manufacturer and d is the recommended separation 
distance in metres (m).

determined by an electromagnetic site survey, a

Interference may occur in the vicinity of equipment

NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.  
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption 
and reflection from structures, objects and people. 
a Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land 
mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicated theoretically 
with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site 
survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Cardiocap/5 is used 
exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Cardiocap/5 should be observed to verify normal 
operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or 
relocating the Cardiocap/5. 
b Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.

Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications 
equipment and the Cardiocap/5. 
The Cardiocap/5 is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF 
disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the Cardiocap/5 can help prevent 
electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF 
communications equipment (transmitters) and the Cardiocap/5 as recommended below, according to the 
maximum output power of the communications equipment.

Planned Maintenance 
3. PLANNED MAINTENANCE 
3.1 Introduction 
These instructions include procedures for planned maintenance (PM) of the Datex-Ohmeda 
Cardiocap/5 monitor. Performance of planned maintenance procedures is recommended once each 
year after installation of the monitor.  
These instructions are for the maximum functional configuration of the monitor. Perform the 
procedures in order and skip items that do not correspond with the configuration of your monitor. 
Complete instructions on how to perform complex procedures are included in the Service Procedures 
chapter later in this manual. 
3.1.1 Using the Planned Maintenance Form 
A Planned Maintenance Form is included at the end of this chapter. Complete this “checklist” as you 
perform the maintenance procedures.
