Setting Up the Sidne™ System
19 EN
• Connect video inputs, such as cameras, to an XGA port (see
Figure 11), or a S-Video port (see Figure 10).
• To take advantage of the high definition support provided by
Sidne™, connect the DVI/XGA inputs to a high definition
camera system such as the Stryker 1088 Medical Video
Camera. Ensure that the camera is set to high defini tion mode.
5. Connect any video outputs.
• Connect any video outputs, such as monitors or recording
devices, to the S-video-out port (see
Figure 10).
Note When connecting video and audio inputs and outputs,
make Sidne™ the first connecti on in the loop. For example,
rather than connect a camera directly to a monitor or
recording device, connect it directly to Sidne™. After
connecting the camera to Sidne™, co nn ect the monitor
and recording device to Sidne™.
6. Connect Sidne™ to a telephone line if desired (see Figure 9).
Note The telephone option is only available if the supplemental
telephone driver has been installed.
• Connect a telephone cord from a telephone wall jack to the
line-in jack on the rear Sidne™ console.
• Connect any external telephone to the phone jack on the rear
Sidne™ console.
7. Connect the tablet (see Setting Up the Tablet) and the headset
(see Setting Up the Headset) (see also
Figure 9).
8. Apply power to the devices connected to the Sidn e ™ co nso le .
9. Apply power to the Sidne™ console.
• For first use only: Switch the on/off switch on the rear console
panel to on (represented by the “I” symbol).
Note Turning on the unit using the on/off switch on the rear
console panel will fully power up the unit. In this case, it is
not necessary to press the on/off button on the front
console panel.
• For every subsequent use: Press the on/off button on the front
console panel to activate the system.
• After the Sidne™ system boots up, the console says,
“Greetings. One moment please. Sidne™ ready.” The Sidne™
system will review the connected operating-room devices, list
them in order, and announce any device error conditions. For
example: “Insufflator/ Camera/ VCR connected.”
