Introduction

This manual contains information for servicing the A1 and A3 patient monitors, subsequently referred to as the monitor throughout this manual. Only where there are differences in service procedures for the two monitor types is each monitor referred to specifically as A1 and A3. Only qualified service personnel should service this product. Before servicing the monitor, read the User Guide carefully for a thorough understanding of operation.
Introduction 1

Patient Monitor Description

Patient Monitor Description
The purpose and function of the patient monitor is to monitor: ECG; heart rate; noninvasive blood pressure (systolic, diastolic, and mean arterial pressures); functional arterial oxygen saturation; respiration rate (A3 only); and temperature for adult and pediatric patients in all hospital areas and hospital-type facilities. It can be used during hospital transport and in mobile, land-based environments, such as ambulances.
The physical and operational characteristics of the monitor are described in the User Guide.
The measurement parameters and features for each model are indicated below.

Introduction to External Recorder (M3925A)

The recorder is an optional, standalone printer designed for use with the A1 patient monitor. The recorder communicates with the monitor using a null­modem cable connected between each device’s RS-232 connector.
The recorder contains an internal battery, which, when fully charged, will operate the recorder for 3 hours (typical, at 25°C, producing fifteen 20-second printouts per hour). The recorder can be connected to AC power using an external power supply. The recorder uses the same type of power supply as the A1 monitor, the PS-120V or PS-240V.
The recorder does not have an On/Off switch. The recorder can sense when it has an established communication link with the monitor. At that time, the green LINKED indicator on the front panel lights, indicating that the recorder is ready for operation. See the recorder’s User Guide for more information regarding its operation.

Routine Maintenance

Cleaning

Warning Do not immerse the monitor or its accessories in liquid or
clean with caustic or abrasive cleaners. Do not spray or pour any liquid on the monitor or its accessories.
To clean the monitor, dampen a cloth with a commercial, nonabrasive cleaner and wipe the exterior surfaces lightly. Do not allow any liquids to come in contact with the power connector or switches. Do not allow any liquids to penetrate connectors or openings in the instrument. For cables, sensors and cuffs, follow the cleaning instructions in the directions for use that accompany these accessories.

Periodic Safety And Functional Checks

The monitor requires cleaning, battery maintenance and NiBP performance and verification check every two years. The following performance verification tests may be used following repair or during routine maintenance (if required by your local institution).
1. Inspect the exterior of the monitor for damage.
2. Inspect labels for legibility. If the labels are not legible, contact Philips’ Response Center or your local Philips representative.
3. Verify that the NiBP performs properly as described in “Verification of Pneumatic System” on page 21.

Battery

If the monitor has not been used for a long period of time, the battery will need charging. To charge the battery, connect the monitor to an AC outlet, or external DC supply in the case of the A3, as described in “Battery Charge” on page 13 or the “Setup and Use” chapter of the User Guide.
Note Storing the monitor for a long period without charging the battery
can degrade the battery capacity. A complete battery recharge requires 8 hours.
Chapter 2 - Routine Maintenance 5

Environmental Protection

The battery can be recharged while the monitor is in use, in which case, the battery requires 14 hours to be recharged.
The battery can require a full discharge/charge cycle to restore normal capacity.
If the monitor operates1 for less than one hour on battery power before the low battery alarm occurs, the battery should be conditioned.
If the same symptom persists even after the battery is conditioned and indicating a full charge, the battery should be replaced.
Refer to Chapter 6, “Disassembly Guide”.
Environmental Protection
Follow local governing ordinances and recycling plans regarding disposal or recycling batteries and other device components.

Performance Tests

Battery Charge

Performance Tests
The battery charge and battery performance test should be performed before monitor repairs whenever the battery is suspected as being a source of the problems. All other tests can be used following repairs or during routine maintenance (if required by your local institution). Before performing the battery performance test, ensure that the battery is fully charged. (See “Battery Charge” below).
This section is written using factory-set power-up defaults. If your institution has pre configured custom defaults, those values display.
To fully charge the battery:
1. Connect the monitor to an AC power source using the proper power cord. For the A1, use the PS-120V or PS-240V external power supply and power cord.
2. • For the A1, verify that the EXTERNAL POWER indicator is
lit.
• For the A3, verify that the
BATTERY CHARGING/AC SOURCE
indicator is lit.
3. Charge the battery for at least 8 hours.
The battery can require a complete discharge/charge cycle to restore its normal capacity, depending on its previous usage.
4. To check for a full charge, perform the procedure described in “Battery Performance Test” on page 12.

The the A1 and A3 mono monitors are specified to typically operate on battery power for a minimum of 4 hours, at 25°C, with no printing, and one NiBP measurement every 15 minutes. The A3 color monitor is specified to typically operate on battery power for a minimum of 3 hours, at 25°C, with no printing, and one NiBP measurement every 15 minutes. Before performing this test, ensure that the battery is fully charged (see “Battery Charge”).
1. Connect the Nellcor Puritan Bennett SRC-2 pulse oximeter tester to the monitor via the M4787A sensor cable.
2. Connect the NiBP simulator to the monitor via the M3918A tubing.
3. Set the SRC-2 switches as follows:
SWITCH POSITION

12. If monitor passes this test, immediately recharge the battery. (See “Battery Charge” on page 11).
1. Connect the monitor to an AC power source. For the A1, use the PS-120V or PS-240V power supply and power cord. For the A3, use the proper power cord supplied.
2. • For the A1, verify that the EXTERNAL POWER indicator is
lit.
• For the A3, verify that the
BATTERY CHARGING/AC SOURCE
indicator is lit.
3. Do not connect any input cables to the monitor.
4. Observe the monitor front panel. With the monitor off, press the ON/
STANDBY button . The monitor must perform the following sequence:
a. The A1 emits a beep.
The A3 emits three consecutively higher pitched beeps.
b. A few seconds later, the display backlight illuminates, but the display is
blank.
c. The version numbers of the boot and operational software display in the
lower left corner of the display.
d. A beep signals the end of the power-on self-test. Power-on self-test takes
approximately 10 seconds to complete.
e. Upon successful completion of the power-on self-test, the display is in
normal monitoring screen configuration. No vital-sign numeric values or waveforms are displayed.
