Regulatory Compliance
VitalScreen CSR
This display has been tested and found to comply with IEC/EN 606 01 - 1
and IEC/EN 60601-1-2 standards, and is certified to meet medical
standard C22.2 No. 601.1-M1990 (C US Mark).
The medical display, in addition to meeting medical requirements,
has been tested and found to comply with the limits for Federal
Communications Commission ( FCC) Class B computing devices in
a typically configured system since many medical offices are located in
residential areas. It is the system integrator’s re sponsibility to test and
ensure that the entire system complies wi th applicable electromagnetic
compatibility (EMC) laws.
Planar Systems, Inc. has made great efforts to support the medical
device industry, in particular, medical device manufacturers and medical
device system integrators. We offer state-of-the-art color displays that are
compliant with worldwide accepted medical device safety standards, and
for the European market, CE-marked displays based on compliance with
counsel directive 93/42/EEC—commonly referred to as the Medical Device
Directive (MDD). The following summarizes our qualification of these
displays as it relates to compliance with the MDD.
iii
The European Medical Device Directive requires that the intended use
of the device be defined. The intended use of these displays is “to display
alphanumeric, graphic, and image data as inputted from any type of
medical device.” These displays do not provide a measurement function
in any way, and it is the device and systems manufactur er’s responsibility
to verify its function in the integrated device or system.
The display was classified as required by the MDD according to Annex IX
of the directive and the medical device (MEDDEV) guidance available
at the time of classification. Because the display uses electrical energy
and has no direct patient connections andby itselfno medical utility,
the display is classified according to Rule 12 as an MDD Class I devicecomponent or ac c e s s o ry. The MDD stat es t h a t m anufa c tu r ers of Cla s s I
medical devices or acces sories shall satisfy the r equirements in regard
to design and manufacturing controls, that is, the applicable assessment
route to be used for CE-marking under the MDD, and it shall carry
the CE mark according to Annex XII of the directive, with no notified
body annotation.
The applicable safety standards for an MDD Class I display are
IEC/EN 60601-1:1900 along with Amendments 1 and 2. To help the
medical device designer evaluate the suitability of these displays,
Planar has also conducted EMC testing to I EC 60601-1-2 a s it can
be applied. The display with its power supply alone does not represent
a functional medical device. Hence, Planar configured a minimal
operating system to exercise the display. The resulting data are
made available to interested parti es.
The data are informative data, not certification data. Certification
data must be o btain ed by the device or system integrator according
to Article 12 of the MDD titled “Particular procedure for systems and
procedure packs.” Paragraph 2 clearly outli nes the device or system
integrator’s respons ibility in this matter.

In summary, Planar Systems, Inc. is CE-marking these di splays
under the Medical Device Directive, which establishes compliance to
the basic medical safety standards. However, EMC compliance can
only be accomplishe d in the configur ed medical devic e or syst em and
is the responsibility of the device or system manufacturer. Planar has
the necessary documentation such as IEC 60601-1 notified body and
other third-party test reports and certifications, a risk/hazard analysis,
an essential requ irements checklist, and the Planar International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) declaration of co nformity.
Planar Systems, Inc., located in Beaverton, Oregon, USA, is the
manufacturer of these displays in the meaning of the directive.
As required by the MDD in Article 14, Planar Systems, Inc., not
residing in the European Economic Area (EEA), has a European
representative, Planar Systems, Inc.Espoo, Finland.
In the opinion of Planar Systems, Inc. registration requir e d to put this
device into commerce is the responsibility of the medical device/system
manufacturer, and Planar sup ports this requirement by providin g a
European Commission (EC) declaration of conformity. If Planar supplies
a display to an end user, rather than a device manufacturer, it is the end
user’s responsibility to ensure continued compliance with the MDD of
the system in which the display is integrated.
For vigilance reporting as required under Article 10 of the MDD,
Planar Systems, Inc. will provide any information requested by
competent authority to support any reported incident investigation
by such an authority.

