This guide tells you how to install, service, and repair an Series 50A (M1351A) and an
Series 50 IP/IP-2 (M1353A) fetal monitor. Throughout this book, the M1353A is referred
to as the IP-2. This also covers the IP, unless stated otherwise. It describes the system
hardware and software, and tells you how to test the system and diagnose operating and
service problems.
It gives instructions for both the Series 50 A and the Series 50 IP/IP-2 monitors. The
features available on the monitor you are installing or serv icing depend on which options
have been purchased. If your monitor does not have a described parameter, you can skip
that part of the instruction and move on to the next point.

Repair Strategy
The manual is for anyone who services an d repairs Series 50 A (M1351A) and Series
50 IP/IP-2 (M1353A) fetal monitors. You must understand English and be familiar with
current conventional technical terms.
Famil iarize your self with the conte nts of this guide be fore attemp ting to install or service the
monitor.
Reading operating error messages and the error lo g helps you to d etermine wheth er a fault is
a hardware or software problem. Faults may be repaired by replacing a board when possible,
or exchanging the monitor. Repair or replacement of components on the boards should not
be attempted.
After any repairs you must carry out the following tests:
l
Performance test, by running the Self Test (see page 65).
l
Quick Test (see page 66).
l
Parameter Test (see page 68).
You must also perform the appropriate safety tests (see the section “Safety Testing” on
page 100).
A series of preventive maintenance tasks and performance assurance tests must be carried
out regularly to ensure the proper functioning of the monitor: these are described in
“Regular Maintenance” on page 96.

Overview
Overview
This guide describes three different Series 50 Fe tal Monitor models:
l
M1351A Single Ultrasound model (with US and Toco channels).
l
M1351A Dual Ultrasound Twins model (with US1, Toco and US2 channels).
l
M1353A model (with US1, Toco and US2/ECG channels).
The M1351A single and double ultrasound model is for external monitoring of FHR an d
uterine activity in the a nte nata l peri o d fr om ea rl y ge st ati on (appr o x im a te ly 20 to 25 w ee ks)
to term. The M1353A is for monitoring FHR, including twins, maternal heart rate and
uterine activity. FHR and uterine activity can be monitored externally in the antenatal
period from early gestation to term, and in ternally th roug hout labor and delive ry. The basic
capabilities of the three models are summarized in the table below.

Note— The ACOG technical bulletin on FHR monitoring states that “accurate
pattern recognition is difficult if not impossible at 1 cm/min and that 1 cm/
min is only recommended for more economic screening. When FHR
abnormalities arise, the faster paper speeds will enhance FHR pattern
recognition”. In addition, since a change in paper speed will result in a
change in the appearance of an FHR trace, care must be taken to ensure ALL

System Overview

Theory of Operation
The CPU board, which has overall control of the entire system, contains flash EPROMs
containing all the s ystem sof tware. Th e softwa re for the Co mbined I nterface Bo ard (if one is
fitted) is loaded from this ROM area.The signals from the transducers receive some analog
conditioning on the Front End Board and are then digitized on th e CPU Board. The CPU
Board includes a digital signal processor. The results of the processing are distributed to the
outputs (for example, the Recorder, “traffic lights” and Combined Interface Board).
Chapter 6 Theory of Operation 49
Booting and Self Tests
Booting and Self Tests
The monitor carries out a basic test every time it is switched on, and then at periodic
intervals whil e it is on. There are two typ es of t es t:
l
Programs that check the hardware on each board.
l
Programs that carry out check sums on the individual portions of code that are loaded
from the Flash EEPROMs.
When the moni tor is switched on , the initial reset generated by the power supply is fed to
the CPU Board, where it is latched and passed to the other boards. Each board latches the
reset to light its error LED. The LED can only be switched off by the CPU Board delatching it.
All error LEDs are on at the start of the tests. If a hardware error is detected on a board, its
error LED stays on and its error code is shown on the display. (The error code is the last
three digits of the bo a r d ’s part number.) But note that if any element in the display chain is
not working, the errors may not be displayed. If a board passes its test, the LED goes out,
and the next board in the sequence is tested.
The Power Supply Board, Front End Board and Recorder Board have no processor and so
are tested by the CPU Bo a rd.
The boards are tested in the following sequence:
1.CPU Board.
2.Power Supply Board.
3.Front End Board.
4.Recorder Board.
5.Combined Interface Board (if one is fitted).
6.Modem Interface Board (if one is fitted).
The processor on the CPU Board runs a self-test program from the Flash EEPROMs to test
certain function s of the CPU Board:
l
If the test fails, the red LED stays on and “Err 503'' is displayed .
l
If the test is successful, the red LED on the board goes out.
The current limits of the outputs of the Power Supply Board are then checked:
l
If any currents are out of limits, ``Err 502'' is displayed. Note that this does not
necessarily mean that the Power Supply Board is faulty (for example, a short on
another board could be drawing too much current).
l
If the test is successful, the red LED on the CPU Board is switched off.
l
All other boards are then tested. The red LEDs on the Front End Board and the
Recorder Board are lit for about 1 s, and then switch ed off when the test is successful.
50Chapte r 6 Theory of Operation
Booting and Self Tests
The Combined Interface Board and the Modem Interface Board both have processors that
test the interface board once the DMA control logic has been checked.
The CPU Board boots a test program from the ROM to the on-board Digital Signal
Processor (DSP) program RAM. The DSP then runs it. The program tests the DSP and its
associated components, and writes the results to the DSP RAM. The CPU reads the RAM
to find out the exit status of the tests. If the te st fail s, the LE D stays on and the err or code is
displayed.
The signal processing software is stored as two programs in Flash EEPROMs. This carries
out US/US or US/ECG functions. The CPU Board transfers the US/US or US/ECG
program from its Flash EEPROMs to the program RAM of the DSP.
All the time the monitor is on, the CPU Board checksums the signal processing software
and the Flash EEPROMs at 1-minute intervals. If the tests fail, the system is reset and
rebooted. And every 300ms, a watchdog ASIC is fed patterns by the CPU Board 68000. If
the ASIC does not receive a pattern, it resets the system.

