Using the Remote Alarm Cable
Use the Remote Alarm Cable (P/N 19103-001) to connect the LTV ® ventilator to third party, single or
dual tone remote alarm systems requiring a normally closed input signal terminated with a 51K ohm
series resistor. Devices connected to the Patient Assist port must be IEC 60601-1-1 certified.
See Chapter 10 - Extended Features, Alarm Operations, for instructions on setting the Patient
Assist Port output signal for use with single or dual tone remote alarm systems.
Because the ventilator does not include an internal series resistor in the Patient Assist output, a
special cable has been designed which incorporates the resistor into the cable assembly itself. The
series resistor allows the remote alarm to detect and report both ventilator alarms and a disconnected
remote alarm cable.
Do not apply more than 120 Volts AC (VAC) to a remote alarm when it is connected to the ventilator.
CAUTION
Remote Alarm – Always verify that the remote alarm properly reports the LTV ® ventilator alarms
before use.
Remote Alarm – Always follow the remote alarm manufacturer’s usage and maintenance
requirements to guarantee proper function of the device.
ATTENTION
Alarme à distance – Assurez-vous toujours que l’alarme à distance indique de façon adéquate les
alarmes du ventilateur LTV ® avant d’utiliser le ventilateur.
Alarme à distance – Suivez toujours les exigences d’utilisation et d’entretien du fabricant de l’alarme
à distance afin d’assurer le fonctionnement adéquat de l’appareil.
To connect the ventilator to the remote alarm:
1) Plug the cable’s modular jack into the Patient Assist port on the side of the ventilator.
2) If the remote alarm has a female BNC plug, connect the cable directly to the remote alarm's input
cable or connector and twist to secure.
