AT-102 ECG Recorder Service Handbook
Contents
Intended Use The AT-102 is a 12-channel ECG device used for the recording, analysis and evaluation of ECG Recordings. Recordings made with the AT-102 can be used as a diagnostic aid for heart function and heart conditions. The AT-102 is designed for indoor use and can be used for all patients of both sexes, all races, and all ages.
Physician`s Responsibility The AT-102 ECG Unit is provided for the exclusive use of qualified physicians or personnel under their direct supervision. The numerical and graphical results and any interpretation derived from a recording must be examined with respect to the patient`s overall clinical condition. Patient preparation and the general recorded data quality, which could affect the report data accuracy, must also be taken into account. It is the responsibility of the physician to make the diagnosis or to obtain expert opinion on the results, and to institute correct treatment if indicated.
FEDERAL LAW IN THE USA RESTRICTS THIS DEVICE TO SALE BY OR ON THE ORDER OF A PHYSICIAN

Safety Notices
Operational Precautions Before using the unit, ensure that an introduction regarding the unit functions and the safety precautions has been provided by a product representative. The guidelines for patient electrode placement are provided as an overview only. They are not a substitute for medical expertise. IEC 601-1-1 states that the patient must remain at least 1.5 metres clear of the AT-102. When this is not possible an isolation transformer must be installed. It must be ensured that neither the patient nor the electrodes (including the neutral electrode) come into contact with other persons or conducting objects (even if these are earthed). This unit is CF classified and defibrillation protected when the original patient cable is used. However, as a safety precaution when possible, remove electrodes before defibrillation. Do not touch the unit casing during defibrillation. If the patient cable should become defective after defibrillation, lead-off is displayed and an acoustic alarm given. Do not operate the unit if the earth connection is suspect or if the mains lead is damaged or suspected of being damaged. This product is not designed for sterile use. This product is not designed for outdoor use. Do not use this unit in areas where there is any danger of explosion or in the presence of flammable gases such as anaesthetic agents. Do not operate the unit if the earth connection is suspect or if the mains lead is damaged or suspected of being damaged. There is no danger when using the ECG unit for a patient with a pacemaker fitted. The LCD screen assembly is heavy and can cause injury if closed unintentionally. Ensure fingers are kept clear. Surface temperature of applied parts must not exceed 41o. If the display is damaged, a leakage of fluid may occur. do not inhale the vapour from this fluid and avoid contact with mouth and skin. if contact is made, clean contaminated area immediately with fresh water.

Safety Notices
Precautions for Operation with other Devices Use only accessories and other parts recommended or supplied by SCHILLER AG. Use of other than recommended or supplied parts may result in injury, inaccurate information and/or damage to the unit. Externally connected units must use the same common earth. Externally connected units must use an original SCHILLER interface cable. If several units are coupled, there is a danger of summation of leakage currents. When two or more units are coupled together, an isolation transformer must be used in the mains supply. The AT-102 complies with EMC regulations for medical products which affords protection against emissions and electrical interference. However, special care must be exercised when the unit is used with high frequency equipment. There is no danger when using the ECG unit simultaneously with electrical stimulation equipment. However, the stimulation units should only be used at a sufficient distance from the electrodes. In case of doubt, the patient should be disconnected from the recorder. To avoid possible interference from the Ergometer when carrying out an exercise test, it is recommended that both the AT-102 and the Ergometer are connected to the same common ground.

Safety Notices
Maintenance Precautions BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES, SWITCH THE UNIT OFF AND DISCONNECT FROM THE MAINS BY REMOVING THE MAINS PLUG. The unit is protected by double pole / neutral fusing for continued protection against the risk of fire. Replace only with the same fuse type and rating. Do not use high temperature sterilisation processes (such as autoclaving). Do not use ebeam or gamma radiation sterilisation. Do not use solvent or abrasive cleaners on either the unit or cable assemblies. Do not, under any circumstances, immerse the unit or cable assemblies in liquid.

AT-102 ECG Recorder Service Handbook
What's in this book The service philosophy for the AT-102 is fault finding to module level. The purpose of this book is to provide all the information necessary to enable the service engineer to efficiently locate and replace a faulty module. This book assumes no detailed knowledge of the AT-102 but does require that the service engineer is familiar with standard workshop practices, and to have attended an AT102 service course. The book is divided into the following chapters:
Chapter 1 - Operating Elements The purpose of this chapter is to provide an easy reference for all the main operator functions and to give a basic introduction to the AT-102 . This chapter gives details of the operator controls with the operation and function of each key briefly explained. The information in this chapter provides a background to the operating functions only. Complete operating information is provided in the SCHILLER AT-102 User Guide.
Chapter 2 - Functional Overview This chapter provides a functional overview of the AT-102 . The description is supported by functional block diagrams.
Chapter 3 - Fault Diagnosis This chapter provides a guide to locate a fault to module level. The diagnostics are presented in a logical sequence of fault finding algorithms and procedures. Illustrations are provided to support the text where needed.
Chapter 4 - Module Removal and Replacement This chapter gives an overview of the physical construction of the AT-102 with the main physical attributes of the unit briefly described. The physical description is supported by illustrations showing the internal location of all modules. Removal and replacement instructions for all removable modules are also provided in this chapter. Each procedure is autonomous with details of tools, jumper settings, adjustments and settings or special requirements that are required before and after replacement. Functional checks that must be carried out after replacing a module are also provided.

AT-102 ECG Service Handbook
Introduction Operating Philosophy Overview There are broadly four types of data display as follows Data Acquisition and ECG Recording Screen
In this screen the real-time ECG is displayed. From this screen a continuous printout can be initiated and/or an auto recording can be made. In auto mode 10 seconds of ECG data is analysed and averaged and the results given on a printout. The format and data of an auto mode printout is independent of the screen display. An auto mode recording can also be stored in the memory for later print or transmission.
Memory Screen
In this screen stored recordings can be accessed.
Patient Data Screen
Patient data entry via the keypad.
Data Entry and Setup
In these screens all system settings, resting and exercise ECG settings, and spiro settings are made.
Initiating Functions or Tasks Most functions and tasks are initiated by the 5 softkeys situated immediately below the LCD. The function of the softkeys varies according to the screen displayed and is displayed on the LCD immediately above the key itself.
During data acquisition, further dedicated function keys are provided to make an auto mode recording (START) and to stop a manual printout (STOP). The top line of the alphanumeric keypad, additionally enables direct settings of lead group, trace speed and sensitivity, filter on/off and other functions, for both the real-time display and (manual) printout.
