AC and DC (Battery) Operation
You should only use Philips 40488A 12 Volt sealed lead-acid batteries
obtained from Philips Medical Systems for use with the Philips M1205A
V24CT. Use of other camcorder-type batteries could result in inaccurate
estimates of battery capacity remaining or in shorter battery life.
WarningWarning
When connecting a non-medical device such as a printer to the
RS-232 Interface of V24CT, the monitor must be properly
grounded, or the non-medical device properly isolated. This must
be done in order to prevent the possibility of an electrical shock
hazard (to the user and or patient) from excessive ground
leakage currents from the non-medical device such as a printer,
and to maintain compliance with IEC 601-1-1 where applicable.
This hazard is especially prevalent when the V24CT is operated
in battery mode.
In normal AC line operation grounding the monitor is
accomplished by ensuring that the AC line cord is connected
from the monitor to a properly grounded AC receptacle.
Alternatively and additionally, proper grounding may be achieved
by attaching a safety grounded wire to the threaded safety
ground stud found on the rear of the monitor.
Isolation may be achieved by powering the printer through a
safety isolation transformer.
