Safety Warnings
• Consumers with high inrush current (> 16 A) – function test
(e.g. fluorescent tubes, halogen lamps, headlights etc.) Ob-
serve the following instructions in order to prevent excessive
contact loads.
Attention!
!
The test system is protected with two 16 A FF fuses.
In order to avoid blowing the fuses, we recommend the
use of a Z850 D adapter for testing with sequence I,
making current > 16 A (Z850 B required for connection
to 32 A systems).
The measuring and test system may not be used:
• If it demonstrates visible damage
• With damaged connector cables, measuring cables or patient ports
• If it no longer functions properly
In such cases, the instrument must be removed from operation
and secured against unintentional use.

Data Security
Save your data to the inserted compact flash card or to a PC on a regular
basis in order to prevent any loss of data (see section 4.11.3).
We assume no liability for data loss.
We recommend the following PC program for data processing
and data administration: vFM/PS3 (transmission of measurement
data to a PC, documentation, administration, report generating
and deadline follow-up).
Condensed instructions for PS3 software for maintenance and equipment
management are provided on the CD ROM.
They include important instructions regarding the following topics:
• PS3 demo with additional instructions
