1.5 Special Types of Risk
The defibrillator emits powerful electrical energy. Severe injuries or death may
result if the defibrillator is not used in accordance with this user manual.
• Familiarise yourself with the device and this user manual.
The defibrillator must not be opened. Internal components may carry high
voltages.
• If a fault is suspected, have the device checked by the authorised sales
and service partner and, if necessary, repaired.
The defibrillator may cause electromagnetic interference, particularly during
charging and on triggering the defibrillation shock.
The functioning of devices operated in the vicinity may be compromised.
• Check the effects of the defibrillator on other devices, preferably before
an emergency occurs.
Electromagnetic fields of other devices may invalidate the ECG readings.
ECG analysis may be impaired. It may be impossible to trigger a defibrillation
shock or pacer pulse.
• Please read and follow the instructions for operation of the device in
chapter 2 Intended Use, p. 4 in addition to the safety warnings during use
It is essential to read and follow the safety information in the appendix F (from
page 272).

3.2 Device Design
The three modules monitoring unit, patient box and defibrillator/pacer can
operate via an infrared connection or, if separated, via radio connection.
The connection status is shown on the display of the monitoring unit (see Table
4-2, page 36) and the patient box (see Table 4-3, page 39).
Communication between the modules in semi-modular and modular use is
performed by radio up to a distance of 10 m in open terrain.
In the connected mechanically state, the modules communicate via an optical
infrared connection.
If the radio connection is interrupted, the modules have to be connected to each
other mechanically. The corpuls
connection to infrared connection in this case.
The antenna of the radio unit in the patient box is located at the top. In case the
antenna is shadowed, for example by metallic or metallised objects, the
maximal reach of the radio connection may be reduced. This may happen, for
example, when the patient box is placed between the patient’s legs on the
stretcher. If possible, choose a position for the patient box that allows
unimpeded view to the other modules.

thus provides the option of substituting individual modules of one
compact device for in di vidu al modules of the same t ype f rom another corpuls
It is not possible to connect a monitoring unit to more than one patient box or
one defibrillator/pacer at the same time.
Pairing is a connection authorisation that enables the communication between
wirelessly connected modules.
An ad-hoc connection allows the use of mechanically connected modules
without having to perform a pairing beforehand.
For both procedures the following prerequisites apply:
1. For a pairing, monitoring unit, patient box and defibrillator/pacer have to be
equipped with radio modules of the same type (hardware version).
2. If this is not the case, if the hardware version of the radio modules is
different (1
st
and 2nd generation), those modules can only form an ad-hoc
connection.
3. For both a pairing and for an ad-hoc connection all modules have to be
equipped with an identical sof tware versio n.
As of July 2011 the corpuls3 comes equipped with a second generation radio
module. This new radio module is not compatible with those of the first
generation.
The corpuls
3
modules with the 2nd generation radio module are labelled with a
number symbol. This symbol is attached at the following places:
• Monitoring unit: at the front side, top left,
• Patient box: on top,
• Defibrillator/pacer: at the rear side, on top.
The number symbol also marks the position of the radio module in the modules.

Introduction
To star a pairing, proceed as follows:
1. Connect the monitoring unit, the patient box and, if present, the
defibrillator/pacer mechanically.
2. There are the following options:
a) The message Perform pairing? appears:
Confirm the message by pressing the softkey [Start].
b) The message Perform pairing? does not appear:
Select in the main menu "System“► "Start Pairing".
3. The message Pairing successful appears on the screen oft he

for operation via wireless connection.
To start an ad-hoc connection, proceed as follows:
1. Connect the modules mechanically.
2. Do not confirm the message Perform pairing?
The message Ad-hoc connection [Module], e.g. Ad-hoc connection P-box or Ad-hoc connection Defib appears on the
screen of the monitoring unit. The corpuls

is ready for operation.
The connection status is shown by symbols in the status line in the upper right
corner of the monitoring unit (see Table 4-2 Module connection status, page 36
and Appendix A Symbols, page 272) .
If a new pairing is performed between a monitoring unit and a patient box or
with another compact device, the previously saved wireless connection
authorisation to the patient box or to the defibrillator/pacer is automatically
deleted.

Warning
When connecting different patient boxes by ad-hoc connection, there can be
inconsistent entries in the data management.
During an ad-hoc connection a wireless connection to other modules is not
possible.
If two modules connected by an ad-hoc connection are separated, a radio
connection to the original patient box and defibrillator/pacer is automatically
re-established.
