6. Connect External Equipment
See the overview of input and output connections in section 2.4. Please consult the
Instructions for Use of the external equipment for further information. To avoid risk of
electrical shock only connect ancillary equipment approved as medical electrical equipment
and always ensure that the displaying unit is in STANDBY mode (orange light in power button),
turned OFF or disconnected (no light in power button) when connecting the equipment.
6.1. Connecting to an External Monitor
If needed, connect an external monitor to one of the video out ports (3G-SDI or DVI-D)
located on the back of the displaying unit (see section 2.4 for video out port locations).
Use a medical grade monitor with resolution of at least 1920x1080, 60 frames per second (fps)
and a monitor size of at least 27" with DVI and/or 3G-SDI input(s). The recommended color
space is sRGB.
•
If connection is established via 3G-SDI the external monitor will mirror the complete
user interface shown on the screen of the displaying unit.
If connection is established via DVI-D, the image shown on the external monitor will
•
always show the Live View image and the following information:
•
Stopwatch
•
Current procedure folder
videos made in the current procedure
•
Zoom icon
function is active (must be enabled in General settings (see section 5.8.)
•
ARC icon
•
Live view image
•
Date and time
•
When ending a procedure, the Timestamp table will appear
•
When recording a video, the elapsed recording time next to a recording icon
will show in the upper right corner
6.2. Connecting USB Flash Drives
If needed, connect an external USB flash drive to the USB ports on the front or back of the
displaying unit (see section 2.4 for USB port locations).
6.3. Connecting to an External Medical Imaging Recorder
If needed, connect an external medical imaging recorder to one of the video out ports (3G-
SDI or DVI-D) located on the back of the displaying unit.
It is also possible to transfer trigger signals to the imaging recorder via the Trigger out ports
A, B (3.5 mm jack), C or D (D-SUB9) located on the back of the displaying unit. See section 5.9
for instructions on how to view and reconfigure which functions are transmitted via the
Trigger out ports.
Connecting video output to a medical imaging recorder:
•
Connect a DVI-D or 3G-SDI cable to video output group 2 on the back of the displaying
unit. See section 2.4 for Video out port locations.
•
Connect the other end of the DVI-D or 3G-SDI cable to the corresponding video-in port
on the medical imaging recorder.
Connecting trigger output to a medical imaging recorder:
•
Connect a 3.5 mm jack or D-SUB9 cable to the trigger output channel you wish to use (A,
B, C or D). See section 2.4 for Trigger out port locations.
•
Connect the other end of the cable to the corresponding trigger input port on the
medical imaging recorder.
NOTE: It is important that the assigned function on the trigger output port of the displaying
unit matches the function assigned to the connected input port of the medical imaging
recorder.
(If enabled in General settings, see section 5.8.)
