repeater is used to extend the length of cabling when the distance
required exceeds the length of the cable specifications. It is simply a
transceiver that passes all network data between any two segments.
Note that the repeater passes all network data between the two
segments, regardless of whether or not the one node is sending data to
another node on the same segment.
A bridge is more selective than a repeater with the data that it passes
between segments. It also acts as a transceiver between two segments,
but it only passes signals if a node on one of the segments is attempting
to communicate with a node on the other segment. Since the majority of
communication on the network occurs within a single segment, the
bridge does not pass all of the data from one segment to the other. This
lowers the amount of data traffic passing between segments, and makes
the network more efficient than a system that is connected with
repeaters. Shown below is an example of two segments of thin-net
cabling connected by a bridge.

What is Twisted Pair Cabling (10 Base-T)?
Twisted pair is an IEEE 802.3 local area network that uses flat and
small diameter cable containing four pairs of twisted wires to connect
devices. Twisted pair operates at the same speed as thin-net and thicknet (10 megabits/second), but the cable distances extended up to 100
meters (328 feet).

414993-001
MAINTENANCE: Cleaning
Cleaning Inside the Solar 7000 Color Monitor
The Solar 7000 color monitor uses a forced-air cooling system that draws
appreciable quantities of air through the unit. As a result there can be a
buildup of lint and other debris inside the unit. Accumulations of lint and
debris can lead to thermal failures or short-circuit failures if not removed
regularly.
It is recommended that the inside of all Solar monitors should be cle aned
every 12 months.
To clean the inside of the monitor, follow this procedure:
1. Power down the monitor. Disconnect the monitor from the power
source and the network.
2. Remove the screws attaching the housing to the chassis at the rear of
the unit.
3. Pull the chassis out of the housing.
4. Using a source of clean, dry compressed air blow all lint and debris
from between the circuit boards and the other assemblies.
CAUTION
Do not use a vacuum device unless suitable static-control
procedures are followed. Many vacuum systems generate
appreciable static electricity which could damage
semiconductor circuits in the monitor.
5. Make sure all circuit boards are seated firmly. Make sure all cables
are connected.
6. Install the chassis back into the housing and attach with screws.
7. Perform leakage tests.
8. Connect the monitor to the network and to the power source.
9. Apply power to the monitor and verify operation.

Electrical Safety Tests
General
Recommendations
Electrical safety tests provide a method of determining if potential
electrical health hazards to the patient or operator of the device exist.
To help you establish a systematic maintenance routine, GE Marquette
recommends that you perform all safety tests presented in this c hapter.
These instructions are intended for every monitor, remote display,
Octanet, or Tram-rac housing in the system. If the Tram-rac housing
does not have its own power supply, it should remain connected to the
monitor throughout the safety tests.
• upon receipt of the device (monitor and its associated equipment),
• every twelve months th ereafter,
• each time the main enclosure is disassembled or a circuit board is
removed, tested, repaired, or replaced, and
• record the date and results on the “Maintenance/Repair Log”
included at the end of this chapter.
CAUTION
Failure to implement a satisfactory maintenance
schedule may cause undue equipment failure and
possible health hazards. Unless you have an Equipment
Maintenance Contract, GE Marquette Medical Systems
does not in any manner assume the responsibility for
performing the recommended maintenance procedures.
The sole responsibility rests with the individual or
institution using the equipment. GE Marquette service
personnel may, at their discr etion, follow the pr ocedures
provided in this manua l as a guide during visits to the

