Serial Port
WARNING:
Devices connecting to the serial
port must be compliant with EN
60601-1-2, the EMC requirement
for Medical Devices. Failure to do
so could result in personal injury
or equipment damage.
WARNING:
Only connect equipment to the serial port that complies with the
relevant IEC standard; and use data cables with plastic body
connectors. Failure to do so could result in personal injury or
equipment damage.
The serial port is located underneath the incubator shell, on the back
of the controller and provides an isolated serial communication
link.
Stand Controls
Main Switch/Circuit Breaker
The main switch/circuit breaker is located on
the stand assembly for all units not equipped

system.
For units equipped with UPS systems, refer to
“UPS Electronic Module Controls” on page 8.
Stand Connectors
Convenience Outlets
An integral convenience outlet
strip is located on either the rear
or the side panel of all stand
configurations.

WARNING:
Prior to placing the infant in the incubator, pre-warm the incubator
to the temperature prescribed by the attending physician, or
according to nursing protocol. Failure to do so could result in
infant injury.
1. Pre-warm the incubator.
2. If rail accessories are mounted on the front rail, remove them.
3. Rotate the pawl latches and open the front access panel.
4. Place the infant at the center of the mattress.
5. Close the access panel and ensure the pawl latches are fully
engaged.
6. Re-install any rail accessories previously removed.
Patient Transport
With batteries fully charged, the power available from battery backup is
sufficient to maintain an Isolette® Infant Incubator, Model C2000e in
operation for 30 minutes in a 20°C ambient at a set point of 39°C in the
Air mode, without oxygen or humidity control, or additional loads
drawn from the accessory outlets.
To transport the patient:
SHOCK HAZARD:
To ensure grounding reliability, plug the AC power cord only into a
properly grounded 3-wire hospital-grade or hospital-use outlet.
Do not use extension cords. If any doubt exists as to the
grounding connection, do not operate the equipment. Personal
injury or equipment damage could occur.
1. At the display panel on the UPS electronic module, verify the
battery level.
2. If the battery is not fully charged, plug the unit into an acceptable
AC power source and ensure that the Resettable circuit breaker is
turned on.
CAUTION:
When operating in the battery back-up mode, all accessories
plugged into the stand receptacles should be powered off to
maximize battery-power usage time.
3. Turn off all accessories plugged into the stand receptacles and
remove accessories and items not in use or necessary for the patient
care during transport.
4. Secure all accessories deemed necessary for the patient care during
transport.
WARNING:
For optimum stability, always lower the incubator to its lowest
position prior to transport. Make sure that items placed on the
monitor shelf are properly secured. Failure to do so could result in
personal injury or equipment damage.
WARNING:
When raising or lowering the incubator, the operator should
ensure that both equipment and appendages are clear of the
unit’s travel path. Patient and incubator connections must also be
checked before adjusting the incubator height. Never place any
objects on top of the drawer assembly and always check before
lowering the VHA to ensure there is sufficient clearance between
the incubator and stand assembly. Do not raise or lower the unit
while installing or removing medical gas tanks from the tank
holder assembly. Failure to do so could result in personal injury or
equipment damage.
5. If equipped with VHA, adjust the stand to its lowest position prior
to transporting the patient.
WARNING:
Prior to transport, always ensure the mattress is level, i.e., not in
the Trendelenburg or Reverse Trendelenburg position.
6. Ensure the mattress is in the flat position.
WARNING:
To prevent transport interference or possible trip and fall hazards,
always properly secure the power cord. Failure to do so could
result in personal injury or equipment damage.
10. Coil up the power cord and secure it.
WARNING:
Always use two people when moving the incubator and patient
together. When moving the incubator within the same floor space,
check that the patient is secured safely in the unit and either
remove or secure all loose system components to prevent
possible patient injury or equipment damage. If the move involves
varying floor heights or a complete floor level change (i.e.,
thresholds, ramps, elevators), remove all items either not being
used or necessary for the move, lower the VHA, IV poles and
shelves to their lowest position, place all drawers in their locked
state, and remove all accessories from the front and rear rail
position.
WARNING:
Always push or pull the incubator forward or backward in a
straight line along the length of the stand (from the ends). Lateral
or angular movement (across the width) may result in inadvertent
tip-over if the wheels encounter any obstacle. Personal injury or
equipment damage could occur.
WARNING:
Do not plug the AC input supply power cord of the uninterruptible
power supply (UPS) system into any of the output receptacles on
the incubator stand. This is a safety hazard and may cause
irreparable damage to the UPS system.
12. When the transport is completed, plug the unit into an appropriate
AC source to fully charge the battery.
NOTE:
Allow at least 8 hours to fully charge the battery. Do not attempt to
transport the patient until the battery is fully charged.
WARNING:
Do not plug the AC input supply power cord of the uninterruptible
power supply (UPS) system into any of the output receptacles on
the incubator stand. This is a safety hazard and may cause
irreparable damage to the UPS system.
1. Plug the power cord of UPS electronic module into an appropriate
AC power source.
2. Verify the Resettable circuit breaker on the UPS electronic control
module is in the On (1) position.
3. Press and hold the On/Off/Test switch until AC power is activated.
4. Verify the power cord from the stand is firmly attached to the
connector under the incubator shell assembly.
CAUTION:
When operating in the battery back-up mode, all accessories
should be powered off to maximize battery-power usage time.
In the event of power failure, the main incubator functions continue
without interruption using battery back-up power. The variable height
adjustable (VHA) stand is inoperable during power outages.
