BIS™ Advance Monitor
If the BISx or BISx4 module is connected but no sensor is connected, an on-screen
message will indicate Connect sensor to start monitoring.
Ensure that you are using a BISx module or a BISx4 module with a Quatro, Extend or
Pediatric sensor to conduct two-channel monitoring, or a BISx4 module with a
Bilateral sensor to conduct four-channel monitoring.
Connect the appropriate sensor (reference Figure 21. Connecting the sensor to the BISx
module, below) to the PIC on the BISx module to begin sensor initialization. To insert
the sensor into the PIC, line up as shown and insert the sensor tab into the PIC sensor
connector without pausing, until an audible “click” is heard. The blank side of the
sensor tab (i.e. the side without the visible computer chip) should be facing up.
Reference Figure 21. Connecting the sensor to the BISx module, below.