MAINTENANCE: Electrical Safety Tests
Wall Receptacle Test
Ground (Earth) Integrity
Ground
Pin
Before starting the tests, the wall receptacle from which the monitoring
device will get electrical power must be checked. This test checks the
condition of the wall receptacle to ensure correct results from leakage
tests.
For international wall receptacles, refer to the internal standards
agencies of that particular country. Use a digital multimeter to ensure
the wall receptacle is wired properly.
If other than normal polarity and ground is indicated, corrective action
must be taken b efore procee ding . The results of the fol lowing te sts wi ll be
meaningless unless a properly wired wall receptacle is used.
Listed below are two methods for checking the ground (earth) integrity,
“Ground Continuity Test” and “Impedance of Protective Earth
Connection.” These te sts determine whether the device's exposed metal
and power inlet's earth (ground) connection has a power ground fault
condition.
Perform the test method below that is required by your Country/Local
governing safety organization.
Ground Continuity Test
Impedance of Protective Earth Connection
Completion of this test is checked by the following steps:
1. Disconnect the DUT (device under test) from the wall receptacle.
2. Connect the negative(- ) le a d of the o hm met er to th e prot ect ive e arth
terminal (ground pin in power in-let connector) or the protective
earth pin in the MAINS PLUG (ground pin in power cord). Refer to
the US 120Vac power cord figure on the left.
3. Set the Ohm meter to the milliohm (mΩ) range.
4. Connect the positive (+) lead of the Ohm meter to all exposed metal
surfaces on the DUT. If the metal surfaces are anodized or painted
scrape off a small area in a inconspicuous area for the probe to make
contact with the metal.
5. Resistance should read to pass:
• 0.1 ohm or less without power cord
• 0.2 ohms or less with power cord
This test unlike a ground continuity test will also stress the ground
system by using special ground bond testers i.e. Kikusui (model 872 or
TOS 6100) or Associated Research model HYAMP® Jr. Model 3030D.
This test normally is only required as a manufacturing production test to
receive safety agency compliance (i.e. IEC601-1).
Some country agency's do require this test after field equipment repairs
(i.e. Germany's DIN VDE 0751 standards).
Revision H Solar 7000/8000/View Patient Monitor 3-7
414993-001
MAINTENANCE: Electrical Safety Tests
Consult your country/local safety agency if in question.
Compliance is checked by the following steps:
1. A current not less than 10A and not exceeding 25 A from a current
source with a frequency of 50 or 60 Hz with a no-load voltage not
exceeding 6 V is passed for at least 5 s through the PROTECTIVE
EARTH TERMINAL or the protective earth pin in the MAINS PLUG
and each ACCESSIBLE METAL PART which could become LIVE in
case of failure in BASIC INSULATION.
2. The voltage drop between the parts described is measured and the
impedance determined from the current and voltage drop. It shall not
exceed the values indicated.
For EQUIPMENT without a POWER SUPPLY CORD the impedance
between the PROTECTIVE EARTH TERMINAL and any ACCESSIBLE
METAL PART which is PROTECTIVELY EARTHED shall not exceed
0.1 ohms
For EQUIPMENT with a POWER SUPPLY CORD the impedance
between the protective earth pin in the MAINS PLUG and any
ACCESSIBLE METAL PART which is PROTECTIVELY EARTHED
shall not exceed 0.2 ohms.
When taking this measurement move the custo mer’s po wer cord ar ound ,
no fluctuations in resistance should be observed.

