Equipment overview Example 2: CICA goes offline and stops collecting full disclosure data on BED1. This causes CICB to begin collecting full disclosure data on BED1. NOTE The master CIC Pro center detects CICA going offline, and switches full disclosure data collection over to CICB, within a minute of the offline event. CICA comes back online after exceeding the Offline Storage setting time frame.
Page 44
Equipment overview NOTE Combo mode is stopped (breaking Combo mode) by discharging either bed. If this happens, full disclosure data collection continues on the undischarged bed, and the data is stored under the undischarged bed name. NOTE If the hardwired bed is discharged, '*' would again be included in the name. The following are Combo mode examples: Combo mode Example 1: A hardwired bed BED is admitted and full disclosure data is collected.

Service interfaces Introduction Service interfaces provide several advanced and specialized functions for configuring, troubleshooting, and performing checkout procedures on the CIC Pro center. Access methods The CIC Pro center provides both direct and network access methods to access the service interfaces. Direct access method The direct access method uses locally connected displays, keyboards, and mice to access multiple CIC Pro center functionality.
Service interfaces Operating modes Overview Normally, the CIC Pro center starts up in the clinical application mode. To switch to administrator mode, refer to Administrator mode access on page 4-3. CAUTION During shutdown or while in administrator mode, beds displayed by the CIC Pro center will be unmonitored if not displayed by a different CIC Pro center.
Service interfaces Service interface access Overview WARNING CIC Pro center service interfaces are intended for use only by properly trained, qualified personnel. Do not “experiment” with the service utilities, or use them in any way other than shown in this manual.
Service interfaces The password for the Webmin logon can be changed from the default at the first logon. However, the password can only be reset by GE personnel who are physically at the site, or remotely if the device is Insite ExC (Remote) connected.

A site survey with all network design, installation, and testing must be completed and documented prior to equipment installation. The site survey is completed by authorized GE personnel. Service PC A PC is required for licensing. This can be a desktop or a laptop computer.
Installation Format a USB memory stick To activate licenses with a USB memory stick, you need an NTFS formatted USB memory stick containing the <Serial Number of CIC Pro center>.txt license file, matching the serial number of your CIC Pro center. Insert the blank USB memory stick into one of the service PC’s USB ports.
When installing a CIC Pro center into a care unit, you need to verify that the CIC Pro center’s platform and software are compatible with all devices on the MC and IX network. Notify the biomedical staff if any non-GE equipment is installed on the MC and IX network.

NOTE This part is not stocked by GE service and can be purchased from your local store. When purchasing from a retail supplier, use the specification number on the battery to ensure an equivalent battery is purchased.
GE recommends the use of an Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS) with the CIC Pro center. If a UPS is not used, improper shutdowns of the system could result in the event of a power outage and cause a lengthy disk scan procedure when the unit reboots.
(within a few seconds) used by the existing GE devices on the CARESCAPE Network. NOTE There are two internal fans. Either can be replaced independently.
To prevent potential time synchronization issues, you should set the new device’s time to be as close as possible to the time (within a few seconds) used by the existing GE devices on the CARESCAPE Network. NOTE Desktop units only.
Field replaceable units (FRUs) Re-assemble the cover on page 9-24. Perform the following checkout procedures: Perform Ground continuity test on page 10-6. Perform Ground (earth) wire leakage current test on page 10-7. Perform Enclosure leakage current test on page 10-8.
To make sure the CIC Pro center hardware remains in proper operational and functional order, a proper maintenance schedule must be observed. GE recommends that maintenance be performed by service personnel upon installation, every 12 months after original installation, and each time the unit is serviced.
Preventive maintenance Visual inspection General condition: Carefully inspect the equipment for physical damage to the case, the display screen, and the controls.
