Writer.
n This device is intended for use under the direct supervision of a
licensed health care practitioner.
n This device is not intended for home use.
n Federal law restricts this device to be sold by or on the order of a
physician.
n Contact GE Medical Systems Information Technologies for
information before connecting any device to the equipment that is
not recommended in this manual.
n Parts and accessories used must meet the requirements of the
applicable IEC 601 series safety standards, and/or the system
configuration must meet the requirements of the IEC 60601-1-1
medical electrical systems standard.
n Periodically, and whenever the integrity of the device is in doubt, test
all functions.
n The use of ACCESSORY equipment not complying with the
equivalent safety requirements of this equipment may lead to a
reduced level of safety of the resulting system. Consideration
relating to the choice shall include:
u use of the accessory in the PATIENT VICINITY; and
u evidence that the safety certification of the ACCESSORY has
been performed in accordance to the appropriate IEC 60601-1
and/or IEC 60601-1-1 harmonized national standard.
n If the installation of the equipment, in the USA, will use 240V rather
than 120V, the source must be a center-tapped, 240V, single-phase
circuit.

Equipment Overview: Description of Equipment
Description of Equipment
PRN 50-M and PRN 50 Digital Writers
The PRN 50-M and PRN 50 Digital Writers thermally record patient
data on a paper strip. You can graph any parameter or trace you monitor
on a Solar 7000/8000/8000M monitor, Eagle 4000 monitor, Centralscope,
or CIC system on the the writer. Graphs are initiated automatically
when an alarm activates, or you can manually initiate a graph from a
monitor.
The writer provides a high-resolution recording of patient waveform
data, including alphanumeric text relating to the waveform data. A
microprocessor-driven thermal print head translates digitized data
directly into graphic forms on the strip chart. Up to four real-time
waveforms from the monitor screen may be graphed simultaneously. The
writer also generates printouts of stored information, including trended
parameters, arrhythmia information, and cardiac calculations,
pulmonary calculations, and dose calculations.
The paper drive motor is the only moving part on the PRN 50-M. This
motor operates at eight different speeds—0.1, 0.5, 1, 5, 10, 12.5, 25, and
50 mm/s.

M-Port/AutoPort Compatibility
1. An M-Port Host/Device must be connected to an M-port Device/Host.
2. If an AutoPort Host/Device is to be connected to an M-Port Device/
Host, the AutoPort Host/Device must be adapted to an M-Port pin
out by using the AutoPort to M-Port Adapter.
127(
Whether a host or device implements an M-Port or an AutoPort
interface can be determined by:
1. M-Port Host/Device products have any or all of the following:
a. Have the word ‘M-Port’ or ‘M#’ e.g., ‘M1’, ‘M2’, ‘M3’; for
the connector name on the label above the RJ-45.
b. Have the text for the name of the RJ-45 connector in a
yellow field.
c. Have a product name that ends in an ‘M’, e.g., Solar
8000M, PRN 50-M, Respiratory Mechanics-M.
2. AutoPort Host/Device products do not have any of the above.
