INTRODUCTION
This manual provides information on the correct use of the Connectivity Engine (MDC-2). It is up
to the user to ensure that any applicable regulations regarding installation and operation of the
MDC-2 are observed, and the proper power line cord is used (if different than the North American
cord supplied).
Manufacturer’s Responsibility
The manufacturer of this equipment is responsible for the effects on safety, reliability, and perfor-
mance of the equipment only if:
• Assembly operations, adjustments, or repairs are carried out by persons authorized
by the manufacturer
• The electrical installation complies with all applicable regulations
• The equipment is used in accordance with the instructions in this manual
Incorrect operation or failure of the user to maintain the MDC-2 in accordance with proper mainte-
nance procedures relieves the manufacturer or his agent from all responsibility for consequent non-
compliance, damage, or injury.
This manual explains how to use the MDC-2 and MDA-1. Important safety information is located
throughout the manual where appropriate. READ THE ENTIRE SAFETY INFORMATION SECTION BEFORE
USING THE MDC-2.
Disposal
Disposal of devices or consumables must be done in accordance with local, state, and federal laws
and regulations.
WEEE Directive 2002/96/EC.- Do not dispose of WEEE products in general waste. At the end of life
of product contact Cerner Corporation for return instructions.

MDC-2 Operator’s Manual 3
SAFETY
Electrical
The MDC-2 is intended to be operated from a mains power source of nominally 100 to 230V~,
47 to 63 Hz and Maximum AC Power consumption: 145 VA.
Warning: The Cerner Connectivity Engine (MDC-2) is only approved for use with a Cerner
Medical Device Adapter (MDA-1).
WARNING: To prevent electrical hazards to all personnel, this device must be properly ground-
ed. Connect the device only to a three-wire, grounded, hospital grade receptacle. The three-conduc-
tor plug must be inserted into a properly wired three-wire receptacle; if a three-wire receptacle is not
available, a qualied electrician must install one in accordance with the governing electric code.
WARNING: Do not under any circumstances remove grounding conductor from the power plug.
WARNING: The hospital-grade power cable supplied with this equipment provides for this
protection. Do not attempt to defeat this protection by modifying the cable or by using ungrounded
adapters or extension cables. The power cord and plug must be intact and undamaged. It is the
user’s responsibility to use the proper power cord for the country where the MDC-2 is being used.
WARNING: Do not connect to an electrical outlet controlled by a wall switch or dimmer.
WARNING: If there is any doubt about the integrity of the protective ground conductor
arrangement, do not operate the MDC-2 until the AC power source protective conductor is fully
functional.
WARNING: Do not place the MDC-2 in any position that may cause it to fall on the patient. Do
not lift the MDC-2 by the power supply cord or other cables.
WARNING: Electric shock hazard! Do not remove covers or panels. Refer service to qualied
service personnel.
WARNING: To avoid electrical shock, disconnect the MDC-2 from its power source before
changing fuses. Replace fuses only with same type and rating T1.6A 250V (Metric 5x20mm).
WARNING: Do not clean MDC-2 while it is on and/or plugged into a power source.

WARNING: If unit is accidentally wet, discontinue use until dry and then test unit for proper
operation before reuse on a patient.
WARNING: When attached to other devices, insure that the total chassis leakage currents of
all units do not exceed 300 µA.
CAUTION: The MDC-2 is to be used on a at surface only.
CAUTION: The use of Accessory equipment not complying with the equivalent safety require-
ment of this equipment may lead to a reduced level of safety of the resulting system. Consideration
relating to the choice shall include;
• Use of the Accessory in the patient vicinity.
• Evidence that the safety certication of the Accessory has been performed in accordance to the
appropriate IEC 60601-1 and/or IEC 60601-1-1 harmonized national standard.
Explosion
DANGER: Explosion hazard! Do not use this equipment in the presence of ammable anesthetics
or other ammable substance in combination with air, oxygen-enriched environment or nitrous oxide.
EMC
This equipment has been certied to be protected to emissions and immunity according to the EMC
and R&TTE Directives.
WARNING: In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference in which case
the user may be required to take adequate measures.
Radio Communication
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two condi-
tions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interfer-
ence received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
It has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment gener-
ates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this
equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will

MDC-2 Operator’s Manual 5
be required to correct the interference at his or her own expense. It operates on a non-interference
basis with other devices operating at this frequency. Any change or modication not expressly
approved by Cardiopulmonary Corp. could void the user’s authority to operate the device.
This device also meets the requirements of the Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment
Regulations. Cet appareil numérique de la Classe A respecte toutes les exigencies du Reglement
dur le Matériel Brouilleur du Canada.

DESCRIPTION
The Connectivity Engine (MDC-2) and Medical Device Adaptor (MDA-1) enable data transfer
from a medical device to the Hospital Information System (HIS). The MDC-2 provides a 3.5”
LCD QVGA color touchscreen display. The display screen is used to indicate device link status,
and network link status. The MDC-2 communicates to the HIS via a 10/100 physical network
connection or wirelessly using an 802.11 a/b/g compliant radio. The MDC-2 will be located
within 5 meters/16.4 feet of any fixed or portable medical device. The MDC-2 is capable of
connecting up to eight medical devices using USB cabling to the MDA-1 connector. The MDA-1
is powered through the USB connection to the MDC-2. The MDA-1 is mounted to the medical
device and electrically connected to the medical device serial port.
CAUTION: The MDC-2 is to be used on a at surface only.
Safety Approved (in accordance with UL-60601-1 2nd edition)
Degree of protection
against ingress of water: IPX0
Methods of Maintenance No sterilization or disinfecting required.
and Cleaning: See page 14
Degree of safety of application: Equipment not suitable for use in the presence of a
flammable anesthetic mixture with air, or with oxygen
or nitrous oxide.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
When necessary, clean the exterior surfaces of the device with a cloth or swab dampened with
a warm water and mild detergent solution. Do not allow liquids to enter the interior of the
instrument.
CAUTION:
• Do not autoclave, pressure sterilize, or gas sterilize the unit.
• Do not soak or immerse in any liquid.
• Use cleaning solution sparingly. Excessive solution can flow into the unit and cause damage to
internal components.
• Do not touch, press or rub the display and covers with abrasive cleaning compounds, instru-
ments, brushes, rough surface materials, or bring them into contact with anything that could
scratch the display or the covers.
• Do not use petroleum based or acetones solutions, or other harsh solvents, to clean the MDC-2.
Cables
Do not autoclave the cables. Wipe the cables using a mild detergent solution. Never submerge the
cables in any liquid or allow liquids to enter the electrical connections.
Preventive Maintenance
Always check the device for irregularities and:
• Make sure cables are intact.
• Device is on a flat surface
• Power light is ON
NOTE: There are no user serviceable items contained in the MDC-2 and MDA-1.