The Power S upply Board operates as a linear regulated power supply with rectifier, capacitor

Regulated dc:
Unregulated dc: +7V to +12V
±12V, +5V and +24V
±12V and +5V have an electronic short circuit curr e nt li mi t. The +2 4V dc regulator works
independently from the others. The +24V are used for the thermal printhead fed through
the recorder IF-board. The internal +2. 5V reference voltage is generated from the +24V, so
if the 24V section is inoperative, the rest of the power supply won’t work. The -12V
regulator a lso needs the regulated +5V to work correctly. The reset (open collector output)
is active low, when either the +5 V i s lower than +4.6V o r the + 24 V i s lower than +14.8V. If
the +5V is highe r than 6.2V (this can be caused by any failure of the power supply or the
other boards) the over-voltage protecti on is triggered and pulls down the voltag e to about
3.4V. This state can on ly b e re liev ed by sw itchi ng t he mo nitor o ff and on (i f the failu r e isn ’t

AD/DA Section:
n
After system startup, the CPU starts the A/D control chip, which divides the
signal fr o m the clock circuit and generates an i nterrupt every 2.5 ms.
n
The 68000 on the CPU Board then programs the multiplexer to select the analog
channels for A/D conversion: the analog/digital conversion of up to eight
channels is done by the multiplexer without further intervention by the CPU. A/
D conversion is by successive approximation. After the next interrupt, the CPU
reads the results stored in registers within the multiplexer. The multiplexer also
receives values from the CPU for audio output.

Service Philosophy
Any errors produced are marked on the trace paper with the symbol and a specific
error message is shown on the monitor display. In addition, the errors are reported on the
system error log (see page 38 for instructions on how to print the error log). Read the error
messages and system error log to determine whether the fault lies in the hardware or
firmware. These problems can be repaired by board replacement or unit exchange. Do not
attempt component-level board repair.

Performance Assurance Tests
Self TestThe monitor automatically performs a basic-level self test when you switch it on. There are
two possible types of error that you might see. A fatal error prevents the monitor from
functioning. A non-fatal error allows you to continue to work but warns you of a problem
that must be resolved swiftly.
l
If a non-fatal error occurs (for example, if the batteries are low):
n
An error message is displayed for approximately 13 seconds.
Chapter 7 Tests and Error Messages 65

Chapter 8, “Troubleshooting Flow charts.” (If the reco rder is not on when the
monitor is switched on,
Err xxx , time and date are printed when it is
switched on subsequently.)
l
If a fatal error occurs (for example, if a board is defective):
n
An error message is displayed for approximately 13 seconds.
n
After 13 seconds, the monitor will try to resta rt.
If the error occurs again refer to Chapter 8, “Troubleshooting Flowcharts. ”
Quick TestThis tests the display, recorder and monitor hardware and takes approximately 15 seconds.

Troubleshooting Flowcharts
Troubleshoot ing is based on the interpretation of the error messages writ ten on the display
and in the systems error log. See page 69 for a list of Operator Error Messages. For a list of
error log messages and details of how to print the error log, refer to -38. There are cases,
however, when no error message, or the natu re of the problem precludes the
implementation of any automatic testing schemes. This chapter directs you towards the
problem in a schematic approach. This method of troubleshooting may lead you to discover
a blown fuse or a power supply failure.