TROUBLESHOOTING: Block Theory of Operation
Block Theory of Operation
Overview
Main Processor PCB
Display Processing Circuitry
Remote/Local Display Circuitry
The monitor is capable of displaying up to six or eight different
waveforms at one time on a color or monoc hrome high-definition, rasterscan screen. Pop-up window guide user interactions on screen without
obstructing the display of real-time patient data. Software upgrades are
downloaded using a laptop computer or from the central station using
the Marquette Unity Network.
The main processor PCB performs all the major processing of the Solar
7000/8000/View monitor and controls many other complex functions of
the monitor. It controls the display processing, remote display, remote
alarm, and all communication functions. More details are listed below.
The main section of this PCB is the display processing section that is
controlled by a 25-MHz microprocessor. It accepts processed or
unprocessed patient data from one of the communication networks and
processes it to be displayed on the monitor. The main microprocessor
receives control signals directly from the keycap PCB or remotely from
the various communication connectors. Two set s of analog video signals
are generated: one drives the CRT and the other drives the remote
display.
The main processor PCB also provides circuitry to buffer the real-time
waveforms from the Solar 7000 monitor to a remote color or monochrome
display. Likewise, the Solar 8000 processing unit and SolarView remote
display controller provide the same circuitry to a compatible local display.
RGB video signals and horizontal and vertical sync signals are available
from the video display connector.
Remote Alarm Circuitry
4-10 Solar 7000/8000/View Patient Monitor Revision H
The remote audio signals are generated for the remote audio/alarm
(RMT ALM) connector. The remote audio signal has an amplitude of
approximately 1 V p-p and a frequency response of 160 to 16 kHz.
Two sets of relay signals are also provided to drive the remote alarm
interface circuitry. Two sets of relay signals are provided in order to
implement a fail-safe scheme in which one relay signal set indicate alarm
condition, and the other indicates that the monitor is active. Both relay
control signals are actuated in the normal MONITOR ACTIVE/NO
ALARM state. This insures that a failure in the relay circuitry will cause
an alarm condition to occur. Assertion of the RESET* signal or removal
of power to the monitor forces the alarm control signals to the inactive
state.
An associated, separately powered remote alarm indicator unit is
required to complete the implementation of the fail-safe alarm scheme.
This unit must have MONITORING SYSTEM ENABLED/DISABLE
control which is used to confirm that the monitor has been turn ed OFF. If
this switch is in the ENABLED position and the monitor’s active relay
becomes deactuated, an alarm condition occurs. Indicators can be
provided on the remote alarm unit to identify the specific type of alarm
condition currently occurring.
414993-001
TROUBLESHOOTING: Block Theory of Operation
Communication Circuitry
Low-Voltage Power Supply
The Ethernet communication section of the main proce ssor PCB provides
an Ethernet communication interface for the monitor. The data is sent
and received at a rate of 10M bits per second over the Ethernet-based
Marquette Unity Network.
The communication circuitry also provides for Tram-net
communications. (Tram-net signals are not provided for the SolarView
remote display controller.) The Tram-net controller packages the data for
serial transmission to/from the monitor peripherals and relieves the
main microprocessor from performing the serial transmission conversion.
The data transferred may be patient data from the Tram-rac housing or
user input signals from a remote control. An FPGA funct ions as a header
hub in the Tram-net local-area network retu rning the sent data to all
nodes.
Asynchronous signals are sent to/from the four UART devices on the
main processor PCB. Async data is processed for serial transmission to
the auxiliary async (RS232/RS422) ports. The RS422 async port is used
for the peripheral devices like the DDW, remote control, and for softw are
updates. The RS232 port is reserved for future use.
The low-voltage power supply converts the AC voltage from the
transformer windings to provide all low voltage power requirements for
the monitor as filtered +16.75V and +5V.
Keycap PCB
Additional Solar 7000 Circuit Boards
Mono CRT Controller PCB
Color CRT Control ler PCB
For the Solar 7000 monitors, +24V DC is also provided. Only when a
control line from the main processor PCB is activated to the color Solar
7000 low-voltage power supply, the power supply will connect 100V to the
degaussing coil for the CRT.
The keycap PCB interfaces with the user and the main processor PCB. It
receives user input from the five hard keys and the Trim Knob control.
The following circuit boards are used in the Solar 7000 monitor only.
The monochrome CRT controller PCB controls electron beam deflections
in both axes and contains all the necessary drive circuitry for the display.
It contains circuitry for horizontal deflection, vertical deflection, video
drive, and dynamic focus. A protection circuit is provided to shut off the
electron beam should one of the deflection signals be lost.
The CRT controller PCB receives video and sync data from the main
processor pcb assembly. The video signals are amplified and DC level
restored. This pcb drives the three cathodes t hat control the intensity of
the color CRT.
Deflection PCB ( C o lor Only)
Revision H Solar 7000/8000/View Patient Monitor 4-11
The deflection PCB provides the deflection signals to the yoke for
synchronous scanning of the CRT. The synchronizing signals are received
from the main processor PCB. This circuit board also develops auxiliary
voltages for other assemblies in the monitor.