The VitalScreen 17.4" Display
The architecture of the VitalScreen CSR and VitalScreen CR display s
incorporate an active matrix liquid-crystal display (AMLCD) panel that
produces a bright, high-contrast image with low radiation emission.
This technology greatly reduces the radiation-related health concerns
associ ated with cathode-ray tube (CRT) monitors.
Each VitalScreen is a high-resolution color display designed to be
versatile and easy to use. The display accepts either analog or digital
video (DVI) input and displays most video standards from 640 x 480
(VGA standard) to 1280 x 102 4 (SXGA standard). The controls located
on the front panel allow you to easily adjust the display parameters
using onscreen display (OSD) menus.
The digital video input is a singl e -link, transition minimized differential
signaling (TMDS) digital visual interface (DVI), and is in compliance
with the Digital Display Working Group (DDWG) DVI standard. This
interface produces the sharpest display image possible with little need
for adjustment. The setup is Plug and Play.
Each display has a built-in mounting platform that conforms to the
Video Elec tronics Standards Associatio n (VESA) mounting sta ndar d.
1
This configuration allows the display to be mounted in a variety of
ways, such as on a wall bracket or articulated swing arm. An a lternate
configuration with a desk stand is also available for easy use on flat
work surfaces.
Both displays have features making them ideal for hospital applications.
The housing is an acrylic cover that protects the display from bumps,
falls, collisions, and even everyday cleaning. In addition, Planar offers
configuration management to ensure that you receive a consistent and
predictable product.
The Planar 17.4" display series, for the first time, consists of these two
dist inct v er s ions: Vita lScre e n C SR and Vital S creen CR. B o th disp l ays
have been designed for hospital use, but they have several differences.

VitalScreen CSR
This display has been designed, tested, and certified for use within
the patient vicinity. It has lower electric discharge, thus reducing
the likelihood of electric shock. The display is certified to UL-2601,
IEC 60601-1, an d other representatives of the most stringent electric
discharge certifications available. In addition, the interface buttons on
the front panel are sealed by a plastic membran e , allowing simpler and
safer cleaning. The display also meets the liquid/particle ingress
certifications, IPX-1.
VitalScreen CR
This display has been designed for hospital use outside the patient
vicinity. It is not certified UL-2601 or IEC 60601-1. In addition, the
interface buttons are not sealed on the front panel, and the display
does not meet IPX-1 standards.
The VitalScreen CR display has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class B digital device pursuant to Part 15 of FCC rules.
The interface buttons on the VitalScreen CR display are not sealed
and can be harmed if exposed to liquids. Use caution when cleaning
near the front panel.
Distinguishing the Displa ys
Many of the features and benefits that differentiate the VitalScr een CSR
and VitalScreen CR displ ays are not visually apparent. The simplest way
to identify your Pl anar display is to check the interface buttons on the
front panel.
Note these differences for the interface buttons:
• Interface buttons on the front panel of the VitalSc reen CSR display
(left) are sealed by a plastic membrane.
• Interface buttons on the front panel of the VitalScreen CR display
(right) are not sealed.
The display on the cover of this manual is a VitalScreen CSR. A plastic
membrane seals the interface buttons.

Troubleshooting
PROBLEM: Display is unclear and unstable
This p rocedure is for users of an alog VGA.
This LCD device comes pre-adjusted with standard VGA timing. Due to
output differenc es amon g various VGA cards, you may i nitia lly experien ce
an unclear and unstable display when a new display mode or new VGA
card is detected. To correct the problem, follow these steps:
1 Apply the Auto-Adjust option in the OSD menu for the display to
adjust automatically to the video signal.
2 If the picture remains unstable, consider manual adjustment of the
clock and phase (in the OSD menu of the display). These adjustments
are not recommended for nontechnical users.
3 If the system still does not function properly, get help from technical
support at your system provid er .
PROBLEM: No image appears on LCD screen
If no image appears on the LCD screen , fol low these steps:
1
Make sure the power indicator on the display is illuminated, all
connections are secure, and the system is running on a supported
video timing mode.
2 If the power LED is not illuminated, make sure the AC power
connector is securely connected. If the AC adapter has an LED,
verify that the LED is illuminated. If it is not, contact your dealer
for assistance.
3 Turn the display off and then turn it back on.
4 Connect your system to another Planar 17.4 display, if one is available.
If the system functions properly with the alternate d isplay but not
with the original display, and the original display’s power LED is
blinking, the output timing of the computer’s video board may be out
of the display’s synchronous range. Change to an al ternate mode
(1280 x 1024, or less), or connect to an al ternate video source and
repeat steps 1 and 2.
5 Ensure that the computer’s video port is enabled (DVI or VGA).
This is a function of the video board in the u ser computer system.
See your system’s video board documentation for instructions on
how to enable the video port.
6 If the system does not function with either display, get hel p from
technical support at your system provider.
